sorry I gotta know every detail of what happened here. why were they messing with pow(). why did they not test pow() after messing with it. why did it take until an investigation by the osu team to figure out what was wrong. should the osu team be placed in charge of the windows runtime

he left some wiggle room with "almost" but i'm going to ignore that and say there's at least one profession that won't be automatable by then. yes, you've probably already guessed it, livestreaming video games.

Earth is normally portrayed as a Mother, feminine
Mars, the God of War, is typically masculine
Therefore, in this 90 page essay, I submit to you that terraforming Mars is just planetary force feminization.

you're telling me that america is considering a revolution after making judges dependent on his will alone, sending hither swarms of officers to harass our people, and transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offenses?
Stephen Miller on Gov. J.B. Pritzker calling for mass protests:
“His comments…could be construed as inciting violence…This war that Democrat governors and mayors are waging against federal law enforcement. I mean, this is nullificationist behavior. This is secessionist behavior.”

New YouGov/Economist poll out this morning finds Trump is no longer popular on immigration. This was the last issue he had a positive net approval on.
This was very easy to see coming, esp bc individual components of immigration policy are so toxic: www.gelliottmorris.com/p/should-dem...

The reason that Democrats can't compromise on the culture war is that the actual demand from conservatives is that LGBT people simply disappear from public life, which is not something that the Democratic Party is capable of actually conceding.
