@kegill Possibly.. i mean their reluctance to reduce the defense budget is an issue. That said they could gut social programs and potentially balance it with tax cuts, so that is legit... though its an idiotic way to balance it IMO.
@freepeoplesfreepress I agree with your assessment of universedon. It is a newer instance but very well run from what I've seen from afar.
Its been great having you on QOTO along with all of the other wonderful reporters and journalists we have here.

Ehh if they have the votes thry arent a minority by definition, though i do see what you mean (since they are very slightly less than 50% in the general population and by popular vote).
They are simply voting for their agenda, blindly and without consideration for the bigger picture... just like democrats they just do it from tbe other side with different agendas.
I love a good pen and now you have me considering a pocket protector... burt I also accepted I am a nerd a long time ago :)
@kmic BURN THE WITCH!
@Baley I love smoked salmon! Looks amazing
@Baley They are probably the msaot common fish I see diving. The peacock flounder is amazing, you usually cant spot them until you get close and scare them off.
@shuttersparks Well stop that, its not fair to us people without a sense of humor!
@BethanyBlack There arent, babies are just government drones.
@shuttersparks Hailbut is just the name of the family that contains the flounder
I do seem to recall the pocket protector and tapped glasses going together for the motif most of the time... The one example im seeing int he TV show im watching right now has just the glasses though.

Some change from being bastads to non-bastards.. some change from bastards to double-bastards, some dont change at all... Overall the vast majority dont change, a rare few might swap places between a "good" person and a "bad"... overall things really dont change much for the better.. We fix some people and replace them with all new bastardy ones
@TruthSandwich @wdlindsy @shuttersparks
Let me rephrase.. they could, potentially change from being a bastard to a non-bartard, but they wont :)
@TruthSandwich @wdlindsy @shuttersparks
Yea people can change.. but they wont :)
