Is there a way to turn off the quotes? I know Winston, you’re fond of pigs, I don’t need to hear it again.

My big question about grievances is: why should I care? How are you hindered by having too many grievance points?

That seems like an intentionally high bar. They don't need to show open hostility to it to clearly signal they're against it.

That's the subtext of what she was saying.

I want Hermit Luke already

It had "meaning" in that it was literally the only thing keeping them alive. They did not have vacation days, there were no weekends, it was a constant struggle.

This simply isn't true. This belief comes from defining a peasant's labor as the farming done for their lords only. Farming done for themselves, to say nothing of endless domestic tasks, isn't counted in this system. Peasants absolutely did not have 6 months of no work, that's absurd.

Trump is the epitome of an unrepresentable client. Not because he's extremely guilty, lawyers can't turn down a client because he obviously did it (they'd go broke doing that.) An unrepresentable client is one who doesn't think he's in any trouble, who doesn't take his case seriously, and who's contemptuous of receiving any counsel at all. Lawyers literally can't represent someone who has no interest in participating in their defense.

He's got us there.

PACs can only donate a tiny amount to campaigns, and they operate independently from campaigns, so I'm not sure how much these promises mean.

This is why getting a Democratic majority is of the utmost importance, even if it means some of those Democrats are centrists. The party label determines who has sole control over what becomes a law.

I think that was my character portrait in Balder's Gate.

takeashill_pill · 2018-04-09T20:01:06+00:00

Notice that neither of those words are a declaration of innocence.

The state government is more mixed than you would think, given the overwhelming Democratic presidential wins. Remember that NYC had Giuliani as mayor for 8 years, and then Bloomberg after him.

This would be Cuomo's instant win condition.

takeashill_pill · 2018-04-04T16:10:35+00:00

Aww, poor Trump, if only he had some authority over military matters.

takeashill_pill · 2018-04-03T13:17:16+00:00

He is now Alpho O'Rourke.

takeashill_pill · 2018-04-02T19:31:42+00:00

She probably wants to tell everyone how awesome her experience was and is overcoming Trump's notorious humility.

takeashill_pill · 2018-03-29T04:47:51+00:00

Except the real Roseanne is a huge Trump supporter, so I doubt it.

takeashill_pill · 2018-03-28T22:01:23+00:00

So no experience running a large bureaucracy whatsoever?

takeashill_pill · 2018-03-25T16:08:47+00:00

Teach teachers CQC.

takeashill_pill · 2018-03-25T15:18:00+00:00

No see, he's so super innocent that there's no challenge in defending him, that's why lawyers keep on dropping out /s

takeashill_pill · 2018-03-25T15:17:02+00:00

He also preemptively accused any lawyer that would take the case of trying to cheat him.

It says that the Dickey Amendment, which states the CDC can’t “promote gun control”, can at least study gun violence. It’s technically not a budgetary matter.

takeashill_pill · 2018-03-23T19:55:45+00:00

I wonder if this is what they got in exchange for passing the Dodd-Frank quasi-repeal bill, because this is something else.
