I don’t understand what the calculation was here. People were hurting, but a whole lot more people are going to hurt without health insurance come next year. They got:

• a vote on healthcare extension in December: almost certain to fail and even if succeeding, open enrollment ends 12/15. So you’d potentially be making people gamble thousands of dollars per month that this unlikely vote succeeds and effects them immediately
• written into the law that federal employees get back pay - which is already federal law
• reverses lay offs that occurred during the shut down - which were illegal
• it only funds the government through January. So we’re going to be right back in this situation. And then what - we tell these poor SNAP recipients, “oh sorry, we’re going to need you to go though this whole thing again because we wanted to make sure people could fly home for thanksgiving.”

Hard to imagine a moderate winning a national primary after this. And what the hell is the republican answer for why it was so important that people not get slightly more affordable healthcare that it was worth starving people.

I hope that at the least, the re-establishment of SNAP will be quick.

What would you have them do? Launch a coup? It’s a challenging position for them to be in

If you’re on an apple device you can have it take up the whole screen. Go to settings> install app and it will walk you through it

I guess my thought is that should wait until actually ordered to do commit violence. Coups are very, very damaging to democracies and often beget more coups. It should only really be a last resort if civil mechanisms completely fail.

I do understand the wish that someone could just easily removal him from power though. The man is unhinged.

Wow so they can’t even at least posture that they would refuse to vote to keep the government open if they don’t agree to continue to the subsidies…

Do you have a reference for the Saturday night thing? Or are you referring to the Supreme Court’s order? I couldn’t find anything about Congress unless I misunderstood

They do in person support groups, phone calls, and all sorts of stuff

I think it depends on what you’re using it for. If you’re going to a big party I think a better optimized avatar is kinda respectful to the people around you (plus higher likelihood that other people will actually see you). If it’s just you and a few people hanging out though, doesn’t typically matter

Surely they know that’s not true though (even if they won’t admit it publicly). I just don’t see what the real human rational is. Cut money so you can give more tax breaks to the wealthy? Like how can someone be so callous. How do you justify that to yourself?

Great first episode! They did a good job of showing him work though his loss. I wonder how long he’ll hang out with this party for

Is this a new game or a new dlc?

Anyone played any of these games? Are they worth it?

Definitely understand the frustration, but I’m not sure we should be wishing war on anyone.

Not to mention I can’t imagine a war between the three largest nuclear powers going well for the world…

I ride a tern and they’re pretty amazing. I’d probably start with a quick haul but could swap to a GSD later down the line as the kids got older.

Thank you everyone for your recommendations!

I like the art on this poster! Any ideas if it will be good?

These are all romance/romcom if you’re looking for something a little different

Insomniacs after school - romance from last season

Kaguya as others mentioned

Wotakoi: love is hard for an otaku - one of my favorites and I’m surprised it hasn’t been mentioned yet. I feel like it’s one of the rare romance anime’s that focus on working (post college) people

Horimiya - plus bonus season is airing now

Irina the vampire cosmonaut: romance is more of a secondary genre for this, but still really good. The OP has a really relaxing vibe too

ReLife - classic, but for a reason. What if you could go back and redo high school.

Any that you recommend? I’m with you that some of the less desirable tropes can really put a tamper on some good shows. Sorry there’s no isekai, I feel like a lot of them tend to have at least some fan service

How do the new spirits/mechanics compare to the previous expansions? I love spirit island so I’m so tempted to get this even though I probably don’t play it regularly enough to justify it

Hey no spoilers!

I’m interested in FF7 remake! Thanks for the contest!
