IF he becomes president. Make sure you vote, people.

Well said. Thank you for sharing.

What’s is MFBR?

She looks like Friendly Jordies!

I love it lmfao (lost my flannel at Orlando)

Yeah. I think you can sum it up as “some crimes absolutely deserve death. No government can be trusted to dole it out”.

I wonder if he means that in the sense of “putting you in jail is only going to empower your frankly rabid base of supporters. I need to avoid even the slightest hint of a mistrial so we can put you in prison for good.”

This is one of the things about businesses I don’t get.

If you cut your staff, your ability to make money goes down with them. Why would layoffs be the reaction to reduced sales? It’s like they don’t have any money in savings or something.

Oh wait.

I think I understand it. It makes sense if his goals were to 1) release this information and 2) survive afterwards. Doing #1 was relatively easy, as he had the access to accomplish it.

But to then stay alive and (relatively) free required being beyond the reach of the US government. Being in the States is out of the question, and by extension so is being in any country with an extradition treaty with the US. I don’t know what all the options were, but ultimately he chose Russia as the place he would live.

If you assume his goal is freedom for mankind in general, it does seem hypocritical to go running to an authoritarian country for safety. But it seems pretty clear he wasn’t motivated by a vague principle, but rather wanting to blow the whistle on a specific injustice he saw.

It’s a joke about how the head of Ubisoft referred to the game Skull And Bones as a “quadruple-A” game. The highest-budget games are often classified as “triple-A”, though people also tend to use the term as a way to indicate size or quality. By calling S&B an AAAA game he was signaling that it would be in a class of its own in terms of quality, most likely.

The game itself has been pretty universally considered “meh” at best, so this meme is making fun of the original claim.

I hope this explanation helps!

What game?

Panic Attack by Dream Theatre.

That’s really interesting to know. Do you have any particular sources you’d recommend for further reading?
