If the big bang had never occurred, queer.af would never have died.

Ergo: big bang killed queer.af.

QED

They almost certainly picked it just for the joke.

queer.af = Queer AF = Queer as fuck!

It’s like how popular the TLD of Guernsey (.gg) is with gaming websites.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t even realize what country code the TLD was when they registered it.

‘we should have separated the people into their own regions’

We should launch all the white supremacists to Mars and see how well they fare building their own civilization.

If you’re proud of limiting the genetic diversity in your lineage, you probably look as weird as some “purebred” dogs (i.e. inbred).

Dude might be the only person with teeth whom you could punch in the mouth and hit only gums.

If God wanted those kids fed, he’d have rained mana from the heavens, or multiplied bread and fish for them. If they are hungry, they clearly deserve it.

I’d argue that an unconstitutional law is itself illegal, and thus does not render an unconstitutional action legal. That said, I’m sure I’d lose any argument on the constitutionality of the war power granted by Congress to the President.

The truth is, our Constitution was written in a time when the world moved much more slowly. It’s unfortunately no longer practical to expect it to work in a world as fast paced as ours is today. We need a full rewrite, but I do not trust anyone to rewrite it.

I guess I meant that those standing authorizations should not exist, as they effectively abdicate a power the Constitution outlined for Congress, transferring it to the President. They erode the checks and balances.

While I agree, let’s not pretend that presidents haven’t been launching combat missions without formal declaration of war for decades. Longer than I’ve been alive. It’s one of the biggest expansions of executive power we have allowed, under the guise of “the war on terror”, “the cold war”, or even “the war on drugs”.

Yeah, that tracks.

Matches their smooth brains.

The leader of each house is Republican, and they control what comes up for a vote. He can encourage all he wants, he has no say in the matter.

I mean, what’s he supposed to do right now? Republicans still control both houses of congress (or, at least, hold enough seats to render both houses impotent). The upcoming congressional elections matter as much as (or potentially more than) the presidential election.

Two things.

One: even removing those listed senators from the supermajority, that still leaves a majority.

Two: their original comment lamented that the Democrats never even held a vote when they had control with the intent of putting their votes on the record, so that voters would know who actually supports their rights.

Well that is scary.

“All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.”

I used to imagine, “What would a new constitution look like if we actually invoked the clause to hold another constitutional convention?”

But imagine if we voted to hold one now, when billionaires hold so much power already. I all but guarantee that they’d make sure they had control over a majority of the delegates, and we’d end up with something that was somehow even worse than what we have today.

Bump all punishments up by a tier for elected officials.

Capital offense is still a capital offense.

Life in prison becomes a capital offense.

Long prison becomes life in prison.

Short prison becomes long prison.

Large fine becomes short prison.

Small fine becomes large fine.

I also think we should make a law that says any elected official making a public statement is assumed to be under oath to tell the truth, and provably false statements made by public officials in an official capacity should be punished as harshly as perjury in court.

That’s the great thing about lifetime appointments: they don’t have to care about their opponents at all (up until the point of violence).

To save others a click:

5 appointed by George W Bush (including the chief), 4 by Donald Trump, 1 by George H W Bush, and 1 by Barack Obama.

GOP has been losing popular opinion for years, but they’ve been stacking the courts every chance they get, and now they are reaping their rewards. Fascism by judicial capture.
