1. I haven't defended him, I've consistently said he might have committed a crime, though that would be unlikely given it was 7 years ago.
2. Labeling everyone you don't like as a pedophile isn't a good look.

It was an act passed by congress and signed by a sitting president. Biden alone doesn't have the authority to change it, and if he did try that then it would be caught up in courts for years.

I wasn't arguing with you, just building on it.

I know very little, honestly it's hard to ever really capture all the nuance, but I do recall having conversations about white supremacist movements in Bolivia with ties to a news corporation operating out of Washington DC, which led some to speculate it was primed for a coup by the CIA during the Trump administration or even earlier. Bolivia elected its first indigenous president Morales, but they were ousted in 2019.

So it seems pretty easy to pick a side, at least from a glance, but there is more we don't know going on than we do.

That's really neat, I've played a few MS-DOS era games but I didn't think that sort of home computer hardware was around in the mid 80s.

Ah, now Commodores are a name that everybody recognizes.

TBF, after the 2020 election they were faced with issues like budget reconciliation and debt limit (without which nothing would be voted on at all during a government shutdown) as well as reimplementing some of the many regulations taken down by the Trump admin and finally passing a 1.9 Trillion Dollar infrastructure deal alongside a new round of stimulus checks (which the receiving states decided how to use, sadly), and many congressional hearings about corruption of the former administration and federal judges (which ultimately hasn't lead anywhere other than referrals to the DOJ).

So in the 2 year span that they held 48 + 2 senate seats and house majority, they were pretty tied up I would say.

EDIT: Plus, it would've been filibustered anyways.

Preaching of damnation is not evidence of damnation. There is just as likely a god who punishes you for believing anything wrong as there is a god who punishes you for not believing in them specifically.

You're making your heart work harder. You also need to rest harder as a result, to avoid accumulating damage. There is a lot of interpersonal variance, though, with different bodies and genetics.

300mg is a lot of caffeine, mind you.

At risk of embarrassing myself, what the hell is an Amiga?

A while back, HR 1 For the People Act promised to remedy much of the issue but it never got a vote in the senate because Republicans held the Senate Speaker until the next congress was formed.

Well no, it's better for the politician's campaign's wallets. If people could spend campaign funds however they wanted then Donald Trump would have quite a few less pending felonies.

Let that be a lesson.

But if he considered that, then he also would have considered not believing in anything was an equally probable bet for salvation. Which is clearly not the case.

Caffeine is fine as long as you stretch often to keep arteries open, and sleep 12 hours a day.

Rivian comes off as a tech bro startup that has talked a big game but produced poor results, they've been advertising autonomous self driving since like 2015 or earlier. After shipments started, so did layoffs.

VW has a long history of reliable manufacturing to high standards in Europe. They've had executives make claims that they would overtake Tesla as the world's largest electric car company by 2025. Obviously, VW has been lagging hard on EV and won't reach that goal, but if I had to pick a favorite car company it's between them and maybe JEEP or KIA.

Mixed feelings, I like VW but I don't really like Rivian.

Because I think mob justice is criminal. If Dr Disrespect did wrong then he did wrong, but we don't know anything other than the fact that he has in fact spoken to a person who was under 18, which in itself is not a crime.

Twitch banned him 3 years after the supposed contact between the two, and attempted to go without paying out his contract termination until he started a lawsuit and Twitch settled it.
