Don't forget the press secretary literally laughing as gay people die, until Reagan's friend Rock Hudson got HIV.

Yes, just like Trump and COVID, Reagan's some policy on HIV was "do nothing and hope people don't care".

John Wayne had to be physically restrained from beating up a Native American woman at the Academy Awards.

Yeah, it seems more the IDF is just shooting literally anything human-shaped. Aid workers, friendlies, journalists, civilians, in addition to the odd actual "guy actually shooting at us".

The current GOP and their voters really doesn't like that the death penalty is off the table for most things. Drug dealers, LGBT people, illegal immigrants, I've even heard people whining that you can't execute SHOPLIFTERS.

This is exactly what I hoped Biden's admin would do when they were challenged. "Oh no I made it an Executive Order anyway, it's happening so deal with it".

The IDF didn't kill aid workers on accident. I refuse to believe that all, or most, are accidental with the number of absolute noncombatants (journos, aid workers, etc) that have been illegally killed (killing press workers and aid workers deliberately is a war crime).

Like others have said, it's a feature, not a bug. They're not incompetent - they know who they're killing AND DON'T REALLY CARE.

They are, remember? Trump said only suckers and losers go to war.

Totally employer dependent. Some places give you sick days and want you to use them if needed, some give you them and will absolutely throw you out if you use them, some don't give you any, some people want you to use your PTO for sick time.

Pokemon Emerald? So long as I'm not the protag, life is generally OK. Aside from Team Aqua/Magma and the whole "causing disasters to expand the sea/land", I should be OK.

Exactly this. We already have enough empty dwellings between homes, apartments, condos, etc to house our unhoused population. The issue is affordability, not amount.

Ohio as well, same with Indiana.

Right? I was taught to not start fights, but if someone wants to attack me and mine, to make sure that I finish that fight. I get wanting to be the bigger person, so to speak, but at least defend yourself.
