Perspicacious use of perspicacity is always a delight to behold. Thank you.

By stalling I mean not improving one's position. Not working for hand control. Not trying to get back to neutral. I understand that preventing points on bottom takes effort but my concept of stalling on bottom is more aligned with the folk style concept where actively trying to improve your position/situation is required. It is not sufficient to merely try to stifle the other wrestler's efforts

This articulated my feeling very well. A guy rolling across his own back (i.e. pinning himself) while the other wrestler remains sitting and never gets his shoulders closer than 2 feet to the mat does not indicate control at all to me. Lying on one's stomach and spreading out arms and legs as widely as possible seems to me to be the definition of stalling, not wrestling. I wish some sort of merge of folk and free could get the best of both - no resting in neutral, top, or bottom. Control is control and not the result of nearly random dynamic motion. And I bet that is the most original thought ever stated on this board!

Kirk or Picard? ANSWER THE QUESTION!!

Right. And she is VP because of race and genital configuration* *the euphemism I need to use to avoid the minefield of "gender" and "sex" and "pee pee shape" seems a little crass

Actually, don't need to. The ballots are already being altered and signed for you.

Dude in a horn hat is missing. And grandmas taking selfies with Capitol police between velvet ropes is missing. Desecrating monuments, striking down national flags, Yep. Those actions were very present. I guess those actions have nothing to do with insurrection. But to peacefully and patriotically express your opinion . . .

Israel needs to take a genociding course if they are ever going to get serious about it. Horrible genociders. Proportional response, retreat, negotiation, robust missile defense, and every other technique Israel has tried to stop from being indiscriminately killed has failed and now they are showing their weakness at genocide. Of course, they could genocide themselves as seems to be the preferred solution in Gaza, south Lebanon, and American university faculty lounges. Then, for sure, the Muslim world would instantly fall into a blissful state of peace.

Self-answering question: Because the majority of those on SS and MediCare vote right. The majorities on welfare, illegals, and pay-my-tuition-or-else free collegians vote left. Next question.

CO2 has zero impact on climate change. https://thehighwire.com/editorial/new-peer-reviewed-study-co2-has-zero-impact-on-climate-change/ Long(ish) read but worth it. A couple of pull quotes: "As reported by Slay News, much like a sponge, the Earth’s atmosphere can only hold so much, meaning that carbon dioxide cannot increase temperatures anymore since the saturation point was reached a long time ago. The study uses a hypothetical concept of a fire inside a greenhouse consistently emitting heat. The glass walls and ceiling can contain only so much heat before emitting it outside. CO2 in the atmosphere is very similar in that it can act as a “greenhouse” gas, but all the CO2 together can only contain so much heat, much like the hypothetical greenhouse. The CO2 Coalition agrees with this conclusion as well. Thus, amidst all the fearmongering around climate change—and the knowledge that many things, including changes in solar activity heavily influence Earth’s weather . . ." "And now, following Dr. Curry’s sound advice and insight, we have the Science Direct study reaffirming . . . Conducted by researchers from the Institute of Optoelectronics, Military University of Technology in Warsaw, Poland, the study authors found that even if we dug up all the world’s coal, extracted all the world’s oil, and burned it in one giant pyre, the CO2 emissions from that endeavor would not heat up planet Earth. Indeed, this is because carbon dioxide does not cause the Earth to warm up indefinitely.

Did you vote for the Federal Reserve, its policies, or any member of its board? My democratic self did not. For example, I would abolish the 2% inflation target as it is part of the problem. No inflation should be the target. I have not yet seen the referendum on whether or not Americans believe we should make devaluing our money (i.e. our property and our work effort) a national policy. Neither has your democratic self. No one has ever voted democratically on Fed policy. Therefore, no threat to democracy. The chief executive of an organization (the executive branch of the government) having influence over the nature of the employment of those in that organization is not very radical nor anti-democratic. Therefore, no threat to democracy. Jan 6th is a nothing burger. Never was a burger. Just grandmas taking selfies on a stroll between the velvet ropes for 10 or 15 minutes. The big scandal of Jan 6th was the decisions by the Speaker of the House and the DC Mayor when requests for security were denied by those brilliant ladies. Again, no threat to democracy. A presidential nominee whom nobody voted to represent them: A direct threat to democracy.

'Donald Trump Will Destroy Democracy,' Says Party Nominating Candidate No One Voted For Parody sites like Babylon Bee cannot keep up with the absurdity of the real left.

Too bad Mayorkas is not also on the way out. He’s her “boss” keeping us all “secure”!!

The most undemocratic outcome possible. This man is so beloved that 90+% of the primary voters selected him. 81 million "voters" make him the most democratic democrat in the history of democracy. This is nothing short of an insurrection thwarting the will of the people.

Think of all the ballots that will now have to be thrown out. Or do all of the Dem State AGs make new election rules (like they did in 2024, illegally) stating that a ballot marked for Biden is countable as a ballot for whomever is the Dem candidate? Remember, Joseph R. Biden is the most popular president EVER. EVERRRRRRR!!!!! 81 million ballots. Wilson, FDR, JFK, Clinton, Obama - none were nearly as beloved as a democrat leader as the demi-god Joe Biden. The Democrat voters overwhelmingly indicated their love for BIden in the primaries. Removing the overwhelmingly popular and democratically elected candidate is the most anti-democracy act possible. Our Democracy is at risk!! Prima facie evidence that the DNC is the biggest threat to democracy in our lifetime.

Businesses are going under because crime is down. When private property is not protected and taking it at will is not a crime then businesses go under BECAUSE “crime” is down.

Are these the people doing all of the legitimate oppressing? Good decision making should be penalized in order to achieve equity. We could take their money and give it to others. That is a novel idea.

Lame attempt at a joke. I retract it.

"Legitimately oppressed"?!? No there are not. Oppression is never legitimate. Wasn't that the justification for slavery?

FIFY

Hamas is considered POCs and "oppressed". "Oppressed" people can commit any crime and it will be completely ignored because their "oppressed" status makes them completely indemnified against any requirement to act as humans. The same principle is applied to the situation in urban America. Of course, the question is hypothetical and the author already knows the answer.

“Right now, Michigan has 104.5% of our state’s voting-age population registered to vote. No photo ID is required to vote. We have no system to tell if someone votes in multiple states and the current secretary of state failed to remove 170,000 names from the voting rolls of people who no longer lived in the state until after she was sued,” The banana republic of Michigan is gaining notoriety at every opportunity.

Does not the term "official acts" become the qualifier of the absolute?
