It’s worth mentioning that this has only been the case since the 1950’s. FDR was elected four times and died during his final term, after which term limits were added to the constitution in response.

Just called mine! I probably sounded like an ignoramus, but hopefully I said enough intelligible buzz words.

“Americans” did win their country back. We aren’t welcome in it anymore.

Today you may be a youth, but you will be an old someday.

I would die happy if I could watch an animated adaptation of Worm from the Parahumans universe. Live action would be cool, but I think a series in the same vein as Invincible would work well and could represent the source material better.

Joker: Folie à Deux.
The first movie was not about Joker, it is about Arthur. Joker is the unfortunate identity he takes on as a result of the events of the first film. But at the end of the day, he was just a guy. He was delighted but bewildered at the people rallying behind him.

!Folie a Deux picks up is after the police inevitably apprehend Arthur. He is on medication, and speaking to a mental health professional regularly. He doesn’t want to be Joker, but everyone around him expects him to be. The tragedy of the ending is that Arthur rejects the love and admiration he has earned, knowing it will not redeem him to the people who hate and fear him now. He chooses to be completely alone and powerless to stop hurting people.!<

As far as the musical numbers went, they were infrequent and clearly a representation of the connection between Arthur and Lee. There was at least one scene where we view Arthur from the perspective of onlookers after he finished singing and dancing, but all they saw was him staring at a TV or something. I always felt like the songs added to character development, but even if they weren’t your thing they were brief and heavily outweighed by scenes with just dialogue.

• What color was the ball?
  Grey, I suppose? It wasn’t important until this question so it was kind of colorless, even though I could picture it.

• What gender was the person that pushed the ball?
  Androgynous.

• What did they look like?
  Nondescript.

• What size is the ball? Like a marble, or a baseball, or a basketball, or something else?
  A bit larger than a softball.

• What about the table, what shape was it? What is it made of?
  It was a rectangular table. It shifted from being smooth and grey to a lightly finished maple, then back again.

• Important question:
  I didn’t really think about these details until asked.

My thoughts aren’t in a language, so this always confused me as a benchmark.

I live on the edge of a small town. Google numbers:

• To the nearest convenience store: 4.7km, 1hr 4min walk
• To the nearest chain supermarket: 21km, 4hr 38min walk
• To the nearest bus stop: 18km, 4hr 7min walk
• To the nearest park: 3.4km, 47 minute walk
• To the nearest library: 4.7km, 1hr 3min walk
• To the nearest train station: 20km, 4hr 31 minute walk

I’ll leave this here. Good resource for evaluating news sources as you come across them also.

I haven’t played it myself, but I understand there are mods to remove nudity at least, and I would expect the sexual violence as well. That would be a requirement for me to try it.

Fear and Hunger is a contender. If you aren’t aware, imagine a JRPG where you kill god at the end, but you don’t ever level up. Also the first enemy you fight is very likely to kill you, and has just as much of a chance of doing so on your 100th playthrough. Oh, and you start from the beginning every time you die.

Health, vision, and dental are all separate in the US.

We all have a visceral reaction to this because we’ve had an adjacent experience at some point. You know it’s true.

I think the point is that incentivizing people to have more sex isn’t the answer to a declining birth rate.

Effects and the cause?

If they could do this, it would be a good idea. It’s just not possible.

A while back some Texas lawmakers wanted to offer a reward for turning in women seeking out of state abortions. I think that’s what the commenter is referring to.
