Feel like this is just asking for someone whose loved one died of cancer to invoke Saint Luigi on some of Bayer’s leadership. I wouldn’t be mad.

Right. You can’t pick the lesser evil in the election today, then go do nothing, and expect good outcomes.

Harm reduction has a place but it’s not the whole solution

Bit of a tactical blunder, that.

It’s going to be a pretty dramatic change for anyone depending on services that are cut.

States don’t have unlimited money.

Every time I see this I think about opportunity costs. What got skipped in favor of this dubious effort?

i’m waiting for someone to fight instead of run, and I don’t know what the fallout there will be. Hopefully a lot of dead ICE goons.

The Manhattan one was pretty big today.

Saw one counter protestor, who oddly was a black woman. She didn’t seem entirely well based on what she said when people talked to her

I’m really happy for this guy and just absolutely despairing over how weak labor generally is. People don’t even imagine a better world, it feels like.

It just takes one brave soul with a hidden weapon to pose next to him, and we can be on a better timeline.

As the other poster said, you can have multiple accounts. Betterment, for example, automatically puts money in several banks for you and is thus insured up to $2 million.

So if the stocks fall enough you won’t have your money anyways.

Banks are insured by the government. If they get rid of the FDIC then I don’t know, but if a bank collapses you still get your money.

The fact that if you’re rich, you stop paying social security tax is insane. I hit it one year and was like why did I get a big bump in my take home? I absolutely did not need the extra cash.

Musk is also a profoundly stupid man with the emotional maturity of an unloved 13 year old boy. He’ll do anything to try to fill the void in his heart. Well, anything except be a decent person, I guess.

It’s the “conservatism has one rule: there must be in-groups for the law to protect but not bind, and outgroups for the law to bind but not protect” thing.

Show your work.

Good. More.

I don’t know PBTA well but I believe so.

Basically, every scene and character can have ‘aspects’, which are things that are true about them. They’re free form. Sometimes they’re just there, like if you’re in a bar it might have “Bubbling with drunk banter” or “Loud Pop Punk Soundtrack”. Aspects can then affect what makes sense in the scene. “Loud Pop Punk” can make it easier to move without being heard, but harder to make a speech because no one can hear you, for example.

You can also explicitly create aspects. Turn off the jukebox and the aspect might change to “Weirdly Quiet Bar” or whatever. In a fight, you can use the “create an advantage” move. That’s for stuff that isn’t about taking them out of the conflict right now, but setting things up. Like pushing them off balance, disarming them, screaming “LOOK! A DISTRACTION!” whatever. If the roll comes out if your favor, you can create an aspect that’s true and can also be invoked for a numeric bonus on a dice roll. So if you pants the guy you’re fighting, he can’t run full speed to chase you because his pants are down. You can also invoke that if you want to kick his ass, for a bonus on the dice roll.

These are all free form and it’s up to the group to decide what it actually means. Most groups probably wouldn’t let you invoke “I’m literally on fire!!” as a bonus if you’re trying to sneak through a crowd.

Typically, as I understand it, you’re either trying to take them out of the fight or trying to create advantages for side of the conflict. On a dramatic success on trying to take someone out, you can also create a small advantage.

But they also kill their children and innocent bystanders.

I know someone who is immune compromised because she had a rare genetic disorder, and the medicine she needs to live fucks up her immune system. She can’t benefit from vaccines. If some anti-vaxxer refuses a vaccine, gets sick, and sneezes on her on the subway, she’ll might die.

Plus very old and young people are vulnerable, too.

The person who didn’t get vaccinated might not even die, if they’re otherwise healthy.

We really need to organize and remove the conservatives from power. Peacefully is ideal, but I won’t be upset if all the republicans are hanged.
