Re-read this thread. You’re the one who made it about you and me. I’ve got no beef with you.
Which part was the wild take? That his own Supreme Court stood in opposition of his request, or that the orange man can’t string together a coherent sentence for more than 90 seconds?
Dems lost for a host of reasons I’ll happily elaborate on. That does not change the fact that I believe the voting populace of the United States may have made a critical judgement error.
Dementia Don is a now a documented felon. Even his own Supreme Court judges believed this was the right thing to do.
I recommend the book Burnout Society
The author makes a case that we are living in an achievement society where the individual becomes both master and slave in the endless pursuit of doing more. We have eliminated the thoughtful solitude of boredom. We have become obsessed with doing and no longer know how to not-do for fear of falling behind.
A good insight from the book raises the point that in the Christian mythology god makes the day of rest the holiest of days.
The parent comment is an observation. Any preference for D is strictly in your mind.
The Rs already made their selection. Their strategy is locked in. The D’s can still put in a more able fighter. Anyone who claims Trump is as sharp as someone 20 years younger than him is delusional.
All the Dems have to do is pick anyone under 65 and they will win. The only reason no one has noticed Trump’s mental decline is because he never made much sense anyway. A magic 8 ball has a more cohesive thought process than the orange man.
The whole thing really.
Identity, reviews, discovery, backend. Run a proper relay and then push the rest client-side or build DVMs to meet specific needs. Hell you don’t even have to run the relay to get it started.
Once you see it, it can’t be unseen.
Love the idea and the execution.
Website needs some work and ability to backorder. Whoever this is, good job and keep going!

You misunderstand me. Allow me to clarify.
Many, if not all, Christians believe that without their holy myths, the world would descend into rape and murder. Those people would commit rape and murder if there were no cosmic punishment and so their true ethics are shown.
Christian ethical values are based on fear of punishment rather than fully realized empathy and moral understanding.
You can be a good person without talking to sky daddy in the dark.
“Looks like CNN has unwittingly thrown Joe Biden under the bus by running a live poll during the debate…”
You see the confusion, right?
I don't hate Christians, I just sort of pity them.
In general, they lack ethical values beyond “big bad sky daddy gonna get you” and treat their short lives as nothing more than entrance exams for a hand-wavey promise at a second, better life (which I’m sure they’d squander, too, if given the chance).
I’ve yet to meet a Christian that behaves anything like the Christ they supposedly emulate.
