The sub-flavors are important. Jainism, Wicca, Asatru, Evangelical, Catholic, etc… all have different world views, expectations etc… some are fairly benign, others are not.

why is there no one with the authority to deem him unfit to govern, and demand that he step down under duress of consequences?

There is, it’s called impeachment followed by a vote to remove. That vote can’t pass without Republicans joining in, and they likely won’t.

Look, it’s not simple. Armed rebellion is not a good time. If that course is taken it’s critical to first understand where the states fall. Since each has it’s own military, among other things, no tactical decisions can be made until those lines are drawn, or fragmented accordingly.

It’s kinda the equivalent of asking why the Italians aren’t doing a revolution because the EU decided to ban Pasta. Like sure they did that, it’s not good, but like what happens if Germany doesn’t participate and Ireland sides with Italy?

Under 6’4" DNI /S

But for real a lot of Tinder bios and stuff have a 6’ minimum stated. While 6’+ people aren’t rare exactly, I’ve known many women and men who hover around that mark or exceed it, it does exclude a large segment of the population.

I think a large part of it is that women generally want a partner taller than them. Guys also seem to generally want a partner shorter than them. And a lot of people will just ignore others until someone checks all the boxes instead of taking a chance. This in turn tends to fuel the loneliness epidemic and can’t be good for self image.

I know, which is why the packages are being denied. The packages won’t be approved because they don’t meet standards. It’s bullshit because the standards changed under them, I was in a similar boat when I was in. But that’s how the system works

Early retirement is a privilege not a right. At least that’s how it works in the Military.

You can disregard unlawful orders, in fact it’s expected of service members to do so. But the reality is they are just worried about bills like everyone else so they will fall in line since doing the right thing is hard.

I wouldn’t view it as appropriation. Do what you want

I mean, I know a few people who don’t vote since from their perspective it makes no real difference who wins nationally, besides their vote would be insignificant, and locally just don’t care so long as everything still works. And another who just has honey badger levels of IDGAF, like just ate a cabbage like an apple because he wondered what it was like. That kinda extends to everything peak zero fucks what happens happens. I don’t think either of them are wrong exactly, they have no real pride in not voting just no skin in the game. I think that’s true of most non-voters. Never met a proud non-voter. The closest would be a votes only for third parties on principle that the two party system is broken. Which at that point is still voting so idk

You can hook a smart card up to a phone, might need an adapter but it works on Android

More or less if you dog deeper into the study instead of just reading the easy article they are an antecedent to modern whales.

The Western slope has been under drought conditions my entire life growing up there, it’s been decades.

What does that have to do with a pelvis? It might have some value now or maybe not, just like our vestigial tailbones which have no real use. The question here is did whales ever in the past have legs? The answer is yes: https://www.npr.org/2021/08/27/1031659020/four-legged-whale-legs-discovered-43-million-years

They have a pelvis, a rather odd feature if there were never legs

Peanut butter my old friend I’ve come to talk with you again A vision softly creeping…

Monero is specifically designed to be resistant to GPU mining, and has a set inflation rate of ~2% with no cap. In other words it effectively is governed nearly identically to normal currency and anyone can participate reasonably.

Additionally, while the value has gone up, that’s primarily thanks to it being used as a currency. It’s the preferred crypto for black markets.

Unlike Bitcoin it processes transactions quickly and with low fees. There is no way to know who sent what amount to whom or how much anyone has of it. It is the closest thing there is to digital cash.

The “nobody knows who they are” is in reference to the general public. That makes it hard to communicate why that group runs counter to US interests.

Oh for sure, it’s incredibly frustrating, even more so since realistically no one is really fighting for poly marriage recognition outside a couple east coast towns. That’s great and all, but isn’t perfect by a long shot. I’ve toyed with reporting myself for polygamy (well technically it would be bigamy stauetorally) and trying to get it overturned that way, though looking through case law and the like I don’t really see a way that would work. And there aren’t enough of us to really easily get it on the ballot I don’t think.

Why would marriage be an issue? It’s convenient for purposes of healthcare coverage, hospital visitation rights, guarantees that without a will stating otherwise your spouse makes all decisions regarding the disposal of your corpse, and they automatically inherit any wealth you have, and if you have military benefits in many cases marriage is required to transfer those, or have them automatically transfer on death.

I’m not monogamous, neither is my spouse, but we are married because of all the above reasons. Marriage isn’t about love and monogamy it’s about financial and death planning
