I am not. I already know they are.

That part doesn’t matter. If FIFA is getting a sitting leader of one of the host country governments to interfere with the outcome, it just signals how little the United States cares about the tournament or the sport. FIFA can totally come out and reverse the ruling and tell us why. The fact that they won’t and we are hearing that Trump is involved, will make the world have more distrust. We already denied visas to the referees, players and fans from many countries who wanted to come here for the tournament. This is blatantly cheating.

If the United States team wants to save face, they need to have Balogun sit out the game tomorrow.

FIFA is already currupt but this not what the U.S. needs.

That was a case where the seller literally didn’t have the rights to the book. If you search for the title today you’ll find a version that is listed as the Authorized Orwell Edition.

Not the same as what I was referring to. Video games based on licensed IPs, often get taken down from digital game stores because the publisher’s license has ended. What you described with 1984 is someone who shouldn’t be selling the media, having sold it. Sure, it sucks if the title disappeared from your device but maybe that was the only legal resolution?

Licensed titles are different. Unless they’ve done that for non-licensed titles.

I’m not upset. I got mine when retailers had been unable to keep stock. Bought from a second hand resale market (StockX) for $800. I couldn’t find it anywhere else.

That’s a terrible way of doing it.

That bad?

Remember when the Epic Games Store was so bad that anti-virus software was identifying it as a threat?

A BIT FUCKING LATE FOR THAT NOW!

Fuck Israel and anyone that supports the state.

Is Inside Job based on a true story?

I’m surprised that song didn’t anger gun owners.

Why not just get rid of firearms completely?

I don’t believe these boxes actually have the game till they are opened. Secondly, back in April, Yaamava Casino claimed to be giving away as a prize, a unopened copy of Mario Bros. The thing that pissed me off was in all the advertising (including television), they would never say the name of the game. They just showed a image of the box and referred to it as a “cartridge classic”. IF YOU WON’T SAY THE FUCKING GOD DAMN NAME THEN I DON’T FUCKING BELIEVE YOU ACTUALLY HAVE THAT GAME!

Does this not count as union busting?

I’m gonna link this article from Sprudge from 2019 when the price of commodity dropped to like a $1 (maybe it was less). Starbucks put together a relief fund, giving smallholder farmers in Nicaragua, Guatemala, Mexico, and El Salvador, $20 million dollars. Long story short is that this exact amount based on currently available financial data, equated to less than $61.3 million at the time, which was approximately how much the company earned in revenue in a single afternoon. The point was that without up to date financials, the public did not know what the true impact was. For what it is worth, Starbucks could have been hurting farms by doing this at a time when the price of commodity was extremely low.

This sounds like the plot of a Futurama episode.

So they are related to Vulcans? /s

So they don’t want them in the U.S. but he doesn’t like them elsewhere either? Dude, stop projecting your racism onto other people. Just because you are a dingbat bigot doesn’t mean anyone is or wants to be.
