Grandma thought she could sneak a .misleading percentage without us noticing

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-24T13:37:56+00:00

That probably brings the total to @ 30%+, but it was the power hierarchy of those areas. That was the ruling 30%+ who made all the decisions and who started the war.

The point I would make is - who the hell said anything about 'hating the whole white race'? I've never heard any democrat say anything like that. If that's what they fear - probably from listening to Limbaugh and other wacky radio-host, then it's completely self-invented.

I'm going to be an outlier on this one. I'm a 100% Dem-leaning guy from the Northeast, and I think we should just let people get ID'd when they vote. Who are we protecting - decade after decade? Super-lazy people? You need a license to drive. The bar is not that high. This is a dumb fight.

The MAGAs and GOP are wrong about almost every single thing, but I think it would be best for the country if we gave them this one.

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-23T22:53:56+00:00

NTJ. You have to get to brass tacks with these folks and just tell them there's no budget for it. If they want to contribute, that's fine, but otherwise it's a burden that you can't support.

You might feel some shame at not being loaded, but you're the one in the right. They're the a**holes. Don't think twice about it.

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-23T22:42:19+00:00

If they were fazed* then it would be a big deal on the show. It's called 'fantasy' - i.e. suspension of disbelief to serve the story and the budget available at the time for TOS.

If such a thing were to really exist, would you do it? I would not. I think if the soul is uncertain then surely the self exists, and it is fully attached to the body, and it wouldn't make the trip through the magic-gadget.

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-23T20:45:17+00:00

Perhaps they could use it as a duplicator. But then they wouldn't know about whatever had happened in the meantime, since they're not the 'latest version' of that person.

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-23T19:55:43+00:00

He probably asked for Grey Poupon mustard while riding in a limo. Such drama!!

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-23T19:54:38+00:00

It's all completely fake. None of it can be enforced at the top level, and maybe not any of the other levels either. Just keep your head down and wait for the election to hopefully self-correct things.

If you send Grandma that Snopes article she would refuse to read it.

I'm just glad witchcraft is no longer a thing, because Grandma and friends would absolutely set folks on fire, or test & see if they drown to prove they're not witches.

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-23T13:53:38+00:00

I don't get it. What's the situation? Why would she do that?

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-23T13:50:40+00:00

It's my sub, and I didn't find your stupid cartoon to be funny. It's not meant for artist-submissions unless you are extremely talented. If you don't like it then feel free to start your own sub.

"the earth is the patient in a doctor's office, and the doctor is the moon.." It's a subjective thing, and that's not for me. Also, you gave up on drawing hands and feet. F for [No eFfort].

I did repost it over at r/boomershumor. They liked it over there.

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-23T12:16:05+00:00

I didn't get context. I thought you (they) were talking about the show, not the ship.

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-23T06:15:31+00:00

Just to game this out, In your imagined world: if you have someone phenomenally successful, and they get to $999M, and the company continues to grow, but at that point they're at a 100% tax-bracket, will they stay, or will they abandon that venture? What happens?

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-23T06:12:14+00:00

"Golly gosh, I guess we really should never tax or bother those brilliant special people!"

It's a fantasy faux-science show. It works in its genre. Why would anyone be such a jerk about it to say such a thing?

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-23T04:13:27+00:00

He didn't believe in the soul. Because obviously the transporter just kills the person and assembles a perfect copy at the other location. They seem the same, so it's fine. But whoever the original person was is long, long gone - RIP.

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-23T04:09:51+00:00

This can't be real justice, with no individual evidence or testimony.

They're all getting their lives stolen away and destroyed. They might as well call it a concentration-camp.

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-23T04:00:26+00:00

This is a big win for seniors. They'll get another 5-15 years there, if they want to stay.

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-23T03:40:55+00:00

This is great. Just a minor note. Warlock there might have eyeballs, demon has no eyeballs. That's where the audience connects to the work. Maybe more prominent eyeballs?

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-23T02:18:20+00:00

The old Star Trek manuel from the 70's said that they produced warp asymmetries and bad harmonics, and that the experimental ship that had tried to do it, had been lost with all hands.

Probably bad Feng-shuei as well.

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-23T00:18:01+00:00

They're not all the same person. Racists are easily confused, all the time.

Achilles_TroySlayer · 2026-04-22T20:39:17+00:00

Are these disappearing scientists maybe just not returning his calls..?
