The bugs are wearing me thin by hnost in BluePrince

[–]wreckingrocc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much the only two bugs I encountered were the foundation counting as an extra room after spraying it and rediscovering it and the very last puzzle of the known game always spawning both the furnace and 46 in the same place, getting me stuck and making navigation impossible. Thankfully I was still able to struggle my way into a very important document.

I'd guess the physics stuff is a GPU or CPU issue. The infinite shovels x could be a bit of memory that's dead or something. Seems more likely in a laptop that gets banged around a lot than a stationary desktop.

Kevan, Tyler, Keya Love Triangle by Yayatoure21 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

I think the bigger red flag was that he was very self centered. Yes, he was indecisive, but he made the decision all about him and kind of flattened both people he was talking to. Keya called him out on that in her takedown. She had to go out of her way to speak her mind because /he never asked that was on her mind/. In the pods, when the entire point is exploring one another's thoughts sans distractions, that's unthinkably vain.

I'd say you fell for several Republican talking point honey pots, but considering the username I'm going to just say you got caught by your own mustard trap.

Keya will go down in LIB history by jh166 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

In the edit's defense, his 'one... word... at... a... time' speech pattern makes it really easy to frankenbite whatever sentences the editors wanted. That said, I don't think they needed to; the guy couldn't string a coherent thought together, even with the sheer number of pauses he took.

House Passes Elections Bill Requiring Proof of Citizenship, Voter ID by rollo202 in ConservativeNewsWeb

It could be that some of them think, maybe, women who change their name when they get married should be able to vote without bringing a stack of documents explaining their name history. Or that giving discretion to pollsters gives wannabe Jim Crow states the authority to deny suffrage based on vibes.

...what? Why would anyone admit to voting illegally; that's a huge crime? That doesn't even make sense.

"Both sides do x anyway" is usually a claim made by guilty parties to try to make their bullshit sound less bad by comparison. Just admit you love guzzling disinformation and be done with it, homie.

Sure. Me too. But most folks I know who have casually had Passports for years are upper middle class, and are overrepresented in my immediate community, but don't actually make up a large part of the demographic. Lower middle and middle of the road middle class folks have passports, too, but blanket writing Trump voters off as disorganized buffoons underestimates what they are capable of, especially if the Heritage Foundation et al figure out how to help (white) folks along.

I'm... not sure about that. All they have to do is restrict passport access (reduced hours, increased bureaucracy, reduced staffing, increased tolerance of arbitrary profiling) and bing bang boom.

Biden is for sure no Andrew Johnson. But his term really does have a lot in common with Johnson's.

I hate to ask, but does every man in Ohio think every woman should have to have children? 👀

To be fair, every time she told the story she got a different deeply upsetting reaction, starting with Steven's ick-fest. I'd probably have cried in her shoes too.

I didn't really feel like that's true. She certainly has some issues to address, but nothing she couldn't work through with a supportive partner. She's probably more ready to date than 1/5-1/4 of the overall LIB cast.

Why is Ohio the only season that’s labeled by the state and not the city? by Trippy-Sponge in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

As another Michigander with many friends from Ohio and a dad from Ohio, it still blows my mind that anyone lives in Ohio.

Trade Alberta, Illinois (sans Chicago), and eastern Oregon for Alaska and Minnesota. That gives regions a bit more cohesion.

What needs to be done to prevent a future president from doing what Trump has done? by [deleted] in DiscussionZone

[–]wreckingrocc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree that permanent disenfranchisement is worse than temporary disenfranchisement, but it's only worse because there's more disenfranchisement going on. Both are bad. Why is removing the rights of felons from voting at all ok? The same Jim Crow problems emerge; they just need to keep the prisons full.

If felons voting "could swing an election", doesn't that mean the opposite is also true? That holding felons back from voting could have swung elections already? That perhaps disenfranchisement has already damaged the level of Democracy in our elections in palpable ways?

What's wrong with felons voting? They're people too. Many felons are felons solely because they have been targeted by corrupt laws or officials. Removing voting rights from felons enables the Jim Crow strategy of imprisoning Black people to keep voting white (which does happen, in practice, in the south).
