Her parents clearly didn’t drop her on her head enough as a child...

Voting Republican -- telling the rest of the world “I got me and mine, so fuck you and yours.”

Everything you just said is exactly *WHY* they deserve each other.

Almost certainly.

Honestly, the two of them seem to be ‘just desserts’ for the one another. The ‘appropriate’ punishment would have been to keep them married, in the same house, for the rest of their lives.

They’ve also given not-Republican states plenty of ammunition to undermine the legitimacy and authority of the Supreme Court, too...

If these pro-fascism Republican-controlled states can write laws to affect OTHER STATES, well you stupid MFers, it can be done RIGHT BACK AT YOU.

All part of the predatory, have your cake and eat it too, late-stage capitalism hellscape Corporate America has spent the last ~50 years building.

The absurdity of that is not lost on me either.

And in case you wanted to lose further respect for America (if any remains), these folks are less than a drop in the bucket of America’s racism epidemic. See: 70 million assclowns fighting to recrown King Trump.

Indeed. All this really signals is that nobody outside of the review process has thrown up any roadblocks. Yet. Anyone paying attention to the aerospace industry is intimately familiar with how badly the usual suspects want to stop the SpaceX steamroller, and that they’re more than happy to use any methods…

Yeah, I would say ‘thread the needle’ is a whole lot closer to the truth given the kind of scrutiny the whole project has been under. Legitimate scrutiny, given the very real dangers a flying skyscraper filled with high explosives presents if anything goes wrong.

Is it wrong that after reading through this, what came to my mind was creating a ‘world-specific’ kind of chat-bot integration into the next Elder Scrolls (or games like it) for players to hang out and chat with, coupled with speech-to-text and real-time generated procedural speech...and the whole world comes ‘alive.’

Nah. A laundry pyramid. Gotta maintain that plausible deniability...you know, the one they use to dupe people into giving them money to keep the scam running. Because people are stupid.

I’m of two minds on this issue (though not in equal proportions). There’s the obvious hostility I have, which is well-earned, and I feel no particular need to elaborate on, since there’s nothing I can say that hasn’t been said by a thousand other people.

The economy inflated as a consequence of a series of massive get-rich-quick scams (crypto being a big one), which produced nothing more than the illusion of wealth, which duped people into believing their ‘money’ was working for them. Guess what happens when people start withdrawing wealth that never existed in the…

And that’s if they don’t try! They could milk it for 10x that much with a little effort!

I’m not saying it’s a problem. I’m just saying the typical character style doesn’t exactly lend itself to readily identifiable genders. If you think that’s a problem, that’s on you.

That at least makes a reasonable amount of sense, if no less eyerolling for how it started, since invertebrates also aren’t fish, nor are fish invertebrates.
