I don't think he'll stumble over anything - if he gets a trifecta, he'll sign whatever the fuck is put in front of him, and this time he won't have establishment Republicans to keep him from completely going off the rails. Instead he'll have Elon in charge of budgeting, RFK Jr doing "medical" stuff, and Bannon pushing fucking insane shit.

The guard rails are down and we're flying off the cliff.

I would have thought there's some law against it, but they were up for over a month without any sign of coming down.

In Missouri opponents to Amendment 3 (which would add abortion rights to the constitution) are plastering billboards with bald faced lies like:

• It will prevent you from suing any doctors for malpractice
• It will give gender reassignment surgery to minors
• It will let children get said surgery without parental consent
• It will require tax payer funded gender reassignment surgery
• It will require tax payer funded abortions
• It will allow abortions for any reason up until the minute of birth (heavily implying it may go after birth)

None of those are in the actual amendment. None. Even the late term abortion shit is only carved out for life of the mother in the amendment.

You'll hear responses like general strikes or large scale protests. I'm cynical, but I have a hard time believing anything can be done aside from voting and hoping it works.

The US is too spread out, patches of humanity too separated to make a general strike work. (what are people in rural Montana going to think when their one grocery store clerk doesn't show up for work?)

Almost half of Americans actually want a coup so that the "right" people will be punished in a righteous fury - they don't give a shit about reality or democracy (or even the hope of democracy).

I'm so fed up and broken down by it all.

Not OP, but I think they're referring to this.

Don't you know? All those abortions you hear about are for evil hussies who can't stop getting with men.

But if I have complications, I get to still have a medical procedure to terminate my pregnancy, right?

It's even worse, because there's not even a blowjob here. Clinton ultimately got into trouble for lying about the affair - unless Biden is getting something on the side and plans on lying about it this impeachment is even more of a fishing expedition.

I started back up again with Lidarr + Plexamp, with the noted exception that I've actually tried to buy music from Bandcamp.

1. Not everything I want is available on the high seas
2. I'm at a place financially where I can drop $40 on something like Lagwagon's back catalog.

Honestly? It's way better than Spotify - the Plexamp DJs work really well, I can offline download albums for runs/work (where I'm in the basement and have zero cell coverage).

Love me some Atomic Robo. I've been a fan of Brian Clevinger since the days of 8-Bit Theater.

One of my biggest scores was an original inked comic page from Savage Sword of Doctor Dinosaur.

You say that, but I was dismayed that the whole tamagotchi aspect wasn't better implemented. Leveling up is somewhat hidden behind the various hardware capabilities, and there isn't much by way of actually interacting with the flipper 🐬.
