Violence should never be the *first* answer to anything except violence.
We are well past the first answer to these problems though, and the problems are being made worse. If you keep making a problem worse, it eventually becomes tantamount to violence, to more and more people.

Yeah, the main reason for the veteran favoritism in government positions is a self-serving memory of history.
Many empires were ended by old unemployed soldiers.

Careful about the audihd branch of the skill tree. Sure, you get more special interest slots, but without a rare medication drop, you can't really develop those special interests fully. The hyperfocus buff is just too unreliable.

Oh god, I just realized. This is what happens when the government is technologically dependent, run by the technologically illiterate, and manipulated by technocrats who control everything they see online.
It's a fuckin' coup route via your grandma who believes everything on 'the facebooks'.

"Yeah, I'll take one of each, please." Shortly afterward, human civilization collapses as every is subsumed into the gender pile. Except for the asexuals, but they last a handful of generations at best. The earth is consumed by a writhing mass of self improving genetalia.

I don't know why I'm like this, but saggy old man balls. The word I'm converting it to in my head is the adjective pendulous.

Tells fishing stories, and then you find out later that the other people in the boat were a god and a mindflayer. He didn't think those were important details. They caught a trout THIS BIG though.

"I don't understand. My foot was disobeying me when I told it to stop bleeding, so I shot it. It is bleeding more. I will try shooting it with a higher caliber bullet."

One of them should be just a photo of a cup of coffee. Maybe cuphead too, but that's kind of repeating the same joke, and that doesn't work unless all the images are the same joke. With maybe the last image being just out of left field, like overly buff fanart of a children's cartoon character.

The point is to have the fig leaf of a trial so the uneducated complacent masses believe it to be fair, even if it isn't.
There are people who genuinely vote for Putin, not because they agree with everything his government really does, but because they believe everything they are told.

I hope they learn.
I mean, I hope far worse things than learning happen to them specifically, but if those don't happen, I at least hope they learn.

Obsessed with the potential of future populations while ignoring the potential of those currently stuck in poverty traps. For such a long time scale, it's extremely shortsighted.
I wonder how many potential Einsteins starved to death or died of preventable diseases?

It's not a curse, they are just haunted by the ghost of Rosemary Kennedy's frontal lobe.

Ideally, the house and senate flip in 2026, and they actually impeach the fuckers for all the illegal shit they've already tried to do.

I really, really hope that Trump stays alive throughout his presidency, but gets too ill to run again. Trump is a narcissist, and if something stupid he agreed to do makes him look bad, he'll kill it and blame someone else.
JD Vance doesn't give a shit about being unpopular.

Correction, 2/8, and the second, his graduate assistant, had testimony that contradicted the authors testimony

Yeah, the Rosenhan experiment was at least partially falsified, and nobody figured out until after the guys death. They reviewed his notes and found that they could only account for 2/7 of the subjects, and one was the guy who wrote the article, the other was his assistant.

Things will not always get better. But you will. If you keep on going, you will get better.
