  • Not meaningfully in a first past the post vote. Ranked choice or some other alternative, then sure…

  • It’s awkwardly written but I imagine it’s the difference between “I consent to this at an undefined but bounded time in the future” vs “I consent to this right now or at this predetermined single moment in time”.

    Alternatively it could be “exams that would previously been non-consensual.”

    Surgery can have complications, so the patient may be under anesthesia longer than originally planned delaying the practice exam.

  • My wife once told me about how surprising it was that there were a non insignificant number of other women in her med school ethics class arguing that non-consensual exams were just fine.

  • Ah, you’re privileged enough to think you’re insulated from any actual consequences of the election and fuck those other people, right?

    Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool…

  • I was confused about how a network cable was going to kill people for a hot second there.

  • Democracy is a terrible form of government, but it’s worlds better than every other alternative.

  • When has withholding your vote brought about a positive change? It’s not like a boycott because there no financial incentive.

    The only metric that matters when voting is what percentage of active voters chose you, inactive voters have chosen to silence themselves.

  • If the intention of withholding your vote like a boycott is to get a political operative to make a change, the change must be on purpose.

  • Also, work to get more seats filled with democratic butts in other states so we don’t have to prevent all defections. Florida democrats and others seem incompetent right now, seems like it’s prime for a takeover by talented organizers. Do what Harry Reed did with Nevada.

  • Me waiting for someone to point at any time withholding your vote actually brought about measurable change in a positive direction.

  • Because there’s a fundamental conflict between ruling for a “conservative interpretation of the law” and a “my party is always right and needs to retain control” perspective?

  • It’s important to note too that the ones overturning her were appointed by conservative presidents. It’s that blatantly bad.

  • Can you share your education or research background that gives you such strong insight into what is “normal human physiology at 81 years old”?

  • Has anyone investigated the consequences of all the sunlight that’s leaked into the environment because of this disaster? What sort of clean up are we looking at and how long will it take?

  • Only if you are gullible enough to fall for the people muddying the waters. Is Hunter Biden being held to the same standard for his crime that other who did the same are vs is Trump.

    Don’t let them think comparing apples to oranges is apples to apples.

  • I imagine it depends upon your phone and it’s support for USB drives, but I can use my kobo Libra and Clara directly connected to my iPad as a drive and drop the epubs and PDFs on it and have it recognize them.

    There’s also a website that has released its code (so you can run your own) where I can push things through it via the Internet similar to send to Kindle.

    There’s a whole bunch of other reasons that I think the Kobo has the current best eInk device having to do with its interface, but those that are more personal preference related and not the subject of your question. But I’m happy to share if you’d like.

  • It’s awkward phrasing and needs a hyphen between golfing and talented, but I think it’s generally cromulent. The way I read it is that it was a challenge because there’s a large number of members who are talented at golfing.

    That said, when it’s your club, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab them by the trophy. You can do anything.

  • I too am a Minnesota Vikings fan.

  • Aliencels is a top tier pun. 👏🏼
