lololol do you even know the type of people whove previously been elected and are currently serving office in congress/the senate?

theyre all randos with a variety of different backgrounds. If the only people we elected were people with political science degrees wed be in even worse shape

we famously elected a president with ZERO governing experience. Actually, multiple presidents.

You could try like actually engaging with what I said instead of making up something entirely different.

At no point did I even mention any degree, let alone political science degrees. At no point did I say randos dont get elected.

What I did say was they dont know what they are doing when they start. And indicated that it would be worse with term limits due to a lack of experienced members to learn from.

Are doctors and engineers elected by the public for their positions? Nope. You're comparing items that are vastly different by circumstance.

Fresh perspectives are undervalued in politics, mainly because we rarely get to even see them. Politics is not a career path, it's a public service.

If

It still requires expertise that is acquired by doing it. A random person becoming a congressperson or senator will not know what they are doing. And it would be even harder if theres no experienced folks to help the new people.

No. I barely know anyone and randos have no reason to ask me. Or know I exist.
Also, I have never even taken a nude pic.

Im currently against them for the legislature. Theres value in having some experienced legislators whove been around for like 20 years. No point in long ones, while short term limits means you keep getting rid of them just when theyve started to get the job down.

It doesn't matter if they don't win those voters. All that matters to them is that they don't vote Biden. They were never going to get them to vote Republican, but them choosing to just abstain from voting Biden in tight races is basically a net victory for them.

Yep. Someone who'd normally vote for your opponent deciding to not vote is a 0, -1. Every two of them provides the same value as one voter switching their vote to you( 1, -1 and 0, -2 both move the vote by two in your favor).

Noon to 8 pm most closely matches my work schedule.

This is annoying. I can go back into a topic and see way less posts than the first time. Plus the site keeps going into read only mode in the afternoon.

Their three most popular songs on Spotify are:

1. Airhead
2. Rerun
3. Distracted

There's no right way to do it.

If the goal is to kill someone while minimizing suffering, then there is a right way.

You can disagree with the goal, but doing so doesnt change the fact that thered be a right way to accomplish it.

To do it right you want a sealed chamber that starts out pumping in regular air and then switches to nitrogen without the person being killed knowing it happened.

If you avoid CO2 buildup and minimize panic, nitrogen asphyxiation is going to be humane.

The way Alabama did it was absolutely the wrong way which is why it went badly.

No. Vegeta needed a rich wife.

10 because of the pink monster (pipeline punch flavor) on the thumbnail. Brings back memories of my past life

Lol. I expected people to like instantly leave the topic when they saw the thumbnail/cover art/whatever. Didnt expect someone to say it is a 10 because of it.

Hm, I like some hyperpop but I'm not sure how I feel about this one, it feels a bit too overproduced. Might have to give it another listen.

If you do, say what you think about it.

I haven't voted yet because I tend to dislike voting in my own polls. But does anyone want to guess what I'd vote for if I was to vote?

5 one votes
2 twos
1 seven that is a post but not a vote
1 ten

Lets see if folks on around this time have a different opinion. <_<

Yes, that does. Don't believe I've ever seen an episode of SilverHawks.

Would the real Trump harvest their organs to live decades longer than he should?

I have no idea what either of those replies mean.

No idea why, but I also thought of that.

Hell no. That shit is already the easiest stuff to remember. Dont need to make it worse.

Im leaning towards plants. If we understand them thats what I want, if it is just I can emit communication chemicals like a plant then I might go with butterflies.

The host asked if any of six names she listed was on his shortlist, and he basically said, "sure, all of them are" ....?

That's either the luckiest guess in human history or he was just bullshitting. I'm assuming the latter.

Yeah. He probably hasnt thought much about it yet. Other than it definitely not being certain people.

He could, but this looks more impressive.

If places can be labeled as "no fly zones" I don't see why people can't simply be labeled "no fly."

They can and they are.

Satan, obviously.

Nope.

So if I accept this Id not be able to go to the climbing gym for a week. :/

Am I allowed to take them off when I need a different type of shoe?

Enough. Have the nuclear triad and things set up to ensure mutually assured destruction in case the neighbors or whoever try to nuke me.

I don't see how it would be possible to win.

Then they'll judge you twice as hard cuz you'll be a double virgin with this deal

Fine by me, cause I judge them right back.

Are there any songs that you say you hate, but you actually like?

NeonBoobs posted...

And people will just pick up that you're a virgin and judge you for it >_>

I already am one though. I'd be totally fine with being the virginiest virgin who ever virgined.

Oh no, Id be a double virgin. How terrible.

Id take this deal a million times.

They go through a brief phase where they are hyperactive. Then go back to being lazy once fully grown.

Oh I forgot. On discord I'll tend to use x just if you do like 4*5*6, you'll get 456

Oh no, my question got skipped because it was at the end of a page so no one saw it.

Would you prefer a house with no windows or a house with no doors?

I mean... good. Religion is sorely lacking in our society today and it'd be good to marry Christianity into all forms of life.

No. It would make society worse.

Let's say ethically.

Then there's no level of wealth that is wrong.

Now if it is acquired unethically, then even only having a dollar could be unethical. If let's say you got it by beating up a 4 year old.

And no, billionaires who donate to charity don't get a pass. If, after your donations, you're still a billionaire, you aren't donating nearly enough.

Someone can be a billionaire and have way less than a billion in actual usable wealth.

Like if you turned Elon Musk into a good person, he'd still be a billionaire just from how much of SpaceX he'd need to own to keep it on mission.
