Extreme politicians having more leverage, in situations where the lead of the majoritiy party is very thin, is actually very common in most democracies.
The specific stupidity of the American democracy is the „winner takes it all“ rule which leads to a two party system.
What you don’t get is:
Given the same conditions, some people have more obstacles put in their way than others.
Saying „I can look after myself“ from a position of privilege is easy.
But taking care of yourself AND removing the obstacles for others so they have the same chance to succeed like you is hard.
And yes: it can make you miserable. Especially when egoistic people keep adding those obstacles again.
Let me summerize your answer:
„Fuck anyone but me.“
Congratz, you’re the perfect example of a centrist 👍
Leftist: „I‘m miserable, because minorities are treated like shit, we still don’t have universal healthcare and we are at the brink of a fascist takeover.“
MAGA: „I‘m miserable because queer people exist, black people exist, literally anyone that is different from me exists.“
You (very intelligent): I can’t see any difference between you two.
Another day on the internet where I as a European am horrified what Americans put up with. Here in germany teaching is one of the best paid profession and of course they get paid during holidays.
In Finland even more so: the social status of teachers there is higher than doctors and lawyers. And they are constantly topping international comparisons of education systems.
How did you guys not start a revolution yet?!!?
Hostile Creatures? Fireball! Locked Door? Fireball! Failed speech check? Fireball! Queue in front of smithy too long? Fireball!
It’s a scientific fact, that light inside your car will impair your vision, when it’s dark outside, even if you feel it doesn’t.
Look outside your window in your room at night and then shut off your lights.
It’s a stark contrast.
Yes, that package manager will surely be the best one and not just be another one in the zoo.
Im Bereich Software Entwicklung ist Heise sehr gut.
Zum Thema Software Architektur schreiben und podcasten da z.B. einige der besten aus der deutschen Szene: Eberhard Wolff, Carola Lilienthal, Gernot Starke uvm.
Da sind die richtig gut aufgestellt.
Singularity - the last good Raven Software game.
It’s like a playable B-Movie: awesome!
Some basic punctuation would also work wonders:
Accuser, who previously claimed former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo groped them, filing lawsuit.
Why did Cuomo grope a filing lawsuit? That title sounds like a Chuck Tingle book.
Yeah, but it doesn’t work for the party chest, where most of the equipment is stored, because it’s heavy and clutters the inventories.
It’s hilariously bad…
I almost gave up because of the atrocious inventory management. I lost many items because of it. Or maybe I didn’t. I don’t know because everything is all over place.
Most of those „rip offs“ are just pretty basic chord progressions that are quite common.
The rest i would maybe call „inspired by“ instead of rip offs.
Nirvanas songs are often simple and repetitive (not a bad thing!) and that leads to many possibilities for finding parts of songs from other bands that sound similar.
Their texts however struck a nerve during their time. That’s why they became a phenomenon.
For All Mankind, Severance, Silo, Slow Horses, Foundation, Pachinko (my personal favourite), I could go on.
Apple TV+ may not have many shows. But their quality ratio is unmatched.
And Ted Lasso got boring after the first season 🤷♂️
It’s a fan remake that will unfortunately likely be shut down by Capcom.
