OMG. I have it! Eureka! Replace the well with a glacial crevasse!

IDK. They could have used Vance to reenact the well scene from 300.

IDK. I like the wild mint patch in our lawn. Want some mint? Just go grab some mint.

This transactional relationship with minority groups is precisely why Democratic popularity among minority groups is slipping. You pretend to stand for racial justice as a principle. Then, the moment a racial group no longer supports your movement, you abandon your principles of racial justice. You join with the fascists and openly celebrate that group’s persecution. Yet you still ask other minority groups to vote for you, as you stand for racial justice, LGBT rights, etc. Yet how can people not see what is in front of their very eyes - the moment support for their group becomes politically inconvenient, that group will be thrown away like an old tissue.

The same Democrats who said that people needed to ignore Palestine in order to protect LGBT people are now those throwing the trans community under the bus.

Does this asshat realize that the only non-immigrants in this country are the Native Americans?

Watch out. He’ll try to deport all the Native Americans to Northeast Siberia. Their ancestors were just very, very early illegal immigrants.

Luigi appears to have given his life in the service of the innocent. He shot an evil man who killed thousands of innocent people, but whose compatriots had bought the law to make their killings legal.

And his writings? Nothing but compassion, benevolence, and an unshakable sense of justice.

Luigi has all the hallmarks of a classical saint. He’s literally a martyr for the innocent. He gave his life to help people he will never meet.

As far as I am concerned, the man is literally a saint. Saint Luigi of Baltimore. And if they execute him, they will multiply his power a thousand fold.

Nah. Let the drama queen go out like a drama queen. Make him be the test dummy on the next Starship test flight. We could use more entries on the “Inventors Killed by Their Own Inventions” Wikipedia page.

I mean, I don’t want to kill Musk, but I would certainly toast his obituary. The world would objectively be a better place without him on it.

They were sold into slavery. That prison leases out convicts.

What’s it like being a crab in a bucket?

Better yet. Let’s make the border between the two countries fluid. Any US state that borders Canada, or any Canadian province that borders the US, can vote to switch countries at any time. Require a large 2/3 majority threshold. Which nation does a better job providing for its citizens? I say we let states/provinces decide for themselves and vote with their feet.

It’s even worse than that. You can’t even be forced to donate organs or blood after you’re dead. Most places are opt-in for organ donation. A few jurisdiction are opt-out. Nowhere has mandatory posthumous organ donation. Some despotic countries have apparently used force organ harvesting on political dissidents, but no country has ever established some broad rule, based on patriotism or some such, that everyone has to donate organs after death.

In red states, pregnant women literally have less bodily autonomy than corpses.

There’s an interesting fate I would have never seen coming,…burned at the stake in the name of Dolphin Jesus.

Yup. You got it. I’m sorry, but if you pass a law that you know will directly result in the death of children, you are a child murderer.

Good. This law and those like it are passed and espoused by literal child murderers. They have the blood of children on their hands. Subhuman murderous filth.

There are two parties in the US:

1. Nazis.
2. A nominal opposition party that is lead by Nazi collaborators.

My favorites are in Asimov. In the Foundation series, one product the traders sell is a nuclear powered ash tray. They employ advanced nuclear plasma manipulation to…quickly atomize cigarette butts.

Or the time there’s this couple. They are traveling to another planet, and they get aboard their personal interstellar spaceship. The society is advanced enough, that that is just something you can own.

What happens as soon as they get onboard their personal FTL interstellar ship? The husband commands his wife to get dinner started.

When I was a kid, Commander Data from Star Trek TNG was the height of technological possibility. TNG was set in the 2300s.

It looks like hard drives are selling for about 20 bucks a terabyte now. Commander Data had a storage capacity of 100 petabytes.

So today, to buy hard drives equivalent to the capacity Commander Data would cost about $2 million. You would have to be very wealthy to afford that as an individual, but the cost will only get lower. It will still be quite awhile before a random laptop will have a Commander Data’s worth of storage space. But you’re talking decades, not centuries.

Though, this calculation is for the Data that appeared in the original TNG run. His more recent appearance in Star Trek Picard may be different, as his specifications there may canonically differ.

This calculation was only meant to detail the capacity of the original Commander Data, not the more recent Big Data.

They need Jeeezus!

OMG. Wait. If we ever do try to figure out how to translate their language…

Someone is going to actually try to teach them Christianity. I guarantee it. It’s inevitable.

The people arguing that simply are not arguing in good faith.
