In a weird coincidence a show came out in 2016 before the election called BrainDead and the plot was that alien bugs are eating parts of our brains and causing hyper partisanship.

Thank you for posting this, it is a fascinating story.

I know this is probably a joke comment, but you’ve got me intrigued - how many trans girls do you know and how often do you compete if physical challenges? Are they of the Double Dare variety or are they more Olympic in nature? Do you allow them to train an come back for a rematch?

What a great point. The regulations that are “acceptable “ are all about protecting the corporations.

I’ve been thinking a lot about this song. And it is a real feeling that people have.

But it is also just whining.

The way he goes from talking about people without anything to eat and then talks about how someone that poor and fat shouldn’t eat a fudge round just seems to be a confused message.

Is big government the problem? Or is it lack of corporate regulations that then allow big companies to pay people less than what they need to survive.

Washington can do things to fix what he is talking about, but I would be shocked if he is interested in any policy that helps poor people or people drowning in student or medical debt.

The only reason Tuberville is able to hold things up is because the senate generally votes on these all at once and that type of vote is required to be unanimous. If republicans want to play games, the senate majority leader should bring up these high level positions one at a time and hold normal votes.
It wastes time, but at least it helps get around this nonsense.

Except it does say “from others”. Highlighting “can” just shows that this spell gives you the ability to do so. Another way of writing the text would be “The touch of your shadow wreathed hand gives you the ability to siphon life force from others”

The mods to fix bloodlines turned it into a fantastic experience. Did not expect to be thinking about reinstalling that today, but here we are!

Having much of my family being republican, I think you are leaving out an important piece of the puzzle - fear.

Republicans are terrified all the time. Fear of the other, fear that how they grew up and the people they know are being called wrong for what they think and say. It manifests through anger.

If they can knock you down then you are weak and wrong and they are justified in doing it.
