Hyrax Attack! posted:WA state governor Jay Inslee not going to seek fourth term. I thought he was doing a fine job, not perfect but competent & solid on environment. GOP ran a nobody in 2020 who got trounced, but I’m always worried a weak Dem and not obviously insane GOP candidate in a red year nationally could make WA the next Wisconsin, came awful close in 2004 by like 200 votes. If the GOP was going to take the seat it would be after Inslee's lock down mandates, even the new assault rifle ban isn't going to piss the chuds off as much as that. I'm still a little salty about them shuttering all the State Parks during that period.

Mustang posted:The tepid response of Democrats to Republican fascism and corruption is pathetic. "Look, Mustang, if we do anything to reign in GOP corruption, it might also reign in our corruption, and expose that we're also wholly owned by corporate interests, and we can't have that"

Can crypto just loving die already? I mean, the last year has been really funny with the idiots losing the money and going to jail and whatnot, but that's a really easily erasable carbon cost right there.

Loden Taylor posted:fuckin lol at "Marine Core" Holy poo poo, never thought the DoD would be stupid enough to pierce that particular veil. Me, and almost all my friends in the Navy that I talked to about this stuff just lied on our forms about this stuff, like our recruiters told us to. Same with the weed. This is also going to bias out anyone from the middle class that has access to voluntary medical care. I'd like to think this will force the services to change their relationship with mental health care and healthcare in general, but I know it somehow won't. Like maybe they'll let asthmatics carry Albuterol on a submarine, instead of saying "don't tell me about that, that's a disqualifying condition" -real words told to me by a real doctor.

I had a dude in my division that would regularly poo poo his pants on the 0300-turnover watch. Like once a month. I dunno if it was IBS, the fact that he literally would not eat vegetables (threw a no poo poo temper tantrum because he got lettuce and tomato on his burger once) or if being a worthless racist piece of poo poo makes you just unload in your tighty whities or what.

mlmp08 posted:China doesn’t really seek a war. They seek credible counter-intervention. A brilliant pull from the United States' old playbook. "Our ship was attacked in this here port, we have no choice but to preserve peace through military means." FR though, most of China's imperialist ambitions are local, for now, and the main reason they can't act on them is that the West still holds the purse strings on the global economy. China has no desire to become a pariah state again, and their global ambitions are better realized through patience as the West destabilizes itself.

If DeSantis gets the nomination I'm buying a million of those hats and air-dropping them over Texas, anything implying any other State is superior to Texas might be enough to turn the State blue.

I mean, Trump talks and posts like someone whose brain is made of delicious pudding and is actively dribbling out their ear holes and that motherfucker still got elected.

Washington already famously stole money earmarked for schools by dumping lotto funds into the general fund to obfuscate what money was going where. Big fan of taxing the rich, and looking at that law it's pretty well aimed at only big-r Rich folks. And we desperately need more schools in the state. I'm sure by next year everyone affected will have figured out how to move their assets around to tax shelter from it though, and we'll have a massive budget shortfall.

I'd say less true, the USSR mostly collapsed from internal pressure, the Empire of Japan and Third Reich were crushed out of existence by external pressure.

I'm sure you have local assets like SAR/Fire/Project Rubicon that would do it for the experience alone. This is unironically the future libertarians want. If those people wanted to be rescued from that building they should have found a Free Market solution. And no, you're not crazy, the fucks that run that city government should be
