Yeah the newer they are, the more frivolous they are

Filing for patent on a mechanic that's been in the public for 28 years already is disingenuous as fuck. Pokemon started in 1996. The throw a ball at it thing has been out there for nearly 30 years. If you have filed a patent for it in all that time... and just now choose to. That's just dumb. If they were to have applied for the patent the day that pokemon was thing in the USA... The patent would have expired 8 years ago. It's untenable to accept these patents from Nintendo.

We assume that 41.7 million women strictly adhere to the B4 movement.

You cannot make that assumption. That was the point of my post some 5-6 posts up.

Korea IS A monolith when it comes to a number of factors. Culturally Korea is the antithesis of “diverse”. My point is that America is nothing similar to Korea culturally to pull this off.

Further just because they voted for Kamala is not a marker or evidence that they would even be on board with this type of response/campaign. So your number is flawed from the get go.

And the premise is self defeating. If you're refusing to have kids and teach them your beliefs, all you'll have are kids that belong to the other party. You will effectively just breed your ideals out of existence. This is one of the primary reasons that most religions are still around, they tend to (statistically) have van loads of children.

This also ignores the fact that those who would be willing to participate in such a campaign were likely to never have or have few children. Where-as those who disagree with this type of stance are going to be the religious types that statistically have more children anyway.

So let's take your example and apply more relevant controls on it... You'd at best get maybe 30% participation. And that 30% would be most likely to only represent 0-2 children over their lifetime. I bet after accounting for that you're closer to maybe a decrease of 10-20% birthrate... and you'd simply breed your ideal out of society in a matter of a generation or two.

Once again. No. What lost the democrats the win was Kamala. Biden refusing to step down earlier so proper primaries could be done (not sure why they didn't just hold primaries ANYWAY). The democrat party proved in 2020 that nobody wanted or even like Kamala (https://www.vox.com/2019/11/20/20953284/kamala-harris-polls-2020-election or lookup any poll from 2019). Her inability to actually talk about her platform (and how she'll attain her actual goals) and answer the question being asked lost her a lot too. A hard focus on issues that were not "top of mind" for the majority of the country didn't help either. Not some conspiracy that a handful of republicans are pulling the strings everywhere. People were simply unmotivated to vote for someone who couldn't answer how she'd do any of what she claimed to want to do.

Regardless of what you think the border IS a valid problem.

Now there's some magic plan? Either they're stupid or masterminds. You can't really have it both ways. Nobody is out there convincing people that women aren't human and have no rights. Stop with your nonsense.

Yeah no. Continuing this rhetoric is exactly how the Democrats will continue to lose elections. Making vast assumptions about men and telling them they're lesser is what drove away voters for the past 4 years. The vast majority of men have no desire or whim to do any of what you claim.

Edit: Just realized the swipe typo. Corrected.

I feel like this is probably pretty effective. I feel like it should be a thing.

It isn't. They will simply import women from other countries. And this election alone proves the fact that all women are not a monolithic group. You're not going to get a majority to follow this trend.

You're moving goalposts. You claimed that we'd pay MORE (dollar on the dime). Drilling locally means supply increases considerably. Supply going up with demand staying in place means price drops, there's no reason to pay "dollar on the dime"... and doing so would actually mean price increases.

Also, most exports are of the crude for processing where we purchase the refined for use. We had a decent deal with Canada to make a boatload of oil export/import in that exact purpose. But then Biden shut down the pipeline that would have made that much more efficient.

But... That could be what it adds on. Gotta use the right tool to capture the ghost. That way identification is still relevant.

and sending out own soldiers would have given voters a continued vested interest in the war.

As a veteran... You're volunteering right?

He’ll start buying russian natural resources at a dollar on the dime

How does that make any fucking sense when he wants to drill on US land? Do you guys even think about the shit you post before you post it?

Correct. Canada and Mexico BOTH have "closed" borders and don't just accept immigrants. In Mexico you cannot get citizenship and cannot own property. Canada actively complains to our sheriffs on the northern border for letting people go over to the north.

 

So there's a fantastic site called chronolists.com... It's a bit incomplete from the dataset perspective, seems to be missing the "latest" releases (the 2022 Fantastics Beasts for example), and is limited to very particular "universes".

Is there an *arr that does this?

Automatically grab the items you have and populate playlists like "Stargate - Chronological", "Stargate - Airdate", etc...

And as items are added to your library that were missing in the "universe" it fills in the playlists. Playlistarr?
