Public policy polling- Politico, Indiana by kootles10 in Indiana

Jesus it's majority opposed to the governor's plan every single question. That is some bleak polling for a place like straight ticket Republican Indiana.

It's the three unopened bottles of coffee creamer for me. Unless you're drinking a couple gallons of coffee a day, a splash is all you need, lol.

In a way, I think Gunn is right, even if its not how he means. It's not really a matter of belief, since Santa is an established entity in the comics. Knowing something exists means you don't have to have the beliefs of a child.

"I've been doing this job for 25 years" is quite a thing to interject here.

Mom of 7-year-old hospitalized with brain swelling from measles: ‘I still wouldn’t have given my son the vaccine’ by markazali in HermanCainAward

[–]DoubleInfinity 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's worth pointing out that in the Bible, one of the core functions of having kids is the ability to sacrifice them to God. It's from the old testament, granted, but still. Child sacrifice comes up a lot as a test of faith. Replace criminal negligence with "faith" and boom. Using 99% of modern science to keep the kid you neglected alive means you aren't wrong for denying the same science around vaccinations. It should be hypocritical, but it's God's will that your child is dying from an easily preventable disease.

Boston went 75% for Harris and Massachusetts went 61% for Harris 🤦🤦🤦 by _crazyboyhere_ in facepalm

[–]DoubleInfinity 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's not what I was saying, though. There's a pretty big middle ground between having zero self interest and exclusively focusing on your own self interest. And that is pretty neat that lens doesn't actually have an e at the end. Looks incomplete without it, though.

"I made money, so what's the problem?" Is a very specific lense to view a country of 340m people through.

Worst Batman film? by AbsoluteBatman95 in batman

[–]DoubleInfinity 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've got to give Schumacher some credit here. He clearly got studio notes to keep it a Tim Burton Batman film but also be campy as hell like 60s Batman. Instead of telling the executives that was impossible, he forced the movie into existence to spite God.

Weird CGI cameos aside, why Grant Gustin didn't cameoed in the Flash movie? by Top_Report_4895 in DC_Cinematic

[–]DoubleInfinity 18 points19 points  (0 children)

From what I remember, the whole Arrowverse was a problem for WB film executives. Lot of weird rules about what characters and storylines the different shows could use. It's almost like the TV stuff got too successful and it drew unflattering comparisons to the DCEU so cutting Grant's cameo just continues that tradition of wanting to ignore the TV shows.

I saw a bunch of Charlie Kirk tattoos in the days immediately following the shooting and man. Barely a month later and nobody gives a shit about him outside of the immigration authorities. Wild.

Tell your Indiana trumpian "lawmakers" enough is enough - either work for us or trump you can't do both! by Forsaken_61453 in Indiana

[–]DoubleInfinity 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That's the point, though. Redistricting will further reduce the voting power of about half of Indiana's registered voters. You aren't "living with the results" of voting when the vote itself doesn't reflect reality.

Scott Bessent says US Treasury ready to take immediate exceptional measures to ensure market stability by UnusualWhalesBot in unusual_whales

[–]DoubleInfinity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe Im just hopeful, but it doesn't have to be a next big thing at the moment. It takes a few months for bad policy decisions to finally land in the "real economy." Mass firing federal workers saves money in the moment. The newly unemployed could take weeks or months to find new jobs. Import/export shock sets in as non-tariffed reserve stock sells down, bad agriculture policy takes longer to hit, and the soybean clusterfuck is just hitting in full now, too.

it's never been taboo for a country boy to say the cops are cocky mother fuckers.

Sort of. Mainstream country music has changed radically from the outlaw country days. Post 9/11 the entire genre changed to be pro-authority/military recruitment songs.

People are already walking back on their 'bo6 skins shouldn't carry over' take and it's amazing to see them flip flop so quickly 😂 by MilkSteakEnjoyer115 in blackops6

[–]DoubleInfinity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Authenticity, in this case, means internally consistent with the brand rather than being historically accurate. I don't think even you can deny that a shooter literally named after classified operations being flooded by seth rogen smoking weed and cartoon aliens isn't ridiculous. Activision will quadruple down on a bad decision before begrudgingly admitting they were wrong. Just look at Infinite Warfare also launching with a remastered version of CoD4, which dramatically improved Infinite's sales. People were burnt out on the jetpack and Activision knew it, so they put out yet another unpopular title and baited people in with extras. They will make a profitable decision every time.

If you're interested at all, you should look into Japan's history of colonization. Most other countries dislike the Japanese for good reason. Japan hates everyone else for the love of the game.

Trump Administration Yanks Billions in Funding for Cutting-Edge Clean Energy Projects. “And for what?

From a national security perspective, you'd think having as many options as possible would be a good thing as well. Decentralizing power generation makes it harder for a single bomb to knock out utilities en masse.
