Oh wonderful, a new anxiety is unlocked… Though I will say that this wouldn’t happen until mid to late December, and we will have election results around Nov 6-8. This is definitely a much harder gambit with over a month of time knowing the result of the election, that is to say, it’ll be much more clearly a coup than if it happened during election day. Lets just hope this is a landslide for Harris, and the chance of this being a viable option for trump being even lower.

You’re right, its a drop in the bucket for votes, but its a bullshit reason to cry “corruption” which we will certainly feel.

Just an FYI, all of these Ballot/Mail Box fires will be pointed to when trump attempts his second coup when he loses. I cant believe I’m casually talking about a future coup attempt in my country…

This will give a fake appearance of legitimacy to his claims. I’m worried…

Boomers are still alive, so literally all of the rules ever as fast as possible.

Special standout for “dont believe everything you read” - “Well fuck you Ill believe everything without thought”

So thats on me, I said “does nothing to change our two party system” when I should have said “does nothing to remove our two party system”. All this does is concentrate power into the democrats which if they had no worry of winning elections would very quickly openly turn into the Billionaire Boot Licking Society overnight. We need more political parties.

All this being said I’m not arguing against removing the electoral college, it needs to die. But Americas problems run so much deeper than the GOP

And none of this happens until we ditch the two party system. Because the Dems will just continue to do the bare minimum to win elections while still serving the billionaire class.

Removing the electoral college does nothing to change our two party system so I don’t understand why you think it solves billionaire class rule.

You’re most likely right, they recognize the headline saying “DOJ considering breaking up Alphabet” would be meaningless to most people.

Yeah especially when you consider that this “conservative democrat president” is the one who put Lina Khan at the head of the FTC and Merrick Garland at the head of the DOJ, and is why for one of the few times In my life I’m seeing news articles about people in the government doing their fucking job of protecting the American people from American Corporations.

A great question, Id never considered that previously.

My instant gut feeling would be that they would all just continue selling adds, but as separate entities?

Also how does breaking up google work when the current structure is that Alphabet is the primary company now?

Hmmmm, lead water from my bidet, or asbestos toilet paper, which will poison my poor asshole quicker I wonder?

We as a society have given up on doing literally anything to shame or punish people who are rude selfish assholes. In fact a large contingent of society seems to celebrate selfishness now. Considering how your actions impact others is something I feel like capitalism has destroyed by showing the world that the only thing you should value is getting ahead by any means necessary, just pretend your actions have no consequences and sell your soul and you too can definitely never be rich too. I truly believe seeing this play out in real life for our entire lives has just shown people considering other people is a recipe to be worse off than being selfish. Capitalism is a plague.

Yeah at that point it kind of morphs genre from dungeon grinder to isometric action. That being said I think isometric action is a way better game type due to the level of involvement and a challenge that’s skill based; whereas I find dungeon grinders to boring from overly simplistic controls and gameplay loops.

That being said I am tired of so many game just giving you 3 real buttons, but this is the problem with making games to make money, if you want to market broad you have to keep it simple.

Behind every problem in life lies capitalisms ugly asshole.

As someone who shaves regularly, my skin finally cleared when I began using alcohol and fragrance free aftershave lotion.

I’m curious to see how my boy Sanderson handles a book series that is almost entirely politics. Not to say I haven’t seen Sanderson have politics, Stormlight Archives probably the most political of his many books, but its still not even close to the intensely political nature of ASOIAF.

We all know Sanderson would hit a home run though.

I was once told that it isn’t about making your mind blank, it’s about acknowledging the thought that rolls into your mind, and then letting it go. The idea being to train yourself to let trains of thought go. When I’m being a huge dick to myself with my inner monologue I can sometimes remember “oh yeah! I can just not think about this” and then I’ll let my mind go elsewhere.

First you have to stop capitalist government

lol yeah right

But really though humanity is doomed unless we figure out a way to actually reverse it, because we wont do anything to stop it until its too late to stop (decades ago), so then we wont do anything until it begins creating worldwide problems, which is soon, so by then we will have to have a solution to reverse it.

I wouldn’t say it’s a manipulation, the game is far beyond the original game at this point. I’m surprised it’s even on sale ATM. It’s an amazing game.

They’re also planning on raising the full price shortly to $40, most likely with the launch of 1.0 the next update coming soon. Amazing game!

Never considered the who would support you in advanced age argument. But I live in the US and any children I have would end up as probably the poorest generation to ever exist in this country, so not them I suppose.
