Thank you for the in-depth answer! I didn’t even have the basis of understanding to begin researching the topic, and now filling in the details seems to be only a few books away!

I’ve always been a bit curious and confused about Japan’s isolation(s). Until a century ago, it was a reasonably successful policy to simply send an army and conquer. Japan had notoriously terrible iron and, aside from using mountains and rugged terrain, there would have been little that they could do to against a continuous force of fully armored European knights. How was it that they escaped colonization unlike India and China?
Just testing how many checks it makes and on what and where. Not sure what triggers it or where.
Edit: forgot to say, thank you!
Mind control is objectively the best option. Using the ability to affect the dispositions of others, I’d easily be able to perv on guys and hump them in their sleep.
Because optimization isn’t secondary or even tertiary to the average modern design philosophy. The extra power is, unfortunately, mandatory for a decent user experience.
He’s given the description of something with fins and teeth, but that could be any number of animals. Typically, a gargantuan decision like this isn’t made unless there’s a similarly massive realization. Did advisors say his polls were unfavorable? Were donors pulling out? Did he come to terms with his age? Was his party begging for his retirement?
I’m not looking for souls lore and feelings in abstract, I’m asking for events.
If by “they” you mean the news, then I’ve noticed a change. Insofar as actual human people and their opinions in my city, they’ve been static. Progressives sighing and regressives screeching. How have the human people in your city changed their opinions?
Maybe? Selfishly, I still wish he’d offered complete candor to sate my curiosity. Maybe in his memoirs.
They’ve been saying the same thing for 3 years. This doesn’t make sense without some sort of realization or external pressure.
I don’t believe that he relinquished his campaign out of utter beneficence. I skimmed the transcript but never managed to find it, does he touch on what in particular compelled him to pass the torch?
It’s hard to believe that he’d just wake up one morning after six months of campaigning and say “yeah, it’s about time I hang up my suit.” Especially with only a few months remaining for Harris to campaign. There had to have been a coming to Jesus moment for the spontaneity of this about face.
Considering the complete lack of backlash against the commentators who disparaged Vivek this year, they’ve definitely got a handle on it.
There will be quite a few Muslim allegations as well, for reasons. Which is funny, considering she has history with nearly everything besides Islam.
I can’t help but wonder why he wouldn’t simply answer his classmate and end this debacle. “No, I don’t have a loose asshole, it’s of average diameter and depth, but I appreciate that you took the time to ask.” What a weird hill to die on.
I haven’t watched proper TV in 20 years so I honestly don’t know whether this is actually happening in peoples’ homes. The discovery merger lends too much credence to the possibility. Which reality show completed the enshitification of an already extremely enshitified service? Was it duck dynasty that set the trajectory for [current year]?
No way, man. My friend read that document and developed blood clots. RFK jr also recently talked about it on Joe Rogan’s podcast, where they suggested that… etc…
The internet isn’t a place to draw an understanding of politics. The internet isn’t even a place to draw an understanding of the internet.
As far as backups go, she’s far from the worst. On that note, what would America do if Biden were re-elected and simply stepped down immediately? Would America lament the second term that never was or would they simply say “oh, weird. Whatever.” Or would they celebrate fresher blood finally finding its way into the mix? I know republicans would attempt to block and/or complain about everything, but the reasonables- how would they react?
Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?
“Can you believe everything that’s going wrong in the world?”
“I know, right? It’s like, let people live their lives! Interfering in people’s lives has allowed society to regress 40 years in only 3, which bodes poorly for the future.”
*pause* “Agreed! I love gays and transes. They deserve my taxes, not white people.”
Having seen the complete absence of mayhem on kbin caused by vote visibility, the absolute and utter nothing that will come of this decision leads me to say yeah, sure. That said, I’d prefer improved mod tools over this, but option c isn’t listed.
