I trust someone who’s better with puns and all the latest politics than I to do it justice, but I feel like there’s a rendition of “Brave Sir Robin” as “Brave Sir Orange” that could be quite good.

They do, but unfortunately, they’re radicalized nutjobs, so they aren’t much of an option now…
My wife has a NordicTrack bike, it auto adjusts resistance and incline. Insane people would pay more and not even get that.
Annual Wealth Tax 1% on total assets over 10M, additional 1% over 100M, additional 1% over 1B, etc etc. Raises along with inflation or something.
Some of us play XCOM, 95% chance to hit might as well be 0% when you need 100%, usually means it’s time for a grenade.
I think the bad logic here is that the more sites there are the more likely one of them is improperly follow procedures.
I never said it was impossible, just that one subset of the voting population was likely larger than another. Obama getting elected didn’t end racism, it was just a victory in spite of it. Honestly, part of the rise of White Nationalism might even be attributable to his election, making racism worse.
Why is race a topic? Because there’s a bunch of voting idiots who make their choice based on it. If the candidate doesn’t bring other votes with them somehow, it just makes it that much harder.
The sad honest truth is probably that there are more bigoted people out there that won’t vote for a Dem if it isn’t a white guy than people who would add votes to one who isn’t, particularly in swing states. Maybe I’m too cynical…
As for replacements, even the people who some polls show as being slightly more popular than Biden haven’t been through anywhere near as much of a dedicated smear campaign as he has, and if they were, we don’t know how they’d poll.
At its core, I think it’s basically just the Trolley Problem. Some people would rather passively support a worse situation rather than actively support a better but bad situation.
Official Act to lockup the fascists as domestic terrorists, then bow out of the race.
Biden never any public or official statement about only serving 1-term, in fact when that story started circulating, the official response from his campaign was to say that they were not ruling it out.
They might be in one of the 35-40 states where their vote doesn’t matter anyway.
National Popular Vote Interstate Compact is only 72 Electoral Votes away from being enacted, but it’s getting harder and harder…
“We got married” becomes “We incorporated a Delaware LLC that manages our assets through a Swiss Trust”
For something I’m paying for, I want no ads, recommended or otherwise.
For something I get for free, if it’s easily skippable/ignorable, I don’t really care, I’ll skip it or mute the tab or whatever. If I can’t, I’d rather have a like sniper level targeted ad (use all the data!), really try to show me something I’ll care about (there was some like 10 minutes ad about the science behing glass by one of the guys from MythBusters, I watched the whole ad, it was great). The demographic level targeted ads are my 2nd least favorite, mostly because it feels like I usually need to suffer through what is a targeted ad but if they bothered to exclude some of the audience based on some data points (looking at you luxury car ads, it’s just never going to happen), they’d know I’m a bad target, I’d rather some generic add over those. My least favorite ad though, when I get an ad in a language I don’t even understand, like at least match my primary language, wasting everyone’s time…
There are women who intentionally choose to be a single parent. Like they’re single, they get a sperm donor, have a kid. It’s not some insane thing. Kids should have a supportive and caring environment, whomever raises them. Not every kid with a single caregiver is neglected, nor is every kid with 2 or more caregivers properly cared for.
They’re giving Ukraine $50B, as a loan. They’re repaying the loan at a rate of $3B/yr using the seized interest payments.
Yeah, I feel like it’s one of those situations where you try to think of what would be a size that should be more than enough and then double it (or use the whole canvas if it isn’t as big as that).
“always” might be a bit of a strong word when referring to ownership of basically any part of that region.
I write these words in steel, for anything not set in metal cannot be trusted.
