| Topic | Nancy Pelosi, on her support for a smaller covid relief bill |
| Anteaterking 12/04/20 6:42:54 PM #36 | I don't understand reading the situation as "Nancy Pelosi wants people to get less money" instead of "Americans aren't getting any stimulus right now and the election hasn't unseated GOP power in the senate either". --- |

| Anteaterking 12/03/20 9:16:16 PM #69 | averagejoel posted... jesus christ people are still going on about this? I mean the reasons the numbers are more believable in America isn't because of some moral superiority but rather because the reporting is decentralized among states, counties, etc. --- |

| Topic | If Biden cancels student debt. Do the people who paid them off get refunds? |
| Anteaterking 11/30/20 7:01:27 PM #44 | VanananaHeyHey posted... I do think there ought to be a stimulus for people who paid of some $X amount within a certain Y time period, because the people who ate lots of sweet potatoes and paid their loans aggressively also could/should/ought-in-a-just-world have been able to make at least some of those payments toward a car/house/nursery/business/stock investment/entrepreneurial venture if the economy were less rigged. I think cutting stimulus checks to people *is* outside of the ability of just the executive branch. --- |

| Anteaterking 11/30/20 6:44:20 PM #32 | Solid Snake lives in a world where it's all the pundits, Biden campaign people, etc. who are wrong about whether Biden hypothetically can do this and not him. --- |
| Topic | If Biden cancels student debt. Do the people who paid them off get refunds? |
| Anteaterking 11/30/20 6:15:20 PM #17 | Damn_Underscore posted... The problem with forgiving all student debt is that the reasons it got so bad in the first place all still exist and a new student debt crisis will surface before long The goal of this is to stimulate the economy in the short term as well as protect people during COVID from excess costs when people are at risk of being evicted. Also "this won't solve the student debt crisis forever" is just an excuse to just do nothing instead. --- |
| Topic | NFL is now pondering a third postponement of the Ravens-Steelers game |
| Anteaterking 11/30/20 5:32:55 PM #25 | Medussa posted... unless it gets moved to week 18. or cancelled, leading to a 16 team playoff, denying the steelers (or chiefs) a bye week. Fair caveat. --- |
| Topic | NFL is now pondering a third postponement of the Ravens-Steelers game |
| Anteaterking 11/30/20 5:27:04 PM #22 | Ravens had an uncontrolled COVID spread. Broncos had it contained to just a small group. The NFL sent out a memo earlier this year that decisions weren't going to be made based on positional groups, i.e. if you have four people out it doesn't matter if it's 4 QBs or 4 random players: if it's contained, you're playing. Broncos QBs lied about their exposure which is the whole reason why this thing changed so late in the week. There's this weird idea that this postponement is going to help the Ravens, even though anyone who tested positive can't play for 10 days, so they're still absolutely fucked when it comes to the Steelers game. And they're going to be fucked for more games because of the actual illness. So the idea that the Broncos are "punished more" and should have let it spread so that they could get a postponement is idiotic. --- |

| Topic | No, you're NOT a gamer |
| Anteaterking 11/28/20 12:07:59 PM #66 | I think my only gatekeeping for the word "gamer" is that you should be better/more invested/etc. than your average person. The same way with people who say they are "TV junkies" who watch a few hours of TV a day. --- |
| Topic | Trump won big among voters with no social ties |
| Anteaterking 11/28/20 11:40:56 AM #57 | It's always funny to me that conservatives think liberals or people on the left have the same "marching orders" structure as right-wing media creates. See also: any time people are like "You guys wouldn't dare call out Bill Maher!" --- |
| Topic | Trump won big among voters with no social ties |
| Anteaterking 11/28/20 9:55:44 AM #4 | Among all voters: Biden was heavily favored by registered voters with larger social networks (53 percent to 37 percent), but it was Trump who had the edge among voters without any close social contacts (45 percent to 39 percent). --- |

| Topic | Does Trump win without COVID in the picture? |
| Anteaterking 11/27/20 11:29:49 AM #7 | Lot of things to consider. Some Dem operatives think that the lack of door knocking/canvassing due to COVID hurt them, since the GOP continued to chug along doing it in those places. --- |

Bro <i>Officers will now be required to announce their presence and purpose before entering, except in certain circumstances like hostage situations, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and Police Chief Medaria Arradondo said in a joint news release.</i> how is this not banning no knock raids?

I don't know, but that's the point since I don't live in bumble**** Indiana, but they have local problems and don't relate to what problems in my area are, so I shouldn't get a bigger say just because I live in a more populated area. You don't get a bigger say under the popular vote. You get an equal say. --- |

| Anteaterking 11/24/20 9:40:32 PM #12 | Proto_Spark posted... It wouldn't completely make them irrelevant, but campaigning in the rural parts of the US would be way less worthwhile and would see vastly less attention. They barely see any as is. Proto_Spark posted... I agree that its overrepresented as it is, but there needs to be something to help actually make sure that less popular issues are still dealt with. What are these less popular issues that are related to living in rural areas, not just things that are more/less popular in rural areas. --- |
| Topic | Have you ever participated in a local card game tourney? |
| Anteaterking 11/23/20 7:15:29 PM #17 | Touch posted... What that be? :0 In card games with draft (where you open a pack, choose one card around, pass it, etc. for a few packs (3 in MTG)) sometimes people will do "rare redrafts", where the person who wins gets to choose from all the rares opened and so on down to the person who got last. Hypothetically this is justified as "This way people try to win, instead of picking the $100 card over one that's better for their deck", but in practice it means people who open good draft rares (which are usually bad in constructed formats) get an easier win AND get the money cards. --- |
