I honestly don't know who you think needs to hear this. Nobody wanted Biden in the first place. Everyone knows he's too old. The people downvoting you probably did it because Biden and Trump are our only options in this election. Yeah, no shit he's too old. What the fuck are we supposed to do about it now? Once he decided to run again, that was it. It would have been nice if there had been another primary, but nobody wants to challenge a sitting president in a primary, and historically it hasn't gone well.

Would you care to expand on this? My impression is that he did what he did out of ethical concerns, and has paid a high price for it.

Whole lot of priveleged accelerationists ITT. Good thing most of them were probably never going to bother voting anyhow.

It's on image 2899, 1st session of the 39th congress on, I believe May 30, 1866.

It's sickening, the way we've screwed over the Kurds.

That's pretty great. I've known a few Captains that would probably do this. They really are the spec 4's of commissioned officers. Cool Majors are harder to find, but exist. LTC and above, good fucking luck.

Give her a break, she doesn't want a lot.

I have to assume this is part of a PR strategy wherein he claims to have been replaced by his evil twin from the mirror universe.

I like the idea that Voyager being stranded in the Delta Quadrant is playing back on Earth as a reality show, and they have to keep viewership numbers up if they ever want to make it home. Kind of like Avenue 5.

I have no idea what kind of recruiting incentives are available now, but when I enlisted in 2001, a 35k enlistment bonus was not unheard of.

Turns out that if you haven't played Starfield, there's nothing recognizable about the screenshot. Wild, I know.

This was also my exact reaction to seeing this. Like, holy shit Arkansas, my expectations were super low, but you managed to limbo under that bar with room to spare.
