They also don't stay in one place, and can just randomly show up in a place when you're, say, doing stealthy stuff. Suddenly assassinating a whole outpost of orcs becomes "aww shit, Feldûsh is here, and he's immune to stealth attacks" or '"oh no Roggvir just showed up, he's riding a warg and so are the other 4 guys he pals around with".

The issue is what this takes. You need:

1 document proving you are who you say (this cannot be a state or federal ID. I used my birth certificate, which can be difficult and time consuming to acquire if you don't have access to it.)

2 different documents from different sources proving you live where you say (this would need to be a bank statement or utility bill)

You must also provide a document proving your Social Security Number (this can be hard if you don't have the card - getting a new one is similarly painful), AND if your legal name has changed from what's on your birth certificate, you need to provide attestation of that (marriage or divorce paperwork, etc).

So you could potentially need up to 6 documents from 6 different sources, it's still up to the DMV to accept them, and you don't actually get the card for at least another 2-3 weeks at minimum. There's also a fee - in my state it would cost me about $80 after taxes.

Don't forget the Armenian Genocide.

Reminder that West Virginia exists exclusively because of slavery. Especially that part of Appalachia was a HUGE haven for self emancipated people and free black people alike, because if you get deep enough into the mountains, you basically cease to exist as a legal entity unless people want to put a significant amount of effort into reaching you and the same amount in extricating you.

Somehow one of them still invents Tombstone.

Pretty much this. Ever wonder how so many people got killed and mangled during the Industrial Revolution? You're about to find out.

This is the final play of the segregationists. The real, hidden heart of the argument from a lot of people against the DoEd is "the schools aren't allowed to be segregated anymore and that's wrong."

Mark my words, you'll see schools rapidly segregated by race and gender soon enough. Fathers and mothers, I hope you're prepared to teach your daughters how to read and write, because all they'll likely be getting within the next 5 years is home-ec and how to be a submissive wife - and that's even if your state allows them to attend school.

Also where a lot of washouts from the military wind up, often for the same reasons.

Yeah, remember Trump telling those Christians "we'll fix it so you don't have to vote anymore". They don't need their voters when every position down to your city council is directly appointed by your local Lord (Governor).

This isn't even true in a lot of places now. If you have a college nearby, expect your local trade school to have tuition similar to that college.

There's also the fact that Canada is not nuclear-armed, but they sure as hell are nuclear-capable. They know how to build nukes, they have the infrastructure and manufacturing to do so, the country has simply chosen not to do so over the years.

Yup, same shit as Putin. The only measure of the Tsar is how much land they can add to the kingdom during their reign, and Trump is OBSESSED with this idea that he's a master negotiator. Negotiating the purchase of an entire sovereign nation would be the masterstroke.
