@JuliusGoat Excellent words, something we evryone should consider, whether they voted for Biden, a man who started his political career by being pro-segregation and faught to keep segregation alive right up until it started costing him votes... or Trump, someone who was brutal on immigration (not exactly racist but I cant think of anything racist he did, maybe someone has a better example?).... Either way, most of this nation is a bit too close to supporting the wrong people it seems.

@maxkennerly Arrest Trump, arrest Hillary... arrest Obama... arrest the whole damn lot of them. They all deserve it.
@freemo You can just Google this stuff.
Michael Cohen went to jail for violating campaign finance law because it was done secretly with the purpose of influencing the election. John Edwards was prosecuted for the same thing.
If the prosecution can prove that Donald Trump directed Cohen to do that and was aware of it, he is guilty of the same crime and would presumably face similar consequences.
If she directly threatened to make it public unless he paid her, then that's blackmail.
The way these things are usually worked out is that the woman shops her story around to tabloids in a manner so that the target will learn of it. Then the tabloid buys the exclusive rights to the story and it becomes an intellectual property deal and the tabloid then works it out with the target (like selling the rights to them). That's how they usually avoid blackmail law.
That's how Trump did it with another woman, Karen McDougal. (Maybe that's where the whole "Karen" meme started?)
A similar thing happened to David Letterman a couple of decades ago. A boyfriend of his mistress wrote a screenplay about a famous TV personality who had a mistress that exactly paralleled Letterman's situation. He then tried to sell the screenplay directly to Letterman.
Letterman turned the guy into the cops rather than paying the blackmail money and the story was made public.
One small little point of clarity. They arent technically made of glass, but they are made of the same material that glass comes from (silica)
@SuperSelena64 I thought the famicom was a console that played cartridges... what console was this?
Cool congrats!
@MarkRuffalo Id consider signing, only thing I need to know is if starbucks workers would have the option to join the union or not or if they would be forced to join... As long as they have "right to work" (that is they can opt-out of the union and still be hired) I would be happy to support them.
@Pantangelini Sadly in many cities they arent legal to drive on either the road or the sidewalk, which makes them kinda useless... That seems to be the case in israel and while technically true in philly you probably get away with it
