I mean I get it, but Biden promised a one term deal for democrats. And it would be a hell of a comfort to see someone young enough to still have the mental flexibility to understand how new situations call for new solutions.

100mhz ultrawide LG at 1080x2560. It's not always at ultra for everything. But it still crunches polygons.

Own one and I keep trying to justify the upgrade but without ray tracing it can still crank out a lot of games on ultra. And quite realistically ray tracing quality in games hasn't justified the cost.

It was in large part because he thought woke Twitter turned his daughter transgender. It was always personal and petty with him. That and the Saudis wanted to put their money behind his takeover because Twitter was seen to have played a crucial organizing role in the Arab spring uprising.

Nah it's pretty scientifically accurate and discluding trans people from the idea of being normal people is insulting.

And the discrimination that I face as a trans person is very different from the discrimination that a person of color feels in this country. The remedies aren't the same, and umbrella terming discrimination just sweeps it under the rug and fails to provide a tangible set of goals to fix.

Fixing discrimination globally all at once is impossible. It creates apathy and makes us all bystanders to the problems. Legally ensuring that the nurse or teacher doesn't misgender me is a very fixable and tangible thing that is very easy and clear cut.

It's not even originally in the Bible's earliest translations to prohibit gay sex, originally it just condemned pedophilic sex and attraction and it was changed to target gay people instead of the church's own clergy.

I still pass a place in California where they have a bunch stashed. I don't think they are selling well either.

They're gonna happen eventually if nothing improves. There's a breaking point to this all that we are on a collision course with.

They wouldnt be trying to throw trans people, women's rights, immigrants etc. under the bus so hard if they weren't desperate for the distraction. Genocide is the last gasp of empires as they fail. And we will fall if trump wins or further damages democracy.
