Trump Assassination Attempt Megathread:
  • And you think this would help your cause? This would only motivate the right and make them more brazen. You can change things using violence, and if you do they won't last. It's up to the people to defeat them in the elections. Your focus should be on grassroots movements to change the people's minds, not resort to violence like this. This same thought process is what led to J6 riots.

  • Trump lied and Biden got tongue tied at the first debate. So why is the world only focusing on one?
  • Senile has a very specific meaning, and while Trump is a number of things, he's nowhere near as senile as Biden yet. Biden lost trains of thought constantly, and tried to find a fitting word to complete his sentence, jumped from one subject to another, and ended up beating medicare. Just watch Biden in the 2020 debate and now. Tell me you don't see an astounding difference.

  • Trump lied and Biden got tongue tied at the first debate. So why is the world only focusing on one?
  • Listening to this for the first time, and I don't hear him say he's the black woman. He starts saying something, then changes mid sentence and says, "like I said, the first black woman vice president, served with a black president, first black woman chief justice". Are you saying he says he's also the first black woman chief justice? There's legitimately many concerning things he has said due to his mental issues, but this is just nitpicking.

  • Trump lied and Biden got tongue tied at the first debate. So why is the world only focusing on one?
  • Tongue tied isn't the same as what happened with Biden on the debate night. It's theoretically possible for Trump to stop lying or at least restrain himself, because it's not a physical ailment that only gets worse as time goes by. Compare 2020 debate Trump vs 2024 debate Trump and you'll see how much better he was this time. Biden on the other hand has no control over what is going on with him, and it doesn't get better with age, only goes the opposite direction. He did good during his 4 years, but he's only tarnishing his legacy by running again. He should quit while he's ahead.

  • Biden at peace if he loses to Trump: "As long as I gave it my all"
  • So I guess it's not a big deal if Trump wins? It's not an apocalypse if he wins? This is like advising to make your own coffee while the banks get bailed out. When it comes to people voting, people should vote for Biden even if he can't string a coherent sentence because Trump is the absolute biggest threat to democracy, but when it comes to Biden stepping down, it's okay if he loses to Trump as long as he gives his best.

    Just finished watching Beekeeper. Am I the only one to think the end of the movie was pretty much a ripoff of Terminal List??

    I wasn't very impressed with the rest of the movie either. It was too Baba Yaga and unbelievable to me. What did you think?

    Watched Godzilla Minus One and loved how it was more an emotional drama and less a monster movie. What are your thoughts on the movie?

    Finally playing fallout 4 with mods, and it's really fun (help I'm not getting enough sleep)

    My major gripe with fo4 was always that you had to micromanage your inventory, and it was mentally taxing to me to have to constantly bring my inventory under the limit. I pretty much gave up on the game for the past 5 years, and just recently tried the game again, this time with mods. The game is super fun now! Why game devs implement inventory management, I don't know. May be it's fun for everybody else, but I absolutely hate it.

    My 2nd grade daughter has tested Highly Academically and Intellectually Gifted (HAG in NC). What do I do? Please advice.

    We didn’t grow up in the US, so we don’t really know much about the gifted programs. She has scored 99 in CogAT, and 96.5 in ITBS, so she qualifies to the HAG program in NC. We can either switch to a different school that has the HAG curriculum, or keep her in the current school under the next lower level curriculum (AIG). The school says their AIG program is excellent, and that many HAG students have opted to stay in the school’s AIG program.

    I want to do what is best for her social, emotional, and academic growth, so please share your experience/horror stories/success stories with the gifted programs, and your advice on which one to choose.

    She's an only child and a bit naive, if that matters.
