What do you want them to do besides increasing security?

No one wants to vindicate the guy by preemptively taking action against him for the uprisings that haven't yet occurred even if we're absolutely certain that they will in fact happen.

Biden is retiring after this term. Even though he has the power and can offer valid reason for enacting an official act against Trump I don't think he wants to be responsible for sparking any sort of conflict or be known for it after he retires. The man has done a lot already, this isn't a burden that falls squarely on his shoulders. It's our burden as a country.

Older millennials and Gen X were the ones that organized a lot of the multiplayer groups on old MMOs and other multiplayer games. In a lot of communities they're the ones that seem to reel the most whenever games make changes that break up content to make it cooperation less encouraged.

As a younger millennial who hit 30 recently, I understand the feeling of wanting to step away from multiplayer games due to toxicity. I have played games where having someone cuss at you on voice was the least of your worries due to doxxing and irl harrassment including people having their families and work places called.

Walz is what gives me hope.

Harris taking up the candidacy was great. It felt good to be listened to but the hype wore off quickly as you realized that the party itself had not changed, only the face. She's also been quietly changing her stances on some issues, shifting around center right. The Biden-Harris administration does have its own achievements but it tends to feel like the rest of the Democrat party where you're voting more so for ideals which may or may not be implemented. Walz is more than talk though and it's not like he hasn't faced some of the same hurdles that other Democrats have either.

Walz is entirely what keeps me from feeling like I'm just voting to keep Trump out right now.

A lot of people seem to be missing the point.

There is nothing wrong with sex work or having an OnlyFans. There is absolutely a lot wrong with the fact that the top athletes of our world who perform on the top athletic stage of the world are destitute to the point of having to fund themselves this way. Don't get me wrong, I don't believe anyone should have to use this as a last resort either but it's very telling of society as it currently is when these people are having to do so.

Basically yeah. He's not a dictator nor did he even do any strongarming as governor.

The bill passed through the state house of representatives with some Republican support even.

There are lawyers that operate through contingency fees but you would have to be very foolish to immediately do so as a solo practitioner. Usually a firm will handle the risk but the firm also isn't letting inexperienced attorneys handle those cases due to the risky nature of them.

The legal jobs that are at the bottom of the paygrade are usually government. Prosecution, public defense, administrative. A lot of those jobs have loan forgiveness plans and the usual government job benefits but the pay is a bit down there even compared to what you would get as a first year associate in some firms.

We need an entire legal reform but right now we really need to focus on the SC since that's where the most damning issues lie with the nation as a whole.
