The libs are claiming Harris lost because people are racist and sexist, but fail to realize that those who are voting based on those metrics were already voting for Trump, even back when Biden was running.

Actually, tetris is really a commentary about the brief and fragile ethnostate in Constantinople as the Byzantine empire fell to the Ottoman empire.

Suctions cups near the top are all but worn away.

Look into the recent gas executions in America, they are horribly botched. People writhing and coughing for minutes before dying.

Beheading sounds solid, living for a moment as just a head seems more interesting than suffocating for minutes.

Perhaps being tied to a lightning rod on a blimp as you sail through a storm cloud? Or maybe a forced march through a minefield? Polevault into a volcano? MMA match against a bear, with winner gaining their freedom?

Makes me think of a community trying to enjoy themselves under threat of impending nuclear strike, or some situation akin to Vivarium.

As soon as they start to look smug about their appearances, I berate them heavily.
