I'm actually not all that familiar with how Doom is rooted in D&D. Can you elaborate?

Being an ATC is one of the most stressful careers out there, and it requires you to be able to think and act quickly and decisively. It's hard as hell to recruit them in the first place, which says a lot about the importance of making sure they don't stay in the job too long. People will die.

Fuck you right back, pal. You think that someone just decided on that limit arbitrarily? Do you have any idea how hard it is to get a government policy or regulation put in place? The reason why it exists is that it was dangerous to allow ATCs to have a longer career.

C'mon, Hank. Everyone knows that taxation is theft.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go drive on a road I didn't pay for, to buy a cheeseburger whose price is artificially deflated by subsidies, from a person who is capable of running a restaurant thanks to the education neither of us paid for.

I heard Aristotle kissed a lizard once just to see what it was like.

He said it was like kissing a lizard.

True story. Or not. All we have are fragments.

But please, tell me more about how you can't grasp the actual themes and messaging of popular media and instead use shallow comparisons to well known stories to make yourself feel like a big boy who belongs at the adult table.

The monorail episode is a critique of hucksters like Musk who squander public funds only to deliver abysmal results.

National high speed rail would be an effective alternative to domestic air travel. It requires planning and careful execution, but it would be to our benefit.

Lisa Simpson, who despite working hard, being of good moral character, and being bright, is being talked down to by a schlubby middle-aged man who thinks he's hot shit.

The Simpsons offers no real critique of Lisa. She is a lens for the absurdity of a world that fails to rise to her level, Homer.

I take back what I said before. Don’t primary Chuck. Run for President. I'd like to vote for you, and I'm not willing to leave MN for NY.

Brain-dead take.

She got a ton of votes from people who also voted for Trump because of her grassroots support - a direct result of her trying to score wins for the working class instead of the donor class.

She is the closest thing to Lisa Simpson we have, and we're lucky to have her.

PRIMARY HIS ASS. You know who I mean.

I know you have so much on your plate right now, but we desperately need a shakeup in party leadership. Between you and folks like Bernie, Crockett, and Walz, I think it's do-able.

Show people what is possible with progressives take the lead.

Yes, but let's not rest on our laurels. He's still on Earth, and that's a problem for everyone.

No, that is inaccurate. Early estimates put the star's age at just over 14b years, but now it's somewhere between 13.7b and 12b years. Other evidence points to it being part of the second generation of stars that formed from the remains of the first generation of stars after the big bang.
