You conveniently ignored my other point regarding how much of the electorate actually counts, but sure.

He got the popular vote in 2024. Not against Hillary in 2017. That’s my whole point, this whole situation would not even be happening if the presidential election system in the US wasn’t such a mess.

I mean, my parents and their generation can, for the most part. The rest of us… are probably not even making it to retirement lol 🥹

No, they didn’t? Like only 1/3 of the states actually “matter” during an election because of the electoral college, and they are all gerrymandered to shit thanks to Republican redistricting efforts and suppressed via ID laws going all the way back to Reagan, if not earlier.

Voters are a convenient scapegoat, but remember, Clinton won the popular vote in 2016. There shouldn’t even have been a first Trump term in an actual representative democracy, and opposition Dems barely moved the needle to safeguard any future elections from another term of this shit.

Yeah no joke, when No Child Left Behind was implemented by Bush 2, I remember both my parents discussing how it’s gonna lead to a dumber society within a decade or two, in a “Our nursing home is gonna be run by morons LOL” kind of way. I was waaaay too young to actually understand what they were talking about, but damn were they right.

Thank you! This was what I was hoping someone would suggest.

That’s just it, I don’t know. And the government is being deliberately vague instead of just saying what they are shipping to Israel, or sending auxiliary weapons that are still being used in direct combat.

I pulled that quote because I want to emphasize that it is not as transparent as your original comment is making it seem.

The exact nature of the goods remains unclear. The ministry’s response lists eight categories, including rockets, torpedoes, warships and naval equipment. But as the exports are not classified as weapons of war and the total value is relatively small, the shipments likely involve accessories or equipment.

I wouldn’t call sending rockets and warships as “no weapons” just because the government says they’re not.

91 impactful years. I hope to leave quarter of a legacy that she does. Rest in power.

Bro…my weather app is selling my data? 😦

I just wanted up-to-date travel conditions in a convenient widget. My taxes already pay for the meteorology, why do they need to sell my data too??

Cats are DEVASTATING to native rodent and bird populations in the “New World” ecosystems. There’s a reason their populations are controlled.

My EA internship at one of their Canadian offices was the best experience I’ve had in the gaming industry. I feel for my colleagues there, no doubt the work culture is about to get real toxic for them.

Bro, what the fuck are you even saying anymore.

The ketamine has fried these guys brains beyond belief.

I see, thanks! Transformative work copyright is always confusing to me.

Genuinely asking, as I’m not that versed on copyright, why would fan works not be under fair use as long as it’s not for profit?

OH I see it now. Yeah, the area with Aerith’s house is gorgeous, and I was already enamoured with it in the OG with PS1 graphics. Remake really is great with the environments.

The first screenshot for me is Rude pulling a wrestling move on Cloud, so I’m really wondering if I’m missing a joke…

Finally got 120Hz screens on base models

Wifi doesn’t work

Ok Apple…

I’m already in the EU, so under the UK branch of the subsidiary. Theoretically, I would be immune to the algorithm manipulation from the US. In practice, who knows. The UK hasn’t really been pushing back against US Tech interferences.
