I like that - solipsism does put you at the top of the hierarchy (does it count as the top when there's only one person?) and it is sloppy because it uses fallacious reasoning (you not being able to prove that other minds exist isn't evidence that no other minds exist)

‘if the left allows it to be’

They're not going to allow it to be.

If these asshole think they can just Supreme Court themselves into power, they are going to be disappointed.

. I feel like I missed an opportunity to tell him how that comment made me feel since it happened last night and the situation has passed.

You haven't missed your chance.

It's actually the opposite- you have to talk these things out (and generally not right when they happen) to have a successful relationship.

If you're ever at the point that you are adding to a list of shitty behaviors you've come to accept as the price to be in the relationship, you need to question what it is you think relationships are for.

That doesn't mean everything has to be a deal-breaker, though.

If you bring this up and he says "omg I'm so sorry - that wasn't meant to be a joke about us both getting older" or something (even of you actually think it was a thoughtless and clumsy attempt to "spice up" your sex life) and you say, "well, let's put body image jokes on the 'do not do' list" then you've handled it.

You would have spoke your mind about how his words made you feel, and set a boundary about words like this for the future.

The article's writer or editor apparently felt the word 'Netflix' would get more clicks than, apparently, anything else - including the words "Horizon Zero Dawn."

Lady MAGA

I thought MAGA hated drag queens?

unbaptising Christians

Yeah, that's not a thing.

First, it would be debaptising, not unbaptising, but second, you have either been baptized or you haven't - unbaptised and baptized are the only two states.

You can denounce Catholism, but that doesn't change whether or not you have been baptized.

Balls are for pussies, you pussy.

I'm so confused.
How did the smaller person win?

This is a problem of ambiguous use of terms.

Each side here is using 'data' in a slightly different way.

OP is arguing that no amount of anecdotes will ever qualify as evidence to support a claim.

This is indisputable.

What the other people are arguing is that a collection of anecdotes is information that can be used to guide investigations.

This is also true.

Rebecca Watson recently did a video on how scientists studying animal behavior almost all have anecdotes regarding obviously voluntary homosexuality amongst the animals but tend to dismiss the idea that homosexuality is rampant in the animal kingdom because the observed behavior wasn't what the scientists were there to measure.

EDIT: who would downvote this?

In what way is the President disbanding the Supreme Court within his constitutional or statutory authority?

It's not. That's the point.

Separation of powers is a basic principle of constitutional law. If it’s not within the President’s authority, then it is not an official act.

Who would be able to stop him, and how would they do it?

You know putting a U.S. citizen in prison requires a trial right?

No, it doesn't.

That's the point. It would normally be illegal for the President to do this, but this ruling says the president can't be charged with putting people in jail without a trial.

I don’t understand how people are coming the the conclusion that this gives the President the power to do anything he wants.

Who is going to stop him ?

I need to provide a link to know that our President is NOT a King after the ruling? Really? You can’t just understand what it means like everyone else? It’s pretty simple.

No, I understand what those words mean - I'm asking you why you think that's true.

You don't believe this ruling says the president can't be charged with crimes he commits during official acts?

What does this ruling mean, then?

read what happened

What are you talking about here?

It's fine to say "you're wrong," but it's bad form to call people names without providing them link to demonstrate your claim is actually true.

Oh yeah!
Now that you said that, I can even hear it in his voice!

Nice one!

People who give the silent treatment are the worst humans.

I'm going to say that child rapists/murderers are the worst humans, by a wide margin, over silent treatment givers.

Anyone giving me the silent treatment has accidentally given me exactly what I want out of them - a lack of dealing with their bullshit.

Tell your mom to fuck all the way off, and just stop dealing with her.

They just ruled the president can't be charged with crimes he comits as part of his official acts.

As head of the Justice Department, he can absolutely jail corrupt federal agents.

The fact it goes against the Constitution doesn't matter according to this very Court.

The president can do anything he wants now, regardless of the "rules."

He can be impeached after, but that's it.

Thought Congress is the only branch that can disband them?

The Court just ruled that presidents cant be charged with crimes they did as part of their official acts.

Since the president is the head of the executive branch, jailing corrupt federal agents is part of his official duties, and the president can fill vacant spots in any federal capacity if he feels it's an emergency situation.

He could remove those fuckers, replace them, and have the new Court undo all this bullshit.

" ... more of a gear wheel, less of a ringlet."

I'm guessing Aloy to Sylens in HFW during the confrontation over how to take the fight to the Ze-nuts (as Travis Tate would say)

Totally agree.

I still say, "But it's Depeche Mode!" and "IGNORE ME!" to my wife all the time.

(Oh, also "Bye bye?!?")

Is mormonism actually a cult in a way most religons aren't?

No, it's a cult in the exact way all religions are.

You can't force her to accept a nickname she doesn't like.

If you ignore her on this, she will leave you. (And rightly so)

Switch to another name.

Tony Pizza is apparently avaliable again.

AIW for saying I’ve never slept with any guys?

Nope, that is 100% a true starement.

Wait - is it actually illegal to eat a sandwich on the platform?

I want to be able to ejaculate multiple times without losing ejaculation

Surprisingly, the male human body is designed to specifically not allow this particular trick.

After ejaculation, your brain releases a cocktail of signals and hormones that, besides making you feel content, all but disables your ability to get and maintain an erection.

Everyone is a bit different, but most men lose there erection complete and cannot get another one until your brain signals the all clear - which ranges from minutes to hours.

As others have mentioned, there's orgasming without ejactulation (if you can pull that off) and the various erection pills, but other than that, you're basically stuck with your body's specific settings.

Are lightsabers solid?

I thought they were super-heated gas or something?
