I grew up in Reagan and 911 era…

Ok, but what does that have to do with someone’s arrest for ties to ISIS?

I for one loved reading your rambling, 10/10 would do again even without the tangential relation to the topic

…yet

Being President is an official act of the office of President, the President isn’t accountable for crimes as part of official acts, therefore breaking the law on Presidential term limits by staying President is legal.

Then I too declare myself to be Trump. I’ll take the Presidency Mon-Tues, he can have it Weds-Thurs, and we’ll do alternating Fri-Sat-Sun weekends.

please don’t say otherwise please

If you’re only willing to hear what you already want to believe, why are you even asking?

Reminds me a lot of Infinite Craft https://neal.fun/infinite-craft/ (except with more restricted combinations)

I don’t have any allergies or similar things that could be causing this as far as I know.

Are there allergies that cause excessive flatulence?

Even though I had the model 2 growing up, I really like the model 1 Genesis/Megadrive. Had a kind of futuristic/sci-fi vibe to me.

Anyone concerned with whether the democrats “who we serve” page mentioned men specifically was unlikely to vote for a woman of color anyway.

I think that’s actually a worse scenario. Trump, while evil, doesn’t really have the focus or energy to fully enact the entire range of bullshit he could/people say he will. If Vance takes over, his billionaire puppeteers are in full control and he’ll enthusiastically continue on with Project 2025. If there’s an election in 2028, he gets to run with the advantages of being the incumbent President instead of a VP hoping to take over from his predecessor.

Man that contract builder one is hell on my red-green colorblindness

As I said to my Mom earlier today: White nazis? That’s no problem for them. Black nazis? That’s where they draw the line.

Habits, familiarity, convenience, complacency

With everything else, yeah, that tracks

Yeah, I probably should’ve put won in quotes, but I’d argue there’s still a small difference between running as the incumbent and the situation with Clinton. Not that it really fucking matters now.

So where do you think the lines would get drawn? West Coast and New England + New York are the obvious ones to do their own thing. Pennsylvania cuts off the DMV area from New York/New England, unless we go on a county level and excise just the area around Philly to keep the whole northeast Atlantic together.

Is Chicago just left as an island in the Midwest? The red staters certainly won’t want it, and without it Illinois basically is a red state. RIP to the other midwest and southern cities too.

Colorado and New Mexico together would be quite fucked being landlocked in a sea of red otherwise.

Congratulations to Hawaii on its regained independence I guess. Alaska would probably be offered up to Putin as a thank you gift from Trump.

Do you think all the red states stay together as a single entity? Texas is an obvious candidate to decide to fuck off on its own, possibly Florida as well. But would South Carolina really care all that much to stay tied to Montana, for example, or vice versa?

Though to be fair, Biden won the (practically uncontested) primaries in 2024 and probably would have gotten his shit stomped in just as hard

Bold of you to assume I have my shit together enough to do any of this. Sounds nice though, and I wish you all the best.

So the PS2 is right around the corner again? Sweet!
