Is this response still in review?

While the comment that you are replying to does lack nuance, the intent is clear. There is obviously a difference between murder and self defense.

I didn't say that EVERYTHING was well thought out. I also said that it makes no sense. But I do think that a lot (ie not all) of it was well thought out. Things like what you're talking about are I would say extremely minor nitpicks in terms of the overarching plot and character motivations and that type of thing. Also, I find it hilarious that you say Big Boss since he was never pregnant as far as I'm aware lmao

The MGS games make no sense in the ways that you've already pointed out, but at the same time there is a lot of very well thought out plot that does make sense in the context of the universe that he's built.

In short, lmao it makes no sense and it's one of my favorite series.

The difference is that being the nominee and potentially being elected again would entail 4 more years of being the president. It is possible to believe that Biden is currently capable enough to finish out this term while also believing that he is showing signs which indicate he might not be fit for another 4 years.

Even within those services you could also just have an actual library that functions the same way as an iPod. You can create playlists or just play your entire library if that's what you want. There is no need to interact with any algorithm in order to use these services.

Taking away protections for people wanting to join/form unions may make it harder to make that decision, and we should fight against those trying to remove those protections, but let's not forget that they can't take away the power that a unified workforce has. If every worker at Amazon decided that they were all going to stop doing their jobs at the same time and demand better working conditions it doesn't matter what Congress says, it's a matter of business for Amazon. Even if Amazon technically has the right to fire everyone because of the shitheads in Congress taking away all protection for unions, it is simply not a wise financial decision to try to rehire an entire workforce and train them all at the same time without anyone left to do the training, all while not making any money during this time and making their customers mad. It is much easier to just give some concessions and improve the working conditions to get their current workforce to come back. Of course this is an extreme example but it doesn't take literally the entire workforce doing this to functionally cripple a company. And of course the demands can't be so unreasonable that the company is unable to provide them. But this IS possible to achieve in reality. It takes a large group of people working together for the benefit of everyone but it is absolutely possible, even without protections which didn't always exist by the way. So even if those protections go away temporarily, don't give up on the idea of unions. That is what they really want. Fight for fair working conditions. And fight to elect politicians who will put in place/keep protections for unions. Don't give up because that's the only way that they win. Even a king has no power if his subjects refuse to kneel.

I recently got two of those exact same USPS ones which I reported as spam and blocked. They must have a really large operation.

Here is the first article for the local news in the Richmond, VA area currently. Notice that they start by listing the county as "Hanover County, VA"

It really isn't that hard nor is it an inconvenience for the readers.

Being hyper local how is any reader outside of Contra Costa supposed to know what state the county is in? Or even that it's a county for that matter. It isn't difficult to write the word California literally one time anywhere.

Richmond, California. It really should have been somewhere in the article.

Obviously we still have political protesters and things like that but nowadays things are so divided politically that it is typically a topic that you would avoid in everyday conversation. If you were to bring up anything political with your coworker at a get together after hours for example and you find that you are on opposite ends of the political spectrum it could make it very difficult to work together at best and potentially endanger you at worst.
