My religion explicitly says that fetuses aren't people until their first breath. Does that mean abortions aren't murder as long as the mother is Christian?
It's the moderates and centrists that worry me. I know he had a laundry list of deal breakers. But after Jan 6th, he should have lost every sliver of support from anyone who doesn't support treason.

Close. It does carry over from last season and teams jump whomever they beat. But since the title holder missed the playoffs last season, the SB champ never got to take the title.
Here is the site that gave me the inspiration. Although they haven't updated it since week 4.
Usually the title holder will make the playoffs and it'll end up with the Super Bowl winner. But yeah, it doesn't have to.
I believe it started with the first Super Bowl winner. So the first champion. But if every team started out with a trophy (or land if you're following the imperialism maps) it will usually narrow to one owner in a season or two as good teams make the playoffs.

I never got the complaints about Manchin. He had morals and was left of everyone in the GOP ,and he was in a seat that pretty much could go any further to the left.
Fetterman can eat a bag of ducks though. He's literally just appealing to Republicans like he's about to flip.
Larry Bushart, the name in the screenshot. Ex-cop too. They said that it was a threat to shoot up a school because he quoted Trump saying to get over a school shooting and that it [obviously Trump's comment as applicable to not mourning CK, and not advocating for shooting people] was relevant today.

Bleeding heart just means that they're too caring. As in, the type to give handouts and hug trees. But I haven't heard that in forever. I think it's been switched out for socialists.
Not sure if I agree on the other two. They are definitely coopted for political gain. But I don't know that it changes the base term. When they say "woke mob", I don't hear an implication that it's disingenuous.
Virtue signaling definitely applies though.
I do find it ironic that liberals (people who just want to live their lives and not impede on others, not the politicians) give the least amount of fucks. They don't give a fuck if gays marry, but they also don't give a fuck if they're not allowed to (assuming it doesn't impact them).
And that's why they blame teachers for guilting kids when teaching history. Because they told their kids that it's core to their identity.
But also, if they admit that their great, great, grandpa fought to take away their state right to choose whether rich assholes could own other people (also giving them an unfair advantage over poorer farmers), they'd have to admit that their ancestry was being really fucking stupid tools.
I'm worried that if someone doesn't like my thoughts on certain individuals, they could go to my employer and get me fired or targeted.
ABC is a Democrat funding organization and they suspended him for (accurately) saying that the right was trying to find someone to blame before having all the facts and then showing an unedited clip of Trump.
If that's the bar, we're all fucked. So yeah, I took it VERY FUCKING PERSONALLY that I could be fired for accurately describing current events like people being killed, assaulted, or tortured because it's considered inflammatory. In addition to that, network TV is about to get a lot more right-wing and a lot less honest for the sake of centrism. So I want people with an audience to be able to tell the truth about invasions in our own damn country.
The response has been the demand free speech and, for me, it has been a rare bright spot recently.

What hasn't been working? Giving talking space to right wing extremists and withholding context instead of unbridled information due to fears of being considered partisan. But I doubt that's what they're going to be fixing.
The right-leaning news station is about to embrace right-wing tabloid journalism.
Are there any news stations that are actually unbiased and honest, even if it means they will be labeled as having liberal-bias? I have to listen to actually liberal/left biased content to get full context without sugar coating things for the sake of appearing unbiased.
I'm just going to say I think the first and third examples are just not your taste. They're not badly executed. Stranger Things had a great first season, but they really couldn't nail it after that. It's kinda the Alien issue, switching more actiony after the first installment.
The good:
Gunplay was the best of new 343's Halo games. They made the Prometheans fun to fight. Warzone was the only good thing to come out of 343's multiplayers. The lootboxes which could be earned was better than infinite's paid season passes and expensive armor cores. They also had probably the only good iconic anything from the 343 games in the Guardians. On top of that, they had the best villain of the 343 games (evil Cortana).
The bad:
They brought back Cortana after a amazing send off. The Didact never appears again despite having a teaser at the end of 4. Half the story is you playing a random Spartan chasing John for being "suspicious". The team dynamic isn't great and is leaned into. Warden Eternal SUCKS. And then he sucks again. And again. NO SPLIT SCREEN, AT ALL! No real Firefight, but none of 343's games have had real Firefight.
Anyways, infinite sucks and I wish it didn't exist. I'd rather have had a Halo 6 close out the Promethean story and do more with the Guardians.
OG Chief is explicitly the most reserved and tactical of all the Spartans. Part of the charm is that he's robotic, ironically less human-like than his AI companion. He always keeps his helmet on in the slightest danger, because he's mission first.
Not only that, the rest of the Spartans can get very chatty and personal. They could have resold the story with some changes. Have a team find Halo instead of just him. Show Reach. Cover UNSC Circumference. Have Chief be Chief.
He can take it off, actually. He does so at the very end of Halo Combat Evolved. And he gets a new set of armor in Halo 2. I think at the end of 5 you even see his eyes.
But he doesn't take it off for the entirety of the events on Halo. None of the downtime. Because the mission is still active until his escape. It makes uncomfortable to be out of his armor.
Compare that with most of Noble 6, in some cases to their detriment.
I'm not aware of any models like that. At the end of CE, Chief takes it off himself. It might be because in some of the later games they show them using a machine to remove the armor. But I think that's more for convenience since the armor is heavy AF.

And the songs will start to become unavailable to purchase over the next 9 years. I guess it's a good reminder for me to buy all the songs I want to get.
I think there's a difference between unavailable and limited availability.
There are some old games that may never come back. In many cases, there's no agreed owner. Imagine if something became public domain after a short period of no use (5 years, 10 years maybe).
It absolutely isn't a legal defense. You're right.
I'm saying it should be legal. Starting now, since digital is a standard. Nintendo needs to put it out or let people share it. They can have 10 years (or the highest of 5 years from now/10 years from when it was last available). Something like that.
The TV movie standard of everything being available should be the video game standard.
Thanks! I actually just bought one of the those that are delisting soon a couple nights ago. So that makes me feel better. I'll have to go through this first list tonight.
