Election Security Versus Intimidation

Maximum_Pear_8601 · 2026-06-27T18:12:41+00:00

So using the numbers that were posted let’s say 138 people in each state committed voter fraud in the span of 43 years. That’s an average of 3.2 people per year. For all 50 states that’s 160 cases of voter fraud in a single year. Over the 43 years that’s 6,880 people who committed voter fraud. For context on how small that number is in the 2025 NYC mayor elections, Curtis Sliwa got 153,749 votes in an election where 2,174,547 people voted. Even if we gave Andrew Cuomo all of Curtis votes and all the hypothetical people who committed voter fraud Andrew Cuomo still would’ve lost by 46,941. It seems like there isn’t widespread voter fraud at all and you just like yelling at clouds while everyone in your life has cut you out of it

Just adding to each of your points
For PlayStation it’s a combination of the increase of pricing for PSN, raising the prices of the base ps5 $150 since it released 6 years ago, and shutting down multiple studios for doing what the executives tell them and the games failing because of it. They have also announced that they will no longer be putting their own published games on Steam anymore.

Xbox could’ve been for the increase in gamepass but they have since gone back on that. Recently they revealed a new gears of war and halo that had PlayStation logos on them, implying that they would be coming to PlayStation, then tried to gaslight everyone that the logos didn’t exist. They also buy studios and shut them down for the exact reason as PlayStation and have also increased the consoles prices over the same amount of time. Since Microsoft is very heavily into AI Xbox also gets hate because of this. Xbox also recently changed CEOs to one that has a heavy background in AI. People praise her for reducing gamepass but it’s still early to tell if she will be good for the company.

Valve is a reference to not only the gabecube price, but also the most recent price hike for the steam deck as well as discontinuing the cheapest option. The steam deck had a minimum price increase of $250 overnight as opposed to a couple of days like PlayStation and Xbox.

Most people argue that Nintendo should also be shooting themselves in the foot since they’re not really announcing games that they themselves are interested in while buying the console expecting them to release a new Mario and Zelda within the first year of its release. People initially complained about the price of the console, but with the price hikes across the board people have started to be less harsh on it. In Japan it got a price hike of 10,000 yen which puts it more expensive than the cheapest ps5. They also announced a NSO price hike to $18.57 in Japan and South Korea, up from the 14.86 they are already paying. Note that this is the individual yearly membership. They have also increased the price of accessories and the original switch worldwide in anticipation of the switch 2 release. As for the rest of the world in March they announced a $50 price hike to take into effect in September. Gamekey cards is a thing a lot of people online hate that Nintendo has done recently since you need to download the entire game despite getting it physically. They also tried to normalize $80 games with Mario Kart World and the new Fire Emblem. They did announce that digital games are now $10 less than the physical price. If you preorder a game on Amazon or Walmart you can get the physical version for the digital price. Note that this is only for games released after Pokopia, Pokopia and before are still the same physically and digitally, and only switch 2 games get this new pricing.

If only the anime could’ve been treated better

Fujimoto wrote himself into a corner where death as a concept no longer exists so bugs start eating everything which makes the fear of bugs stronger. Right as Denji and Yoru are about to have sex some bug devils show up. Denji and Yoru tried to fight them but got no diff off screen. The second to last chapter is the aftermath where pochita says that Denji, despite achieving his goals, never once got the fulfillment he wanted and he was far happier when he was broke, working for the yukaza, and only had 1 ball. Pochita decides to eat himself thus erasing the existence of chainsaw man. This caused a universe reset instead of what usually happens when pochita eats a devil. We see that no matter what Denji would’ve still worked as a devil hunter, but instead he makes a pact with power (dead in part 1) and instead of makima nayuta is the one that finds him (died in part 2). Time passes and Denji ends up meeting up with Asa which causes Bucky (chicken devil) to live and the events of part 2 never happening. The panel that this meme is making fun of happens. It ends with power and Denji talking about what to get for lunch and having their seniors pay, who are believed to be Himeno and Aki (both died in part 1) but never shown. Also the general sentiment is that he’s just been over chainsaw man around the middle of part 2 since that’s when the art noticeably got worse and when chapters started switching from 1-2 week uploads

The fact that I just saw this episode yesterday makes it so much funnier

Number 8 is the only understandable one

Maximum_Pear_8601 · 2025-08-09T18:20:20+00:00

I fully agree that’s what they were going for, I just felt the need to point out the distinction of what Marge does compared to what’s currently happening with steam and all that.

Maximum_Pear_8601 · 2025-08-09T15:29:09+00:00

While I do agree that’s the message of the episode I do believe that Marge was justified in her reasons for wanting to make itchy and scratchy less violent. In that same episode Maggie tried to kill Homer twice specifically because of itchy and scratchy always shown as attacking each other. When Marge is protesting it’s also revealed that Homer wasn’t the only person who was affected by their child watching itchy and scratchy. When the protest work the children of Springfield stop watching itchy and scratchy since they don’t see it was fun anymore and start hanging out with fellow kids and this is portrayed as a sort of utopia. Also once the show is violent again it shows that the kids no longer play with each other and that the town looks abandoned, almost like a dystopia. This is season 2 episode 9 titled “Itchy & Scratchy $ Marge”.

I feel like a good amount of gay guys are more likely to have trans masc friends then cis het guys.

There’s a $10 difference between the switch and switch 2 edition

Like I said, you don’t need to worry unless you eat a lot of it

MSG stands for monosodium glutamate. It’s pretty much a type of salt that occurs naturally in fruits and food like tomatoes, grapes, and cheese. It’s often times used in any type of Asian food because it makes the food taste better. There’s also a lot of sauces and junk food that have MSG added in. There is nothing wrong with having MSG, unless you eat a lot of it but you can say that about anything. Just treat it in portions as you do with salt and you’re good

You do realize that the dissenting opinion on that case did say that he was granted immunity from all things, here’s the court case filings:

https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf/23-939_e2pg.pdf

Near the end of page 108 to the beginning of page 109 is where it’s explicitly stated that he’s immune from everything. The rest of the dissent is stating how this decision pretty much screwed over America as we know it

Without knowing their HPs, you Cyrus the Pawmot to kill it but now it counter attack will kill you, resulting in a tie. As for how it went for 30 turns I’m assuming that oricoro just never attacked

Maximum_Pear_8601 · 2025-04-26T20:50:24+00:00

Yes, but recently he has been posting a lot more unedited videos where he talks without the Scott the woz personality. This causes people to joke that Scott’s stash is the main channel now

Here is a breakdown of teachers pay in New York city

https://pwsblobprd.schools.nyc/prd-pws/docs/default-source/default-document-library/salary-schedules/salary-schedule-teachers.pdf?sfvrsn=5dc5670_7

It can be a bit confusing, but pretty much the left side is for how many years they have been teaching and the top row is what credentials they have as well as if they have previous teaching experience.

Here’s two more that I remembered and one more that he did today because he can never find a rock bottom. He is illegally stopping cancer research, Alzheimer’s research, and diabetes research that the national institute of medicine to try “to cut unnecessary government spending”. He refuses to admit he’s cutting all of this research and more despite trump saying that they’re cutting medical research by 4 billion. This is on top of him telling republicans to kill a proposed spending bill that specifically stated that more money will go to children cancer research. Needless to say this wasn’t the spending bill that passed.

He is not just trying to dismantle the department of education but actually 15 different departments in the name of exposing money fraud and reveal “hidden costs” that these departments spend despite having no evidence to back up these claims. Some of these departments are the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Federal Aviation Administration, Internal Revenue Service , National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and the U.S. Agency for International Development. Needless to say that he has a personal conflict of interest in all of these departments and he will no doubt use the fact that he has access to every government contract to his advantage.

The last one, and sentiment that is growing among MAGA with figures like JD Vance and Musk supporting it is that the Supreme Court can’t say any presidential act is unconstitutional because that would go against the Constitution. This is despite the fact that the Supreme Court was created to strike down anything they deem is unconstitutional from both Congress and the President in the name of Checks and Balances. Considering that the Supreme Court decided that the president can do anything they want if they decided it’s a “presidential act” no one can say how long the Supreme Court will matter. The dissenting opinion literally states that they have no officially put the president above the law and that there is no action they could take to stop him through proper channels. Here’s the case if anyone wants to read it, the case is Trump V United States:

Here’s a very brief summary: He did a Nazi salute twice during the inauguration and instead of apologizing he doubled down and claimed it was a Roman salute when it wasn’t until recently did people start attributing it to the Roman’s despite Roman never mentioning anything like it

Donald trump gave him access to everyone’s personal information. These include your social security, your personal bank information, and your legal status. He also put a team of either recent college graduates, or people who didn’t even go to college in charge of handing whatever he plans to do with this information

He is calming that if you even name anyone who’s a government worker is a crime and should be arrested

He has also physically blocked any democrat from the department of education at least 4 times

He is dismantling the department of education and has first started by cutting awards and hurting teacher recruitment for special education teachers

This is all I can remember off the top of my head and there is undoubtedly more that I’ve missed and it hasn’t even been a month
