I agree, earlier seasons had the right balance

I also think parties need to put forward people with executive experience, such as Governors and Mayors. Senators have only tangential experience

I madr some egg fried rice in honor of this story

Lindsay Ellis's Game of Thrones video?

If I can't truly know how I'd behave, then this discussion is pointless.

I claim that you don't know how you'd truly behave, and that people are generally decent and wouldn't harm others if there were no consequences

I managed to get a screenshot of that too

"Meta, knowing the FTC is about to ream them, fishes for goodwill"

Just because The Boys is gory and pessimistic doesn't mean it's realistic

Plot twist: they were 3.5 books

Change in the party has to come from within. Even though Sanders didn't get the nomination, he pushed the entire party a good bit to the left.

More important than that is to get involved at all levels. It's not as flashy as the Presidency, but your vote for your local school board or town council carries a lot more weight than it does nationally.

If you're feeling very spicy, run for one of those positions

I can't be bothered to look up the exact passage, but wasn't part of Genesis God giving dominion over the animals and plants?

That sounds like the opposite of "God will bail us out of our troubles"

For death to happen, but the sudden loss of blood pressure causes instant unconsciousness

That's a rather phallic statue

In other souls games, that stutter was caused by invaders connecting to your session. It throws me off every time it happens in Elden Ring for some other reason

I don't think they're wrong that it's easier to train people in-person, it's just not worth the cost of going back into the office

That's impressive

"Smoother and rounder than a bowling ball" is my usual comparison

Bless them for it

That's a constitutional monarchy, not a democracy
