Twincityhacker posted:Not really? It's more like fancy building = more likely that they at least *pretend* to value justice. If it's a wreck those in power absolutely do not care. Perhaps you too have Kamala brain Some of the worst poo poo imaginable has been signed into law in the fanciest buildings ever constructed, e.g. the Reichstag in the 1930s, or the US Supreme Court Building 1932-Present

But also other indictments will come in so there'll be multiple overlapping trial processes as well as the election, somehow

PostNouveau posted:Just as a percentage game, right? In Manhattan, it was 86% Biden, 12% Trump. I think you can be optimistic and say only half the Trump voters are going to be dead-ender enough to refuse to convict under any circumstance. I don't know stats well, but I don't think it's ironclad for winning that gamble 12 times in a row. You can guarantee that all the wingnut online meeting places are about to get reallllly into voir dire and jury nullification

I AM GRANDO posted:You could make the argument that it only became a world-historic event because trump did so badly at containing it. There have been novel respiratory viruses emerging from China for like 20 years at this point. None of the other ones caught on like this. You could make that argument, if you ignored everything about how it spread like wildfire through Europe first. Trumps response, or lack thereof, definitely made everything much worse globally though

Dull Fork posted:So to you, what news outlets don't 'loving suck'? I'm always looking for more viewpoints. The Intercept is good, if you aren't Reality Winner. It's more about knowing the relative biases and specialities of the different outlets: The Guardian is Labour melt poo poo with a big transphobic streak but the current events are often factual. The BBC is dogshit domestically but decent internationally. Most all of the US MSM are dogshit domestically AND internationally. Al-Jazeera has gone to poo poo in recent years. Euronews is OK for Euro stuff. Financial Times and WSJ are pro-money plutocrats but often give decent coverage of economic issues. All op-eds everywhere are putrid and should be banned.

Professor Beetus posted:If you are media literate and can rub 2 brain cells you can still glean plenty of useful information from US MSM, but you have to be able to dig through the framing. Media literacy is not the ability to know which sources are "good" or "bad" but the ability to read media critically. I mean that was literally my exact post about media sources, it's just that US MSM sources generally aren't worth the effort due to low signal:noise ratio

TheSpartacus posted:I bet you'll be surprised that nonalcoholic beverages actually contain alcohol (no more than 0.5% abv). When I was a kid there were several "shandy" soda drinks that little kids could buy, with 0.1-0.5% ABV. But then again, this was 1980s Ireland. I imagine you would puke from the carbonation long before any sort of non-placebo buzz kicked in

Libs were very good at allowing their objections to Trump to be framed purely as elitism despite Trump being the most privileged lil dandy bitch on the planet who literally got his butler to drive him around in a limo on his childhood paper route. I mean, Trump would have obviously complained about the "liberal elites" persecuting him regardless because he's a grievance golem, but drat it sure was easy for him

gurragadon posted:I think he's running for vice president again. No way Trump goes with Pence again, he's a liability now plus a traitor to Trump. Wasn't Christie one of Trumps choices in 2016 but got talked out of it? Yeah I think Big T's handlers actually blocked a meeting with Christie by keeping Trump's plane on the tarmac or something. They're both disgusting jabronis from the tri-state area, it could work

Epic High Five posted:Oh so Fox News will now be viewed as disreputable by anybody who doesn't instead just claim the fact that they're still operating the same as always means they won the court case, it's just a huge W for Fox News of the dodged bullet type for me. If they didn't consider a settlement a huge win they wouldn't have proposed it. Extremely disappointing that all the most explicit "I did this crime and here's why, and here's me admitting it was a crime I did" evidence and admissions in the world still couldn't rise above the level of a fine, is this the best promise of justice that can be offered by the system? A sad sort of admission that you can do whatever so long as you're rich enough? It's two companies who assessed their odds of winning at trial and multiplied that by the size of settlement divided by their EBITDA and arrived at a conclusion. It doesn't have to be a "big win" for either side

Just lol at thinking the GOP primary wasn't going to be a clownshow in 2024. Meatball Ron is being given the Wrong Advices. There's a clear perverse incentive for campaign staff to encourage candidate's delusions and get a steady paycheck for as long as possible, but "just chill out and don't contest the early primaries" is the electoral version of "Get in loser, we're going losing!"

They didn't even allow females to wear clothes or work until the new Nagus shook things up. If they were willing to pass up that economic activity due to prejudice, I reckon they're gonna need a few more like Rom or Ishka before they get to trans acceptance

GlyphGryph posted:Honestly, that is the incentive to change? He could put someone useful in the position and the average voter wouldn't notice or care. The problems are with political alliances, if anything. He literally could swap in VP Bernie and see a bump in polling, but Biden has never been that guy, Biden sucks, and we don't live in the kind of world where that is plausible

Edgar Allen Ho posted:Putting one of the best senators into a position of powerlessness? I’d think less of Bernie if he took the job, unless we’re rolling the dice on which ancient white man dies first. Fair, I was kind of assuming Biden would die first but there's no real reason to think that other than my fervent wishing. And I assume Bernie has a handpicked successor in mind for his Senate seat? Not saying they would be anything like as effective as Bernie but they'd have some space to operate

Mooseontheloose posted:If I maybe so bold to talk for you. The fact is there is A LOT we don't know about weight, health, and it's connections but we've been sold a lot of what it SHOULD seem like. I was running a lot two years ago and maybe got down to 180 pounds and am 5'7" and was doing calorie calculation for like half a year or so. According to the BMI calculator I was overweight. I was consuming something like 1700-1800 calories a day and quite frankly couldn't get lower with getting into some dangerous territory. BMI is a population statistic which gets frequently misused as a personal health metric. Nevertheless at 5'7" 180 you probably were still kinda high-ish BF% unless your bones are made of titanium. No shade, you were still probably in the top decile of your age cohort.
