We can do that after we get rid of Trump. If we let Trump do it now, he will turn it into a circus, gain some political cover from it, and we will never know for sure who actually did what.

Once we have sane leadership again, then we can do it properly.

The majority of those problems go away if more people had their basic needs met.

Started up Honorverse again, with On Basilisk Station.

It’s a comfort series for me. Oddly enough.

If this was true, there would be no reason not to vote on it all together.

This happened under Biden. (Schumer then, too, I belive) Separated a bill, passed the parts the Republicans wanted, then the Republicans voted against the part the Democrat wanted.

Bend over, here it comes again.

The show clearly makes him out to be a loose cannon, dangerous even to his allies. He caused great factionalism in the rebellion.

And he died, having accomplished very little, because he believed that victory comes from purity of purpose, rather than from working together against the enemy of all.

I first encountered the song while watching a world history documentary.

I’m from the late 1900’s.

That might work for people with no families. There was a time in my life where I’d have cheerfully defected in exchange for citizenship and protection.

Today, I’d need that for myself and a few others.

I’m not sure I’d call that “unfortunate.” I’ve said for ages that if we can just get more people to vote, it will be good for the democrats. Work the rise of MAGA, I’ve included that if we can get them to think before they vote, that will be even better.

I’m perfectly happy to ignore everything between Enterprise and SNW, except for Lower Decks. (Is there an official TLA for that?)

Good riddance.

Where do I sign?

Actually, no. I forgot that my pay is two weeks at a time, so call it 60 hours.

I’ve occasionally considered purchases add a function of the number of hours worked to earn that money. My fast food costs an hour of work. My nifty you costs two or three hours. Rent costs 30 hours, more or less.

Sometimes it’s helpful, mostly depressing.

Tricky to “kick out” an outpost of the most powerful military in the world.

Further, you really don’t want an outpost of that same military sitting in your country unpaid, worrying about their family, maybe running short of food, absolutely running short of entertainment, tension rising, and heavily armed.

There may be something to that. A poorly deigned mask might allow co 2 buildup. If I was going to do it, I’d have repurposed one of the old gas chambers.

And yes, I can’t imagine the mental state makes things any better.

No-one is every gonna call it anything but the Epstein ballroom.

Execution by nitrogen should be fine. People who survive evidential exposure report having no sensation of choking, just sudden loss of consciousness. Our bodies do not react to low oxygen levels, they react to high carbon dioxide levels.

You would not “struggle to breath” nitrogen. You would just breathe it, then fall out.

Hopper died, too.
