Total asceticism isn't sustainable. Indulge in things that bring you joy, and recognize that over-indulgence cheapens the experience and has other drawbacks. Find the balance that works for you, otherwise you're just sacrificing mental health for physical.

I feel like they're not very comparable. Production really screwed over Halo in a way that never could have happened to Fallout because of how protective of the IP Todd Howard was. Only time will tell if the same issues plague Mass Effect as did Halo.

There was a political realignment after the civil war where the democrat and the republicans switched roles.

Now there's a factual realignment, where reality and satire switch which one is absurd and which one is correct when taken at face value

Too complicated for 90% of voters to comprehend.

They saw: Democrat president made my groceries more expensive

They heard: Democrat replacement will do things around the same as they used to be. Republican guy is going to do things VERY differently.

And the herd mentality took over past that point

And the slim but heavily armed majority of this country will definitely see that as legally justified self defense and have no choice but to accept it peacefully! Right?

I don't thinks that's what the flavor "Rocky Road' means

I guess the USSR and USA had mutually assured destruction by means other than nuclear

The decising factor in most elections is how expensive things feel. Now, the president can't do a whole lot to make things cost less. But they have a hell of a lot of power to make things cost more. So the BEST we can hope for is a president who slows down how fast things are getting more expensive. But when we're spending, we don't feel the current inflation rate, we feel the cumulative effect of inflation for the past few years.

I wish I had been aborted. This place is a shithole and has since before I arrived.

Your wording is more confusing to me

Any state could change colors at any time. It's just that the overwhelming majority of the population in most states will not listen to any amount of evidence that shows what the consequences of their choice will be. They stick to their tribe. End of discussion. So only in the states where the two tribes are roughly equal in size will we see any excitement in the election
