No, it really doesn't. I expect Obama, W, and Biden were all kind people.

Either way, it certainly wasn't a Democratic administration pushing for them to be unbanned.

All you need is one instance to actually verify its users.

https://nytimes.social seems like a good one. Maybe they should start that.

I feel betrayed that a democrat administration pushed to repeal that ban.

I guess you can feel a little less betrayed.

Today, the Supreme Court (SCOTUS) ruled 6-3 under its conservative supermajority that a bump stock attachment does not convert a semiautomatic rifle into a machine gun, which is prohibited under federal law. Under this decision, civilians now have access to bump stocks again.

And the only reason he can be retried is that not all jurors agreed. Had they just refused to enforce the law, then they walk free forever (at least from that crime).

They evacuated schools today, by the way. Bomb threats. Parents had to pick up their kids at a different school.

It's just name squatting. They're nearly all 0 posts.

It's actually really valuable. It can be a great alternative to a tracheotomy.

I don't know if this is in practice yet, but I've heard of it in recent years.

Delicious. (I'm in Ohio.)

She says 9/11 was an inside job, so Trump invited her to the 9/11 memorial this week.

Also it wasn't a "unity gesture". It was a funny moment for the people in the room and/or was intended to make the Trump convert more comfortable.

Either way, it was absolutely fine in context. The only concern is how it could be taken out of context, and fuck that. I'm tired of walking a tightrope worrying about what Fox News might say.

If it was a "unity gesture", it was for that one guy. It wasn't for the Fox News audience.

I played long, long ago and I'm toying with the idea of casually coming back. However, I've heard that the cost to play has skyrocketed. From what I can see the most basic, standard decks start at around $500, and only go up from there.

I'm not interested in coming back if it means spending several thousand dollars a year.

Say if you were to just buy boxes as the new sets came out, how many boxes would you likely have to buy in a year to be able to build a couple distinct decks?

Is 2v2 money drafting still a thing? When does the next base set start?

Any other commentary or advice is welcome. Let me know if this is buying a boat.
