The grifters in charge can always find money in the government for their big money base, which most large farms are now. Farm to Taber did a video on this a few months back when the soybean thing popped up.

So hate him, not the kid. If the kid does something to deserve it after coming of age, so be it, but otherwise don't let your trauma because of current events kill your empathy to the point where you're insulting children.

I'm actually going through unemployment, so it's even worse. :-/ But before that, I was at one of the favorite kicking boys of the Internet, and before that, working in *shudders* MMOs.

If we allow the courts to disqualify candidates, I am worried that that it'll be abused (i.e. "here's a felony for protesting at an ICE facility, tough luck on your campaign"). The veto against criminals into office is supposed to be the electorate, and it's distressing that we cannot rely on it.

They don't need to overthrow it. They just need to exploit its weaknesses like a rules lawyer at a D&D table that no one else likes.

But are they lasting mad, or are they oh-my-bribe-subsidy-came-in-so-let-the-grift-continue mad? I kinda suspect the latter.

He means it's a counterpunch to prop 50 here in California. C'mon, you know that. I was surprised when Kansas *didn't* do it, but this is the expected next domino.

If you think indie devs have it tough with demands, imagine working in AAA and constantly seeing posts saying that the games you release clearly show that you don't love games. At least we have community folks to handle the unreasonable folks, but yeesh.

Hey, hey, whatever problems you have with Musk, leave the progeny alone. One, at least, has turned out pretty well despite him.

...generation renders them unable to engage in the sorts of political compromise that permit coexistence. What do we do then? In the past communities were local, but now one is as likely to find community with people far away, so we can't use the old "draw a border" solution to separate them.

Let's say you're wrong, because I will be happy if you're right (and I agree with you that it's worth trying to present better alternatives to the current political climate of fear and bullying, even if I personally think they're doomed to failure). Let's say that the trauma sustained by this...

I need to go rewatch, but my initial thought wasn't that he didn't know, but that he couldn't believe they were stupid enough to try to fight Adam? As for the Alastor/Charlie deal - did Angel know?

Honestly, I was speaking from an 80s to 90s transition, so 2004 is relevant to what I thought I'd heard. We received harsh anti-hazing lectures as kids. Admittedly, I was playing US high school, not Canadian juniors, but we had an NHLer come from our program so it's not *that* distant.

Is there tmuch for Angel to reveal? The crew, in general, live pretty authentically. I can't imagine trust falls were interesting to Vox.
Though, if there is something, the sheer volume of things that Vox would find uninteresting provides a plausible cover - he just got bored and missed a detail.

Credit to Biden, though. For whatever reason, Southern Democrats really like him. I was a Warren supporter, and disappointed that the candidate was Biden, but he himself impressed me back then.

I'm not a Clinton supporter (though I did vote for her in the general). Their argument has been that combative primary campaigns can find and exploit weakness in a campaign that the Rs might not otherwise, giving them weapons. I don't fully buy it, but that's the thought out there.

...politics has primed the current generation towards less trust and more authoritarian belief. And the global rise in ethnostate belief...well, let's just say that the anti-globalists won, and that's not good if you believe in human rights.

Oh, I have very, very bad news for you there, in terms of the kids, in terms of how mental heuristics works (and how strongly the belief in parental supremacy is baked into culture) and in terms of the horde dying off. At best, even if they reject the name "Trump", the trauma of modern...

"The SCOTUS has no immunity from the law."
Bradley v. Fisher says they do, under the concept of judicial immunity. You can't just make things up. Try for impeachment if you can, but don't live in a fantasy world where fact doesn't apply.

There's plenty of Clinton supporters who take umbrage that she had to compete against Bernie in a primary at all. That's why.

The president can't pardon state charges, only federal. There's a huge question of whether they can get a conviction because of how qualified immunity works, but I'd at least like to see someone challenge it so that we have that question settled.
