I know it’s technically a usable defense, but how often is the Act of God defense actually ruled? From what I understand, it rarely works, and you’d have a better chance with any other defense. Has it been successfully used recently?

While it is true that voters absolutely should have turned out to vote for not-hitler over hitler, there are lessons that the dnc can learn from this. for example trump reaches normal, non-political people since conservatives go on talk shows like rogan and others and shows the “human” side of him. im not saying going on rogan would have saved the campaign, but democrats dont do any non-political talk shows until just before the election if they do any at all. As the surge in “did biden drop out” searches indicated, the electorate has no idea what the fuck is going on. if democrats want to reach the common person, they should go where the common person is. the undecided voters dont understand policy, so they vote for who they like more.

I’ve actually heard about it from some republicans: The fact that Kamala lost 15 million votes is proof that last election was rigged, since anti-trump voters should still vote again this election It’s ridiculous.

I know of a Christian who believed Trump is the anti-christ, as foretold by Revelations and made direct comparisons. But he still voted for Trump anyway, because he could never support a Democrat. I live in an area where majority of Christians believe that Jesus actually would in fact forgive them for their actions that are antithetical to the Bible and cherry-picked Bible quotes. He was very homophobic too, so I deliberately dressed more queer to be irritating.

My most fulfilling job ever was only three dollars over the minimum. I actually would work that job for the rest of my life, or at least for a very long time, if it was affordable.

Call me basic or whatever but I adore the Utahraptor. Largest known dromaeosaurid? Sign me up! Even though it could tear me apart. Kinda like I will to whoever says dinosaurs are stupid.

Stayed at a complex with a laundry room that cost 1.75 for each wash or dry cycle. An apartment with a washer/dryer hookup (appliances not included, but could be rented for $120ish) costed an extra $50 each month. I’d have to go through more than 14 wash and dry cycles both each month for the hookups alone to be worth it.

This only works when everyone refuses to tip. Some guy going to a restaurant, not tipping, and leaving me with the minimum of $2.13 just makes my day worse. The business does not care. That’s why I left service in the first place. I’ve had a $0 tip four times in one night before through no fault of my own (the patrons had even complimented me), but making enough to cover that minimum wage difference of only $5 an hour over the course of the week left absolutely no change for the company. A person can’t claim to have the moral high ground by refusing to tip because eventually it’ll be better that way.

Skinks are the same way, no? They don’t regrow their tails after dropping them.

Look, I don’t agree with the rest of the statement either, but tell me, what is the water touching? Oh, more water? Water is wet.

I actually didn’t read the name first, but while reading it I thought, “this reads a lot like Trump.”

I used to work with kids. Every now and then I’d eat a banana or hot dog sideways, from the inside-out. They were horrified.

Which I find to be such an excellent example. Since red wine has prolonged contact with grape skins, letting it keep a lot of the flavonoids. It’s not incorrect exactly, but you’d still be better off eating grapes or drinking grape juice.

I once made a home base for an elusive magic artist that is notorious for making really powerful magical artifacts with shitty side effects. Shield of Biting that bites the user, invisible invisibility cloak, Rhythm Heaven’s Monkey Watch, a dagger that berates the user on misses, one puzzle that I found online that stumped the party for hours. So I made it a base with annoying puzzles. I had solutions for four out of five of them, then decided, “Eh, they’ll come up with something eventually.” They did the other puzzles first though, so they just came up with a solution that fits the theme. It worked.

I hate sleep paralysis. Rather than taking the form of a demon, it takes the form of my friends/family/anyone I know walking in, seeing me with sleep paralysis, then leaving. I’d rather it be a demon.

About three weeks ago, my coworker’s brother was shot by police responding to a wellness check. It’s fucked.
