Because if you tell a conservative this line they're way more likely to do it.

I'm concerned this is more poignant in 10+ years than now as our lives increasingly depend on the algorithms favor.

It's a missed opportunity for the 2 things to finally line up.

You're correct, so sorry! One word change and that became I-Had-A-Stroke material.

One of these felons is electable, as she has only done* what a bunch of congress has. She'll fit right in!

I always hated the "convenient helplessness" of these scenes.

Approval Voting seems to just dilute your vote the more candidates you vote for. Candidates will tell people people to only place one vote. What a silly system.

You're right, best deliberate about which one is best instead.

Experimentation? New Zealand, Ireland and Australia already stage elections using forms of RCV.

Tress of the Emerald Sea - Brandon Sanderson (www.goodreads.com)
 

Though some of you might already be familiar with the Cosmere, to those who aren't I think this would be a fantastic introduction, if you like fantasy.

To give you an idea of the type of book: in the post script the author mentions that it's heavily inspired by the Princess Bride, but what if instead of assuming Wesley dead she had gone to find him?

It's also amazing is because it's from Hoid's perspective, also known as the aptly named Wit. Meaning it's really funny.

There's a lot of fantasy books I've read and loved, from short stories to epics, but I'll now compare them all to Tress.

Slomo and the Story of Inner Ear Joy (kbin.social)
 

The other thread about going on the swings as an adult reminded me of a story I want to share.

Every area has "that guy" that almost everyone seems to know. In Pacific Beach his name is Slomo: https://youtu.be/Xn87-mcnoVc?si=W8vAGhOUYrS82fJo

If you don't want to watch the video the long story short is doctor was depressed, found joy in roller blading and quit his job. The real interesting part and why I'm posting is this:

He explains how the forces of acceleration in his inner ear produce a feeling of expansiveness and joy.

Always thought this was the most interesting fact. So go out and enjoy your favorite motion sport, whether it's a biking, skiing, roller blading or swinging!
