First past the post ensures that any party that tries to splinter off dooms both themselves and the party from which they splintered.

What needs to happen is the democrats need to get tea partied.

Note: the following vitriol is solely for Musk. I got no issue with you, just feeling spicy.

Yeah I guess you could get benefits when you were being paid to work for him and his PR team wasn't "KETAMINE!". But those people whose lives his family stole can go fuck themselves cause they don't have a PR team to make people care about them.

His backstory involves being born rich on the backs of his family's emerald mine slaves. Why would you expect better than any other rich asshole?

Yes. It's probably the friendliest Linux distro. But there's still a learning curve so don't go in thinking it's as plug and play as Windows.

Don't we all really?

We also have a Scout. We also call him Scoochy, Scoutabout, Scootums, and You-Motherfucker. He's orange and only uses his brief braincell time for evil. He once turned the gas stove on by himself.

Never thought you would. The comment wasn't really for you.

Can we get a fast painful decline? Minimize how much harm he does to... everyone?

It became a slur back when I was a child in the 90s because people used it as a general perjorative. Doesn't help that it once innocently described a vulnerable minority. When cunts like you decided to use it as a slur, they tied said vulnerable minority to the concept of "this thing is bad" and harmed that community.

I'm not policing your speech. I'm calling you a cunt for using a decidedly shitty term that's been shitty for decades.

Downvoted for casual use of a slur.

No mention of the judge's decision that the firings were likely illegal? That's some shit journalism.

For the uninformed

Actually, that part I'm not worried about. Jackbox is one of my friends go-to end of party games. It's all through your phone and accommodates a good amount of people, slightly game dependent.

Yeah, Biden could have done differently.

You know what would be better? If ~23% of the populous weren't hateful ignorant cultists intent on installing christofascism to their own obvious detriment. To hell with bitching about what democrats do wrong (most things if we're being honest). The blame lies with every republican that voted for mango Mussolini and we shouldn't let them forget it.

As a gay man, there's 0 hope of a gay man winning in America. Full stop.

Oooooohhh. Ok. Thank you.

Not a player either. My understanding is that there are a couple giveaways.

1. AI play very differently than people. The thinking* for AI is shortest term and it's my understanding that it's obvious to people that play. See below.
2. It's possible to look up optimal* moves based on the board state. I would imagine that they'll keep an eye on your browser/system to keep an eye out for such tools.

I've got two for a pair of cats we adopted at the same time.

First was Stusy (pronounced stu-c). He was named after a typo. My partner and I were planning a move and I accidentally misspelled study. We looked at it and decided it was a good cat name, which it was. He was the smartest cat we ever had. He died a couple years ago too young from what the vet said was likely genetic kidney problems.

His brother, our scaredy cat, is Big O. At the cattery (our name for the local cat adoption place), he was the one that wanted nothing to do with us and so we clearly had to adopt him. Every time we pet him he vigorously cleaned that spot. I don't remember what we were going to name him. The cattery named him Big O after the tire place where he was found. He was driven from one small town in Indiana to another, about 50 miles, before he was found in the engine compartment of someone's car who stopped at Big O to check the meowing from the engine. He was Stusy's best friend and while he's still easy to startle, he lets us pet him in controlled conditions (usually us lying down and holding very still) and is the goofiest of his siblings when they're playing.

If they were never getting paid in the first place, did they get fucked?

Why bother? Not like he hears anything with his head somehow up both Putin and Musk's asses. Or would care if he did.

Fallacy of relative privation.

Arguable. Your argument appears to assume that bad doctors (for lack of a faster term) are the dominant problem and my assertion is a reminder that there are many other, more likely candidates. Apologies if I put an assumption in your mouth.

The current medical framework gives incentive to providing an easy, quick, cheap fix to what is often a complex problem.

I feel like the sins of capitalism are tainting the idea of a standard doctor visit. I would hazard that most doctors just want to help their patients, but that's rather philosophical and more or less unanswerable.

I think RFKs solution is neither clear nor doable. I don’t think it even addresses the main cause of the problem.

Fair enough, I misunderstood your stance. I personally think RFK doesn't deserve any substantial defense, hence me getting argumentative. He's an unqualified rich asshole in a position he shouldn't be near and I was apparently in a "shout them down" kind of mood.
