I have frequently complained that the cat doesn't do anything useful except generate poo, and what can I do with that?

My demands to get a job are met with disdain.

Altruism is never going to be the way to get companies to do the right thing. Instead, making the wrong thing a financial liability is.

It's only new-feeling cause it's been 20-some years since we've had a democratic control of most parts of the government.

It's pretty neat, right?

There are no hard requirements for being president beyond those listed in the Constitution:

  1. Be a natural born US citizen
  2. Be at least 35 years old
  3. Have resided in the US for 14 or more years.

That's it. The framers of the Constitution presumably felt being a convicted felon would be enough for an electorate (or the electoral college, at least) to simply not vote for that person.

History will forget her.

How many people remember stupid congresspeople from 30 years ago?

Imhofe bringing a snowball to the Senate floor, this disproving climate change, for example. You and i and historians might, but average Joe on the street?

I'd look to a show like The Good Place for a perfect balance.

It absolutely matters if you haven't seen previous episodes, but each episode is still, on it's own, great.

The answer is the old chestnut,

"When you are accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression."

People like those you're responding to often see the world as a zero-sum game. If LGBTQ+ people carve out -- or in this case, demand -- representation for themselves, they believe that representation must take away "representation points" or whatever from some other group.

Frankly, Pride is the one time of year it's okay to tell these people to shut the fuck up and sit down.

Oh no.

Not undermine the legitimacy of the Court!

Those fucksticks did it themselves. Anything the Executive does to put it back on course is an improvement.

then paying off said pornstar to interfere with the election outcomes?

You forgot the most important part: Feloniously classifying those payments as "legal expenses."

There's an IDE drive in a landfill somewhere with 10BTC on it because I'm fuckwit.
