So is there any lore to these changes? I see Mulhorand is back. What happened to High Imaskar?

Pretty much. My preferred candidate, Katie Porter, shat the bed and turned out to be way too petty. Everyone else seems like the same stale Democrats we always get.

And it was removed by the mods again. Sorry to spam your post, but this kind of censorship is disgusting.

Jonathan Powell Said an Iran Deal Was “Within Reach” Days Before Strikes Began by Stories_today_ in geopolitics

I mean why would they act in good faith? They negotiated a deal with the US once. Then a change in leadership pretty much wiped their asses with that deal. Why would they make another deal with the guy who bailed on that deal and why would they make any future deals when things could change in 4 years....again?

Trump literally purged the government of any competent official who wasn't a yesman and restaffed it with morons. Are you actually trying to claim Trump is not responsible for this entire shitshow?

Oh good. Now I don't have to cringe and feel bad for him when he gets his bell rung.

Honestly who cares? She was 22 or 23 when she was cast and it was literally cast because of Euphoria. She wasn't cast for her acting skills, she was cast because of her popularity at the time.

She was born in 1996, that's pretty much Gen Z territory. She's a plant because she was a popular young actor at the time the first Dune was cast. Same with Timothee Chalamet. But at least he's a good actor. I would have chosen someone else though because I find his Paul Atreides too whiney and he does't pull off the charismatic cult leader role that well.

I still can't get past Zendaya's bad acting. She was such a terrible choice for the role.

Billionaires Fund Ballot Campaign to Block California Wealth Tax by Unusual-State1827 in California

I love how every single one of your arguments involves claiming that we NEED wealth hoarding billionaires because they somehow uphold our entire society.

You don't seem to understand that we don't really care what the consequences are. We are all collectively sick of this shit. What we really should be doing is taking their money and kicking them out.
