The same one you know from that other (formerly) Blue app "Why not be bolder if the political price is likely to be the same?"

TBF I don't think that ad would've had that reaction if it wasn't for the times that the US is in

I need to stop underestimating myself more smh

I sent in an essay which I thought was absolutely awful, not a lot of sources, poor analysis etc etc

Turns out, actually no. It's a great essay and I got 65% on it (a 2:1, the second highest grade in the UK uni system)

:) ?

Yea, Ghost Stories and the two episodes of "Lum the invador girl" the BBC dubbed are the only exception to that

I guess, but 2PP is done between the top two parties

And you could project a ALP-ONP 2PP if you ask respondents to rank their preferences, or you just ask a simple 2PP question for this scenario while doing the poll

Plus as we see in the UK, it's not inevitable voters swing back

Still odd they did a 2PP between ALP and L/N Coalition

Since the coalition has split in two, and importantly ONP is ahead of the coalition now (so the 2PP should be between them and ALP)

I'm going to Nintendo post again, so deal with it, but

Honestly, I think that Nintendo should allow people to share their Miis between each other (a la Miitopia)

Would rock if we were able to do that, since I know a bunch of people are going to be way more creative with the creator than I can be

Yea lmao

Unironically the BPC should do a review into them, since this is just completely nonsensical numbers

First you had the by-election poll with a sample size of *147* (INCLUDING DKs), and now they're back to these random result polls

Alison Luchs, who has worked at the National Gallery of Art for 47 years, agreed to learn Gen Z slang and make videos because she wanted to raise interest in the museumโ€™s art.

She never expected to slay. https://wapo.st/45BXc3S

Damn, it's such a good game

And yea, I like to sometimes do the 96 track challenge from MK8D if I have way too much spare time

Quick question

If you have played Mario Kart World, have you ever tried to create an "Around the world" kind of race? (ie. do a race of every single track in order, with it being from one race to another)

Honestly weird that they're not really pricing that in when it's clear that what he says, he does end up putting in place

Absolutely crazy kind of statement

I have seen less ideological analysis of Trump's invasion than on Twitter

I feel like that system would fall apart quickly

Something like List PR for electors, and exhaustive ballot in the Electoral College would work better (as it would force parties/presidential candidates to court other lists in their campaign and post-campaign, whilst preventing deadlock)

Honestly the labour tax shenanigans are absolutely stupid as fuck

They wasted all that energy, political capital, and made the whole economy panic in a "will they won't they?" way for absolutely nothing!

idiocy from top to bottom, the whole lot have to go

Labour government with 400 seats canโ€™t raise income tax to invest in public services. Someone hook up Attlee to a generator

Catholic Priests and Bishops are usually meant to stay out of the politics of their country

The fact that they're intervening here, and speaking out against what's going on in the US, is truly something interesting.
