2024 LC Thread

Never been a better time for the Welsh Kingdom to declare its independence.

I started watching Lakefront Empire on a whim. It’s a real estate show about Lake of the Ozarks, so basically a MAGA paradise where chiropractors buy million dollar lakefront homes. One of the real estate agents is a former drug trafficker, and for some reason she brings this up to her clients. Available now on Max!

Im sorry, what year are you living in where you can buy a lakefront home for $1 million?

2024?

Didn’t know Zoroastrianism was still a thing.

I’ve seen some Iranian activists making some noise about this. Zoroastrianism was the pre-Muslim religion of Iran, and folks are converting to it as a way to maintain Iranian identity while rejecting Islam.

Did you think Freddie Mercury was the last Zoroastrian?

I’ve got a Crusader Kings campaign where I reverted the Iranian caliphate back to Zoroastrianism.

I’m starting to think this stuff has always happened with regular frequency but it’s just getting reported on now.

I think that’s a lot of it, but every once in a while you get a few conspicuous incidents in quick succession and then you realize people have been slacking on safety and quality. Management has a tendency to screw up priorities because they want short-term profit.
