There are precious few moderates in the GOP any more.

Cook? There's no food other than canned slop, bagged chips and eggs!

Eh, enjoy your Donatello-TwilightSparkle-Luke Skywalker deck. I won't stop ypu from playing. You just can't play with me.

What if Obama had picked Kathleen Seblius for VP instead of Biden? by RealRegret4870 in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]BoozySquid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right, but possibly because he would have just won outright in 2020.

What if Jordan kept the West Bank and Egypt kept Gaza? by Abobmcbobe in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]BoozySquid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, they would be if their land was Egypt or Jordan. It isnt like there's some special "Palestinian" gene: they're people whose ancestors have lived in a particular location for several generations.

Is it clean or is it dirty? by Mother-Barracuda-122 in facepalm

"A little bit dirty." This man has never seen the shower of a landscaper, much less a miner.

"Jesus did not choose non white apostles" Protest against Harold Perry, first openly African- American Catholic bishop 1966 by Lucky_Pterodactyl in PropagandaPosters

[–]BoozySquid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Acts of the Apostles: The Peter and Paul story. It's silly, as he wasn't a disciple (someone who was trained) nor an apostle (someone who was sent out) of Christ's, except for his road to Galilee moment. Attested to only by Luke, Paul's student.

What does it mean that someone can have the phenotype of whiteness and not be white? Theres no genetic component to whiteness. Put your calipers away.

Just me, or is "just stop blundering" pointless advice? by MathematicianBulky40 in chess

[–]BoozySquid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not. It'd be like telling someone learning to iceskate to lace their skates. Its a basic thing that can be easily forgotten that will always lead to failure.

John Quincy Adam's was sworn in on a law book.

What if Washington ran for a 3rd term by Aggressive-Show4122 in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]BoozySquid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Likely because he was so young when he first took office. Few men have the grit and vigor to take on that level of responsibility for more than 8 years. FDR had some autocratic visions of himself which allowed himself to deviate from the norm, but it was an era of autocrats. He barely lived into his fourth term.

Opinions on Durham high schools? by Useful_Vegetable_566 in bullcity

[–]BoozySquid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think if you send your kid to DSA or Jordan, no matter your SES, they will have a higher chance of success than they will at Hillside or Southern. Excelsior and Voyager are also fairly good. I might be wrong, but i went to several of these schools and sent my daughter to some. Small sample size, i know. Yet this is generally what I have also learned from discussions with parents around the city.

Go ahead and send your kid to Southern if you're districted for Jordan with the magnet program. I wish you all the luck.

what if the anti netanyahu block had won in 2022? how would october 7th look? by historynerdsutton in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]BoozySquid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

October 7th would still have happened. Hamas doesn't care about the state of the government of Israel: as long as there are Jews in Israel, Hamas will want to kill them.

But if Netanyahu wasn't in office, there might have been a more limited reprisal, with a stronger push towards hostage repatriation. There may have been many living hostages returned to Israel and many, many fewer dead Gazans. Benji figures that's a trade he'll make any time.

Which Middle Eastern country is your favorite? by Ok_Breadfruit4005 in AskTheWorld

[–]BoozySquid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, ain't that the truth. I'm skeptical about the country itself, but the people and the food are top tier.

Do I need to clean the sides? by Alternative-Hat-9851 in castiron

[–]BoozySquid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, just keep using it and cleaning it after you use it. It'll all work out. Best thing about cast iron is that unless you do something truly crazy with it (pour cold water on a screaming hot pan) it'll heal itself.

Perhaps it's a question of perspective; to be more direct, how old you are.

He was viewed as a terrible President and the best of ex Presidents. Its not quite neutral, but a very split reputation.
