This is the wrong approach.

People are having too many kids!

Heterosexuality is the problem. We need to tear sexuality and gender down.

I think generally anything that is considered an attempted <whatever>, the judicial system takes into account the intent of the person who is being accused. If the intent was to assassinate Trump, and the person had everything they needed to do it, and would have done it if they had not been stopped, then a real attempt was made.

Right, I think that this is really the only thing that comes close to an apology speaks for itself and the type of person Trump is. Every success is because of him and every failure is because of someone else.

Had to look this one up, Trump did issue an apology about grabbing women by the pussy, but it was probably not sincere, and only done to better himself than actually have remorse for his actions.

Did uptobox provide seed boxes for torrenting, or what was the service like?

FWIW this isn't always true. A few months ago, I needed to add an email to my Zelle account on Chase, and had to call them. I initiated the call and they did issue a text message verification to the phone number in my account while on the phone to confirm.

Wow TIL about the use of underscore in an interactive session.

Giving her the benefit of the doubt that she isn't a Russian agent, if she doesn't understand how the Electoral College works, then it makes sense she doesn't see herself as a spoiler and a waste of a vote. Clearly in the past 20ish years, she must have come across FiveThirtyEight and, so even a guess of 538 would be somewhat reasonable. 600 just shows lack of reasoning skills and/or knowledge of how the electoral college is made up.

Also this bit from The Simpsons

I assume that since the deadline has past for some states, Vance has to be on the ballot, even if he drops out. Trump has to carry him to term (pun intended). For example, RFK Jr. dropped out, but will still be on the ballot.

If these terrible people are elected and do not take the oath of office, then presumably the 25th amendment takes effect, and a new VP is appointed by the president, or the VP elect ascends to President if the presidency is vacant.

On the wayback machine, for 2001-09-12, they have this:

In light of recent events, The Onion is not publishing new material this week.

The Onion will return Sept. 26, though The Onion A.V. Club is new. Features include interviews with Barbara Ehrenreich, George P. Pelecanos, and Paul Collins. Click here to enter.

Had to look it up, here's the link: https://theonion.com/issue-37-34-the-september-11th-issue-1828969352/

Also "The Scary Door", a twilight zone type show within the universe of Futurama.

Don't worry, Putin is his guarantor for the loan.

"Winning the battle is worth losing the war"

Are people trying to reclaim Pepe? I watched the documentary and feel for the original artist, but the character is ruined in my mind with too much baggage.

If I told my boss I have concepts of a plan during an important call with clients, I'd be fired. The fact he said this thinking it would absolve him of having to actually outline actual policy shows how empty the campaign is on anything of substance.

I have great hopes for this meme and hope it is as influential as "binders of women" in showing the absurd thinking behind the most important job in the world.

Trump has been the wildcard and basically gone against every norm for someone running for office. In 2016 that was more unexpected and the electorate had a clear anti-establishment candidate they could get behind (even though he lost the popular vote).

I think the trick has worn off and we now know how to deal with his antics, plus he's aged and less coherent. Also he was the establishment for 4 years, and can't be the wildcard candidate he once was.

I think Vivek Ramaswamy was trying this playbook during the Republican primaries but failed to account for the cult of Trump and the racism in the party. Maybe it would have worked against someone who wasn't a former president or if Trump was sent to prison sooner.

This is kinda the plot of a Black Mirror episode, Striking Vipers.

I see I misread this and skipped the NOT in the meme, so thought this was pro racist couch fucking. Thanks for clarifying.

Now do VHS vs. Beta Max. Better specs don't always make a better product. This is coming from someone who uses Android, 3 or 4 of the specs I don't really care about. posts like these just divide us into tribes and that's not useful for anyone.

the only poll that matters is the actual election

I really want to be pleasantly surprised therefore I don't think Florida can pull it off and will vote for the weird fascists. Prove me wrong FL.

I guess I never thought about this but are the alec baldwin and harrison ford Jack Ryans the same person? Ben Affleck was assume is a reboot, but now I don't really know.

The issue isn't really people on the fence for Trump or Harris but mainly with generating turnout. After Biden's poor debate performance, people didn't change their mind and decide to vote for Trump, they became apathetic and maybe wouldn't show up to vote.

Harris doesn't need to persuade people to abandon Trump, she needs to get people excited to show up to vote.

I feel like I know all the references here but am still really confused. Is this pro-Trump/Vance? The up vote to comment ratio (on my instance) is high which is sus. What's going on?

How'd they forget about City Limits?

One of Vance's former friends detailed the downfall of their friendship as Vance rose in politics. Despite their differences they were still friendly until 2021. Full article : https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/27/us/politics/jd-vance-friend-transgender.html

During their last text exchange that was outlined in the article, they had this to say:

“I know I can’t change your mind but the political voice you have become seems so far from the man I got to know in law school,” wrote Nelson, later explaining their position “as a trans person who accessed needed health care so I could live a full life.”

It does seem like Vance did 180 from someone equating Trump to Hitler to Trump's running mate in just a few years.

Right, there were 52 other Republican senators who could have had some spine and voted for their country over their party, but didn't. If anyone should be singled out for being at fault, it's Mitch McConnell, who voted against Trump's second impeachment conviction, even though he stated "There's no question that President Trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of the day". As the senate majority leader, he could have whipped the other Republicans to stand up to Trump, but didn't, effectively finalizing handing the party over to Trump.

Mitt Romney was literally the only Republican senator who voted to remove Trump for both impeachment trials. Not sure what you're referring to but all the other Republicans voting party over country are to blame.

Had they impeached Trump after Jan. 6th the. Trump would be ineligible to run for president now and we wouldn't be in this mess

Regardless of the altercation with the employee, is there no enforcement in that Section 60 rule which prohibits political campaigning? Why even have that if it's not enforced? Seems like this is just enabling a rabid base to be the attack dogs for an unhinged person running for president.

Not sure if it's what you're looking for, but I'd say the mystery of the dead bear cub in central park 10 years ago. This was minor news back then and basically was forgotten about, until RFK Jr. (former third party presidential candidate) admitted to being the person behind it, confessing it to a confused Roseanne Barr.

Not sure the genre or trope, but Poker Face (and 6 Feet Under), the additional subgenre for me is "who's gonna die in the first scene".

There's a whole Wikipedia article about the legality of it: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitutionality_of_the_National_Popular_Vote_Interstate_Compact

With this Supreme Court, my rule.of thumb is they will always pick the worst side of a debate, even if that goes against precedent and the constitution.

This is just a bandaid and the conservative justices on the supreme court will strike it down for some stupid reason.

I'm particularly interested in using the Don't Ask Me license

36 minutes?? TL;DW? I skimmed through and it's just two people talking (with a lot of background noise), maybe about AOC? It didn't seem to even include any clips or other first hand sources of what she said.

Here's a list of YouTube channels which have < 1M subscribers who probably deserve more views

• Almost Friday TV
• Bobby Fingers
• CinemaStix
• Dime Store Adventures
• Now You See It

What do you mean building our own systems?

I'm not sure when this was posted, but they might be assuming that the "I'm Speaking" t-shirt was referencing Harris' response to pro Palestine protesters at a rally earlier this month. I had certainly forgotten about the 2020 debates.

What's funny is at the time of the acquisition, Spiderman, Fantastic 4, and X-Men film rights were held by Sony and 20th Century Fox, but they are heavily featured in the image.
