Emotions run high around politics right now. Can't I say I blame people for that. Shits fucked. And there is friendly fire from time to time when people feel like saying or acknowledging anything bad about "your side" is strengthening "the other side". And hell maybe they're right I don't know. It's all very subjective.

That thing about when he was in China was a shitshow from top to bottom. I had never even heard of the "controversy" so it was probably some bullshit the moderators threw in to appease the conspiracy lunatics and appear balanced. Then his answer was a bunch of nothing and flailing around. I don't think he even answered it. The closest he got was "that's what I said" and didn't address the accuracy of the statement or an explanation in his answer. And then he stopped with a few seconds left in his allotted time and froze up and stammered for the rest of it.

Tim Walz is, by all appearances, a stand up guy and smart as a tack. But that isn't really what drives these debates. If they were won and lost on the merits, no Republican would have been elected in my lifetime. But they're not about substance and by pretty much every measure that answer and interaction was a doozy of a loser.

But that was the only answer that he flubbed like that, so the night wasn't a total disaster for Walz. It just wasn't a win.

Don't forget the "distinct odor" lol. That just says to me that the cops lied through their teeth to get the warrant.

I hope whoever gets the website keeps it exactly the same in looks and tone, and instead of contributing to misinformation actively correct misinformation online and post accurate stories. Keep the vibe and over-the-top voice tho.

Just FYI, the certificate for that server was marked untrustworthy.

Hell yeah. I'm hilarious and the world deserves to know.

This is going to require some re-configuring of disability payments or a lot of people will lose benefits.

The whole point of copyright in the first place, is to encourage creative expression

...within a capitalistic framework.

Humans are creative creatures and will express themselves regardless of economic incentives. We don't have to transmute ideas into capital just because they have "value".

I generally consider Republican candidates and ideas non-starters. Not even worthy of consideration. When I criticize Democrats, the "Trump is not an option" is implied.

Pretty sure it's not an official plate. The sovereign citizens will print their own. Sometimes like this in an effort to fool cops into thinking its a regular plate so they don't get pulled over.

Who would vote on it? The Fed can just do it unilaterally.

Run Jellyfin instead. I don't know how Plex has stayed as popular as it has.
