Fairies. Generally absurdly powerful magic beings. Commonly assholes or outright sociopaths to those that attract their attention.

Probably better to stick with codenames and send in duchess.

You forgot the most probable option the documentation they want is dog shit. Internal documents are almost universally garbage that is out of date and doesn't cover the important decisions, it just reiterates what is obvious from reading the code.

The monied interests in the healthcare world.

People generally don't realize how many ads are actually on pages. It's way more than just some search results. Carousels are entirely ads. Home page is almost 100% ads. The men's pants page, mostly ads. Product comparison or review sites are almost all ad based. Affiliate links are just a way to make ads not look like ads.

You saw a steam deck ad, you just didn't classify it as an ad. People who think ads don't affect them are lieing to themselves. Not all ads are about immediate action. You stop at Taco Bell over McDonald's on a road trip because their ad gets associated with happiness subconsciously. Not being able to think of the ads is the point, most ads aren't trying to directly stick in your brain, it's about associating keywords and emotion.

It's not about hating the guy on the other side because someone told you to. I mean, you should hate someone because they're an asshole, or a pervert, or snob, or they're lazy, or arrogant or an idiot or know-it-all. Those are reasons to dislike somebody. You don't hate a person because someone told you to. You have to learn to despise people on a personal level. Not because they're red, or because they're blue, but because ya know them, and you see them every single day. And you can't stand them, because they're a complete and total fucking douchebag.

Seven deadly sins uses a lot of biblical and mythical influences.
Trinity Blood uses the papal state as a government.
Hetalia Axis powers uses mythical representations of countries as characters, this might be a stretch.

If the vice president can't be the figurehead of a taskforce in a friendly administration for an important campaign issue, they aren't qualified to be president.

That's how live service games work. The vast majority don't make money. It's a go viral or die market.

This message fell flat. She's the vice president, the message should have been I'm working with the AG now to investigate price to gouging, and will continue that when elected. Also the end result is just the government getting a small settlement check, that means fuck all to people.

Maybe one day enough younger people will be in elected that understand computers aren't magic. There's no fundamental difference between selling a DVD and a digital movie, from a legal perspective.

Now is a great time for if I were there hypotheticals, so here's mine.

Once it was decided to run Harris and push Biden out, they should have gone all the way and used the 25th amendment to let Harris become president. This would have effectively separated her from Biden while still allowing her to take credit for the good stuff. She could have instructed the DOJ to start investigating price gouging now, and campaigned on needing to win to keep it up.

The 100ish days wouldn't have been enough for wholesale replacement, but it could have created a concrete message of this is where I want to go. A campaign focused on already delivering is a positive message people could get behind as well.

With Tyrek Hill being detained less than 4 months after the arrest of Scottie Scheffler, have the police actually angered enough people with money and power that there could be actual consequences?

Not a huge surprise.

Harbaugh is looking at a 4 game suspension for lying to NCAA investigation. Ultimately meaningless because the first 4 games aren't against anyone competitive. This could be an excuse to not extend his contract that expires after this season.

Preseason predictions. (sh.itjust.works)

What is everyone's predictions for the coming season? The hype is as an all time high for the Lions, is anyone buying it?

Vegas has the Lions at 9.5 wins, I think it's totally possible that they can hit the over. I'm buying the hype and think that this year it's the Lions division to lose. Superbowl is probably not happening, but 1-2 playoff wins could happen.
