I'm not saying you're wrong, but the potential mar a Lago accord turning 10 year treasuries into 100 year IOUs makes that promise less weight and is proof that the US government probably doesn't have as many actual checks on an insane executive than we've been telling people for 200 years

The value is in Bitcoin and associated currencies being great vehicles for money laundering
comment in response to post
It's the same reason any currency is valuable though. All money is fake, gold is useful in electronics but valued far outside of that range and is essentially fake as a store of value. It's all reality people build through consensus rather than anything objective

And he gave that control of the legislature over so he could have an excuse to not listen to progressives in the Dem caucus. He dearly wants to be a Republican and will govern like one at every opportunity

theyve been giving the condescending Adults In The Room lectures to anyone and everyone about everything for so long it's just force of habit now. everyone calm down theres nothing to see here until election year, when you are required to remember we are the Lesser Evil

Turns out that decades of Republicans underfunding education has had some consequences

I have personally talked to a woman who said she was voting for *Trump* so the government would pay off her student loans
comment in response to post
Honestly yeah, he's the reason the 2020 primaries produced Biden which lead to Trump taking power again. That kind of incompetence should result in seppuku, career-wise or literal

Not to disparage his energy but 7.5 mile and 'lifting your body weight' are markers for maybe going to the gym in the last three months

There are conservative punks. They're usually Nazis. 'left leaning moderate punk' is a fucking hilarious concept though

I'm not saying you're wrong, but the Democrats at large are generally against advocating for any of those positions

'Grow up and work on yourself' vs 'society should be reshaped so you can act like a teenager with no consequences forever', which message will resonate with teenagers more

Announcing himself as the least experienced person to ever fly a 737 and then playing harrowing music just before the landing to play with the audience. He's a fucking genius

Adults alive during WWII saw air travel go from theoretically possible to accomplished on a small scale to the b-17 dropping the atom bomb. I have seen phones get smaller and enough resources to solve world hunger several times over flow into building better chatbots. It's over man

You're not really paid though, that's the problem

Psychologists are calling it Grimes Syndrome
comment in response to post
Yeah I do argue this. The broader implications of MKUltra aren't controlling people via LSD, they're the way advertising and UX design are targeted to create dopamine loops in viewers. It's not like they didn't delve further into neurotransmitter research after multiple decades of acid experiments

Lmao the least deserving know it all finally broke

“americans like the idea of extinguishing the sun, if only trump had managed to do it in a way that didn’t lead to permanent night and frigid cold.” it’s just a fundamental misunderstanding of reality.

do not join the federalist society, do not attend federalist society events, do not sit on federalist society panels, do not be polite to federalist society members, do not give tenure to federalist society members, do not publish their works

I hated Messmer more than consort Radahn because the snake stuff that just takes up the whole screen is annoying as hell and it's easier to shield+roll through Radahn's combo with practice. Good luck, use the blasphemous blade if you're already leveling faith anyway and hopefully kill him dead

Crazy to think he would look somewhat competent if Gaetz had gotten in as AG

99% chance they're a finance manager at a car/boat/ATV dealership and spend their days selling overpriced and unnecessary warranties rather than 'managing finances'

Yeah I dated a 21 year old when I was 27 and the generational/maturity gap was too big for me, did not feel good about that at all after a while

Damn you sound just like my dom
