If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.

I doubt she gained anything politically from delaying it in the first place. And if the Trump administration can genuinely stop this, they would have been better off implementing it as planned.

Hopefully this means these 13+ year old GPUs will still work with Wayland compositors that will eventually switch to Vulkan, beyond working with gaming and the like.

In episode 2F09, when Itchy plays Scratchy's skeleton like a xylophone, he strikes that same rib twice in succession yet he produces two clearly different tones. I mean, what are we, to believe that this is some sort of a, a magic xylophone or something? Boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.

In turn, women need to vote like their rights depend on it. Because you might find in a years time that there is a nationwide abortion ban and there is nowhere left to go.

This makes for a good headline but it should not stop you from voting.

Nothing should stop you voting. Even if Harris is predicted to have a 30 point margin, you should push for a 40 point margin. Because even if she wins, the fewer Republicans in office, the more policies the Democrats can implement.

He articulated a feeling that had until then remained unformed: that I was obsessed with achievement in se — not as an end to something meaningful, but to win a social competition.

  • J.D Vance on Peter Thiel

Vance seems to be a vapid social climber with no real principles of his own. I'm not sure if that's better or worse than an outright true believer.

No, that's not how it works. It would be the same as not voting at all, since RFK has no chance of winning.

Vote for Biden if you want to stop Trump.

Republican candidates aren't held to the same standards because Republican voters don't care (or they actually like it).

The most unrealistic part of this is a conservative christian actually reading the bible. Unless he is just using it as a prop which is on form with these types.

This should be grounds for a refund if they are adding it post release.

“Every generation is told, ‘You’re gonna do worse than your parents,’

What? The historical expectation is that every generation will be better off than the last. That hasn't held in recent years, which is a problem.
