Yes, and there's precedent that he can still run even if he's imprisoned.

Debs ran for president in the 1920 election while imprisoned in the Atlanta Federal Penitentiary.

Interesting read.

Even without the saltwater problem, drinking from the end of the Ganges sounds pretty bad considering how polluted that river is.

I have a hard time understanding the mentality of people having kids while complaining, there's not enough fresh water.

I suppose it's good that most of the local water supply here in ca comes from mountain snowpack melts.

That's entirely subjective and up to you, however, I feel like I should point out we're dealing with our own erosion of democracy issues in the United States as well.

Oh did you receive $30 million from him too? 🙄

Sadly, it's a worse echo chamber. In my experience mods are far more likely to wield power like little dictators and ban for good faith dissent, as there's no governing body above them to prevent this. I've been banned for being pro-Israel by several such petty tyrants.

Upvotes and downvotes are generally per-server though. It's interesting to see how posts and submissions are regarded on other instances.

To a certain degree, as they mentioned in the article regarding the casimir effect. While one cannot keep out the quantum foam entirely, it can be restricted to specific wavelengths by altering the volume of the space.

“Trump Bad” as a campaign strategy is losing Democrats this election.

What an odd take, considering every election is about candidates proving to the public that they are better than their opponent for the job.

Trump led an insurrection against the United States of America. Maybe return to that.

Isn't that also, "Trump bad?"

Lol what a tale! It's cool to hear the story behind the meme, thanks for sharing it.

I keep thinking it would be funny to make a throwaway D&D Character, perhaps an NPC, named Emma Gerd who talks this way.

Bravo. You took the unique thing about the setting and character and made it into unique gameplay elements that fit the theme and sounds like fun. Superman's dilemma is not being able to stop everything despite his power and the rules of the game tell that story. I think you'd be a good game designer if you aren't already. The only thing I can think to add is maybe Kryptonite makes him have a health bar and diminished powers for a while, so he has to turn from the cat into the mouse for a little while until it wears off, kind of like stars in GTA.

What Wario game are you referring to? I haven't owned a Nintendo system in a long time.

 

Israel’s Cabinet has approved a cease-fire deal with the Hamas militant group that would bring a temporary halt to a devastating war now in its seventh week. The Israeli government said that under the deal, Hamas is to free at least 50 of the roughly 240 hostages it is holding in the Gaza Strip over a four-day period.
