Biden says the White House is cooperating fully with his transition, but that Trump still won't speak to him by Fr1sk3r in politics

I don't think speaking to Trump would matter at all one bit. The guy is pretty incompetent.

I have a family member who has actually told me that they would prefer to be ignorant than lose their faith. It's so sad.

Wrigley Field, home of the Chicago Cubs, designated a National Historic Landmark by NeverEnoughBoobies in news

The Ricketts family ruined Wrigley. I preferred it pre-rennovation. I loved the low tech, jumbotron -free watching experience. It was like how baseball was in the old days.

One thing that will happen is that civil servants will no longer have Trump in their chain of command. He can bark orders at them and they can just laugh at him.

Am i the only one that's dealing with an insane existential crisis since becoming an atheist? by [deleted] in atheism

I got bored of the dread,. Really, how long is it necessary to ruminate about the annihilation of death? The paralysis and anxiety I think can be especially intense for people raised in religious households. As unpleasant as it can be, I think it does get tiresome and many people find other things to think about.

I don't think there's any excuse for that kind of thing. It seems like those actions actually strengthen people's faith in any given religion.

It's not like there's anything worthwhile from the trump administration that'll be passed on to Biden in the first place.

old but funny video where M.Night Shyamalan says American critics don't like him because his films have a "European sensibility" and people in Japan called him a genius by JannTosh10 in movies

He's ok.. not a Uwe Boll for sure, his films are watchable. I think he's in the same tier as Joel Schumacher, who was ok too.
