First half stands for "Deferred Action"

They still aren't citizens or anything

I think

Here as in which country?

Ah yes, the classic "bribe the vikings to leave" strategy
A time-honored tradition

Yes, Sargon was perma-banned from both his Twitter accounts and declined to sign up for a third

Have a national Civ V competition, winner gets to be dictator of the country

We make our own order

We don't want it handed down by the government

Literally the US already tried that and it was massively oppressive

🤔

Eh, you probably could if you wanted to

What about the mixed race people
What happens to them if every state goes ethnonationalist

I think I remember you saying 90%, AA
I'm not 90% anything
I'd be stateless if everyone took your advice and it would be because of something I didn't choose

You want to forcibly kick people out of their birthplace based on something that isn't their fault

no, we shouldn't

I kind of like my freedom actually

But what *is* degeneracy?

And who gets to decide that?

Trump needs to apologise to my cat </s>

Only thing I've seen of Candace Owens is the debate she had with Blaire White
which was uh
not great

What is that
Why is that

Who spends time and effort creating these things

There we go again with the question-headlines

What kind of D&D group switches DMs at the midpoint of a campaign?

Right? Like, without property there IS no theft

...Technically

I think the dumbest moral decision my group's been presented with was the time I asked the party to vote on whether to unkill someone

You click "appeal" type a sentence and a half and wait until they reject it

I just couldn't understand the guy's accent at 2x and didn't have time for 1x so I skipped it

I mostly watch Sargon for his sense of humor

His D&D campaign would be fantastic if any of them read the rules ever
As is, it's about a 7/10
6.5 maybe

"Our party is held together by mutually assured destruction and blackmail" -The players in Sargon's D&D

Those two getting fired was pretty stupid

I feel like a wrongful termination suit would actually work in this case

not gonna lie I would tax bees for flying in my airspace if they had money

Looks more like "generic block-folks at work" to me

*Is* that the question, though?

If two people get into a fistfight are they both guilty of assault? Same logic probably applies to both situations

"right-wing archiving websites"

just give marriage back to the churches and rename all the current legal benefits to "codependent" instead of "married"
That way roommates can get it temporarily too

Marriage was primarily a religious ceremony until like 1515 or so

The government stole the idea

Marriage only moved under state juristiction because Henry VIII wanted to leave his wife for someone else and the Catholic church wouldn't grant a divorce

Yeah by "give marriage back to the church" I mean dissociate the word from the legal benefits and move said benefits onto a different word

It's the best approach I can see for simultaneously maintaining religious *and* LGBT liberties

Yeah I assume living together is probably the main reason to cofile taxes

yeah

hmmm, can you remind me how the 5th amendment relates to marriage?

Is it like, evidence found during investigation of your spouse can't be used to accuse you of a crime?

Wait, that's the 4th...

Yeah

Ah, okay

Could just make it so everyone is allowed to refuse to incriminate someone they know

I guess it's a bit much but I disagree that nobody would get tried for anything

Many cases are resolved purely on expert testimony that presents evidence rather than witness testimony

Though I admit I didn't fully think idea through

Re: same-sex couples producing kids - Didn't they find a way for lesbians to have biological offspring (with each other, that is) through some kind of off-brand cloning tech a while back? It's probably wicked expensive but I'm pretty sure I remember reading about it

That is true

if they figure out how to manufacture artificial y-chromosomes then two ladies could have a son

or just nab a y from somewhere else and source the rest of the DNA from the mothers

I think the main thing preventing male gays from having biological offspring mostly on their own is that neither of them can actually finish it once the zygote is rigged up and ready to go

Cosmetic genetic engineering should be illegal
Eradicating genetic diseases on the other hand

Not neccessarily

IQ only measures one facet of cognitive function

I mean stuff like going Build-a-Bear on your kid's eye color and such

But yeah IQ tests are primarily a measurement of pattern recognition
Which is a great skill
But it isn't a predestination for success

Observational studies can't draw cause-effect relationships Ivan
You need an experiment to do that
According to the field of statistics anyway
Hence, bringing up rhe ethics of studying that kind of thing

No, without an experiment it actually isn't possible to establish a direct cause and effect relationship between two variables
Reliability isn't the issue
It's literally not a valid statistical claim

I siad cause in the thing you were responding to
You can obviously draw associations from observation
Sorry for the misunderstanding there

oof

It's better
For SOME things

Without exceptions, eh?
"My IQ is 160 so I can deadlift more than you"

I don't even know my IQ lol the tests are too inconsistent
I don't trust them

If everyone is the smartest person in the room they'll start to hate each other

Flies lay eggs in dead bodies

oh

heheheheh

Sink California

I thought it was 6 years

Dankula was 2, maybe you were thinking of that

This guy's case is *ancient* in internet-time
I can't even remember gay cakes *not* being a meme in certain circles

I'd like to see them try lol

house of reps is useless
thanks congress

Probably about 7 minutes assuming they actually answer the phone when I call in to cancel

Pro

uuugggghhhhh who hires these people

As if military action justifies vaporizing civilians

Military casualties

That doesn't mean you can deliberately target them

The Soviet Union collapsed by itself anyway

How does that translate to "leveling cities is ethical"?

Then Korea would've been part of the Soviet Union for 60 years, I guess?

So?

I see. A situational ally of ours might take more land, so we need to kill a ton of noncombatants in a completely different country

Don't get me wrong, Pearl Harbor was *also* unethical
Unprovoked attacks tend to be

I don't think the firebombing from all sides of the war was all that great either

I don't claim to be an expert on this, I just don't like militaries targeting civilians
Anyway, I have to put my phone away cause I'm going into a theatre

So every military was wrong, and the allies were the least wrong

"Even if women say 'kill all men', they will remain protected by a system built in their favour"

Literally true
