He's lying. Or bullshitting. Whatever you call it when people say shit without any regard for the truth. Typical conservative slop.

People don't think too good when they're emotional, so this would be very effective.

It's not corporate owned. No profit motive to turn things to shit.

I never heard of Geese, but I only really use Lemmy for social media.

That's a good speech. I really hope the republican party and its ideals die out, but I don't think it's going to go peacefully.

Unless the people responsible for him being jailed are personally ruined, i don't think this is a good outcome.

I prefer Fate's system:

When you don't like your roll, you can either reroll or take a flat bonus. Because Fate is a dice pool instead of flat-probability-1d20, if you do take the reroll to make up for an atrocious roll, you're less likely to get another atrocious roll. Usually you just need the little bump to make a difference.

Moving to a new city without a financial plan is a dubious idea, yeah. Especially since the current economic situation is Bad.

NYC isn't cheap but sometimes you get what you pay for. But yeah, $2000/mo rent is probably eye popping for a lot of people. You save a lot by not having a car, though. Or roommates can also cut the cost.

What a piece of shit. I hope he lives the rest of his miserable days poor and forgotten.

There's this consistent line through modern history: right wing ideas are bad. It keeps happening. Right wing politicians have power, they do stuff, and it goes badly for most people. And then, somehow, few people learn, not enough decide "hurting the outgroup isn't worth my own suffering", and they get elected again.
