I’m far from an expert on the topic, I believe things like unused tissue (IE also things like amputated limbs, bad organs etc…) is more or less cremated.

from my understanding it’s usually donated to medical research, but due to some anti-abortion rhetoric falsely producing fake stories of them being sold, it’s otherwise discarded as medical waste.

I think he’s meaning, they are hoping to start ww3 and destroy Europe before we collapse.

I kind of half get the concept, they don’t want the precident to be say… if you are afraid of losing the election to an incumbent, send the FBI to raid their house. Publicly announce you are looking for child pornography and claim you’ll announce the results after the election.

Something that whether trump runs again or not, and if there’s another election is almost certainly going to happen (to protect the election for whoever is going to protect trump from his crimes after his presidency, whether that’s trump, vance, one of his kids or whatever).

Same time there was fricking obvious cases here. It’s not like fishing expeditions like trumps launching at his political opponents right now. and to top it off it doesn’t even matter again because moderates are so worried about setting a precident that the other side can use to justify their horrific actions, without realizing that the extremists, don’t give any fucks about precident. They’ll cite it when they have it, but if they don’t have it they will just steamroll ahead anyway.

I mean where is it Cynical at this point… right now there’s the massive redistricting that’s going to give the republicans more house seats even if they get less votes. Trumps been “joking” about a 3rd term from the start. Millitary is literally marching on the streets.

The point isn’t that we need to give up… but we need to realize they are re-writing the rules… Big thing is… just let them have their fun and when it kills them in the next election stance that the democrats took last time, is going to destroy us. We need to look at every possible way to fight back NOW, and have contingencies for when all of our existing failsafes… fail.

Based on time of the anime’s development, and of course the fact that it is japanese, more likely IGS was the thought process at that time. KGS was the standard in america… but not the primary choice for China/Japan.

You’ve been subscribed to cat facts!

Yup… bottom line reading something critically, expecting it to be what everyone told you it was… and paying attention to discover it as the opposite.

In some cases something you thought was profound, turns out to be bullshit, fluff or just horrific.

Or in other cases something you thought was nonsense… turns out to be right about everything, down to it’s predictions of the horrible directions capitalism/imperealism would lead to, looking around and going, shit he predicted it almost perfectly.

Ironically the opposite also can happen. I became an atheist by buckling down and reading the bible to shore up my faith to prepare for a morality disagreement with my parents…

Only made it to god giving permissions to have slaves in exodus when I stopped and asked myself… wait I’m looking to this guy for my ideal morals?

I mean yeah I can agree with the gist of it… not really sure they tier them out quite like we have. (Why I think many found it kind of silly to have say, hawkeye and black widow in the original avengers). superheros generally are just set to be a match for… their respective villains.

Obviously the super hero universe thing people have to close their eyes on is the concept of the over the top OP heros nearby are generally equipped well enough that they could usually overcome all the “street level” villains over a lunch break.

To my knowledge that’s kind of it with Luke Cage though is more… he doesn’t have any major mobility or solving advantages. So effectively the way villains need to work around him is… don’t get close.

I mean very different league, but there are studies reports noting some extreme irregularities in several key cities. IE juristictions where hundreds voted for the democratic senator, but zero votes for harris etc…

but yes obviously the key huge thing to point out is democratic represenatives and candidates. aren’t loudly screaming those on the news and twixxer etc… to encourage mass civil unrest

IMO it’s so fricking obvious.

Moderation advantage works, in a world where most people are happy with the way things are. The problem is these elites pushing it are either in a bubble where everyone they know is doing well… or they are outright lying because they are also doing well, and only care about things not changing for them.

Reality is, 90% of the country knows, things aren’t fucking working as they are. They are struggling for the bare minimum needed to survive, they know something is wrong, and needs to be massively changed.

When you know everything is completely broken, and one candidate is saying “things are almost perfect, lets keep this amazing country headed the way it is”, and the other is saying “everything is wrong, I’ll make major changes”.

Analogy I use is, the titanic is headed for an iceberg. Passengers see it and are begining to sweat.

Now we have 2 captains, one that says “everythings great, we just stay as where we are, there’s no reason to worry”. Captain 2 says “That iceberg up ahead is going to destroy us… we need to pick up a ton of speed and ram it with enough force that it breaks”.

It’s a bad idea… but at least it’s not ignoring the problem. So with only those 2 options, the second sounds less crazy. The solution doesn’t comport with reality, but aknowledging that there is a real problem, is a huge advantage to someone undermining it and telling you “no really look everything is great”.

They were planning before the election even happened!

Seconded I would 100% say, very few claims that “nobody ever wants” have any chance of being true, you could say most, you could even say “almost nobody”. But give me enough time and a large enough set of people, I’ll find someone who actually wants to have their head put on a pike.

They love to leave out the comical level of fraud the guy committed, he wasn’t sent to prison for being a rogue lol.

That would be like “John Wayne Gacy was a bit of a clown… but most clowns aren’t forced to serve life sentences”.

Bottom line it’s a message to your voters. obviously if you don’t play ball they will cut that funding out next cycle… but just imagine in a hypothetical world with voters that actually do bare minimum research. They see you are taking AIPAC money, they use that information to decide whether or not to vote for you.

Of course the reality is the average voter isn’t educated, won’t take the time to look up who is funding their candidate, in which case the only way to publicly announce to your voters that you aren’t beholden to a group, is to publicly reject the money and issue a press release, like this one we are looking at right now.

I mean he spends every day supporting a man who in his own words is “America’s Hitler”. Somehow I don’t feel he changed his mind on that topic… just at the time people didn’t realize that was a compliment from him.

Hassan? pretty underwhelming, in short, dog is walking around on this treadmill kind of thing, looks to me almost obvious that his dew claw got snagged on it and he yelps, roughly at the same time hassan’s hand is out of frame for a few seconds (that some are claiming he is pushing a shock remote).

oh and someone found a 2 year old clip of him saying that his friend gave him a shock collar that is laying around his house but he’d never use.

I don’t get it, we’ve kept peoples pay the same if not lowered it, allowed housing prices and rent to go through the roof, mandated everyone to go into massive debt to get a school degree, and then told them they are struggling because we told them the problem is they are throwing away all their money on luxuries.

Now they are cutting down on luxuries… (shocked pikachu face).

Agreed, she’s batshit crazy… but I have to say crazy and stupid, is actually an improvement from the normal of morally bankrupt.
