Because he’ll flip parties (which he’s indicated he’s more than happy to do) and Republicans will have control of the Senate again, which would be an unmitigated disaster, just like every time they have control of the Senate.

“Protections for me, laws for thee.” -- Conservative America in a nutshell.

Uhm, despite the comic book delineation between them, Inhumans and ‘Mutants’ are both mutants. One is mutation through evolution, and the other is mutation through genetic engineering. MCU’s Ms Marvel could be either one.

The cute part of this is that you think this is what the Senate looks like when Republicans are in charge. I’ll give you a hint: it’s *SO* much worse. Right now *NOBODY* is in charge of the Senate. Nobody has a clear majority. If it’s a choice between nobody being in charge and Republicans in charge, you better…

“Man. Manchin is so awful. Let’s boot him out and hand the Senate over to the Republicans. That’ll show ‘em.” — an idiot who doesn’t understand how Congress works.

*ahem*

...if they can work in an indirect (or direct) nod to Telltale’s Walking Dead series, that’d be pretty cool. Lee and Clementine for all the feels.

Agreed. Trump’s action might have been a bridge too far for Liz, but she still supported a lot of what he said and did and the GOP’s agenda as a whole. She’s merely the least awful of a horrifically terrible political party. She’s only ‘good’ when compared to the worst this country has to offer.

There was a nice line that I’m going to paraphrase that ‘describes’ this situation — the turd won’t flush itself.

Ultimately, the immense risk posed by any catch attempt means that unless SpaceX has miraculously gotten the design of everything involved nearly perfect on its first try

Who could have possibly guessed that systems that reward the exploitation and abuse people attract horrible people to run them...

Yeah, I know. It’s terrifying. Roughly 1/3 of American adults need to be involuntarily committed and deprogrammed. GOP conservatism is indistinguishable from a cult, psychologically speaking.

The Tucker-Carlson defense only works if roughly a third of American adults aren’t in their right minds. So either the claim is bullshit, or America is home to the one of the world’s largest population of the clinically insane.

Something about expecting people to work and behave like machines...

Toilet-seat girl!

Given just how *much* bigger that rocket engine is capable of ‘going’ when it ‘goes’ I’d say that was just a bad sneeze. An expensive sneeze, but just a sneeze compared to a full-on RUD.

True, but in the end, it’s still irrelevant on the issue of restricting access. We’re selling literally deadly substances to non-minors all day, every day, without question, with the only use that is, by design, deadly to the user. This is like throwing a ‘safety’ tantrum about improper usage of a lighter while inside…

My only concern about making birth control available OTC is, as mentioned in the article, the significant if rare health risks associated with using them. However, I still support the move simply because cigarettes and vapes and things of that nature are sold without question to anyone over the age 18, and they are…

It’s called the Tolerance Paradox. Look it up.

No. The meaning of their specific “serve” is well defined as a part of the oath they take as an officer of the law — serving the public good. The definition you’re referring to — serving legal papers — law enforcement officers do not generally perform, outside of search warrants.
