Well crap, that looks fantastic.

And how does making it even easier for them to do so help in any way whatsoever?

Well it's getting old.

ohhh my gooood

No we're not.

There IS a difference between blocking a candidate based on a basic numeric requirement like age or the number of terms already served, and the still ongoing litigation that Trump is responsible for the January 6 insurrection (however obvious it is to us that he is). This ruling really seems narrowly confined to Section 3 of the 14th amendment and nothing else.

This will eat Trump up inside though. He can't claim to have a sweeping victory anymore, and he will fixate on this one defeat.

I always saw it as a long shot anyway, and it's definitely something red states would have used and abused if it was affirmed. So in the end I'm not upset either.

I clicked on this thread expecting good news! These climate change articles should really all be in one thread. Not that we probably shouldn't all be aware of the inexorable driving off the cliff in a drag racer that this planet has become, but for some of us the magnitude + helplessness of this crisis we face does nothing good for our mental health.

mmmmmm sweet teats

Oh, I'm not sure at all. Edit: yep that's what it was. Maybe someone mixed the events up or were drawing comparisons.

There was a pic somewhere of the food they served, which was a styrofoam box with a pile of lettuce and sliced tomato on top, and a couple pieces of toast with cheese on them. Like I ate better when I was broke and living in the ghetto.

It has to change, people!

I saw the clip elsewhere and it murdered me. I'm not a dog owner but anyone who has had a special four-legged friend can relate. Damn dude, I'm sorry. I remember you talking about him and I hoped you'd be able to reunite with him some day.

Wow, they haven't lost a step. Back in the day I used to take a Painkiller MP3 and rename it to the level music for Painkiller the game so that I could listen to Painkiller while playing Painkiller. (While optionally also using the game's Painkiller weapon.)

Oh yeah I forgot about that dude. Hopefully his family doesn't forget him on memorial day.

I mean, it's absolutely going to be a case. Although I sort of thought this was settled law already.

The Wintel relationship deepens!

I really think at this point Cate Blanchett is at the IDGAF stage of her career, where she reached astronomical heights of fame and notoriety decades ago and whose name is already etched in the pantheon of legendary actors known for timeless roles in film. What's left for her to do? Oh, I guess Shlock it up with the most outlandish projects she can find (that can actually afford her).

Myself, I never lie about cereal. Although I've been known to enlarge some details to show texture.

This quote here from the end of the article really lays out the long-term goal: This is a war. It doesn't matter if their views are popular or not, that doesn't factor into their strategy. In fact it only HELPS their narrative of Christian persecution. They've known for a long time the voting population has been moving away from extremist Christian views. They've been playing the long game. They don't need or care about the will of the people. The goal through gerrymandering, voter registration restrictions, eliminating polling places in minority communities and on college campuses, and most recently when they upped the ante drastically with the fake elector scheme, voter intimidation, hindering or elimination of mail-in ballots, and the Jan 6 insurrection... That's the real game. Systematic dismantling of the systems of democracy, while sowing the seeds of mistrust among Conservatives in the integrity of our elections. Convince enough people you're right, and put the right people in positions of judicial power, and you have all the pieces for ending democracy, and you didn't even need the majority to do it.

Choose Salvation! Or go to prison!

Interesting

I like them better than Trumpy Bear.

Yeah seriously, dream bigger!
