No wonder conservatives are so violent and such a THREAT TO DEMOCRACY!!!! They were trained as children!!!!

My brother and I turned a little shed into a submarine. We sat on the roof and fired torpedoes at Nazi ships. We had anti-aircraft guns for the planes, too. I still remember the little round circles we made with chalk … Torpedoes 1, 2, 3 and 4. We took prisoners and locked them in the little shed with a padlock.

To make matters worse, my brother insisted on being the captain. I was always the first mate and never got promoted.    Because I was a GIRL.

Was he older than you?  I was the eldest of five and in my childhood I wished for an older brother.  I was envious of my friends who had big brothers.  When I was in my early 30s, Dad told us that we had an older half brother given up for adoption, and the kid, now in his late 30s, had just made contact with him and would we like to meet him?  Hell yes!!  I missed growing up with him (I had to be the a-hole that bossed around the siblings) but my wish finally came true.

I literally have no idea what you are talking about. Are you saying the article I referenced was fiction?

No, not your article.  I am referring to an online game where there is a fake world canvas and people can go on there and claim territory by papering it over with your colors, or just create art.  I don’t think it is coincidental that there is now a virtual fake war being waged there between Turkey and Greece in light of your real life article although it is unknown how many of the Turkey aggressors are actual Turks, just as many of the Greece defenders aren’t actually Greek, but people from all over the planet play there as you can see from all the Cyrillic script.  I understand China has blocked it because it “is a waste of people’s time” so you don’t see a lot of Chinese. It has also been banned from certain platforms no doubt because of all the pro-Trump, anti-globalist stuff on there.  Nevermind the smut and racism, although some of the racist stuff might be planted provocation from the left.  You’ll probably get on an FBI watch list if you look at it but it’s just good clean fun.

The battle is already being waged virtually.  This is a multiplayer game where you color in pixels.  I’ve been playing on team Styx which is centered in Africa with the red yellow squares.  We had to respond to the Nazis and attack their big black swastika after they wandered in to our territory.  Our battle cry is “clank!” which refers to the clank of your spoon in your coffee cup or mug.  Hence all the pictures of spoons.

Note that California has fallen off into the ocean.

There are bots which are hard to fight.  The big N word in Africa is something we have tried to erase but some bot persistently rebuilds it. 

There is a cooldown after you reach one minute of 7 seconds for covering a pixel and 4 seconds for fresh canvas. This changes to 14 seconds and 2 seconds respectively after a void fight depending on if the void is defeated or not.  Void appear randomly but I’ve never seen one yet.  Supposedly usually in Antarctica or near the North Pole.

We are helping our Greek allies hold back the Turkish invasion, Greek in blue and the Turks in red.

P.S. Right now there are server issues with over 2000 people playing.  It starts getting laggy around 1300.  You have to regularly complete a captcha check and that seems to fail too with too many players online.

P.P.S. Well now it’s a minute and a half and 15 seconds so I don’t know what’s going on.

There are some people that simply should not be anywhere near a computer.

Yep.  And some shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near a voting booth.  We need a constitutional amendment where only those working and paying taxes (or retired and paying taxes) should be allowed to vote.

The poor Bee.  Sometimes stories like this are far, far too close to reality to be funny.

Yes.  That headline is the literal sober truth.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Having politically weaponized federal law enforcement for his own political gain, President Biden has now taken to the airwaves to warn that democracy is in real danger.

"Folks, I'm using the feds as best I can to destroy my political opponents, but let me be clear: I'm going to have to break more laws and seize even more power if I'm going to stop fascism," yelled President Biden, lighted in blood-red and surrounded by soldiers. "I don't care if that means a federal takeover of elections, an overthrow of the judiciary - heck I don't care if I have to use F-15s to carpet bomb every single Republican neighborhood in the country. We will forcibly commandeer every lever of power and communication our nation has - to, you know, defeat fascism."

Trump nominated her so the left will scream bias.  Once again, projection - how much more is Biden abusing the system by getting the FBI to raid Trump in the first place.
