Key distinction there.

Yeah, but Kamala and Biden were were not flitting off to fiddle kids with Epstein, so Israel didn’t have leverage.

If all those voters were so upset by Kamala Harris’ stance on Palestine, they should have voted in the primaries for a candidate that matched their views.

If you leave off the /s, you find the trolls.

I don’t know if that’s the argument you think it is? The first modern Chinese and Russian billionaires are products of the 80s/90s, decades after the deaths of Stalin and Mao. Arguably, there’s a fair amount of compromising that led to the collapse of the USSR and the rise of capitalist communism in China created these billionaires. Maybe if they’d kept a harder, purer, uncompromising communist line there’d be fewer billionaires.

You can also take a look at Reconstruction. Any black person will tell you that while there has been progress, it’s obviously not been enough. And Reconstruction played a large part in that. We were uncompromising at first, which led to real results. Then we compromised and Reconstruction ended. And the South went right back to the way things had been.

The sad truth is that if more people were uncompromising on their moral core, we probably wouldn’t be in this mess.

I’ve been hoping for that for a long time, but for every one that has the grace to age out and die, at least one more ages in.

I don’t know anyone who uses Steam for the community features.

Steam works because it’s easy. Full stop.

PSALM 140

1 Deliver me, O Lord, from evil men; Preserve me from violent men, 2 Who plan evil things in their hearts; They continually gather together for war. 3 They sharpen their tongues like a serpent; The poison of asps is under their lips. Selah

4 Keep me, O Lord, from the hands of the wicked; Preserve me from violent men, Who have purposed to make my steps stumble. 5 The proud have hidden a snare for me, and cords; They have spread a net by the wayside; They have set traps for me. Selah

6 I said to the Lord: “You are my God; Hear the voice of my supplications, O Lord. 7 O God the Lord, the strength of my salvation, You have [a]covered my head in the day of battle. 8 Do not grant, O Lord, the desires of the wicked; Do not further his wicked scheme, Lest they be exalted. Selah

9 “As for the head of those who surround me, Let the evil of their lips cover them; 10 Let burning coals fall upon them; Let them be cast into the fire, Into deep pits, that they rise not up again. 11 Let not a slanderer be established in the earth; Let evil hunt the violent man to overthrow him.”

12 I know that the Lord will maintain The cause of the afflicted, And justice for the poor. 13 Surely the righteous shall give thanks to Your name; The upright shall dwell in Your presence

Sounds like the opposite might be true, and it’s OK to pray for the death of evil men.

They’re also much easier to hold and use for someone with motor issues, especially the big ones.

But imagine the returns on that Kalshi bet.

Yeah, he’s not Catholic, so he’d spin it as a badge of honor for sure.

Co-opting alpine divorce, which regularly involves a murder attempt, feels weird? Just call it the sierra split.

I do wonder how much of this is a cheapening of the weekend getaway, where you’d go to a B&B upstate, find out your potential partner snores, drinks to much, is rude to service workers, or views a toothbrush as optional. You’d sigh and split. It’s just a bad weekend.

But with this, camping and hiking is a complication. You’re drinking warm filtered water from a Nalgene, eating granola because someone forgot to bring a lighter. Also, it’s raining and all your socks are wet. Did you bring anything to wash dishes? Ah, there are no dishes. You smell like smoke and are covered in sand.

Granted, you can do camping/hiking well, but I’d bet some of these cases are from people doing it poorly, trying to save a buck by avoiding more expensive weekend getaways.

Nah, the guy is probably badly upside down on the loan, and the truck is depreciating so fast he won’t be able to roll the loan/trade-in over into another truck.

The ending is OK. It’s the journey there we all want to avoid.

Many Nazi ideas are a direct port of racist ideology from the USA. It’s pretty easy to argue the Nazis picked it up from us. The Republican party is a haven for Nazis, not because Nazism is a new phenomenon in the USA, but because it’s made in the USA.

Gotta be al that avocado toast.

You can also casually remind people that more Republicans live in California than Texas, which usually makes their head explode. It’s an enormous state, with a huge economy, with tons and tons of people.

This is a “Pokémon go to the polls,” vibe. Not a compliment.

It’s really easy for Republicans to make this argument as well.

How can libs win elections when you don’t know any?

This makes a lot of sense to some guy from Kansas. Everyone he knows loves Trump, so how can Trump lose? I hear this from a lot of relatives.

I think most people’s issue is that all she’s ever done is hint, and now that there is less reason than ever to hint, that’s all she continues to do.

This case needs someone to step up, corroborate the documents, and speak out so some of these things can be unredacted. She, as a billionaire, is best equipped, but chose to keep hinting on a podcast tour instead, and in the current climate, that makes people suspicious.

If renewable energy had the lobbyist capital of non-renewable energy, things would change. Until then, very little.

For the rich and powerful, it’s not about making the world better, it’s about making my world better, and getting paid in oil money does that well enough.
