slurpyslop,

very clearly the best metal is mercury because it's the only one you can drink at room temperature

slurpyslop,

you need your hvac serviced if your room is 85F

UNCOMFORTABLE

slurpyslop,

what kind of freak doesn't bring a bagwette to a picnic

slurpyslop,

I survived because the fire inside me burned brighter than the fire around me

slurpyslop,

until i pay a doctor in some rogue country $200 to put me in the system as dead when i'm not

slurpyslop,

it stresses me out that techbros exist out there who are this utterly clueless about the space they're trying to revolutionize

slurpyslop,

revolutionizing the underage drinking industry

literally all they need now is a qr code

they can even all share the same one

slurpyslop,

Through the mirror of my miindd

slurpyslop,

didnt use enough cement

slurpyslop,

wouldn't it be a more effective protest to drive there, park, spend 3 hours browsing the aisles, before finally buying a single pint of milk

slurpyslop, (edited )

sounds like there's already a crowd?

also, how many times have you decided to visit a food store because it was busy?

slurpyslop,

a restaurant, maybe

a grocery store, what?

slurpyslop,

if you're arrested in the us, you have to be charged or released within a specific timeframe

they can't just detain you indefinitely for fun

slurpyslop,

simply put, you don't know what you're talking about

Either you’re playing dumb or you are dumb

slurpyslop,

in the us, if you're arrested you need to be charged or released within a fixed period, usually up to 72 hours

tate was arrested in december, held for 3 months without being charged, was moved to house arrest, then was charged in june

slurpyslop,

i'm referring to his initial arrest

slurpyslop,

i do find it slightly horrifying that in romania they can just decide to put you in prison indefinitely without having to prove you did anything

can you just not read

slurpyslop,

what are you asking me to prove? that tate was held without being charged?

slurpyslop,

buddy if your replies get any dumber i'm going to have to assume you're an andrew tate fan

slurpyslop,

lmao

slurpyslop,

If you're in a safe seat, then no they don't care about your vote as much, so they don't care about your protest vote as much.

If you're in a swing seat, then they care about your vote more, and therefore your protest vote has more weight.

Democrats caring about your vote is by definition inexorably linked to how powerful your vote is.

But since we're talking hypotheticals, if there's another genocide in 5 years, why would the democrats spend political capital to prevent it if they have solid data to show that they don't need to bother and can still win reelection?

That they can just point out how much worse the republicans might be in this scenario? You think Trump will be the only bad potential president? You think if you can get past this one election that US politics will return to "normal"? There's more or less always going to be a Trump from now on.

slurpyslop,

Not really. In detail, maybe, but there will always be an excuse available to avoid committing US resources to any given genocide.

slurpyslop,

that's the thing though, they don't need to "get help to" palestine, they just need to stop actively supporting israel in its genocide

you think the appetite is going to be there for actually committing resources somewhere when they can't even just do nothing?

slurpyslop,

rome famously neglected diplomacy, but in either case once you get rid of the mental gymnastics your argument boils down to "it's too hard so we shouldn't try"

slurpyslop,

and my point is that it's not going to change unless people attempt to change it

it's literally the same argument that gets wheeled out any time there's pressure for social change, then when things finally change we all look back in 10 years and ask ourselves how the hell we ever tolerated the old way of doing things

if you want to vote biden because you think the short term benefits of avoiding trump for another 4 years outweigh the long term drawbacks of further entrenching the same status quo that led to palestine, fine

just don't pretend that you never had any choice in the matter
