from my understanding she’s a tenant union organizer, dont think you can put her anywhere close to tucker carlson and mtg. my impression is that she’s a left wing woo woo person which is where some of the antisemetic ideas/soundbites come from

from my understanding she actually came in first during the first round of voting lmao, who knows if she will win the runoff but i actually think this might work, “castrate all pedophiles” is not really an uncommon position in texas

rip.

also not very surprising to see the others, ao3 is filled with turboshitlibs

It is very very good to have this out in the open. It will embolden efforts.

that’s where I’m at and why im saying it’s a very good sign for the future

explanation: this document is an online reply to a specific complaint regarding conversion therapy against trans and queer people. it is not an official court ruling, has no legislative power, cannot be cited in legal cases, and is meant to dismiss the original complaint. while it is indeed the first time the court explicitly mentions the illegality of discrimination based on gender & sexuality, there is still much more to be done for it to bear any legal weight

important context. still great sign of progress but important not to over-exaggerate victories

aww not nearly as cool as i thought, but still very good sign for future

over/under someone has already written a fic of this on ao3

i was gonna say you can absolutely memorize lines in another language and just get accent coach to help with speaking them

why the hell is it in english

faith isnt the right word. while there are definitely some true believers in the rapture death cult, vast majority of these people are ultimately craven cowards and i dont think they would risk themselves like that

PSL is super tiny compared to the DSA, yes. Now, it’s not easy to tell the exact size difference since think since PSL doesnt really accept you if you’re not willing to devote a huge portion of your life to it while all it takes to be in dsa is either pay like 10 bucks a month or write a fee waiver application*, so you cant even really go based off of DSA having 100k paper members, but based off of my experience DSA still has way more organizers than PSL.

and it’s not “DSA having a higher chance of success of instilling class consciousness”, it’s that DSA runs candidates pretty much exclusively through the democratic party ticket and thus can actually win elections and thus can actually win credibility among workers by excercisng power, and that spending time on local third party politicians is both 1) a waste of time and 2) actively harming his own credibility, because the average person will think you’re kind of a crank for even talking to a 3rd party person let alone acting like they can win

*this fee waiver is something you can 1000% bs your way through, my local dsa chapter when i was organizing flat out told us to lie and get the waiver even if we could affort because they really didnt like national and didnt want us giving them money directly lmao

Yo fuck them i’ll fight them

aw thank you

a nasally voice doesnt really affect singing as much, at least in choir singing which is always what I used to do. i kind of miss singing in a choir but no chance in hell im joining any church choir and that’s pretty much all that’s available to me where i live

fair enough

All the weird CGI stuff they do, it’s interesting to see how much effort and detail they put into certain things and then the things they skimp on (or do very weirdly, like the water in the port looking like some PS4 cutscene)

honestly i dont know if there’s been a single CGI thing in the show ive disliked, although maybe im just biased because of some of the absolutely horrific cgi ive seen in japanese shows making it pale in comparison

The English voice acting is fucking nuts btw like i hate some of the anachronistic dialogue choices they make but aside from that it’s really high quality

i wouldnt know, im a sub elitist and make my friends watch everything subbed with me lol

Release That Witch

never heard of it, any good in your eyes or?

lmao ive been watching this with a couple of my friends and i looked up the natopedia article on the show and saw that roadmap and was similarly flabbergasted… HOWEVER

literally just random slop

PUT SOME FUCKING RESPECT ON LORD OF MYSTERIES NAME

In 2019, 10 web novels including Great Power, Heavy Industry and Nightfall were collected in the Shanghai Library. A total of 144 works including Lord of Mysteries and Battle Through the Heavens have been collected in the National Library of China

(also this show is batshit insane, we’re like 8 episodes in and like every other minute or so something happens that has us going . absolutely gorgeous animation though, some of the best ive ever seen )

me: just chilling, having a good time, watching video while i eat my dinner super late

video creator: haha this guy’s a fucking loser, his voice is so nasally!*

me: GUHHHH

*paraphrased ofc

it’s technically temporary, and trump can push it to congress to make his cabinet give him his toys back

Section 4. Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.

Thereafter, when the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that no inability exists, he shall resume the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department [sic][note 2][7] or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty-eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty-one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty-one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two-thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office.

so, his cabinet would only ever do this if trump were trying to like nuke china or russia (or some other similarly catastrophic thing) because that’s the only thing that could get the repubs in congress to agree to remove him from office

i think if he ever actually tried his cabinet would use the 25th amendment on him

it was kinda weird, spy shot up when the post first dropped, then it started falling again for like 10-20 min before shooting back up like last 20-30 min of the day and nearly ended green presumably still based off of the same post
