    The tl;dr that I've heard is that Wisconsin is hopelessly gerrymandered to the point it's essentially held hostage. Which does track with Republicans generally. Trump almost getting reelected in 2020 is more to the stupidity intricacy of the election than anything. He's a strange figure in that he's an unpopular populist, having never won the popular vote and having half the country despise him. I'd like to say that the coup hurt him, but I honestly doubt it. If anything that helped secure his base. Rhonda Sanctimonious is a great name, no doubt there. Florida and New York were the outliers this year. I'd like to say that his opponent being a moderate Republican probably helped him out, but Florida is crazy so who really knows?

    Yeah, I think Wisconsin is especially bad where over half the state voted for Democrats but they only have 30% of seats. Though I could be confusing national reps with local there. Regardless, it's clearly unequal. The big takeaway is that most people are very turned off by the culture war being waged by Republicans and by Trump. While Trump may get dumped (we can excuse a coup, but draw the line at losing a midterm), I think the GOP donors are mostly coastal elites who live in blue cities and are obsessed with culture war stuff so I doubt they're going to drop the panics they've been pushing very easily. This is probably a boon for Democrats in electoral terms, but a very dangerous thing for regular people who don't want to be gunned down. RIP Club Q. New York was a combination of (failed) gerrymandering and a fake crime wave promoted by the media. I'm not too sure what to think about Florida, my gut tells me Democrats went to close to the center there by getting a former republican and a cop to run, which is likely to not to appeal to more leftwing folks while centrists and right-leaning folks already have Rhonda Sanctimonious and Little Marco to vote for. Who else would run? Bernie is done at this point and I think AOC is too young. At this point I don't see Biden not running or anyone to replace him. Well if we figure that every dollar of propery damage is worth 10-100 lives, then breaking several windows is worse than the Holocaust. Antifa confirmed for the real nazis.

    We can blame Cuomo for losing 4-6 seats in New York tbh.

    Why ask questions you already know the answer to? A reply to that thread illustrates quite a bit. The forced birthers have a long history of assassination and terrorism, even going as far to blow a doctor's head off in a church. Yet these clowns try to make pro-choice folks as the real drivers of violence, despite evidence to the contrary. These folks are either malicious liars or incredibly ignorant. You naughty But to break out of the parody and speak honestly, that is pretty much how such folks operate. When a media personality claims that schools are putting out litter boxes for students who identify as cats because someone showed her a video, it gets picked up and believed by several media figures and politicians despite not holding up to basic scrutiny*. When a data scientist explains how right-wing terrorism is more violent (to people, not property), it gets disbelieved by the same folks who bought into catkin children because "what about aunt teeefuh". *fun fact, the instances of litter boxes in schools is to accommodate children needing to relieve themselves during a school lockdown in the event of a shooter.

    Edit: posting on a phone, forum not nice to quoting Not consequences for the editors who pushed it through without bothering to get a second source. I don't doubt that LaPorta ****ed up and even may have lied (though the explanation sounds like management throwing someone under the bus to me), but the second editor is laughably irresponsible.

    You make good points But one life per dollar seems low ? Surly ten lives per dollar is more fair ? Those businesses worked hard and the people killed may have been on welfare ?

    I've read the next volume and can confirm it gets worse, at least in terms of what is happening to the kids. Poor Akira. Edit: Chainsaw Man 7 So I was expecting a long fight, but it looks like the Eternity Devil doesn't last as long as eternity. Denji finally gets a kiss but.......swallows more than he can chew. The show is great, so far I'd say the biggest weakness is that the devils aren't particularly interesting, but I've been spoiled by JoJo where the monster Stand user of the week is incredibly memorable.

    I guess I'll have to wait until after dinner for chainsawman. The Narutaru manga is worth reading, but the part (volume 8 for me) right after the season finale of the anime is....yeah. The anime tames somethings down as well for sure. Hoshimaru is still there with his blank stares but.....(spoiler for the anime)

    I don't recall seeing this here I suppose it's funny in a way. Which is better than the "ironic" guru, who is funny in no way, not even ironically bad. Low quality and not looping correctly fit though. Stop being naughty

    Narutaru 9-13 Well that was something. Unfortunately it appears that the anime was only half of the story and I'll have to finish it with the manga. The anime could stand on its own in many ways.....but I think it introduced a few too many elements that entice with mystery and haven't been delved into. And for some reasons, everytime I see Hoshimaru I laugh. The deadpan expression when he shows up just sets me off.

    Well I know who JP Sears is now. Thanks for that I guess, in the off chance I happen to see a video of his in the future I'll know to close it immediately. Anyways I think that by far the funniest thing about "defund the police" is that it never happened. The closest we've seen it happened is one major US city reducing the police budget by a whopping 1% (and that reduction may have been due to inflation rather than reallocation), with police still being the biggest thing the city spends money on. Yet there is such an enduring panic from people who simultaneously think that the gubbermint needs to spend less money. Between this, the CRT panic, the homophobic and transphobic panic, and concerns about election integrity you have a substantial number of people who are working themselves up to fascism (and a lot who are already there) over things that don't exist. This isn't going to end well.

    Narutaru 5-8 I'm not going to summarize it because spoilers and the show is actually good, though it does feel uncanny. With JoJo, the show is so weird that summarizing it makes it sound too unbelievable. Narutaru isn't really like that, it's believable in broad strokes and feels like someone hid Evangelion in a shoujo wrapper. Yet there is still something off about it even still, and I can't quite put my finger on it. Maybe it really is an eldritch creature in the form of an anime.

    That was the inspiration. It really is a damn good sandwich. Now I want donuts.
  18. PK htiw klaw eriF
    Butter and brie baguette. Definitely a good sandwich.

    Narutaru 4 Both of our heroines are traumatized from Hoshimaru killing teen Pol Pot. Another friend shows up, I can only imagine what Hino-chan's deal is gonna be. Yeah it doesn't sound like it.

    The muskrat has called Trump's suspension a mistake for some time now. If the poll would have failed, Elon would have done it anyway and said that he cares more about principles than popularity or something. lmao
  21. PK htiw klaw eriF
    I don't think JoJo has ever been realistic on that front

    It depends on your driving, a good amount of drivers are playing.

    That only applies when it negatively affects someone conservatives dislike, when it negatively affects reactionaries it needs to be made illegal.
