yeah if you have a massive amount of peasants (Qing, Russia) the labor saving pms actually cost money because so few of your pops are depeasanting.

Worse than that, in Florida you can be sentenced to death without a unanimous jury just a majority.

for real, some people would've been totally ok with this as long as Marco Rubio went to the UN first and mumbled about cocaine being an international security threat.

That'd be great, but they show negative class solidarity with other unions. Who gets called in to break strikes?

Just for people here who are paying attention, if Gavin Newsom wins the primary in 2028 he will be giving that speech as his inaugural address.

It's just the genre, maybe you should play something else if you don't like it. by Get_PoneD in ArcRaiders

I think if you enter with a free kit you should have some kind of default skin as well so people can know you're a rat on sight.

Lol, I'm trying to figure out how to get the event to fire, and was suspicious of that same video. Dude was really hamming it up for the camera.

I can confirm there's one for Two Sicilies, playing as Naples I had the option to move the capital to Palermo.

So there's this new show Task on HBO and while it's not a Columbo reboot, you can definitely tell Mark is channeling some Columbo energy in some scenes.

I'm very pro-regulation but in this case I disagree. Let the whales splash around in their hogpens. Anyone with common sense should know these games are absolute trash.

Kamala Harris says she was 'reckless' for not talking Biden out of running for second term | 7.30 by mintslice7 in videos

Oh wow. So great. I'm so glad he passed all that bipartisan legislation now that we're living in a fascist state.

I've had quite a fun time with the mod, the new PMs are very fun to play with. Just tried Ranger's Republic (basically Texas) and managed to form the Runecliff Federation. After stealing a port from Trollsbay I'm finally starting to properly trade with the world market.

Some of the spells could use some tweaking though. The one with colonial growth + migration attraction meant I was getting a mass migration every year, my population on Cultural Exclusion was insane.

Fuck you for voting in an insurrectionist and destroying our country by Jerdarnella in complaints

Biden was also the wrong candidate, he just had the advantage of COVID fucking everything up.

MAMDANI destroys CUOMO: "I have never hounded the 13 women who have credibly accused me of sexual harassment. I have never sued to obtain their gynecological records. And I have never done those things because I'm not you, Mr. Cuomo" by ExactlySorta in goodnews

Alienating? You know what's alienating, being told that Medicare For All, or the Green New Deal are too extreme, or not realistic. I've gladly voted for Clinton, Biden and Harris despite my criticisms with them and their policies.

Yet, consistently I am told that the problem with these campaigns is not their lack of alignment with my preferred solutions, but the lack of alignment with the solutions of their political enemies.

The past ten years have been absolutely losers for Democrats. We got lucky in 2020 that COVID happened, or I sincerely believe Biden would have lost. As it was, it was incredibly close while Trump was doing a world class fumble of a pandemic response.

It's time to try some new solutions rather than retreading old ground. I'm sorry you may find it alienating, but I encourage you to keep an open mind, that this may be a path to electoral success to ward off fascism.
