What's hilarious is their thought process that fraud was only in states Biden won, that every state that went red 100% had no problems at all. I hope Biden starts attacking some other states results that Trump won just to fuck with Trump.

I also will state that what most would consider fraud is just mistakes done by those counting the votes or incorrectly counting them. Like maybe the vote should have been thrown out but it was counted when dealing with millions of votes this will happen. This isn't trying to keep track of a couple hundred votes in a school election or something the scale is far more massive.

Factually false. You do burn calories just blinking, yes, but not that many. I would say a fraction of the number one per blink. You would have to forcefully blink until you had an eyelid problem to burn anything worthy of talking about.

Nobody can run full-sprint for an hour. Prove me wrong. If you can, Ill show you a human with knee problems and a wheel chair in their future.

There is a lot more the body does even when sitting beyond blinking, you have a heart pumping blood, you have a brain thinking, you have a stomach processing and digesting food, etc... This is why a human needs to eat, even if you sit in one spot for 24 hours straight the body will still be doing plenty of stuff. Blinking is probably the least calorie burning thing our body does that needs to on a daily basis.

With running alone you would have to run for 18 miles give or take a bit to burn 2000 calories. Now if it is a full speed sprint then you probably burn it faster, but even the greatest sprinters on earth don't run for more than a few 100 meters in a sprint.

To say Z has no character development is a falsehood. Vegeta, Gohan and Piccolo undergo major character changes. First Vegeta was an arrogant power-hungry prick. By the end, he's swallowed his pride for the good of the universe.
Piccolo went from Demon King Piccolo's heir apparent who vowed to Kill Goku to a wise mentor for the next generation. Gohan grew up and learned how to use his anger/inner potential for his benefit. While raised the son of a fighter, he chose his own path and became a student.

It's also a falsehood to say there are no stoy arcs. Each saga has a clear beginning, middle, and climatic finish. The Freeza saga would have been a poor ending as both Gohan and Vegeta hadn't concluded their arcs. DB would be incomplete without the following.

You're free to not enjoy DBZ and to cricitize the quality of its character arcs/stories. But you're telling lies when you say they do not exist.

When Vegeta sacrifices himself to try to stop Buu it's one of the best moments in the entire show period. This is a huge development for Vegeta and it shows that he has really changed.

I agree DBZ has a ton of great moments and character development, I think Kai does a much better job with DBZ because DBZ's biggest problem is countless filler episodes and 4-5 episodes of "powering up" or "taunting", when they cut a lot of that out the show gets far better.

If you think DBZ sucks then you have no idea what a Shonen Anime is. The entire point of the genre is for the main characters to get more and more powerful to face more powerful foes.

I like Dragon Ball a lot it's a fun ride, but it's nothing like DBZ they might as well be drastically different shows. Super just picks up where DBZ ends and it does a solid job of continuing the franchise.

Meth, heroin, crack, PCP, etc, are all very destructive and easy to abuse. Even something like amphetamines needs constant doctor supervision ordinarily.

They sure are dangerous but the current plan is if you catch someone with a small amount of crack on them, they get thrown in prison for a minimum of whatever years it requires. That sure as fuck is not a plan to reduce drug use, it's basically ignoring the problem.

Treatment reduces drug use period, Portugal has been using decriminalization over a decade now and the country has had great success with it. They come down hard on dealers and those with large quantities of drugs but not random guy that gets caught with a crack pipe and a small amount of crack. Again outlawing the shit doesn't make people use it less, we tried outlawing alcohol back in the early 20th century and that went poorly, tons of people still drank alcohol they just had to get it from far less reputable sellers that charged way more for it. Not to mention deaths by alcohol went up since it was usually manufactured in very poor conditions, or the manufacturer would have less reasons to make sure it was made safely.

The difference is if someone is caught with a small amount they will not go directly to prison they will either pay a fine or can opt to go to a treatment facility.

I do think people were thrown off with how much Trump was dominating early on coupled with people thinking the early numbers included the mail in ballots, but anyone not living under a rock knew the mail in ballots would heavily favor Biden.

Trump goes out and says "Don't vote by mail!", his followers believe him and vote on election day. Biden doesn't say that so his supporters are more likely to vote by mail. This is compounded even more because of potential white supremacists and insane Trump supporters might have done something drastic on election day. Shit Trump himself mobilized the Proud Boys to stand by and stand watch at these polling places.

Since I'm not American... I know Trump has said lots of dumb things, but I don't know if he actually DID anything, like, at all.

I mean, if I check right now I know he's helping with some middle east peace talks which seems legit... and I remember something something the EPA, but that's about it off-hand

He only fired a bunch of people in positions of importance and put in far less qualified people.

About 6 months before Covid he also went into the CDC and cleaned house firing nearly everyone.

He then botched the Covid thing big time, here ignoring his advisors for months about how bad it was then once he admitted it was a problem tried to downplay the seriousness of it at all times..

He also had unmarked mercenaries go into places like Portland and haul protesters away in unmarked vehicles.

The only thing he has done that some people like is lower taxes for the rich, other than that he hasn't done jack shit to make this country better and has made it far worse in a lot of ways. Just because you don't see this shit on the news of your country doesn't mean it's not happening.

According to wikipedias page on presidential wins it looks like it's pretty even between dems and reps when it comes to popular vote vs win.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_presidential_elections_by_popular_vote_margin

it's also interesting to note that clinton had 49% of the popular vote, yet had 70% of the electoral college.

I dont think electoral college rework is a partizen issue. I don't think our election system works very well. CGP Grey had a good video about the problems with first past the post voting.

whole thing needs a rework imo.

Well the winner take all thing makes that even more lopsided, it doesn't benefit the presidential candidate to dominate any state since even if you get 90% of the votes in a state they still get all the electoral votes. If they get 50.00001% of the vote they get all the electoral votes.

I mean even if you keep the electoral college system you could make it so it's not winner take all.

There's a problem with it where its benefit is turned into a penalty.

The idea of giving the lesser loser states a smidgen more power so that they aren't ruled by LA and NY is a good idea.

Bad idea is making it so that seats are awarded on an all or nothing basis, meaning that 60% of a state votes R and 40% votes D... it counts as 100% voting R, which is definitely NOT the spirit of the college

Already they have 2 senators and states with in some cases 40+ times their population or more have 2 senators. I think that is enough power myself, 2 senators representing a population of 550k or something like that, vs. 2 senators representing nearly 40 million.

I also will point out that the election every year is decided by a handful of swing states mostly. So this is a system that really does not give small states like Wyoming more power, because their 3 electoral votes are taken for granted by the Republican party, similar to a smaller state that votes Democratic nearly every time.

Kind of a weird, forced whataboutism but you do you. In general, we know that the mail has *always* had reliability issues, which goes a lot further than something like dumping. And, up until this election, liberals had been the first people to criticize mail-in ballots and heavily used it as a whataboutism when people criticized in-person voting issues.

Literally no state has only relied on mail-in voting. And I'm not sure even one *country* has done that either. And the reliability of it is terrible, both in terms of the mail system itself and the enormous reject rate.

Wrong on both counts in Oregon all voting is 100% done by mail since 1998.

Looks like your worries of "massive fraud" because Trump keeps saying that is wrong, shit even with in-person voting I can think of 20 ways that could easily be fucked up. Trump is living in a dreamland the only reason he hates mail in voting is because the more people that vote the more likely he is to not be elected. Shit he lost the 2016 popular vote by nearly 3 million, he should be deathly afraid of more voters because he won a lot of states by a slim margin and that is how he won.
