Being in the lower tier of a hive city still requires you to be a badass though. They are what Nextdoor boomers think big cities are like, but on steroids.

That is exactly why in Fantasy, they say "There are exactly as many Elves as the story needs".

(Even that doesn't justify though, the elves apparently being in such a population crisis that the death of even one elf is enough to be considered a tragedy for the race, yet hundreds of elves regularly die in battle, and every year, the Dark Elves celebrate Murder Christmas.)

Who even WOULD they be in the Imperium? They're not strong enough to be Space Marines or Imperial Guard, or even Inquisition, not smart enough to be Mechanicus, not disciplined enough to be Administratum or in a Forge World, not charismatic enough to be in a Pleasure World, and they would almost certainly not be Psykers, so they couldn't even be fed to the Golden Throne.

Where does that leave them? Cannon fodder? Human test subjects?

It did seem like Harris was going to win early on in her campaign, around when she picked Tim Walz and seemed like she was trying to make a leftward turn.

EU is going to ban Twitter. Twitter having much fewer revenue streams will require US government subsidies to stay up. And Trump would totally do that.

As CTH said, she really was the embodiment of the Democratic Party. She wasn't beloved for striking down any injust law, or furthering human rights. It was for her dissents. In other words, she lost but she seemed so stylish and cool when she lost.

My parents are technically boomers, even though they were born in 1962 and 1963, a bit far after the war to be part of a post-war baby boom.

Now his conclusion will be "we need to remove the far left because they make us lose".

All Kamala had to do was lie and claim to be SO PROGRESSIVE. Obama did that and he landslided both times.

Oh shit, China might know that I eat way too many tendies.

 

I wish someone would text me 20 times a day to remind me what's going on today.

This should've been the easiest election ever. For both sides.

Under communism, video games would have gameplay innovations you never would've thought possible, so much creativity, they'd be seen as among the greatest works of art, multi-player and singleplayer so fun that will never get old, and the graphics of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

 

This will be the Democrats' strategy to avoid another Bernie being in the primaries.

 

Why would they stop? That's been the most effective attack they've had in a long time! Especially because it's true, and I think the Republicans know it on some level.

 
 

For me, it's social dancing, specifically West Coast Swing. Because while there is just social dancing, and some who only do it, there's a bit of a culture of competition, and it has its own governing body for determining where you place in competitions, and when it does sound like a cult when described.

 
 

Like, I still have termination anxiety. When there's nothing obvious to do at work, I get really anxious, like there's something I'm forgetting to do.

What should be relaxing is a source of dread.
