That last point is why I couldn’t play Fallout 4. My son was kidnapped, my spouse was killed, and I need to find out who did it and where they are! Right after I save a library, build a town, and solve some detective mysteries, I guess.
Because last time his number one policy promise was to build a wall and have Mexico pay for it. And his number two promise was an alternative to Obamacare.
He’s not so great at following through with his promises. That’s the only thing non-MAGAs have going for them: he’s pretty incompetent.
The bigger problem is that the number of seats in the House has been frozen for about a hundred years. Our population exploded, but our number of representatives stayed static, so places with the most people actually get less representation in congress.
On top of this, the number of electors a state has its equal to the number of representatives that state has in the Senate and the House combined. So more populated states also get underrepresented in the presidential election.
The Three-Fifths Compromise was absolutely fucked, but it’s not what is deadlocking the House now and its not what is letting a people lose the popular vote and still go on to be president in 21st century elections.
The real problem is that the size of the House of Representatives has been frozen for 100 years. The number of electoral college votes a state has is equal to the number of reps and senators they have. Since the House hasn’t grown alongside our population, the relative representation for rural areas has steadily grown more and more.
Ending the cap on the House would balance out the electoral college issues and help reduce the constant congressional deadlocks we’re seeing.
Except that elections happen every year…
The difference being the PS4 wasn’t backwards compatible. The remaster was intended for people who hadn’t and couldn’t play the PS3 version.
PS5 is backwards compatible, making this a little more bullshit.
They are usually self-employed
That varies wildly depending on city, county, state, and (I’m guessing) country requirements. I drove for a few years in a small-ish city, and neither me nor anyone I ran into at the usual spots were self-employed. We all worked for one of two cab companies, making hourly wages plus tip.
And Bo Duke was from upstate New York.
“Not admissible because it was illegally captured” didn’t give me the warm-and-fuzzies this comment sounds like it should’ve.
When I was in high school, the girls’ running team made shirts that said, “Fast girls have good times.” It’s been more than twenty years, and I still think about how funny that double-entendre is.
So, yeah, you would’ve sold a lot more weiners.
That’s why the move is to edit all of your comments into jumbled nonsense and then delete them.
The pressure of the water against the door would’ve prevented her from opening it regardless of the door’s mechanical features or power supply issues.
The windows not shattering is absolutely a Tesla design flaw, but there’s no way that woman was ever going to open a door from inside a submerged car.
It’s funny how recognizing the legitimacy of the world court would just instantly remove one of the world’s biggest problems.
I remember saying this about George W twenty years ago.
They’re saying there was no measurable change in their lives driven by political leadership in the last 16 years? They’re arguing in bad faith.
This is not a joke, they believe this.
Except for the 78% of Conservatives in support of IVF. This article is literally about Republican lawmakers scrambling because everyone is in favor of IVF.
This. Everyone I talk to says, “but socialized medicine has such long wait times.” But these same fuckers avoid going to the doctor until it’s absolutely unbearable to deal with because it costs to much to find out if it’ll get better on its own. So if you’re getting symptoms of something and waiting two months anyway, how is your system better?
if your goal as a parent is to maximize success of your children.
“Success” is very subjective.
I have a problem if I owe the bank a thousand dollars. The bank has a problem if I owe them a million dollars.
Wait, so you’re hoping that the American government is covertly manipulating the roughly 1 in 3 Americans who watch the Superbowl expressly to retain the incumbents power because it means we’d avoid a fascist autocracy?
No, capitalism is feudalism with loot boxes! Because I could win the lottery.
