I think the problem is they tried this. Kamala was frontlined initially by the Biden admin. She was crazy unpopular, a bad public speaker, and really terrible off the cuff on questions. She’s just a very poor politician, or maybe a politico from an era that doesn’t exist anymore.

The most support she had was when Biden dropped, before she talked. If Biden had dropped later and the elation and excitement that was generated by him dropping out was carried into the general, Kamala wins imo.

I keep hearing she needed more time, no. She needed less time, the country had forgotten she sucked when Biden dropped, she had plenty of time to remind them.

Hi me!

Natural immunity in response to ebola would not be a choice i would predict people making in this country, but they’re doing it with measeles, so fuck me I guess.

This is a crossing the Rubicon moment for Trump. The entire maga apparatus understands that at least the pretense of consequences await them if another group takes over, that includes people who have been fired or left. It happened to them the last time. They know this time the other side is getting voted in on consequences, and they know the other side knows they have a year or two post election to do it, or else they already risk getting wiped out in the midterms just like the situation that republicans find themselves in now.

It’s life or death right now for a lot of members of this admin, and they are gonna act like that. Good luck us.

He should be sitting on a little pile of totenkopfs. Blackwaters finest.

Hell yeah, this is a good one. People! If your first instinct is to downvote the unpopular opinion, please remember it’s always reverse day.

In this case we know the exact cause of death, diving into the fucking cave. Maybe we send an ROV rather than risking 3 lives. If they didn’t have the funding to send one then maybe don’t use the royal yacht to risk your and 2 other lives, including a 3rd on the rescue.

What a selfish way to die.

That’s the amazing part about someone stupid enough to put themselves and others in this position. You’d think the researchers weren’t thrill seeking, but they willingly sought the opportunity to do this research because you get to do it at the same time as your crazy dangerous hobby. Maybe you’ve mixed them to the degree where your research depends on putting yourself and others in danger. I would feel the same way if they were doing climate research while diving out of planes in squirrel suits, but at least no one is risking death to clean them off the side of a bridge when they die.

This idiot researcher dove 20 meters deeper than they should have been in the region they were at, go into an extremely deep and dangerous cave to do research, took her daughter and some other moron with a death wish. They all die, then they take a decorated rescue diver with them who’s just trying to fish out corpses for the husband/father they left behind, and so it doesn’t kill the next idiot to go down there.

The worst part about cave diving at this level is how many often these people (missing parts of their brain like Alex Honold), take the rescue divers with them. The rescue divers being members of the same community most of the time, showing you just how fucking dangerous this bullshit is.

But I bet the husband feels great they were doing important work! That’ll be part of the eulogy and everything.

I would say this might make people less likely to dive there, but i think part of why they do this is because the body and gear is gonna kill the next idiot with a death wish who does this.

What these thrill seeking morons do has a massive death rate and a massive ancillary death rate of the people who have to then collect their stupid corpses.

Then let’s burn this mother fucker down.

POOKIE!

I know I know, it’s especially a dick move to bait you into the response, I’m being a jerk! God I hate the US.

I did, I even read it again when I saw the meme! I didn’t rub it in anyone’s face so I don’t think I’m a socialist tho.

Did the 3rd read make you communist or is it when you start smugly beating people over the head with you reading list? I prefer sci-fi fantasy.

Honestly it’s probably the amount of text. A few of the people who got banned are dyed in the wool multi-paragraph to full book of text posters. Cowbee and Staments being the absolute gods of this.

I bet that list is just a stack ranked list of numbers of words in threads they didn’t like, and Rimu just banned line the top 50.

All sides of the fediverse agree unanimously that Rimu is a piece of shit.

That’s weird, none of these memes are telling me to read settlers, disappointed in you.

Just in case anyone doesn’t know, it’s kinder to kill the males in case anyone down wind is growing outside. That budspunk gets on the wind and it’ll put a baby in your outdoor girls before you realize it.

You think she cares, she strikes me as the type of person would strangle 100 brown babies with her own hands if it meant her child could get a slight advantage.

Think of if Iran had done this, or Russia, what would the news look like, or say. Or think of the sheer number of families and lives that were affected by that truly horrific act (or the sports facility that got hit by the new tungsten cluster munitions we were testing on kids). The anger that was created, the animosity that is the only thing some people have left. This isn’t a thing that happened and just goes away. This was an underwater avalanche that has sent a tsunami. The damage will be impossible to avoid.

That’s the real problem, I like not having to worry about what I’m eating or drinking more than I’m discomforted by the results, I’m sure that balance will change at some point.

I would get on a regular antacid and see if that helps. As I age my acid reflux has been morphing into gerd and the generalized chest pain is random and terrifying but solvable with some tums.

Wow, those are beautiful! I can see the amount of trichs on the fans too, strong.
