There are birds outside chirping at 12am for some reason. Go to bed, birds
Look on the bright side.

At least it isn't peacocks at four in the morning.

Slept in a zoo once as a kid as part of some zoo event. There's a reason those birds are called the same male/female names as chickens.

In the whole spectrum, Bernie would actually be centre-left. None of the ideas which he proposes are particularly radical in the grand scheme of things.
Really, quite a number of things from what I gleamed of Bernie's policy, would've just been stuff similar to the UK's benefits system and some heavier taxation on the rich.

And where is this image from? Cause if from the Daily Mail, I'd advice discarding it, cause they may have been edited. So remember Daily Mail full of ****.

Also again its the right of UK citizens to associate with Stalin imagery if they choose, cause freedom of speech. Plus not like any Russians are going to object now, cause Russians don't care what the UK gets up to on days off at home.
People would get made if even a single person at a Trump rally, for example, was wearing a shirt with Hitler on it.

Wouldn't it make sense to be equally made from people of someone wearing a shirt from a dictator just as evil?

Even if both have the freedom to do so

I know, but that's not the point I was making, I'm saying that some conservatives think he's a communist/libertarians, or then again the ones that do think so consider anything social to be communist, so never mind.

Well, then the person will have the consequences of being called an asshole by other people. But my main point is, its the Daily Mail, don't take what they say and show at face value, cause they are known for making stuff up.

This is an actual tweet.
There was a problem fetching the tweet

I'm crying. Who thought this was a good idea.

lol what.

Most people hate him because he singlehandedly ruined the Swastika in the West.

If that's true that's great

But, I had some India guys yelling at me on Twitter about something, combined with articles like

https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/hitler-is-a-rock-star-in-south-asia

and

http://www.jpost.com/Opinion/Why-is-Adolf-Hitler-popular-in-India-376622

It might have given me a skewed view

Suddenly my YT recomendations got filled with Pokémon Stars theories, fanmade trailers and songs. Did I missed something apart from the rumored direct?

Hoo boy. What are are those articles even.
I've not met a single person in my life who would defend his actions. There are only two kinds of people - people who abhor him and people don't know who Hitler is.

The book can be found in most bookstores, that is true, but its appeal mostly lies in that it is a book of pure evil you can actually buy and read. Jews never had a large population in India, so anti-Semitism is non-existent.

Those articles can burn in hell.

I doubt it, I'm pretty sure the reason the Direct rumor came up in the first place was because Stars speculation started accelerating.

. . .Well, you may have missed one thing.

Yeah because of this, everyone seems to be jumping on the band wagon that the direct will announce stars. I still don't see it happening.

The rumor stated stars is the codename for one, like how SM's was rainbow. So it likely wouldn't be final name. It also feels to early, I think a full blown E3 trailer would work better, but a small direct to tease and announce it would make sense.

I'll admit though that merch has one hell of a name and timing.

@praline: Ridiculous racers, you say?

Some Yugioh monster sounds like a fun idea. Maybe Overdrive(a literal machine, who is a car, with a gatling gun on it).

If any video game characters are allowed in general, Epona and Ridley in Karts are a must.

Let's see, perhaps Yamcha from DB, or even Cell Jr.

Aizen from Bleach cause why not.

Somebody from TMNT. April, maybe? She has a van.

I don't care what it is, I'd like it fried.

Original recipe if you please.
Fun fact: I watched a group of turkeys yell at a chicken this week.

This was during a very recent visit to my current most local zoo, they have a farm area with a turkey cage and a chicken cage within a line of sight.

I wasn't sure why the turkeys were gobbling at first, but someone pointed out that they were watching the rooster in the cage nearby crowing and sure enough that's where they were facing, gobbling in chorus a bit after the next time the rooster crowed.

I've never seen dinner argue before like that. I'm assuming they were trying to figure out who gets the short straw. :^)

I think we gonna get bamboozled, maybe we will not get direct after all.

https://web.archive.org/web/2016071...tendo.co.jp/corporate/direct_links/index.html
A slot opened as early on July 13, 2016, but there was no direct until September 1.

This week is going to feel long due the Golden Week in Japan, meaning a possible news drought, a small one, but in the week where people will want answers the most lol.

But Pokémon may still be coming.
May 7, 2014: ORAS announced
May 10, 2016: First SM trailer

And well, it is May now :v
I also think Stars is a codename; the Sun is a star anyway. If it is a followup to SM, Eclipse or Prism would make more sense... and sound cooler.

The likely third legendary has a star on it's back and Prism doesn't fit the cosmic naming theme, though.

The game doesn't really run off of scientific convention for naming. The Sun and moon already aren't equals in a scientific sense, in layman's understanding the grouping of Sun, moon, and stars works perfectly fine.

If anything I'd think Prism sounds more like a hypothetical codename since the original codename for Gen 7 was Rainbow, but that's just me. If anything the fact that Rainbow was what leaked is probably the biggest sign there's a chance Stars might not be the final name rather than any scientific basis, but Stars seems pretty natural as a name to me at this point moreso than the other choices typically proposed.

Maybe Stars isn't as cool, but I think it evokes the feeling of the gen better than the others. I mean, in the sense that you look up at the stars and wonder. . .is something else out there? Perhaps those things are farther away than the stars, but the sentiment remains.

I think I'd like a region that's a little more hipster. India's a pretty mainstream request.

How much does Chile and Argentina have for inspiration? I've gotten some trades from those, I know there's a base. :4megaman:

That's a pretty odd combination of names. :p

Mandala means System and Yantra means Machine.

India is actually a mainstream request? Huh.

I'd vouch for Australia or Africa. Madagascar?

The hammer and sickle is taboo only in the US, really. And in countries formerly under Soviet puppet governments.

It's quite commonly used by moderate socialists here, who about are as left leaning as Bernie.
Oh, so that's why I keep seeing people overreacting to it everywhere.
I thought we were past gone the "evil commies" era

I think it's unfair to label anything more than a moderate left-wing an evil communist that wants the socialist super state
Same with comparing everyone mean to Hitler, it degrades the real evil that has happened throughout history.

I got an Algebra II EoC in 3 minutes, wish me luck.

Also what's this "Miitopia" thing. Nobody wants that. I want another Tomodachi Life.

As a Tomodachi Life ex-pat, I think I'll prefer Miitopia.

At least it'll have some gameplay substance after you get done with seeing how wacky the RNG can be.

I ain't saying tons, but some.
