What is this obsession with cheating at debates? What advantage does Pat Cross think that would give? The campaigns know what the questions are in advance because they read the news. If you've ever seen a presidential debate, you know that the specific phrasing a question is completely irrelevant because the candidate has prepared and memorized a statement on the X most pressing issues of the moment, and come hell or high water they are going to deliver each of those statements. It's not loving Whose Line

Trust me, lapsed Catholic world (very very similar to secular Jew world) is a funny place where you simultaneously... 1. Bitch about the religion, it's creepy hosed aspects, and what you had to do growing up. 2. Defend it like gently caress against the WASPs when they amble over to take potshots, and/or claim it as their own. I'm mostly describing my dad. But I grew up in a Unitarian Universalist "church" in the NYC area. Which was basically wall to wall lapsed Catholics and secular Jews, and one could scarcely tell where one ended and the other began. Grape fucked around with this message at 17:22 on Aug 10, 2020 |

Oh, I didn't know Sid Meier had a statue he probably still deserved to be taken down for the way that the treatment of American natives and, uh, indentured servants were brushed under the rug in Sid Meier's Colonization, but Civilization is a good game series

Chuds fuckin' love the debate format, man. It lets them play out the fantasy where not only are your lovely bigoted opinions respected by default, but if you are strong enough in the Battle of Minds, you can convince entire rooms that they are correct, and leave your opponent sniveling and humiliated. It's their version of liberals who are obsessed with the West Wing; they view debates as moral smackdowns where the conservative opinion is obviously the correct one. They've developed this obsession to the point where if a liberal does well in a debate, it's OBVIOUSLY because they cheated, because their opinions are degenerate and they're big dumb stupid idiots.

It's also the first thing I think of when I think of octopuses That's because people don't know enough about octopuses and how they are total masters of disguise with many species capable of mimicking not only the color, but also the texture of the what's around them including the movement of currents and light through the water. Chameleons don't even change color to blend in with their environment.

How old, conservatives, do you think Trump is going to be in four years? If being that old is disqualifying for a President, why are you supporting him now? Much though I hate to be fair towards conservatives, Trump (if re-elected) would be within a year of leaving the White House at the age at which Biden would be entering for the first time. Really, they're both too old - Trump was older than Reagan, and Reagan was falling apart during his second term - but the Boomers just are not going to let go of the reins until they're all in a box.

Republicans and a shocking number of others still believe that older just means smarter despite evidence that's almost completely contradictory. Though that doesn't stop them from using disingenuous arguments about age because nothing will ever stop that and it's literally keeping the party afloat.

They mostly change colour to help regulate their body temperature and as communication. I'm here for replacing "chameleon" with "octopus" in this context, as octopuses do actually do this thing and they're very good at it. It's a lovely cartoon in all other ways, but I'll stand by this word choice.

In the DC area, the debate over the name has been going on for decades, hitting new highs just a few years ago when the owner swore he would never change the name, and the Washington Post changed it's editorial style to never refer to the team by their name (granted, on the Sports page they still called it that so it was largely symbolic), so I can't help but see the "as soon as you feel threatened" part to be coming from the perspective of someone who doesn't really know the issue and views this as a knee-jerk PC response from Dan Snyder. It was honestly a pleasant surprise to me when they said they were finally changing it, and I have little doubt that FedEx threatening to sever the relationship with the team heavily influenced the decision, seeing as how it came right after that. Edit regarding Cool Animal Chat: In my opinion, Fishman should have used Cuttlefish.

I dunno why all these motherfuckers have forgotten that rhetoric and sophistry exist, making it very easy to both argue compellingly for complete shite, and win the stupid games that are formalised debates. I guess that's why there obsessed with 30 year old media professionals """destroying""" nervous looking left wing teenagers; you can pretty much justify anything from that angle.

While we're on Cool Animal Chat: Octopuses are extremely intelligent predators who have a variety of attack and defense strategies. It would be an unironically good name for a sports team if it weren't for the faux pedants who think it should be "Octopi" or the slightly more correct ones who think it should be "Octopodes". (It's "Octopuses" in English. )

AOC is herself a Catholic. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-faith_n_5e580e16c5b6450a30bbd0f7 AOC posted:She said it strikes her that “if Christ himself walked through these doors and said what he said thousands of years ago ― that we should love our neighbor and our enemy, that we should welcome the stranger, fight for the least of us, that it is easier ... for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get into a kingdom of heaven ― he would be maligned as a radical and rejected from these doors.”
