I am also fascinated by a guy who, if he’s going to be that corrupt, can’t be competently corrupt to have more than $7 in his bank account.

Ppppbbbttt! He’s only against telemarketing because he already has his deep pocket contributors lined up. And some of those are questionable sources.

That $1500 on Steam during a sale or just normal?
I mean… if you really want to spend money on Steam, it’s not hard:
…and that doesn’t even include the game! It’s just the add ons!

$1500? Filthy casuals.

Well, to be fair, bundles are a big contributor to my Steam library, and they greatly depress the average per-game price paid, but I have hundreds bought through Steam itself. I think I only paid the full price on a single AAA game, though. (And even then it was only because it was a recently released game that sounded very similar to a game I had been working on at the time, and I felt obligated to check it out immediately.) I have a whole lot of AAA games, but not brand-new ones. When my Steam backlog got too high (which happened almost instantly), I quickly realized how foolish it was to pay $50 for games when they’d be marked down to $5 or less by the time I actually got around to playing them, something which happens very quickly now.

Any idea what his handle is? I’d love to backstab him in, say, Rocket League. Yes, my designation is tier 44-Expert.

Wtf is up with train hobbyists? Buy a yacht or something, people!
Ballotpedia’s description of the seat (California-50) has it estimated as R+11 (11% more republican than the nation as a whole). This means that it’s probably safe, but could be flipped if you have the combination of a big swing to the Democrats, plus some additional fall-out from this scandal.
How much does a scandal hurt a candidate. Well, 538 just did an article on this:
They estimate it at about 9 points.
Sorry to be overly wordy here but attached is the list my friend provided me with. Please note that my friend will pay $20.00 for any factual errors that can be found. This list does not include the current crop of convictions, however.

Yeah, but it’s barely on sale. 
After saying that, I looked at Steam at the most expensive games/bundles, and several publishers had 50+ game bundles on sale, and the two most expensive ones were, together, a bit more than $1500, so… It’s not impossible to spend that much money, it just involves buying more games (or add-ons) than you can play or buying the most expensive games at full price (at a rate faster than you could play through them).
It says a lot about the makeup of this community that the biggest topic of conversation in this scandal is the online gaming portion!
