Does anyone know wtf animal crossing is? It made buying a switch hard to do a couple months ago and now (child sniffer) Joe has a island in it. I assume it's some degenerate trash, trying to decide if I should sell my so that I'm not associated with degeneracy.

C-SPAN SUSPENDS STEVE SCULLY, THE MODERATOR FOR TONIGHT’S CANCELED PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE, AFTER HE ADMITS HE LIED ABOUT HIS TWITTER ACCOUNT BEING HACKED IN APPARENT EFFORT TO COVER UP COORDINATION WITH “ANTI-TRUMPER”

by Kevin Ryan

C-SPAN has suspended its political editor Steve Scully indefinitely after he admitted to lying about his Twitter account being hacked.
Scully was supposed to moderate the second debate between President Trump and Joe Biden tonight, but the debate was canceled by the Debate Commission after the President was diagnosed with COVID and refused to switch to a virtual format. The president was cleared by doctors nearly a week ago to resume public functions, but the debate remained canceled.
Last week, after President Trump criticized Scully as a “never Trumper,” Scully tried to send a private message to one of the biggest never-Trumpers, one-time White House aide Anthony Scaramucci. However, the message, “@Scaramucci should I respond to Trump?” was accidentally tweeted publicly. People immediately seized upon it as proof Scully was coordinating with anti-Trump people.
Upon realizing that he’d been caught, Scully claimed the message wasn’t actually from him, and that his Twitter account had been “hacked”.
Today, however, C-SPAN says Scully confessed to lying about the hack, and the network has suspended him indefinitely. “He understands that he made a serious mistake,” the network said. “We were very saddened by this news and do not condone his actions.”
Scully has led the network’s presidential election coverage since 1992.

How dare you apply rationale. Someone's obviously a racist transphobic **** bigot who's perpetuating the patriarchy. Better polish up your resume for when the twitter mob gets you fired.

It's a game. Well, there's no actual gameplay per se, but it's interactive software that runs on game consoles. So... a walking-around simulator? Basically a commercialized version of the interactive first-person cat simulator linked to in my signature, but with fewer cats.

Probably a safe bet in general.

Last night was supposed to be two townhalls. It's turned out to be a fireside chat with ABC and a debate against NBC.

BREAKING: Webster's dictionary has changed the meaning of "random" to: people that work for, or previously worked for the DNC.

You're a member of MiataTurbo.net. People associate you with all sorts of degeneracy.

I was debating whether or not to do a furry / pony meme there.


Probably should have, in retrospect.

Yeah furry/pony is to degenerate for me to approve of but anime tiddies are hilarious and I love them.
