He got exactly what he wanted, appointing an anti-abortion judge by disguising it as a "compromise"

Why would you need to compromise with the minority party when you don't have to?

That is also a good point. I wonder...how many cousins did Churchill have in the German officer corp? :soviet-hmm:

He was probably worried about UK colonial holdings citing that action as justification to do the same to them. :ukkk:

Even IF she had won, republicans still would have taken the House and Senate. Liberal's favorite republican, John "I don't fly good" McCain, said they wouldn't let her appoint any justices. This was inevitable no matter how hard anyone voted. But if liberals admitted that, then they would have to admit that electoral politics is helpless at defending your privileges in this shit system designed to empower slaveholders and capitalists.

Weimar Republic 2: Nuclear Bugaloo

The cost of the US Interstate Highway Act of 1956 w/ inflation adjusted. Only, China will have something actually useful that generates income for the money.

I would guess that a dwelling space for several hundred thousand of our people could very easily be provided.

A comPuter can decide who stays based on youth, health, ssssexual fertility, intelligence, and a cross-section of necessary skills. Naturally, they would bread prodigiously. There would be much time and little to do, but with the proper breading techniques and a ratio of say...10 females to each male, I would guess we could work our way back to the current Gross Domestic Product within 20 years.

Stay strong comrade and do what you need to for your mental health.

:meow-hug:

Thanks, Comrade! I am doing much better now. Mental scars will always be there, but I've gained peace knowing their movement is dead. I caught up with the Youth Pastor some years later, and turns out he led a class action lawsuit that forced the church to close and the school to be reformed. I had the best sleep in my life the night he told me, and could never thank him enough for giving me that peace of mind. Sometimes, you can still get a win in Hell World.

Grew up Southern Baptist, which is one of the worst denominations of Protestantism. Had to go to church 2 times a week, and went to a small Christian private school Mon.-Friday. I'm going to include both since they claimed to be, "the left and right hands of God."

School:

• School was founded the year after segregation ended in my home state.
• Claimed prayer was illegal in public school and the Headmaster led prayer three times a day
• School was forced to attend a motivational speaker for a whole week, once a year, whose message was literally: "You are evil and will burn in hell. Maybe you'll eat a baby along the way."
• More coaches teaching than actual teachers, and the "teachers" came from churches.
• Talking about evolution was actually banned, let alone not taught in science class.
• Two senior trips included visiting the maximum security prison in my state and a trip to the National Guard to take the ASVAB. I thought the latter was required across the country, lol.

Church:

• They warned of an "imminent Muslim invasion" after 9/11. Asked for volunteers to join the military to, "Fight for God." That's why they took us to the National Guard at school.
• Typical God Vs. Liberals/Gays/Abortionists/Anyone against GWB stuff too.
• Ran a, "Pray the Gay Away" Concentration Camp
• One good guy, our Youth Pastor, was fired because his wife cheated on him ("how could he let her do that!?") Probably the actual reason was he watched out for us and tried to let us be kids. He felt bad about us being involved in this cult.
• Luckily, our church was about a block away from my house, so I could easily duck out and go home without notice.
• Was finally told, "Find salvation elsewhere," by a new youth pastor (who said his biggest sin in life was watching Seinfeld) after I asked, "How do you know the bible is correct?" Best thing that could have happened, actually. Went to live with Grandma, who was a real teacher and surprisingly normal.

Haven't attended anything religious since graduating from high school. Parent's will still ask me, "What's your problem with the church?"

:screm-a:

Biden likes all three of those things just the way they are. Dude's always been a ghoul.

America is desperate to project some sort of imperial might. Getting wrecked in Afghanistan and by covid has shown the world how incompetent our government and leaders really are.

This will also be a great excuse for Biden to inflate the military budget even more. "Gee man, I'd like to give healthcare, but the Russians man! Oh, those crazy Russians! I hear that Rasputin guy is a demon or something, so we are spending billions in anti-demon missiles."

Lord Mickey arrives in his carriage at your modest hut. "I sure hope he doesn't need any more Mouse Bucks," you think as the carriage door opens.

Lord Mickey steps down from his carriage onto a bent over servant, then onto the ground, where he finally examines you and your humble abode. He is visibly disgusted.

"HaHa, kneel serf. Your Lord has arrived." Mickey extends his hand out in front of you, waiting for your submissive kneel and ring kiss. You deliver both with the expertise that comes from countless hours practicing in the mirror. As you avert your eyes, you manage to muster enough courage to speak, "What brings you here today, muh Lord?"

"HaHa, silence. I have come to collect dues to Mouse Kingdom, immediately, haHa." Mickey says after jerking his gloved hand from you.

"But muh Lord, there must be a mistake. I have paid my dues, I even pay extra for the "No Shake Downs Package!" As you appeal in earnest, he averts his gaze from you towards the ground and surrounding landscape.

"The Mouse does not make mistakes, haHa! These are new dues shareholders implemented yesterday, but are retroactive for the previous year, haHa."

"But, I can't pay! I have no more Mouse Bucks after the last payments." You continue to plead, appealing to his humanity, but he is a Mouse.

"I am a fair Mouse, haHa. Your wife, is quite lovely, is she not? The kingdom speaks highly of her beauty, haHa. If you cannot pay, then I must implement Noctem Recompensatio, haHa, as is my right."

You sigh and hang your head in defeat. "As is your right, muh Lord."

"HaHa, then it's settled!" He snaps his fingers, moments later one of the servants hands you a polka-dot dress and white clogs.

"Have her wear this, haHa, and tell her to arrive at Mouse House by no later than 7! Toodles!"

Another day in the magical Mouse Kingdom.

:ukkk:

Well, if they want to play that game:

• Texas is Tejas
• New York City is actually New Amsterdam
• San Francisco is bullshit, call it by it's real name: Yerba Buena
• Boston is Trimount, and I will fight those that say otherwise.
• Atlanta is either Terminus or Marthasville
• Orlando is made up poopoo name, Jernigan is the piss.
• Phoenix was named by a confederate lead head, Hohokam forever!

Now, if you excuse me, I need to start prepping for the Soup Bowl. I will of course be pulling for the Losantiville Bengals.

Kamala speaking in a Russian accent, "Don't come."

You joke, but I have evidence that Russia is developing HSHSM devices! That's right, Hypersonic Havana Syndrome Missiles. The sheer thought gives me a slight tummy ache.... oh God...they're attacking!

:data-laughing: Haha, we're in danger.

Jane: You don't have to be a dick about it, Bob.

Bob: You don't have to be drunk all the time, Jane.

Jane: Look, it's Albania! You cheated on your wife with a woman from there, right?

Bob: That's right, Jane! And now the French team has appeared. See, Jane, not all French people are like the guy who stood you up at the altar.
