Re: Medical Questions I'd Like Answered...
My mother was into homeopathy. She drew a distinction between her casual use of it for mundane bullshit that would likely have faded with time anyway VS people using it instead of real fucking healthcare. At the time I assumed she knew at some level that she was deluding herself into benefiting from...

Re: [Non-US] News That Makes You laugh/cry/neither...
Maduro has officially won the Venezuelan election with 51.2% of votes cast and 59% turnout, the kind of margin you see in "normal" western "democracies" where the rigging is achieved at a structural level by trying to only allow corporate stooges on the ballot and monstering anyo...

Re: The Biden Administration (No Lago)
The alternative would be for "Israel" to either admit that genocide is bad or else, worse, to admit that they are facing legitimate military defeat in the field despite a drastically better resourced army, because they fundamentally aren't that good at waging real war against real warriors...

Re: 2024 Election Thread
I don't think that we can conclude from "they put Biden in a box before" that they can definitely put him in a box now. It's likely easier to put someone in a box if they are going along with it. The younger more lucid Biden from the dIsTaNt pAsT of 2016 may well have legitimately been les...

(musings in a second post because the first one got replies before I edited it in and I've slightly refined the thought) Back when I was desigining a system for a new group (boring story, won't tell) I was pretty stuck on the idea that clerics should get to still be clerics of the same potency if th...

WRT divine classes that can Fall, I prefer the solution mentioned offhand in I think the Kaelik Cleric where the kind of person who would become a Cleric or Paladin takes no more than a fortnight to either make it up to their existing patron in downtime or to get hooked up with a new patron.

UK election results are in, we now get up to five years of Sir Keith refusing to actually fix anything. Based on the extremely low voter turnout, and the fact one J. Corbyn retained his seat without his former party's backing, there's a couple overlapping explanations. One, whereas most of Europe ha...

Re: 2024 Election Thread
Biden's complicity, nay, active involvement in the genocide of Gaza is an intentional thing not a matter of incompetence. So we'd be going from intentional genocide to intentional genocide, and there really isn't anything Trump can materially do to further support the extermination the Israelis are ...

Re: The Biden Administration (No Lago)
The historical tendency behind guys like Biden is that the USA has tended to benefit from preventing some kind of pan-arab union, because even as a vassal it'd be a big enough vassal to kick up a fuss here and there (like the EU). So having a belligerent and unpredictable attack dog in the region ph...

Re: 2024 Election Thread
This also makes sense of the Morgan13 post reacting with apparent shock when I recounted the story of the Major Solomon Berg incident wrt Kerry Cassidy's conspiracy podcast - as if I'd written a storyline instead of recounting what other people came up with.

Re: 2024 Election Thread
Biden has not, in fact, put any pressure on Israel to do anything. Biden putting pressure on Israel would look like providing no military aid at all, none, not so much as a sausage until they played ball, not like providing 1% less good gear than Trump might hypothetically do. Mexican border, the ki...

Now admittedly I was an ignorant and incurious child during the Blair administration, however as much as the Iraq war tainted his legacy I don't recall it being a major factor in his entire party losing the 2010 election.

Faced with a calculation of a brief period of reduced inflation plus the likely trajectory of Labour staying pretty Zionist even as the Gaza genocide gets harder to ignore thus alienating some of their core voter and activist base, Dishi Rishi has called a UK general election for the 4th of July.
