1. Bring a sword as a gift.
2. Surprise!
3. Alliance restored under new leadership and an eternally grateful public.

The best time to repeal the 1973 War Powers Resolution was decades ago. The second best time is now.

This mirrors my experience with my 2017 Prius Prime. On the rare occasion when I activate gas mode (e.g., for long trips) it gets 50 mpg no problem. Otherwise it’s an electric car and the gas engine is completely shut down.

During COVID lockdowns, we were driving a lot less. We got a warning message that we needed to burn at least 5 gallons of gas each year to keep it from going stale. So we drove it exclusively in gas mode for a while, then went right back to not caring about gas prices at all.

Shut down everything and don’t bother starting it up again.

To be a completely fair comparison, you should give your baby access to nuclear weapons.

It’s a little late for that. It’s like restoring all the SNAP benefits to someone that’s already starved to death.

A core problem is that impeachment votes have become a team popularity contest, with the details of charges, innocence, guilt, etc. being irrelevant except for theatrics.

I will continue to blame party leadership until they kick the traitorous assholes out of the party entirely.

Except they’re still getting paid. They’re apparently “essential”, but food stamps and air traffic control aren’t.

Counterpoint from Douglas Adams:

The major problem—one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them. To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it. To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.

I am 100% in favor of Jon Stewart for president, especially if he refuses to run.

Perjury like that is not an “error”, it’s a crime.

Remember when we had the Posse Comitatus Act? The law that makes doing this unambiguously illegal?

Other exchanges? No idea, sorry. I never held much; I just sold everything and transferred it back to my regular bank account.

The moment I saw the banners on that stage, I started the process of closing my Coinbase account. Those corrupt fuckers can rot.

It’s basically gambling. Trump has lots of experience driving his casinos into bankruptcy.
