  • I wouldn’t mind a general vote each election of “keep or dismiss” for supreme court justices. Might want it to be a higher bar than just majority rules, like how an amendment requires 2/3s, but something more like 60% feels reasonable. So if a justice is just obviously corrupt or a piece of shit they can get removed without it being a simple “every year the majority party wipes the court” affair.

    Or maybe basic majority would be fine, I just worry about it becoming a revolving door that encouraged lobbying and shit. I just feel like there’s no ripcord for shitty justices.


  • My nerdy dad liked to tell us to “watch out for orcs!” dropping us off places. I carried on the tradition, and even though he passed a couple years ago I get to enjoy his joke since my SO and I say it to each other all the time, or variations of it. If its a water related destination I like to evolve it to “watch out for orcas!”

    We’ve been playing Baldurs Gate 3 lately so its been “watch out for mind flayers!” a couple times, but the point is just a silly reference to something we love, just to add some goofy fantasy to an otherwise normal day. I like to imagine Orcs popping up irl in goofy ways when I hear it, like one charging the car while I wait for the atm thinking its some great metal beast. Or taking all yhe ground beef at the grocery store for a “great feast!” Plus one box of twinkies. Dumb shit like that :)



  • Dorfromantic: chill satistying game about building a landscape out of tiles, and matching biomes/rivers to get more points.

    Minecraft on peaceful: I like to do weird redstone projects in creative too.

    Titanfall 2/old school shooters: its weird but I blast music and play stuff that I can do mindlessly. And for me that’s deathmatch style shooters, where there’s no objective or anything, the respawn time is short, and you just run aroind blasting stuff.

    Open world games with time wasting sidequests: So most assassins creed games, corrupted zones/trials in HZD, wandering skyrim, etc.

    Edit: forgot, Mario Kart, its just fun and silly and I don’t mind just doing dumb shit and coming in last, so long as I hit koopa troopa with all the red shells because its dumb and I’m attacking him with his own brethren!




  • I live in Idaho, the Boise area is very blue, and I honestly think we could swing the state if the mormon population could be convinced to stop supporting hateful people like trump. I’m exmormon and even though I really don’t like the church they generally teach tolerance and love, even if its “muttering about sins and shit under your breath” kind of love. Romney is a good example of mormons who have a breaking point with the modern GOP (so is my mother, who is mormon and votes blue) and I hope more reach it this election. It’s a long shot but its never impossible.
