In the US? … Obama? (In a very big nutshell) as long as you don’t oppose stuff like the Dreamers and Obamacare (which you shouldn’t under this definition)

By the way, I think this bit

Conservatism holds that if things are pretty good, most changes are likely to make things worse and not better

Is the biggest discrepancy in each person’s understanding. If things are good…for who? What if they’re not? If they are for 51% of people, what about the other 49%?

If you understand some stuff is good for you and some stuff is very bad for everyone else, do you block everything?

If only your situation changes and nothing else, do you switch parties?

You built up your very own definition of the word while ignoring what any political conservative movement in the world actually does. You listened to someone’s argument on the concept of a definition, an idea that was stapled to a word in your head, without actually looking at factual reality. What you describe is simply not what any conservative party anywhere does.

Starting with the idea that you are conserving something that runs well and not spending resource on frivolous nonsense that doesn’t work - just look at everything a conservative party actually funds while blocking money for anything remotely humanitarian because they claim it doesn’t work, or based on the slightest disagreement about a boundary, while being themselves the very reason it doesn’t work.

Look at what is actually protected. And at who isn’t, based on not giving too much to someone you don’t think deserves it. Do those who already have all that deserve it?

Starting with your environmental conservationist sensibility and deducing (edit: typo) that you want to be a conservative is already super wild, it’s antinomic. You think you protect something from greed and selfishness, but those who who block progress are the selfish ones who hoard everything out of greed, using “this doesn’t deserve it” or “you can’t prove this works” as an excuse to keep everything. You are not safeguarding anything, and there’s zero place for environmental protection in any conservative party anywhere.

It’s the first part with its DLC extension that was also released as a single pack, not the second part (Rebirth).

Connecticut is Jewish?

They call him tennou actually (heavenly king) but then when they were forced to open up, they heard of Napoleon and they thought damn that’s cool, we’ll tell foreigners to use that too.

Tennou has been in use for over 1350 years, and in the late 19th c. they thought their governmental subdivision (provinces) more closely matched that of France under Napoleon III I think (departments).

and the grammar squiggles damnit, they lied!!1

It’s just a colloquial thing, a grammar book will tell you it’s wrong, but people make up new words and meanings for long enough and things become commonly accepted and understood. It’s also a cynical use of the word, and the fact that it feels off is also effective in telling you that the meaning should make you feel uneasy - for this word we are talking about a fascist government abducting people and actually everybody knows what happened, after all. It’s perfectly cromulent, it doesn’t have to be Tiktok lingo (but words like unalive may very well become acceptable too).

There have been empresses in the (distant) past, it’s just that now they claim it’s no good. They’ll go back to it they really have no one else. Picking a different family is NOT happening, the Japanese line is the oldest continuous dynasty in the world (mythologically allegedly 2680 years, historically reliably something like 1400~1500 years and possibly 1800). It’s a living treasure of humanity. They’ll give up the system before they pick a new line, and they’ll pick a woman before they give up the system.

You might have confused the full universe with the observable universe.

Right now, what we see at the “edge” of the observable universe is where it was less than 13.8 billion years away, because that light emitted back then from that spot took that time to reach us. But those things we’re seeing have since moved away, and AFAIK they are now estimated to be 47 billion light-years away (for a total size of 94 billion light-years across), which seems close to your 1/4 number.

And there’s additional hurdles for more targeted populations, like access to the place that gives you the ID, and the capacity to prove your ID to that place with specific documents that may ormay not exist. It’s on purpose.

Dude, the US has been blocking Palestine and the UN since long before Trump.

Well of course too much is bad for you, that’s what “too much” means you blithering twat. If you had too much water it would be bad for you, wouldn’t it? “Too much” precisely means that quantity which is excessive, that’s what it means. Could you ever say “too much water is good for you”? I mean if it’s too much it’s too much. Too much of anything is too much. Obviously. Jesus.

I read “2012 : la sainte famille ira visiter la Syrie” (the holy family will visit Syria)

Anyone knows who’s the, uh, white mage on the right?

Ace Attorney seems complete, including the Investigations and Great spin-offs. Mega Man collection apparently doesn’t have Mega Man 11 (last entry in the OG series) and the bundle doesn’t have the Zero series (4 games), the ZX series (2 games), and the Star Force series (3 games). There’s a separate collection for the Zero series, and maybe the ZX series too. I don’t know about Star Force. Also no Mega Man Legend 1 & 2, no Mega Man X Command Mission, Mega Man Power Battle, but those are different types of games, not the classic 2D platformers. No Zero and ZX is quite a miss though.

I don’t do Python, what’s the null pointer error message for “variable ‘sentence’ is not defined”?

“Clair Obscur is the franchise name,” says Broche. “Expedition 33 is one of the stories that we want to tell in this franchise. Exactly what it will look like and what the concept will be is still too soon to announce, but what is sure is that this is not the end of the Clair Obscur franchise.”

Looking forward to Clair Obscur: December 33 for whatever is going on with the Writers.

It’s lifted from Deadpool 2, “oh no, they’re right there.”

Was there a daily occurrence of masked ICE agents with no identification smashing cars and grabbing people under Obama? I understand you want to talk about Democrats gladly participating in laws that help fascists, and you’re right, but it’s still valid to show the active fascist shift by listing the occurrences that pile up now when they didn’t before - not nearly as much.

Stargate?

She literally made that comment while posting a picture of a concentration camp, so yeah, that’s exactly what she was claiming. Who knows what she thinks of alligator Auschwitz now. Wouldn’t bother asking though, but I do wonder what Pedro Pascal thinks of it all.
