I was being honest.

Thank you. It reminds me of All You Need Is Kill, or the Edge of Tomorrow. In these kinds of movies they absolutely gloss over the massive amounts of time between the first repetition and the one that breaks the loop. Because, 90% of that is nothing, while %10 is incremental growth toward the break. Everyone’s played a game like a ‘souls like’, chess even, or a card game, and it takes hundreds of repetitions* to get slightly better. All I Need Is Kill does a good job of painting that picture, and The Edge of Tomorrow does a somewhat decent job of portraying that for cinema (they really should have kept the number count on his hand to subtly and fully express the time frame here). Honestly, for the movie, Groundhogs Day, we probably only see about 15-30 reps. But, the viewer can imagine significantly more. Same with something like the Apple+ show Black Matter, at the end of the season we’re led to believe what we saw as a dozen or so universes is now thousands, and it makes sense after the curtain is lifted.

I now see that you may have been trying to be funny, an “/s” may help us better to recognize your jokes in the future. Thank you for your contribution.

What prevented the states from not listing the insurrectionist this last time?

Also, what state would stand up to the fascist that* they elected?

Also, when you’re the weak one in the group of fascists, a state* AG, Governor, or guy running the election, how long do you think you’d live or remain employed beyond you deciding to rock the boat here?

I’m sorry, repeating the title of the movie already listed in the TIL doesn’t reach the standard of proof required to convince anyone that it was exactly XYZ number of lived days. Unless your source specifically (external to the movie) states that the movie states that it was XYZ number of days, you aren’t helping.

Where’s your supporting source?

I think it’s safe to assume that if you can control promotions you’ll promote those who better fit your ideology. And if you also implement a ‘red scare’ labeling and removing anyone who holds different ideologies than yours… all that will be left are those willing to obey what would have been illegal orders, and those that believe your orders aren’t illegal.

Edit: remember, they only just removed DA photos from the SRB, because they had a problem with promotions going to people who ‘looked like military leaders’ which was very heavily favoring ‘strong white men’.

A roll back of policies like that, reimplementing things like ‘Don’t ask, Don’t tell’, labeling progressives or democrats as socialists or commies, labeling non-religious people similarly as non-American, discriminating against minorities again and labeling them as others… also, don’t forget that 1 member of Congress held up our top promotions for how many months?.. due to his personal belief about abortion rights? The ground work is already being laid.

‘Woke policies are weakening our military!’ ‘Women don’t belong in combat fields!’ ‘Permitting trans and gays in the military made us the laughing stock of the world!’ ‘Roll back woke mandates in the military!’… feels like an easy path to follow, there.

Edit 2: https://fortune.com/2024/11/13/pentagon-stunned-trump-nomination-pete-hegseth-fox-news-defense-secretary/

“Hegseth’s choice could bring sweeping changes to the military, as he has made it clear on his show and in interviews that, like Trump, he is stridently opposed to “woke” programs that promote equity and inclusion. He’s also questioned the role of women in combat and advocated pardoning service members charged with war crimes.”

Here we go!

Doing it over years, replacing leadership at different levels at different intervals, starting at day 1, then everyone 8-12 months thereafter, until You reach year four… will mean they the leaders you’ve instilled across the formation will all be prepped and on the same page when you throw the coup at year 4.

That’s why they’re starting now, not 2027 or 2028.

But, they didn’t come and personally talk to me about how Kamden Hussein omala was going to make the ‘economy better’ (than it did post Trump’s BS)!

Watched all of Arcane s1 yesterday, and it was good. I’ve recently gotten on an animated kick, so if you’re into that, the show holds up.

I think it’s probably the angle here, the ‘where’ appears the have the same letter for both ‘e’s so, it looks more stylistic than a typo necessarily. Also, damn… calling a guy out. I actually enjoy their stuff, in moderation, and didn’t think that song was terrible.

But, we can’t remove the tax-exempt status from churches that are explicitly promoting Republican candidates…?

What does her tattoo say? It looked like nonsense English to me.

More than half your class is too busy licking their boots to unite against them. They’re grateful for the scraps they’re being given, while worshipping their masters.

I mean… the alternative is Hawaii, which isn’t at all the bastion of ‘cheap vacations’.

Total control, they can impeach every democratic judge and expel any and every democratic congressman/woman if they don’t play ball. And you still have the appearance of following the constitution.

They don’t even have to use unconventional routes to remove judges from the SCOTUS, all they have to do is impeach. ‘But, they don’t have the numbers in the Senate!’, once a few congressmen fall out windows, everyone else will rubber stamp whatever else the GOP wants, to include impeaching leftist judges and expelling leftist congressmen who don’t fall in line.

This is me, boss comes in with a new task, I immediately whip out my green notebook and start writing as he’s talking then let him know I’ll get to it when I’m done with my current task. I use black for writing out the task and subtasks, red for checking items I’ve completed already, slashing through tasks that are no longer required, or writing notes that come up during the task (like ticket numbers). I think I’m like just below halfway through the notebook I started in February.

There’ll be no shortage of those once they start rounding up the democrats (to include anything else that isn’t the ‘true republican’), the LGBTQ+, and non(‘correct version’ of)christians. Oh, and minorities.

The first members of the administration, Congress, or the SC who aren’t faithful enough will be the ones who ‘commit suicide by throwing themselves out their hotel windows’, the rest will rubber stamp any and every maga law, to include anything that would prevent him from being president for life, like his buddy Putin.
