    Don’t forget Nigeria! You know, the oil rich African country with 60 million military aged (18-35) men.

      There’s so much terrible news all the time, I legitimately don’t know if we’ve threatened to attack Nigeria or not

          You’ve got to find a way to check out a little. If you try to stay in top of this shit 24/7 you’ll have a breakdown. A little time to focus on something, anything, that gives you joy is important.

              Wait till you upgrade to 7… GT sport was a decent stopgap, but 7 is so good I’m having trouble believing they can improve on it. The game is very serious but swaps can make it funny as hell. You can put the legendary 2jz Supra engine into a Yaris, a Chiron 1500 HP W16 into a Corvette, the Hellcat engine into a 1942 Willy’s jeep, there’s a lot of ridiculous fun to be had with engine swaps. You can even put a Porsche 911 engine into a VW bus. Good luck winning any races with some of these swaps, but it certainly is funny!

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
