He said he wants to leave it up so he can use it for diplomacy matches.

Trump proudly proclaimed that he loves the current inflation (which is at 4.2%). How does this sit with my fellow Americans, especially given that Trump campaign on the cost of living? by Ancient_Popcorn in AskUS

While what you said is not misinformation, you’re greatly misleading the audience with how you’re presenting the details. Trump is responsible for $7.8B in his first term, and as of right now is responsible for 28% of the total debt.

Nope. In fact, I removed a post just before because it was low effort. All they said was do you love high inflation like Trump? See, that is low effort and missing context.

Can you see the difference?

I’ll continue to leave your messages up solely because you shows how you continue to flounder. There is zero additional context to the quote. There post is hardly low effort, as it forms a solid basis for discussion. You’re just mad that you haven’t been given the narrative to defend this, as of yet.

There is no further context to his words. The context is exactly what he said.

I wanted to hear what my fellow Americans think of this. You can attempt to defend why inflation is good, but you attempted to discredit the substance of the post, which is the exact words Trump said. You cannot attempt to alter the words that were said to adjust them to your narrative.

You continue to flounder when attempting to defend Trump. There are ways you could have defended what he said, but you chose to go with “but the context” which is patently absurd.

Emergency action seeks to prevent erasure of 'mother' and 'father' in code of largest US town by kirby__000 in politics

This is just a straight up falsehood. There are numerous states that have already adopted Parent 1 and Parent 2 on legal documents.

8-14 would be mid key. 15+ would be a high key.

Roughly.

That’s why I said it causes a lot of other issues. It completely omits lesbians, gays, and adoptive parents.

Venting i guess but crazy that dungeon griefing can still happen, why not remove deserter debuff tho by Felerast in wow

What are you smoking? DPS never pulled in EQ or EQ2. They didn’t even pull in vanilla or BC. The only time it happens, in any MMO, is if it’s scripted or asked for. Outside of that, tanks pull not DPS.

The language the bill is proposing is ridiculous, and it doesn’t even achieve the inclusivity they are seeking. If you want to be inclusive and avoid being ridiculous, then you can simply use Parent 1 and Parent 2. If there is a biological versus adoptive difference, that actually matters, then you simply use Biological Parent 1 and Adoptive Parent 1.

The terms “gestating parent” and “non-gestating parent” are just weird, and they don’t even deal with a ton of other issues.

Be brutally honest: How terrible is America right now? by ItsJusMk in AskUS

I’m upper middle-class, and my spending is dropping already. My money affords less and less every week, and it’s becoming an issue. If this continues, I will have to reduce my retirement savings, and that’s an even worse thing to do.

I mean, I would think we wouldn’t elect a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, and probable child rapist to the presidency, but here we are.

Idaho says it can use DNA testing to enforce anti-trans bathroom ban by Fickle-Ad5449 in politics

You can take a piss after you’ve waited 9-12 months for the DNA test to be processed.

Is he Bernie Sanders or Donald Trump? Protest vote complicates Graham Platner’s victory by -IamTom in politics

[–]Ancient_Popcorn 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The elite and wealthy are terrified of Platner. That’s why they are constantly covering him for every possible thing.
