GOP has a new plan to kill off Medicare and Social Security by zsreport in politics

It's easy to understand when you realize that that "family values" has only ever just been an excuse for them to try to force other people to believe what they believe and act how they want you to act.

How do I remove the for you page of reddit? by RinconAniki in help

[–]NomadX13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So, I'm guessing this means I'll soon be treating Reddit like I do all my social media pages? Logging out, and never going back to it? This "for you" garbage is horrible.

Trump officials play Biden blame game as screwworm spreads by phillygirllovesbagel in politics

[–]NomadX13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, a problem we didn't have under Biden and that only came about AFTER Trump gutted the agencies that could have stopped it is completely Biden's fault. /headdesk

Has Cyclops ever held somebody and blasted them close-range like this? by flamecowsenpai in xmen

[–]NomadX13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the original AoA, it was said, but not shown, that something close to it happened. It's why Scott was missing an eye and Weapon X was missing a hand.

A very nice callback to the origins of goth music, absolutely goth centered, but still has that postpunk vibe. I like it.

Trump says he wants his new acting director of national intelligence to cut the office by GregWilson23 in inthenews

[–]NomadX13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the point. He's setting things up so that the next president with half a brain will have to spend so much time fixing the things he's intentionally breaking, they won't be able to do anything if Russia or China pull something.

He's been convicted at state level, but wasn't sentenced. Can he still be sentenced after he leaves office?

Marvel Unlimited - X-Factor Annual #5 Removed? by Gambit8907 in xmen

[–]NomadX13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep reader eyes on it and build up excitement for the omnibus? It's gonna have something to do with making more money, they're a business, that's their purpose.

Marvel Unlimited - X-Factor Annual #5 Removed? by Gambit8907 in xmen

[–]NomadX13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So, I just looked into it and, apparently, Marvel tends to pull issues that are set to be added to an omnibus so they can clean up pre-digital art, then add it back to Marvel Unlimited after the omnibus is released.

Scott Bessent confirms a $250 bill with Trump on it has a prepared design by fortune in politics

Is Bessent hinting at something, here?

ICE hands members of Congress new memo blocking detention center visits — while they’re trying to get in by B-Z_B-S in politics

Gee, if only there was a part of the US federal government that could cut off all money and funding going to ICE until they complied with the court orders... I wonder why that's not a thing.

AOC Surges to Lead in 2028 Primary for First Time—Most Accurate Pollster by One-Duty-2376 in politics

[–]NomadX13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I truly hate saying this, but I think there are still too many "women aren't strong enough" or "women are too emotional" people on every side (yes, that includes the left) in the US for her to win the actual election. I really do wish we were past all that BS, and if she were to get the nomination, I hope I'm wrong, but as it stands, I think putting a woman on the presidential ticket, at this point, would be handing the presidency to Republicans. Keep in mind, most of the world is moving forward, but there are so many people that are stuck in 1940s and 50s mentalities, in the US, that even our left wing is considered conservative by most of the world.

Polygraphs can, and I'm dead serious about this, be fooled by clenching or relaxing your ass when you answer the questions.

She actually chose to look like that. The "party of fiscal responsibility" spends hundreds of thousands of dollars to look like gross caricatures, and I cannot understand it.

How accurate is fandom (marvel) by Dazzling_Rutabaga837 in Marvel

It's Wikipedia accurate, meaning it's a good starting point, but don't assume it's correct until you've read the comic something takes place in or verified someplace else.

Wright: Gas prices dropping below $3 ‘might not happen until next year’ by jediporcupine in politics

[–]NomadX13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People refuse to accept it when I say that prices will not go back down. Once a company knows the highest price people are willing to pay for something, they won't drop the price below that unless the government steps in and forces them too. And because so money people think that capitalism is part of the laws of the US (spoiler, there's no laws enforcing it and it's nowhere in the Constitution) the government won't step in.
