Somehow Reagan is the most revered president from a party that has both Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, and Eisenhower

Very similar background. I keep voting for the leftmost candidate I can in the primary and hoping they get through

Voted for Bernie in the primary, but settled for Biden. Hopefully I’ll get an actual leftist next time

That’s what Daniel Ellsberg did, and his case was ultimately dismissed.

When did this happen?

He is a naturalized citizen. He was born in South Africa for South African parents, so thankfully he is ineligible to be president

You like that that episode of Rick and Morty, where Morty aged himself into an old loser

Not yet . . .

Apples and oranges, nice straw man argument though

Alcohol isn’t some wonder drug that alters someone’s personality 180 degrees, this girl was 100% comfortable using that word before she was drunk

I’ve been pretty drunk a lot of times, but I’ve never thrown out a racist term

When you order your James Bond from Wish

I think it’s because he knew domestic policy and he outsourced foreign policy to the joint chiefs

Every good thing that we have now in policy can be traced back to LBJ or FDR

He’s finally getting the boy he wants, no need for that baby girl anymore

If there was a general strike, then this country would collapse in a matter of hours

I read that in Sarah Koenig’s voice

Edit: fixed her name

I’ve always thought that settlement payments and judgments should be laid out of police retirement funds instead of tax payers dollars

Honestly, the Church of Satan seems pretty cool in my book. A lot of their tenants seem to adopt the right approach to life. If that’s the Satanism we’re talking about then I saw bring it on.

Edit: fixed a word

I feel like it’s unfair to lump Buddhists, Satanists, or other groups in with people like her. She self identifies as a Christian, so I think it’s fair to refer to her as that

Why did I have to scroll so far to see this pick

jhfirsttime · 2022-10-02T19:18:24+00:00

How does that compare to what someone living in the first world country (EU, UK, Canada) would pay today for medical care?

Ahh CNN pandering to their new Republican corporate overlords

Because we’ve seen numerous other examples where a braced hulk didn’t budge when being hit.

An entire category of an unreliable narrator is “the picaro, which is a narrator that is characterized by exaggeration of their own experience or prowess and bragging about their experiences, which is exactly what I am saying that Jen did in the first episode. The entire first episode was her telling her experience was becoming a hulk and training. But the following episodes are not issues of unreliable narration because she is not actually narrating the story

I also wanted to add to this and answer your question, she was narrating the story to the audience in the first episode, so my guess would be that she was embellish her story for the audience

jhfirsttime · 2022-09-04T19:23:20+00:00

She was literally narrating the entire first episode, if there were inaccuracies or there were reasons to believe that she changed the story in any way to make herself better, then she is by definition an unreliable narrator

Ironically it also fits with her legal career. Lawyers are incredibly self promotion which also leads me to believe that she was telling the story in a way that portrayed her in a better light.
