The saying “fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me” is apropos to the situation. Voting for him the first time may have been excusable if they didn’t vote for him a second time. They knew damn well the kind of evil he was and still they flocked to him. These idiots will vote for the next Republican to come along because they want tax breaks, or a lazy bigoted scapegoat, or any other selfish reason because they’re unrepentant self serving assholes.

A lot of the things we want run completely counter to their values. Yes we can agree Trump is evil, but what about treating women as more than walking incubators? Or minorities as human? How about increasing taxes on the rich to pay for social services? Can we at the very least all agree that law-abiding undocumented immigrants don’t deserve to be separated from their families and shipped to Guantanamo or be deported shackled in a military plane?

You’re right, we should be like the Democrats who started cozying up to Liz Cheney for conservative Never Trumpers, that strategy worked really well for them. They’re only going to drag us further right with them if we ignore their bad intentions for having voted Trump in the first place. They will still see minorities as something to hate, they’ll still want to tear down the government to “hurt the right people”, and they’ll still hate you.

Right wingers fucking around: “Yeah let’s deport all the ILLEGALS, lower our egg prices, and make the government fascist! MAGA!”

Right Wingers finding out: “Boohoo my benefits are cut, Canada boos at our National Anthem, and I have to sell my left kidney to buy groceries!”

Fuck these people. Conservatives were drawn in to Trump because of his hateful rhetoric and they only changed their minds when they were personally affected. They’ll vote with a hard R the next election cycle anyway and don’t deserve our sympathy. They were around and even voted for Trump’s first administration and wanted more of his hate.

What would you recommend for a Galaxy XCover 6 Pro? I don’t mind getting out of Google’s ecosystem.

I’m definitely number 2. It takes a lot of effort to not sell shares after they go down even if it’s been years.

TL;DR: Most rigid panel manufacturers provide a 25 year warranty. Performance degradation ranges from 1% to 4% per year depending on the material used, with thin flexible panels being the worst.

Gearbits Mafia Trilogy Dave the Diver

I’m enjoying the hell out of Gearbits. It’s an indie mech shooter with Gundam aesthetics and fast-paced action like Armored Core for a base price of only $10.

Just throw my body in the trash. And no religious burial. I’ll be damned if some pastor who doesn’t know shit about me give an hour long eulogy about Jesus over my corpse.

A night out with dinner would be way better if the in-laws put away their phones instead of getting up and taking pictures of everyone eating around the table like it’s some fucking holiday catalog for Costco. The good mood’s gone and nobody wants to see those pics later anyway.

Raid builds hurt financially up front but can save you from a lot of heartache later, even with larger disks.

Those Pop figures sure do look alike when you take them out of their packaging. I can’t really tell what any of them are supposed to be at a glance.

I’m grateful for OPs who paste at least some of the relevant information into the post without having to click on the link. Personally it’s better to avoid going to the site since you’re bombarded with cookie notices, subscription solicitations, browser notification requests, and even ads of you’re not using uBlock.

Like a parasitic worm lodged in RFK’s brain you mean.

Ayreon is so damn theatrical that they made and filmed an opera called “The Theater Equation” and it’s pretty damn glorious. Check out Dream Theater’s “The Astonishing” if you want to hear a more dramatic story as well. If you want something more symphonic with mostly traditional orchestral instruments, Blind Guardian’s “Twilight Orchestra - Legacy of the Badlands” will scratch that itch. Shadow Gallery, Symphony X, and Threshold are also honorable mentions.

It’s easy to be patient when you have a backlog of games to go through. Paying full price for a game that still has Denuvo or other forms of DRM just isn’t worth it for me. That said, I’m very sad Fantasian will be released with Denuvo soon after years of languishing in Apple Arcade.

They also have a very tight tolerance of failure. Every failure made in the engineering process brings more and more scrutiny by those holding the purse strings in Washington.

Someone had to have signed off on a mission assurance spec waiver if they’re leaking a lot of EMI. If they didn’t check with the FCC on this they might be in big trouble. Who am I kidding? This was probably done with their blessing.

Hell yeah bring back that medieval roguish look.
