During Trump's first term, Fox pushed back just slightly on some of the shit he was trying to pull. Turned out even Fox wasn't entirely comfortable with Trump being president. However, this backfired and pushed some viewers to OAN because Fox had spent the last couple decades training their viewers to hate anyone who even slightly opposes a Republican president. Of course, that increased OAN's profile, which got them on Trump's radar. Trump loves them because they won't stop sucking his dick, so he promotes them to his followers, so now a bunch of people that used to religiously watch Fox now religiously watch OAN and think that Fox isn't conservative enough.

They made a monster and it slipped its leash.

Depending on handwriting or font, commas may be more visible than spaces.

The first Blade movie actually had the antagonist go out in the sun by using copious amounts of sun screen.

She probably was legitimately attractive by Roman cultural norms and almost certainly leveraged that when dealing with Rome. The smear campaign was more playing that aspect up while downplaying the fact she was a genuine once-in-a-generation genius than making up things about how sexy she was.

Latinos, especially first generation immigrants, trend strongly toward being staunchly religious and socially conservative. As such, they tend to think Republicans, who are also religious conservatives, will be on their side. There's also a subset of legal immigrants who hate illegal immigrants. Add in that first generation immigrants often aren't fluent in English yet and that creates a layer of information exchange that conservative news outlets can exploit; if you don't translate the overtly racist crap the politicians say, you can make your audience rely on your white-washed commentary.

As for the folks who's families have been in the US for generations and who grew up fully bilingual in English and Spanish, I'm honestly not sure.

The Acolyte was built on a solid concept and had some great moments. The directing was terrible, though.

I think the Great Plateau is roughly the size of OOT's entire world, so if she only played classic titles that may feel reasonable.

And Oregon. The only people that call it 'pop' here are 80+, and it's rare for them. I used to hear it called 'pop' by the elderly all the time when I was a kid, but that demographic has been dying out for the past twenty years.

You don't need a mod. They added it in Patch 6.

You can knock her out instead of killing her. You can then save her from execution in Act 2 to recruit her. She can even have a bit if a redemption arc, iirc.

Don't forget that the Wii U had one of the most incompetent console marketing campaigns of all time. Just two years ago I met someone who still didn't know it was a console and not an accessory.

i once went on a two week tour to schools teaching the kids how to swear

I feel like this needs elaboration.

 

After having printed the previous version of my poster and discovering that the overall darkness made it difficult to see when framed (light reflects off the glass or plastic and the glare kills it) I have done a bunch of post processing in the hopes that it will turn out better.

 

Inspired by this recent thread.
