Whoops, thanks for the correction! Fuck both of them.

Yeah, I was being polite. Admirable like the innocence of a child, or maybe more like the naïveté of a child.

I promise you, your faith in the system is admirable but unfounded. POTUS literally personally requested this, SCOTUS is full of bribe-taking jokers, and Congress is half made up of spineless tools that have demonstrated over and over again that they will defend their own in the face of literally anything, including Insurrection, rape, and child trafficking.

And, again, it literally does not matter in the slightest what the courts say, they can not go back in time and undo an arrest. And courts can’t just go around ruling on random things. They need someone to bring a case to them, and cases require time, money, evidence, and cause/damages to put together. Then it takes months or years to move through the court system. Even if they could rule on whatever they want, they have no method of enforcement. That’s the executive branch’s job.

You may find SCOTUS’s ruling on the Trail of Tears and the Executive branch’s subsequent actions quite interesting. Hint: SCOTUS said no, Andrew Jackson did it anyway, no invisible force stopped any of it happening, legal or not.

They can arrest anyone for anything they want. The executive branch controls the police and has that power. If it is an illegal arrest, you can pay thousands to a lawyer and spend a few months fighting it in court, but that is only after you are arrested. There is no magic “bail” number that lets you out of jail immediately, it’s set by a judge on a case by case basis and takes a day or so to set. If you are a flight risk, as they claim is true in this case, you will not be allowed out on bail. If they really want to, they can hold you in a cell without letting you in front of a judge to get a bail set. Is it legal? No. Does it happen all of the time? Yes. Will anyone do anything about it? Never. Especially when POTUS is fully backing it.

They said Democrat reps are not allowed to leave without a 24/7 police escort. I’m sure there are cops at the door that will arrest them if they do not comply. I didn’t find anything explicitly stating that in my 3 minutes of searching, but IMO it is abundantly clear that that is the case. There was a live stream of it all happening if you really want to know the details.

Technically, the executive branch can not say what is illegal or not. However, they control the police and can order them to do whatever or arrest you for whatever. Legal, illegal, constitutional, unconstitutional, whatever. Checks and balances kick in later. You can fight the legality of an arrest in court, but that is after you’ve been arrested, booked, and publicly shamed with a mugshot and whatnot. And you’ll need to pay thousands of dollars to a lawyer to fight it, even if you are completely innocent or the arrest was completely illegal.

They assigned each Democrat rep a police escort, and the capital building has plenty of police present. It is physically enforced and the only way she’d be able to leave is to literally sign a permission slip allowing police to escort her everywhere and keep her under constant surveillance.

The Republicans are literally having goons follow their political rivals 24/7 and dictating where they are allowed to be, or must be, and when. This is not the time to hate both sides equally. Sometimes, the Nazis really are the bad guys.

Palantir is a mass surveillance company~~, not an AI company like the article suggests. They are those black cameras and solar panels you see popping up on every inch of road across the country. They track your every movement, logging license plates and car descriptions. Then they make it available to any highschool bully with a badge.~~

EDIT: Whoops, I confused them with Flock. Palantir is still a mass surveillance company that does shady stuff for the government, but they aren’t the car cameras.

Overhyping aside, I’d say that not being much different from Hollow Knight is exactly what people want. HK was amazing. If Silksong is just HK but with a different map and enemies, I’d be ecstatic.

Can a stand-alone quest play Alyx?

I saw weapons at a non-amc and heard background voices through a lot of the movie. Still not sure if that was the theater next to mine or if it’s part of the movie to make you feel insane.

Well they weren’t on the roof

What’s the difference?

Ended up petty darn close

They’re paid a salary, which is probably significantly more than what drivers are paid.
