Oh shit I think we finally found Lim Fao!

and I get none

Only if you're not an American or live in DC

(population 780k) gets two. The 4.7M people in Harris County get none. That is a poor design

Again the people in Harris county get 2 senators as their state senators represent them. And, again, senators do not represent based on population as that is the job of the house

Senators are far more powerful than representatives

Entirely irrelevant as they represent different things. Your representatives represent a portion of your population while your senators represent your state as a whole. The entire point of separating the state and population representation is to allow more perspectives when legislating: the house gives a perspective from closer to the people, the senate from a broader view

Again, it seems you fundamentally don't understand the split between house and Senate, why it exists and what it does to our governing system

Land doesn't have rights

I agree, but the point is to have a section of the government where the 50 disparate governments that make up our union have equal say. This tends to get simplified to "land gets 2 votes" because the other part of Congress is population based

Where is their representation

In the house, as I said already. Also, their 2 senators are part of their representation, they're still part of the state

Why do the Dakotas (4 senators for virtually no population) get more political power than California or Texas?

Because the house has a limit on members. The senate is literally equal by design

Your issue seems to be a lack of understanding of how our legislative branch works because your complaints are all root issues of the House of Representatives and not the senate

I don't blame the MD tbh, if I had to try and make Starfield worth buying I'd fucking quit

Fire Emil and you'll be on a good start to un-fucking yourselves, Bethesda

That's the point of the Senate: land gets equal votes

The house is for population, but we fucked it by capping the total number of reps you can have there

stares at Titanfall 2 community

That and so many are blatantly cheating that it's not even funny

Oh, and the connections randomly deciding which team gets good ping. Sure, Respawn, I go 5:20 against a team and in the next match against the exact same team I go 32:4, completely normal behaviour from your game

It's been done before

I saw a guy wearing an SS uniform but the armband was a rainbow and the SS insignias were all 2 dildos arranged in a 69 pattern once. Probably some more details but that's what I remember after all these years

This was at a gay pride parade before it was federally legalized here and if I recall right he said it was a joke on how many people thought he gay agenda was coming for them

Dude looked good

There are certain scenarios where it's not an urge to fight, it's a necessity. Be a victim, or fight

Man chiming in to say: literally do not understand this statement. I have, however, used other men in this mood as a weapon against them to make them even angrier at me, which is a hilarious way to quit your job btw

My parents both openly smoked weed in front of my from a young age. I was told that as long as I was home by curfew and didn't come home in a cop car they were fine with me doing basically whatever cuz they knew I wasn't a complete moron (my dad worked in the school system and knew all the ACTUAL problem children really well, they hated me because of that so I never got to be a hoodlum lol), though my nugs WERE taken from me at 15 because "you were dumb enough to let us catch you with it" which is fair but I say they were out and bumming off of me without saying so lol

As for sex I got a quick talk about using a condom after my dad caught my GF and I doing it, but otherwise it was left mostly unsaid cuz my sex Ed wasnt trash

Nah, name and shame, 100% that will likely actually make a difference over traffic stops or photo radar.

Yeah, and when my GPS skips for a second and my speed registers as 89+mph for a few seconds as the system catches up I'll really be shamed for what a horrible person I've been!

(This isn't even a hypothetical, I regularly see my estimated speed in android auto get wonky because GPS signal isn't perfect)

The journalist DID get the correct type of gun. The title is not written by the journalist and is the only place revolver is used.

It's in the subtitle, and it was produced by the news organization alongside the article. It's part of the article as released by the journalistic news outlet, it impacts the story, and it's embarrassing

And the way you say, "what other basic facts have they misrepresented" makes it seem like you think this was an intentional thing to skew the stor

Nice assumption, don't read shit into what other people say and you won't get it wrong. My point wasn't that it's purposefully wrong at all, just that it is wrong, and an insanely basic thing to get wrong. Assume incompetence before malice, you know?

Only gun nerds will care about that detail

Lol, completely untrue. My wife has no idea about guns and her first comment was that the gun in the thumbnail wasn't a revolver and she chuckled. It's a really basic fact to fuck up

so the editor/copy person who actually wrote the headline likely did no research at all

Exactly? If the person doing the tag line for the article couldn't be bothered to not make a basic error fixed with a 2s web search: why should you trust that the person who wrote the article did, or was checked properly?

The point is that the type of gun is not important

The point is that I learned in my journalism classes that missing basic facts like this erodes trust in you as a news source, for obvious reasons. Well, obvious to people with half a brain, anyway.

Just like if the person had said the officer was wearing a cotton shirt under his uniform when it was actually a poly-cotton blend, it's not 100% accurate but it doesn't change the point.

Absolutely not the same at all. What the office wore underneath his uniform is nether relevant nor in the thumbnail next to the article title. The type of gun is both of those things

Again, it's a very simple concept: if the news source cannot be assed to do a basic fact check on their title when it's blatantly false by their own thumbnail then they cannot be trusted to fact check jack shit

Does the online work?

Got it on PS5 for a great deal and unfortunately that only works once every blue moon but it's actually a stupid fun MP skateboarding game

It's what child me never got to enjoy gdi
