    @jon-nyc said in What’s your over/under on when impeachment proceeding start?: I’m talking about proceedings. Jewish Space Laser chick filed articles of impeachment on Biden’s first day in office. You said: Articles were introduced on January 21st 2021, the day after he was inaugurated, by the Jewish Space Laser chick. I think they have one co-sponsor. I said: https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-resolution/438 There was talk earlier, but the actual filing occurred in July. So 6 ½ months. No proceedings were filed for Trump until the time you cited, but one article was filed about 6 months after inauguration. You made it sound like BDS because of the 1 day after inauguration. I simply pointed out that TDS had the courtesy to wait 6 months.

    We just discussed this morning going back to China together to visit her parents next year, if the Covid restrictions are lifted by then. It's a nice thought, but I think the chances are zero.

    Yikes. I've been in some pretty windy landings, but never a takeoff like that.

    @Copper said in "Put him in jail for resisting": That is really bad. Maybe we didn't see the whole story, but I say those cops need some time in lockup. That woman cop needs a good disciplinary talking to about proper dress. For one, she appears to be wearing nail polish. Secondly, she has visible body art - tattoos. I doubt any of that is regulation uniform or dress for a patrol cop.

    @Rainman said in No Mo Coal: @Horace said in No Mo Coal: I was young and naïve when he was president. Yes, I remember! Those were such endearing qualities you used to have. We all remember! Young, and naïve. Naïve and young. Now you're worldly, sophisticated, old. Bummer. Was more fun being young and naïve, huh. But at least now I am more fully equipped to help the world. If only it opened its mind to my teachings. Just as soon as I achieve total consensus on TNCR, I will start work on the rest of the internet. Should be any day now.

    I haven’t spent any time on this case but some time ago I predicted that “Chevron deference” will fall under this court. I maintain that view, and I suspect that for some other justices the facts just weren’t right in this case.

    There isn’t anything meaningful to worry about. No matter how much damage leftist rioting causes, the risk they pose can be measured, by the existentialometer, as exactly zero. Threats posed by Republican candidates, on the other hand, measure as non-zero on this fair and balanced contraption. The exact threat level measured by the existentialometer is, for reasons of national security, kept secret. But it is greater than zero, and those of us with a conscience know how that compels us to vote.

    @Jolly said in Ranked choice voting?: @jon-nyc said in Ranked choice voting?: @Jolly said in Ranked choice voting?: No. Look at the absolute shit-storm in Alaska. Meh. It would be difficult to make the case that it changed the outcome. Begich voters preferred Pelota to Palin, which they communicated directly. Look at the Senate race, lad. The one in 2010, where Democrats and Republicans alike wrote in enough ballots to get Murkowsky voted in over both the Democratic and Republican candidates? What better evidence could you need that Alaskans consider the candidate over the party and the true preference of the electorate might be someone other than a party favorite.
