We said Medicare for All and your response was it will never happen and Biden will do the exact same thing Bernie would be able to.

Which is just...a fundamental misunderstanding (willful, obviously) of what Bernie even stands for, let alone wants.

More stuff added to the ACA is literally unacceptable to Bernie, because it still relies on a profit motive in healthcare.


To be more accurate, his argument was that there would be no difference in what they actually got passed due to not having a majority in congress.

But it was pointed out that Biden is more likely to make concessions to Republicans and he basically ignored that point.

I went to make an appointment for my hand, and was told that the local hospitals are so overbooked that theyve taken up space at my hand doctors (and other doctors) location, so I wouldnt be able to be seen for months. Yet another consequence of not flattening the curve.

Weren't you complaining about how people were making a big deal out of this for no reason a few weeks back?

Someone I know likely has it. I say likely because he couldn't get tested, but his doctor apparently said that he probably did have it.

Fortunately I haven't seen him in over a month, but he said it's been pretty bad.

Cuphead is definitely a lot harder than any of the four games listed (for main story content at least).

For main story, sure. But beating Cuphead's main story means you've seen like 99% of what the game has to offer.

Main story is like <50% of Celeste. And I'd argue beating Radiant in Hollow Knight is harder than beating Cuphead.

Also these games are very different so it's kind of weird to compare them!

hmm,

was looking into buying something cheapish and rewarding on switch! these were options i found on the nintendo eshop while browsing.

i figured that ugly 20s cartoon style one was too hard

Are you talking about Cuphead? Cuphead isn't actually that bad in terms of difficulty if you don't try to beat it on expert difficulty (which has no additional content, just harder fights)

In terms of enjoyment, Celeste > Ori > Hollow Knight > Cave Story. I've beaten all of them aside from Cave Story. Also Hollow Knight has some bullshit requirements for the super-extra-true ending, so I'm never gonna get that.

Seems like it gives me a good idea of what to expect from the game. As far as game teasers go, I'd say it's pretty good though it the teaser itself feels a little formulaic in the structure (not that that's necessarily a bad thing!)

Oh I agree that she wouldn't have been able to prevent it from affecting America, but I think she plausibly could have gotten it under control with a South Korea style solution (mass testing and tracking with temperature scanning) that would have potentially eliminated the need for total lockdowns. Trump wasted months of prep time that Hillary would have surely made use of.

Plausibly? Not really. I think it's severely doubtful we could have had it under control anywhere close to the degree South Korea does. There's a unique combination of less privacy (WAY more CTV and civilian tracking in Korea) a better medical system, and just overall a different culture that makes their response better than anything the US could have done.

Trump obviously fucked up, but I don't think the US was set up to succeed here regardless of president.

Im watching CNN at the moment and when it hit the top of the hour, CNN had a projection and behind Wolf Blitzer was a giant picture of Sanders with a CNN PROJECTION: SANDERS WINS MISSISSIPPI.

I audibly said holy shit and stood up. Then the screen started glitching out and Wolf Blitzer goes oh hold one were having technical issues this is supposed to say Joe Biden.

But for that half a second I thought I tasted happiness. All summer in a day.

Oof, I would've had the same reaction

I really don't understand the notion that Joe would have no chance to win without assistance from a pandemic/recession. Weren't you also claiming that Trump was a terrible candidate in 2016 and anyone besides Hillary could have beaten him? I don't see how those two things square.
