Absurd that pointing guns at people to get fake support would be seen as any more legitimate than just having the soldiers do the fake voting themselves.

The biggest state, bigger than many countries. How different can it be from other parts of the same country?

An armed society is a society where people are looking for someone to shoot.

I watched some of the GWB parodies. I never had any interest in watching Trump parodies, and I’d be annoyed to have comedians do them in shows I otherwise liked.

It’s not funny anymore, and it wasn’t really that fun then, although satire is a valid method of political commentary. But week after week, there’s nothing new, nothing that’s more shocking than what was already known. They’re fully and completely terrible persons, who should never have political power. Don’t need to embody them to understand that.

Except they don’t even attempt to look like good people. Satan would think he’s been doing it all wrong, he should’ve just said “I’m here to rule over you all and destroy the world, vote for me”.

I thought the idea was that Republicans are actively working on destroying what has been working fine and is benefitting lots of people, not just on preventing more progress.

AI PC sounds like something that will be artificially personal more than anything else.

Or you could say night is the anomaly, because most places in the universe are stars.

Nighttime is absence. You could say most of the universe is absence, but most matter is stars.

Isn’t that the goal for some people in meditation? Nothingness.

But commercial hydrogen is made in a very carbon-intensive way, although it’s possible to make with zero emissions.

Even in an ideal case, you’re using up energy that could’ve been used to reduce emissions elsewhere.

You mean part of a single episode.

No. They kept her around like she wasn’t someone who should be imprisoned for life, far removed from any position where she could manipulate others.

If they wanted to help others, there was a universe full of people more deserving. Two, even.

Not to mention the fact you say after TNG that the older style was dead as if Voyager doesn’t exist.

Yep.

Lucky they made DS9 before TNG had even finished, then.

We didn’t really get more of the TNG side of things with the TNG movies. Then they moved on to JJA Star Trek, which wasn’t much of anything, not dark, not utopian, just references.

While Discovery was in part based around rescuing an ultra-fascist from another universe.

It took bringing back Picard himself to approach doing what they once did decades ago. And I guess not let the actor have too much say over the script, if that’s what messed up the movies.

It wasn’t with no regard. They were deliberately giving minorities power over majorities and splitting ethnic groups with borders to fuel conflicts.

They should all be able to vote. From prison, too. The punishment never needs to be to take their voting rights away. If they commit fraud, stop them from committing fraud again.

So presumably he hadn’t, because all life in the sea pees there.

Or Poseidon just doesn’t like pools, and it’s a trick question.

The responsibility of parents isn’t just to feed their kids until they’re 18, but to raise them and give them what they need to become independent adults. A responsibility shared with the government through public services and social safety nets.

Without the parents, it should mean the government has all of responsibilities and can’t throw people out on the street if it hasn’t finished the job.

Later that week, Gonzales went to Calvary Church, where a volunteer offered to pray with her and another woman joined in. Gonzales had told pastors at both Calvary and Sagebrush churches that she was homeless and living on the street. One pastor prayed with her and signed her up for a baptism.

Oh, good, there’s someone we can recruit.

Christians are tell, don’t show. If they didn’t call it a loving god, maybe there could be some logic to it.

But the very core of Christianity is that God had his son executed, and for what? Nothing was solved, God is still in charge, God makes all the decisions. There would be no threat of Hell without God to send people there, he could just stop. But they say he hasn’t, and somehow has any measure of love.

Should be illegal. Same as unpaid internships. Pay workers or don’t be a business.

Their options are pack up and leave, or throw down their weapons and surrender.
