Thanks, I'd like to end up somewhere that isn't like playing fucking Russian Roulette. I'll take one of those Nordic countries where everyone's got enough, they pay teachers like doctors, and people actually care about science.

Wow. The argument against trans women in sports is already unscientific enough. Why is chess even split into gendered categories? This just makes zero sense.

The incumbent president always runs.

Not always. Yes, usually, but definitely not always. See, for example, in the last 100 years:

  • Johnson in 1968 (he knew he had no chance against RFK and had alienated a lot of the base with the escalation of the war in Vietnam)

  • Truman in 1952 (low polling because of the war in Korea and other domestic issues)

  • Coolidge in 1928 ("The Presidential office takes a heavy toll of those who occupy it and those who are dear to them. While we should not refuse to spend and be spent in the service of our country, it is hazardous to attempt what we feel is beyond our strength to accomplish.")

Granted, all three of these men served more than one full term in office because they each had taken over after the previous president had died, but each had the ability to run for an additional term and chose not to. Anyway, it is no more true that the incumbent president always runs than it is true that the VP always runs for the presidency at the conclusion of that term.

What other orientation could he possibly put it in? The dude rolled a nat 20. If he can't get it to fit after a roll like that, then there's really no hope.

Just to be clear, examples from outside the UK are ok?

I think they are both good examples. Cruz is the example I specifically think of, but that doesn't make good bad!

We all know they're in Mississippi, but there are chapters in some good states, too.

That photo of Ted Cruz phonebanking for Trump after Trump straight up insulted Cruz's wife? That one photo was all I needed to know about the direction things were headed in for the Republicans.

Considering how much hair Neelix had, I wonder if he tried to convince Kes to ignore the razor

 

Would it be possible, in the formatting bar below the text boxes, to have a button that will automatically create a link to an instance or communities? (And usernames now that I think about it?) I keep forgetting and having to look up the exact formatting for each of them. Thank you!

Because a coo sticks.

 

Sonic's complaint form has the "go back" and "submit" buttons reversed from typical so people accidentally delete their complaint and have to decide whether to fill the form out again or just forget it.
