Only tangentially related, I wonder how much easier cases are to learn if you're coming at them from another language with cases?

There's really no way to protect the people from themselves in a democracy, tbh
There's problems in the GOP, the media, and the Democratic establishment (in that order), but the fundamental problem is the moral rot in a citizenry that doesn't immediately reject a candidate like Trump

Greene could probably get a lot of Republicans to turn on Trump over Epstein, if she wanted to. It'd be a real crossing the Rubicon moment, but I think she has good odds tbh

Adding to this, "what happens to the GOP after Trump" has always been a question without a good answer, but it's becoming more and more pressing as Grandpa sunsets more and more. Comparing videos of him today to 2016 is legitimately shocking

Could be, it was a COVID era experiment, so I don't remember the details too well. I'm very happy with my slow cooker beans, but I'll keep that in mind if I ever need beans in a hurry lol
