I'm not saying it is easy but look at NYC or Bernie. People want someone to inspire change not someone who looks at polling to decide what to care about like the dem leadership. That is what Trump did, he moved the country right. I just hate this idea that all Americans are secretly evil.

It's because the opposition party won't take any leads. They just follow along with whatever the trump media says is true because they forgot that the point of leading is to inspire and change minds, not just do what you think people want to hear.

The myth of evangelical persecution gets a new platform in the Washington Post Aaron Renn claims Christians are shut out of elite institutions. In reality, evangelical power has rarely been stronger, and we're all suffering as a result.

Not sure. I also didn't pay to see it, I saw the Friendly Atheist's article about it. The myth of evangelical persecution gets a new platform in the Washington Post share.google/GoIL8kktwadz...

It is partially the loss of control. A lot of the issues today can only be fixed with systematic change and people want to grasp on to solutions that they themselves can enact. Herd immunity depends on group behavior. Deciding that vaccines are dangerous and fighting against them is an action.

That stinks but I wasn't even talking about sharing games. This was my own games I owned on my own account just on another device. Steam is definitely not perfect but the switch system is so much worse.

The virtual game card system on the Nintendo switch. I was so confused cuz they rolled it out for the switch 2. before we each had our own and could play on either. Thank god I transferred my account to my so's switch before giving mine away. Wouldn't have access to any game at all.

Honestly true for technological problems too. It's tempting to have something controlled by software that could just be a dedicated circuit and should be! Best examples are fail-safes. You don't want a firmware update to break your heater's cut off when it is about to start a fire!

Nah, have you tried it? I have a steam deck and ya I can't play a game on that and my desktop at the same time but I can play anything on either one without issue. My so got the switch 2 and went to play something I have in my account. NOPE! Not until the old switch is in the same room! Ffs. It's BS

Loons only have red eyes during the breeding season, do they have something similar and you didn't notice because they weren't there?

New pupper needing some help regulating her activity levels. Woke up on a tear and now back to snoozing. Might be a long day of crate if she can't manage to settle. #dogsofblueskh

Isn't the reason that annuals are even useful is to check in about stuff you didn't feel was worth a full visit? This is such BS

You have to love the American health system. Just really building bridges between providers and patients /s

It went widespread because dog food companies with 0 studies used the "natural is better" feeling to sell overpriced grain free food claiming grains are unnatural and then filling it with, as you said, low quality legumes. Now the only real study indicated this was all hogwash so ya people spread it

There are two species of sea slugs (specifically sacoglossan) that detaches its head from the rest of its body and regrows it again. They think this is to get rid of parasites

The whole conversation is pretty broken in my opinion. Science doesn't happen without clear communication and arithmetic is not math. On the flip side to this to me, as someone was "good" at math, the popular culture always dragged stem / math people as try hards and lame for caring about stuff
