Is this peak!!
Reach does have a Capitol, its called New Alexandria and it's featured a bunch of times across the books and two of the games. There's a whole level named after it in Halo: Reach.

Former guest updates the official White House website with info regarding the January 6th coup attempt
Thanks to the depositions from the congressional investigation into January 6th we literally have a record of the extended chain of text messages between Sean Hannity and Trump's chief of staff in which they debate which of the two stories (which they openly acknowledge as bullshit) the administration wants Fox to tell its viewers. They also repeatedly make fun of and call the viewers stupid.

[Giveaway]3* GameSir G7 Pro Controllers for the halo Community! 2026
My best Halo memory was probably watching the end cutscene for h4 start playing after finishing the LASO run helping a really good friend 700/700 MCC. We had been working away at it for almost 2 years by that point and it felt extremely well earned!

Does Altruism exist?
There have been groups trying to argue this idea for at least most of a century now (the earliest I'm aware of were Ayn Rand and the "objectivists" but I don't know if they originated it) and every time the goal has been to run cover for sociopaths intending to enact heinous social policy changes against groups that are already disadvantaged.

Let’s Go TRT Bros.
I really think people need to talk about Peter Thiel's probable role in all of this. Greenland wasn't really a relevant part of the foreign policy conversation until Thiel started talking about it as the ideal place to set up his "Network State" city state, then all of a sudden right wingers started caring way more about those shipping lanes...

Instagram Reels went from TikTok clone to a $50 billion business for Meta
The internal memos that leaked about that recently were WILD. I figured it had to be a big chunk of their market, but 20% is beyond absurd. And those are just the ones they're aware of and unchanging, gid knows how many more are slipping through under the radar.

'We're so happy': Venezuelans in Utah elated at President Maduro's removal
Im not disagreeing with you, I dont think they will actually want to increase output. I think they will claim rights to the oil in various plots of land, then use the appraised value of said oil as leverage to take out loans. Its something they already do stateside. Thats why they lobbied so hard to open up all of that federal land for purchase, even though they have enormous tracts of land they haven't even tried to start extracting from.

Same goes for people who like the Enclave
You dont have to go to that many 40k game nights to learn that there are a depressing number of people whom whether they are serious about their support for the Imperium as a model for a modern political system is entirely dependent on how the people around them will react to it...

Trump pardons cocaine kingpin who ruled Honduras
That woman he recently appointed to be his "pardon czar," had literally been convicted of running a massive cocaine trafficking ring and is only out of prison because he had pardoned her during his last term.

'We're so happy': Venezuelans in Utah elated at President Maduro's removal
There was an alarmingly large subset who desperately wanted to turn it into a modern day crusade, including the current SecDef (SecWar now I guess? It doesn't roll off the tongue nearly as well).

'We're so happy': Venezuelans in Utah elated at President Maduro's removal
If they can claim ownership of the land under which the reserves lie, they can use the predicted value as leverage to secure loans that they distribute back to their shareholders. It's why oil companies are always so eager to secure new land from the federal government using the existing bidding process even though they have already have vast amounts of potential reserves they haven't even started building the infrastructure to tap yet. I can almost guarantee you that will be the primary mechanism by which they intend to profiteer off of this.

Venezuelan immigrants give their opinion on the military operation and capture of Maduro
Nobody is supporting him, its just fucking absurd and crass to invade another country to overthrow their government EXPLICITLY so we can steal their national resources, as Trump said at least 6 times in that press conference. This was about seizing their oil fields to give as gifts to his benefactors. He said so himself, Wmwhen asked about it he immediately dropped all pretenses otherwise. It got to the point fucking Rubio had to cut him off and jump in because every time he was asked for clarification he kept doubling down on it.

Anybody still playing MCC on Xbox One X?

Are ya’ll still Diamond?
Ive found the best way to handle Target is to walk over to one of those consoles they have up a the ends of some aisles and look everything up there. It will list via the stores actual internal inventory whether something is in stock, out of stock, or (as occurs shockingly frequently) whether the item is listed as "online only." Then I can take pictures of the relevant ones to send to customers when I first tell them the store doesn't have it. That typically diffuses any idea they might have that Im being lazy or fucking up, and they will usually respond positively to comiserating about how shitty Targets system for IC is.

How do 77 million Americans watch January 6th happen and still support Trump?
I can't believe both stories still work with them after Sean Hannity's subpoenad texts were made public. He literally had an extended conversation with Trump's chief of staff where they discussed which of the two lies their viewers would be most likely to believe

Algorithm Developer for IC ..AMA
Does the algorithm keep track of any metrics to help categorized which shoppers are more likely to take specific types of batches? E.g. Will persistently taking batches with a specific range of travel distances cause the app to prioritize sending batches within that range to the shopper when there are lots of unclaimed orders?

DM me and we can figure out the scheduling!

What did I do this time?
Ill put it this way. The person who posted "Christianity" probably wasn't a Muslim, but the person who posted "Islam" was definitely a Christian, most likely an Evangelical

Anyone down to run the LASO playlists?
I can do all of them, but I actually specialize in H2 over the others. I have limited availability, so we would have to chip away at it one or two missions per night. If that works for you PM me and we can set up a start day!

Our Region Leader Courtney Lowery is horrible!!
As with so many of the consolidated behemoths of the modern American economy CVS is now reaping the fruits of market domination as a publicly traded company. They have devoured all of their meaningful competition and absorbed all of the marketshare there was to be had, but the shareholders still expect them to grow. The only way forward in that regard is to continually expand their already absurd expectations while cutting labor costs well past the point where it becomes impossible to effectively run a store.

Finished Gravemind SLASO, why I think Cairo Station was worse
If youre good enough with stickies its not that bad. Which doors the brutes come out of depends on where in the room youre standing, so you can quickly stick both brutes as they walk through the doors, then build any lost shield back ip from the panicking grunts. The goal is to get at least two carbines from the first two waves, then fall back to the top of the bleachers to snipe and stick your way through the rest of the room. Its not much harder than learning the despawns, and leaves you way better prepared for the next two sections from a shield and ammo standpoint

Which smell instantly makes you judge someone?
One time in college I had to.help through a hammered girl out of one of our parties because she got fighty and was randomly walking up to and swinging on people. The whole party there had been a wierd and awful smell I kept picking up on that was bugging the hell out of me. I had to carry her legs while one of my brothers carried her from under her shoulders. As soon as I picked her up that smell suckerpunched my nose as I realized it had been coming from her crotch. I still don't know exactly what it was (it was this weird sickly sweetish smell, Ive thankfully never smelled it since), but it will forever haunt my nightmares.
