As he considers immunity in a case centered on a president's refusal to accept his electoral defeat, Justice Samuel Alito suggested that not giving presidents immunity will actually discourage peaceful transfers of power.
Alito pressed Michael Dreeben, the attorney for the special counsel, on the idea that an outgoing president who looses a hotly-contested election will be disincentivized from leaving office peacefully because he will fear prosecution by the administration of his successor, a "bitter political opponent."

But we don't currently have immunity and this has literal never happened!

I just hit topic list out of habit and wondered why there were suddenly so many dumb topics on the board.

So he won a minor league championship basically.

Justice Elena Kagan pushed Trumps attorney on just how far presidential immunity could go, raising the hypothetical scenario of a military coup by an ex-president.
How about if a president orders the military to stage a coup? Kagan asked.
If its an official act, there needs to be impeachment and conviction beforehand through Congress, Trumps attorney, D. John Sauer, said.
Kagan asked if Sauer believed such a coup would be an official act.
On the way you described that hypothetical, it could well be, Sauer said.
That sure sounds bad, doesnt it? Kagan said.

"Just impeach the person doing a military coup" is so stupid.

How exactly is that a solution? You think they won't use the military to shut down the impeachment hearing also?

But how much of that is actually something the company gets credit for?

PC gaming existed before Microsoft and most the big PC gaming advances happened completely independent of Microsoft.

Like are you giving Microsoft credit for Steam? That doesn't seem right to me.

I'm out of loop did another board get banned? Or is title meant as keeping political discussions contained to this thread.

On Board 8 political discussion was largely kept to a single "containment" topic. With the new rules that topic has been banned so now it has to be created on this board for the group of us to keep having our conversations.

Well this will definitely not get invaded by non-B8 posters

Ash wins Alola? But I thought Journeys was what finally gave him the W to close the series off

.... ngl very petty but I hate that it's this ugly ass Ash to be called Champion

Yeah it was a story that got around at the time. That he finally won. Pretty sure winning here is what makes him eligible for thr champions tourney at the end of the series. I remember people being disappointed that this was the league he won but man I didn't realize his team was so bad. Did he bring back Charizard or some old pokemon as his 6th?

Pictures of him celebrating his win here were also the first time I saw the new design. It's so ugly.

Wow, yeah that's dumb.

Ooh what happened?

Yay for RWBY! Now I just need similar news for Death Battle and my podcasts.

The Apothecary Diaries

Haikyuu

a huge amount. my wife is all in on this

This

I just realized Yona of the Dawn aired in 2014. That's my actual #1.

I would have to include manga in a Top 10 because I read things way more than I watch. First two that immediately come to mind are Re: Zero and Dungeon Meshi, and after that it gets a lot fuzzier.

My list is probably very different if I include stuff I read. Though also some things would become ineligible due to starting too long ago.

I read way more than I watch.

My ranking of 2014-2024 anime:
Komi Can't Communicate
Spy X Family
Shaman King 2021
Apothecary Dairies (not finished)
My Roomate is a cat
Demon Slayer
Fruits Basket 2019
JuJutsu Kaisen
Aggretsuko
Bocchi the Rock

If I watched Haikyuu instead of reading it that would probably be #1.

Someday I will get around to posting my complete rankings. I'm sure it would be considered a weird list.

Apothecary

Haikyuu

Sounds easy to install, maybe I'll give it a try.

Anyone have experience with Pokemon Infinite Fusion? It seems like a lot of fun but I haven't done any ROM games in ages and don't know how complicated it would be to get it running.

Strife2 posted...

Yay, more Maomao fans.

I love that she (at least initially) is showing more interest in the assistant than the pretty guy.

We started watching Apothecary Diaries. Very good show, Maomao is a fun crazy character.

That 3rd episode especially was so good.

Haikyuu

That kind of flash mob choir has been done a number of times.

I just put "choir flash mob" into YouTube and found a bunch of different videos. Do you remember the song or location to help narrow it down?

omfg early in my watch-through I thought for sure they would be toned-down in the future

holy shit I wasn't expecting to get these goods in 2018

If anything it seems like it's been turned up!

Wife and I went to the Spy X Family movie today and loved it. Super fun and cute.

for blackface that's 5/7 of the English banned episodes, albeit 3 times for Jynx. SM64 is the first blackface issue that isn't Jynx tho (the other bans were James's boobs & the guns in the Tauros Safari Zone ep)

This is what I was referring to. I had not taken Jynx into consideration though.

Wait, again? That happened before?

I can't wait for future SMFFFCs to be done via gauntlet

is hair one of Storms mutant powers

I still want to know how she can make her outfit just appear.

She has done it before with the white outfit but now she is cresting new clothes so it wasn't just something special with that being a hidden outfit or something.

Grimlyn posted...

next day they meet again and James tries to push Mareanie in to being with Toxapex to be happy and starts doing what Ash did to Charizard and say he'd be better off to encourage Mareanie to go. Mareanie cries, Toxapex wants to fight James for making Mareanie cry, they battle it out James vs Toxapex slap fight. they get exhausted and earn each others respect, Mareanie thanks Toxapex for the battle

then out comes a Tentacruel trying to attack them, James intervenes, grabbing Tentacruel's tentacles and just fucking hauling it into the sun holy shit. Toxapex is impressed and wants to give a Corsola horn and starts chasing him around with blushies which infuriates Mareanie out of her jealousy for James again (episode started with Mareanie scaring off a Frillish James was about to catch because she was jealous and doesn't want James to have any female pokemon)

What a bizarre episode.

Simple and clean, I like them.

I am worried about what the Broncos will pull out.

I absolutely loved when he was doing the roll out for Mandaroey Fun and slowly revealing songs. It was great.

News to me.

Edit: And now I see why, nobody posts there.

I did not know that Discord had a forum mode.

he had its predecessor, the IWGP Heavyweight Championship. they merged the IWGP Intercontinental Championship with it to make it more uh... worldly.

I did not know that. Thanks for the info

I went with water for me as I'm pretty "go with the flow".

Grimlyn posted...

definitely a lot not by battle!

Surge was an epic face-off Pikachu won standing on its tail
Saffron Ash made Sabrina laugh with a pokemon he never caught
Celadon, the gym caught fire during the match and Ash helped save the pokemon
Fuchsia... isn't really memorable for me but the battle resumes & Charmander wins
Cinnabar, Charizard wins rematch at the volcano, I think the first Seismic Toss?
Viridian, Giovanni gotta leave to deal with Mewtwo so Ash beats Team Rocket for the nth time

Honestly three legit wins (I'm not counting besting Team Rocket) was better than I remembered.

Is this the first day to not have a poll?

Don't forget Omega.

holy shit Brock & Misty just bodied Ash by pointing out that he only won their badges out of pity in front of his whole Alolan class who are on a field trip to Kanto

I feel like Ash only legitimately won one badge in Kanto.

I think you mean Villagers. We are generally the ones sending out creepers.

I just saw a car with a Wolverhampton sticker on it in my town.

Wish I could have gotten next to him since he had his window open but sadly wasn't possible.

Iran's mission to the UN is saying this attack is a response to Israel bombing the Iranian embassy in Syria and that "the matter can be deemed concluded."

Oh yes I'm sure it's all over now. Why would Isreal respond to an attack on them in any way?

Dont watch shows just for the sake of it.

This took me far to long to learn.

Many thanks to Suits and Semi here on B8 for finally getting me to get over that mentality. I have saved a lot of time since.
