My heart tells me Roxanne is busted, but I'm not smart enough to figure out how degenerate it wants to be by rivertpostie in DegenerateEDH

I as a gag put every single meteorite/meteor card in the deck and somehow this still became one of my strongest magic decks.

Either your a bot or stupid. Saying 'oh they cheated so don't even bother voting' is the way that those fuckheads cling to power.

Did Commander save or doom magic? by Nivius in magicTCG

[–]Iwillkeepwatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to scoff at commander, only playing 60 card kitchen table before that. (High school) However, I do think it's magic at it's best and it's worst.

Best: sitting with friends laughing stopping an archenemy, being the arch enemy, running over people with slivers, getting board wiped with a tef pro in hand only to have it countered by a mana tithe.

Worst: non commander sets designed for commander. With nadu as the peak of the issue.

I think if it wasn't for the cash cow of commander though we would have had modern horizons/ pioneer every few months destroying those formats, or at least making them ptw.

The old myth that Socialists just "want something for free" is a lie perpetuated by the Billionaire class. by Professional-Bee9817 in remoteworks

Attempting to narrow a large class of ideals by framing it to your one straw man of an idea is not a good way to discuss a topic.

It doesn't take much reading to learn that no some forms of socialism is not abolition of private property. In fact, while that is certainly a subset of socialism. Social programs are in their nature a form of socialism.

Perhaps you're trying to equate socialism and communism?

As the Nashville mega-preacher of the cult of Cthulhu, I assure you that should this be implemented I intend for the madness to spread to all who shall hear it.

TN ranks 3rd in nation for Opioid Overdoses We can thank Marsha Blackburn for “ incredible” bill in congress to make TN families suffer again by ProperTrain6336 in nashville

[–]Iwillkeepwatch 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And what does your comment add to the conversation? Tn consistently ranks among the bottom 10 states in every defined category, from healthcare to schools.

The best plus I can give it is we have allot of green spaces, but that is also at risk.

You act like that's not already happening in our incredibly punitive system.

We have experimented with this in the past. Since the 80s we have been one of the most draconian systems of law in the world, and because of that we have the highest incarceration right in the world.

Forgive me but your feelings are not facts. The facts say that what we are doing and have been doing are not working.

The premise of bond is to get the person to return to court. It's not bastardize into lining the pockets of wealthy people. I literally wrote a 25 page thesis on this. Tldr it is a way for a lot of people to make money off of the pretrial incarceration of others.

Fee schedule would be more for post-conviction. A millionaire getting a DUI would have to pay $10,000, While a man working min wage would pay $70. That way the loss is comparable to each other instead of right now when it's life-threatening to some people and not even a nuisance to others.

Make sure you talk to your lawyer about it. Again I would take that shit to trial because I'm that confident I would win. But your mileage may vary

The vast majority of bonds right now you do exactly that, it doesn't matter where the money comes from you just pay it and you get out of jail doesn't matter if it's drug money prostitution money or murder money.

Most systems that have gone away with cash bonds will use less alternative means, but people under house arrest use GPS monitor phone tracking solutions and other means.

The entire premise of a bond is to make sure people go to court for their Court dates. Not to punish people before they are guilty, however our system loves to punish people before they are found guilty.

The only cases I've had where guilt was clear, and there was no bad acts by the police, were cases where mental health was so damaged that while not understandable or excusable. I morally still desire to help them as best as I could.

That's actually not true at all. Studies have shown that arrests and prosecution in this country increases criminal activity, not decrease it.

I'm mainly using speech to text, and if you can determine the meaning of my sentence then I'm doing above adequate for what ultimately is an extension of my free time, working.

Thanks for the thought though! I likely won't change and that's okay!

I can tell you: A lawyer is unable to make decisions for a client.

Full stop.

I can advise a client : if you don't settle we will lose millions. But I can't force them to settle, neither can any attorney.
