The Franklin painting is apparently part of the "science" symbolism for Biden. I think I read he has something else in the office too that was meant to reflect something similar.

Among other...

Hey I don't have a dog in this fight but Robby specifically said no one's calling you a Trump supporter. His broader point was that you can occasionally echo his talking points by engaging in...

The ceremony starts at 11 am Eastern but it's hard to say when the actual swearing-in and speech will be. Should wrap up by 12:30 or so, judging by the scheduled livestream.

Biden's genuinely done a pretty good job of picking a diverse cabinet- it's nearly 50% women and has representation from most minorities, including a Native American woman running the Department of...

I agree, new thread for a newish series.

Melania's definitely been waiting until he's out of office to divorce him. She enjoys the trappings of power and deserves no sympathy, but I think her own breed of shittiness is somewhat different...

Melania was social distancing before eit was mainstream

He lost a lot of favor when news about his secret kid came out, and he'd have run for Senate or something if he actually wanted to stay in politics. I think Arnold's happier just sniping at the GOP...

2008-2010, before Republicans drummed up Tea Party racists to get Republican control of the House for the first time in ages.

And also FDR, with the namesake New Deal. It's certainly not out of the question.

Been playing Binding Blade and just beat Chapter 21. I forgot to bring an Armorslayer or Hammer and was thus forced to use Roy to help whittle down Murdock. Through the magic of supports and a Rapier...

Don't forget, a drawing and note from little Horikoshi made it in to one of the early One Piece volumes. It's entirely understandable that he would have a stronger attachment to early characters.

Higher level Cleric abilities, with a few subclass exceptions, have always seemed fairly underwhelming to me. Divine Intervention is unreliable and Destroy Undead is pretty meh. I'm not too enamored...

For the cursed chainmail, I think I'd remove the phrasing that a 19 or 20 results in a crit and instead just say the Confusion-like effect activates on a 19 or 20 roll. As for the effect itself, I...

A couple of quick language notes: the term "free action" doesn't actually appear in the PHB, so you might want to change that first weapon to activate when the character makes an attack roll. You...

This list is focused on the effectiveness of the presidents and how many of their goals they accomplished. That's why assholes like Reagan, Wilson, and Jackson are up relatively high. All racists,...

I'm fine with Best Jeanist showing up out of the blue, and with other characters jumping in, because every single one has been shown/foreshadowed en route. If he'd shown up with absolutely no...

Legit proud of you, my dude. Hopefully voting next time will feel a little easier.

--- Update From New Post Merge ---


Georgia's almost certainly going to a recount since just a few thousand...

It looks like that's what they're doing, at least in written form. The only articles I could find on it were the NYPost one, National Review, and Bloomberg Media. I read the Bloomberg one and it does...

If you're looking to try some Sanderson, the entire Warbreaker book is available free on his website chapter by chapter. Ironically it's one of the few books by him that I haven't read.

Trump has peddled half a dozen fake cures that all have serious and potentially deadly side effects. He simply can't be trusted on the matter. His endorsement of any vaccine is irrelevant at this...

I'm guessing your shock is at the wording on Prop 16. Prop 16 basically allows California to reinstate affirmative action, meaning that a No vote is to maintain racial equality (as opposed to...

Some new polls just published- Trump and Biden tied in Texas at 48%, Cornyn up just 47%-46% per Daily Kos. Trump down 52%-40% nationally per Rasmussen (Rasmussen!).

Fivethirtyeight's projections...

This is a good data point: we now know COVID can infect Reptilians too.

My ballot is apparently on the way but I got my pamphlet book over the weekend and spent a few hours Sunday figuring out the local "nonpartisan" candidates and the 17(!) state and local ballot...

I'm not trusting anything put out about his health until Trump actually makes a public appearance again. We already know the White House has lied to us before about Trump's health, I see no reason to...

He's being hospitalized???

Adding to this, Biden's also got a big 6-8 point lead in Wisconsin, with him leading by as much as 10 in recent polls. He's doing arguably better there than in Pennsylvania. Plus, Biden's also...

I'd argue that Trump won tonight's debate simply by bringing Biden down closer to his level. He wants to depress turnout- two old white guys yelling incoherently at each other works nicely for that....

Good taxation is a form of socialism in that everyone helps provide for common goods (infrastructure, military, healthcare, regulation, education, etc.) that would be difficult to accomplish by...
