Not a pinball post. Holy crap this whole world is in turmoil. I have seen turmoil, but this is some new kind of turmoil.
I just thought I had seen it all. No, i have not seen it all.
I would like to go into politics. Why not. Why the hell not. I would like to be California governor. If that happens. You all have to vote for me. I'll do the same for you.
The real reason I posted this was because I feel like the world is ripe for a new level. Of humanity. I hope so.
Try to limit your consumption of the nightly news. It's designed to attract eyeballs and is basically the junk food of journalism. You'll probably feel better without too much of it.
I agree with forceflow. Turn off the cable news. It's the equivalent of the 2 minutes of hate from 1984. It is designed to invoke emotion and addict you.

My 6pm news gets turned on at 6:40pm. Because that’s the time the sports segment starts. Then after that, it goes right back off again.
My life is better for it.

And a wise man you are...I just watch ESPN. "News" hasn't been "news" for years, but at a scripted all time low, imho. No different than reality TV....a joke....

I don't know about turmoil for the whole word, but definitely not for the United States. I would say California is turmoil though. If you want to get in there and make changes then the policies of the major cities of CA must change. The leaders of the cities want to help everyone, but all they are doing is bankrupting and creating a culture of no consequences and no law.
And off to the basement in 3. 2. 1.
Quoted from PopBumperPete:only 7 years to go
until??? Man I'm glad this is Pinside, because I could really go off on this one...but shall not....back to BM66 for a couple rounds....

Wise, wise words....

LMAO!!! so true....if I hear "breaking news" one more time (on a nightly basis, btw), I might projectile vomit.....
Quoted from Rondogg:Trip to the basement in 3, 2...
Is there still a basement? Don't see it on the home page anymore....
Quoted from romulusx:Less news more football
romulusx I believe you meant less news more pinball
Politics is the only job that you get paid for not doing your job or anything. Plus no drug testing, pay raises, and free cars and planes.
Quoted from MK6PIN:I just watch ESPN. "News" hasn't been "news" for years
Unfortunately, ESPN has hardly been sports for years now.

And lucrative work contracts for your family and friends!
It's interesting how they all become multi-millionaires several times over on a $174,000 salary...

Congress people used to be able to do inside trading with immunity. Obama changed that, so I give the man credit there.

True....TV in general is not what it once was....
So many choices....so much junk

With all the insane crap going on marrying 5 year olds is ok, marry your car, pedomania. And I saw an article that the finest news network compost n n cnn ran an article more or less promoting canabolism. Its ok to eat human brain and drink from skulls. Indoctrinating satanisn more or less.

Yup... while my mother-in-law was watching regularly she would tell me things like "never use your phone outside because you will get mugged".... don't drive on X street because you will get carjacked... don't even leave a penny in your console because your car will be broken into within 2 minutes.... it actually started to paralyze here into being afraid to go outside... and watch more news.

Yea, never figured this one out. Even if they saved every penny of salary the math still doesn't work.
the world is in turmoil cos of the american government and its intentions of invading countries it has no business in
what i do think is good news tho is nth korea joining with sth korea for winter olympics,bet trump dont like that lol
Quoted from jesster64:bet trump don't give a rats a...
Probably somewhere inbetween... from a quick search on reaction:
“I'd like to see them getting involved in the Olympics and maybe things go from there,” Trump declared Saturday at Camp David. “So I'm behind that 100%.”
So yeah, probably doesn't particularly care but if it starts them down a better path then cool.

What? What news are you watching? You could use a break from the “news.”
As for this thread, there is a reason that religion and politics are banned from pinside. It causes division among people who have a love in common. The love of pinball. Peace to all you libtards and repugnicants.
I’m out. LOL
