    The question is always ‘disproportionate to what?’

    Their population? Wrong measure.

    Their contribution to
    gun violence? Yeah didn’t think so.

    He’s fucked. Two of his consultants and the Azerbaijani agent who paid off his wife have all pled guilty.

    This is a live performance, so warts and all, but if you like this type of music…

    This song strikes a special chord for me. It randomly came on the radio when I was driving with my brothers about 15 years ago, and we were jamming to it in the car, never hearing it before, but it is so incredibly infectious….cant help but move your leg to the beat.

    Movie, “Self/less,” from 2015 that YouTube seems make available for “free.” Plays with the idea of “what if old/frail/sick people can transplant their minds into healthy bodies?”

    Here’s their house (Michael Douglas and Katherine Zeta-Jones). Apparently they downsized from Bedford (a bit more north) in 2019.

    By the way, thinking about this topic, this is probably the first time ever that the VP debate is at least as important as the presidential debate.

    “The free speech is at its freest when it’s hate speech against the Jews”.

    I sorta get the point.

    Now do Islam, blacks, etc.

    @Mik said in The Rise of the Never Bidens:

    Cabinet level people ARE close.

    Sam Brinton was "deputy assistant secretary of Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition in the Office of Nuclear Energy," many levels removed from Biden along the chain of command; I don't think this counts as "close" to Biden.

    Rachel Levine is the United States "assistant secretary for health" since and an admiral in the United States Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, one level removed from Biden after the "secretary of health and human services." Even if I grant you that this counts as "close" to Biden, you still have to show that Levine is somehow "bad company."

    @Jolly said in MIT ends compulsory political statements:

    Never underestimate a group of pissed men with guns.

    The yielding of power, even violent force, is a function of technology. A 105 lb. woman with a pistol (a more advanced technology) can kill a 250 lb. man swinging a big axe (a more rudimentary technology). If the girls/women control the technology, they too will control the power, the violent force.

    Yeah. Sure.

    How many Mexican cartels are controlled by women? Is the Russian mafia staffed and controlled by women?

    They've got access to the same weapons and technology as the guys.

    The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday denied an appeal from California corrections officials who sought immunity from lawsuits claiming they acted with deliberate indifference when they caused a deadly COVID-19 outbreak

    California Corrections knowingly sent COVID + prisoners into a prison that was COVID free, causing multiple deaths.
