TopicNo One Talking About The Straight Pride Parade Today?

The entire point of a gay pride rally is to tell homophobs and groups that try to turn gay people straight to fuck off that they are proud of who they are. While there is nothing "wrong" with a straight pride parade homosexuals have faced things a straight person can't even fathom, especially back in the 50s when homosexuality was deemed a mental illness. That's right in the 50s if they found out you were gay they would throw your ass in a mental institution fun times :D. Being straight was never deemed a problem throughout the history of all humans.

I mean starting at age 7 or 8 (heavy topic spoiler coming, warning you here) I ended up severely depressed to due abuse and medicated for it by 9. So yeah unfortunately I can easily see with the exchange/ease of information now how someone in a really crappy situation might do that at a young age. Especially because young children lack the ability to really reason things out like even teens do. Unfortunately even children can end up in situations they think there's no way out of and it's never going to get better.

While this may be true most with depression do wait quite a while to kill themselves. I mean sucide is rarely wake up one day and just decide to do it, it's more of a long term process.

Why would I pay a $4 delivery fee for a place that's about a half mile away? And why does a "small order" necessitate a $2 fee?

I just wanted some Taco Bell while my car isn't working, but after all the fees and the tip, it almost triples the price of my order.

You realize most food delivery adds charges on top right?

If you order a pizza and have them bring it to you almost every pizza place will charge you $3-4 on top of what the food would have cost if you went to the place and picked it up. Acting like "Damn you fast food places you are ripping me off!" When every other place does it and has done it for in some cases decades is ridiculous.

We just have more food delivery options than ever before, 20 years ago the only places that delivered to your door usually were Pizza and Chinese Food.

I think most of his political ideas are the opposite of mine since I am pro-death penalty.

I'm actually pro-death option on any jail sentence over 5 years (if you are gonna lock someone up that long, they should have the option of being put to death instead).

I'm pro abortion as well (I'm all for death in all it's forms pretty much).

I'm pro universal health care though (even though it means less deaths, I'm actually anti-suffering).
I'm pro free education as well, as long as you keep your grades up of course.

If you wanna boil it all down, i'm pro making everyone alive as happy as possible, while ensuring any new lives are supported and positive as well. I believe we should share our wealth much more evenly and ensure everyone has the best chance at happiness possible. We should focus on the people we have already here, and limit new people until the ones that exist all have decent lives/opportunities.

Finally I think we need to mostly close our borders since we can't control what happens in other parts of the world. Focus on this country first, get our crap together, and then start bringing new people (as babies, or immigrants) in after that.

The typical pro-death political group...

Does classic have the enhanced race models and other visual improvements or is it straight up vanilla vanilla


My understanding is it's classic emulation forked from 8.2. But it's all the same old vanilla models and textures and everything upscaled to 4k.

Edit: Also they're staggering release of content, especially raids. I think they plan to have everything out in about a year or so?

With how much time you spend leveling up and acquiring gear attunements to the raid zones etc.. Only the most die hard players will be ready to raid within a few weeks.

This game has so much more busy work that you have to do to get ready to raid, farming mats making sure you can actually go into the raid zone making sure your gear is good meaning farming 5 man dungeons for weeks etc... Even when you are ready to play MC you then have to farm that raid zone for months since most bosses back then dropped a few pieces of gear for a 40 man raid.

It could be a top 10 greatest game all time and if you go on the forums and read about it from the posts there you will find people bitching about it. Anyways this game is really simple if you enjoyed Symphony of the Night this game feels like Symphony of the Night but with a few new mechanics and twists it's a great game period.

I just find it funny that someone would completely disregard the thousands of reviews on Steam but then give so much credence to the discussion section of Steam. Like the thousands of people that reviewed the game were wrong but the 10-20 people bitching on the Steam discussion area are completely right.

Honestly the US should close it's borders pretty soon, and concentrate on controlling it's own population. Just because something was ok in the past, does not mean it still is now.

Population control should be a center concern for every nation, and that starts with closing borders and only allowing as many people into a country, as leave to another.

Global warming etc, all show that while the world can support an even larger population then we have now, it will not be healthy for the planet, and is not sustainable long term. This might change in the future with technology, but for now, the focus should be to curtail population growl and try to actually reduce the total population of the world if possible over the next 50 years.

So yeah, it doesn't really matter what the Statue of Liberty says at this point, it's a new age.


Globally population growth is leveling off as more and more countries face lower birth mortality rates they tend to try to have less children and experts think human populations will actually decrease dramatically in coming decades due to sub replacement fertility rates.

Meanwhile in the US many metro areas are facing major challenges due to urban decay and dropping population numbers. Detroit, St Louis, Buffalo, and Pittsburgh are just a few examples.

Immigrants wanting to work and start families benefits and enriches our country in just about every way imaginable.

Nah, every immigrant that comes here wants to leech off the system! I know that because Trump said it!
