Here’s Biden in the 2008 debate against Sarah Palin. https://youtu.be/4Hs7CptPWI4?si=ygyXTtMIiNwfAPYa
There’s no “stutter.” He’s nailing his talking points, stringing them together fluently. The Biden of today is unrecognizable.
At the same time, it’s not like Kamala is going to beat Trump. And they won’t let Bernie get the nomination.
Republicans voters are much better at voting for their Handmaiden’s Tale candidates. Meanwhile, Democrats are told that anyone to the left of Eisenhower “isn’t electable” so we just have to swallow right-wingers like Biden and Hillary.
EDIT: I’m saying that Republican voters don’t care who’s “electable,” so they get what they want. We should try the same.
Right, forgot about those devastatingly important priorities.
Now watch them do nothing of consequence.
"…Enemies foreign and domestic."
We wouldn’t exist as the US.
The job of President throughout the 20th century has involved committing crimes. If they gave that away, then all of these ghouls could potentially be prosecuted.
In the future, the former President could go to jail for the next version of Iran-Contra… and we couldn’t possibly allow that to happen.
I’ll believe it when I see it. Batteries are so heavy right now that 80-90% of the available cargo and passenger capacity would be batteries.
For the moment, batteries are better for cars, and something like hydrogen would be better for planes and semi trucks
Yeah I have the world’s smallest astigmatism in my left eye and even that was annoying for me as a kid using it.
Came here to ask this too
I set up Alpine to read my Gmail last summer, and while the nostalgia hit was nice, the browser version was more responsive and useful, cap I went back to that.
Those Vaios had a monumental amount of bloatware slowing them down too.
It wasn’t really fun, and I could never see properly in it.
I think there’s an Arthur Miller quote along the lines of man cannot appreciate sky without earth, nor heaven without hell.
Smart astrophysics people I’ve talked to are excited when we see gamma bursters further out in the universe than before, because that means that the universe is bigger than previously known.
That also does not matter. Spinozan Determinism can be summed up as:
“If it could have happened any other way, it would have.”
Tri-omni God problem. The God that we are told is worthy of worship is
The presence of evil in the world demonstrates that no more than two out of those 3 can possibly be true at the same time. Thus if God does exist, he’s not all that and a bag of gummy bears.
That’s actually my favorite parasite! Toxo really wants to live inside a cat’s digestive tract, so much so that, when a rodent gets it in their blood, the baby toxos produce cysts in the brain (and liver and muscles) that hypnotize the rat into being attracted to cat poop. This leads to the rat hanging around where cats poop, and therefore getting eaten by the cat, and ending up happily back inside the cat’s GI tract.
In the old Star Wars Expanded Universe, there was mention of a Shawken Device which, if operable, could destroy the universe.
This has led me to conclude that the universe probably isn’t infinite.
In an infinite universe, all possible things should be happening at the same time. This would necessarily mean that someone invented a device/mechanism/reaction that could destroy the universe, and successfully activated it, thus ending the universe.
There are only two possible conclusions that I can draw from this thought experiment, which are not mutually exclusive:
Los Angeles used to send the drunks to a labor camp in the valley for the duration of the Olympics.
