As long as it's just a fine, it's just the cost of doing business. Start putting executives in jail.

That's the price of the game itself but by the costumes and many leaders it looks like they're wanting to do actual micro transactions.

But it also looks like they're trying to micro-transaction the fuck out of it.

I wish I could be as pleased with it. I don't want to pay for a service and have that service still collect data on me to push ads elsewhere.

It's also because they can't run headline after headline with "Trump lied" and expect to get clicks. News has become an engagement farm where in the past newspapers and other media were less, well, engaging.

As is tradition. Punishment for crime in the US is for the poor. You can bet if I took that many boxes of documents and even classified materials home I'd be in prison within the year.

This is why I think the people modding cars to be evs are so much better.

They shift sequentially though via the paddles on the wheel.

It's one thing to say what you stand for, it's another thing entirely to say you will make something happen. This is what makes people apathetic in voting because it feels like they make promises they have no intention on keeping. Harris supports codifying abortion and I'm all fucking here for it but she has no power to get that through congress, only to talk it up and not veto it.

While that is true, it's also not true. There are more times a president has communicated a plan with guidance and it never went anywhere.

Biden promised minimum wage increases and student loan forgiveness. Neither have happened and not because he hasn't tried but because he is relatively powerless to actually make that happen.

I don't understand why presidential candidates love talking about things that would take an act of congress. Unless congress gets filled with more progressives, this isn't going to happen, even other Dems will oppose it.

It's really pathetic how many of them lack any critical thinking skills. They're so enfranchised by the whole thing that they would rather lose friends and family over admitting a pedophile isn't fit to lead.
