I wish I could afford to move away from a province run by backwards hillbillies.

If New Hampshire decides he's ineligible for the primary because of his past bullshit, it'll absolutely start a domino effect of other states doing the same.

I'm not american, so I'm not sure, but doesn't that mean if he literally can't be the republican candidate if too many states say no?

I mean, yeah, he can run independent I suppose, but Trump's ego isn't just about being president. He gets off on having the GOP under his thumb. Once that goes away, even if he "wins" as an independent, would he even be able to accomplish anything?

That's just the "found at the bottom of a teenage boys sock drawer" setting. nothing to worry about.

He could never set a single foot on the campaign trail and still win the nomination by a ridiculous amount, sadly. And he knows it.

GOP voters are ridiculous.

The Crysalids

Still one of my favorites

My first thought as well.

We all know he's not nearly as wealthy as he likes to pretend, but it'd be nearly impossible to live his lifestyle without at least 200,000 in available cash.

Likely he's using his so-called "genius" business brain to intentionally Welch on the debt and snag himself a cool 90% discount on his bail.

Why pay 200 when you can pay 20

Good...good...incentivize the guy who never bothers to show up in the playoffs with a further five years of getting paid big bucks to continue not showing up in the playoffs.

And no...I'm not being sarcastic. Fuck the Leafs. I'm genuinely happy that team did something as stupid as this. Five more years of maybe barely getting into round 2. Maybe by the end of his five years they'll be out in 6 games instead of 4.

Respectfully, who cares?

Hard truth... you're not important. None of us are. No one cares enough about your opinions that they need you to "maximize your reach" by posting in multiple places. That is entirely a you problem, not an us problem.

No one is forcing you to post everything multiple times to multiple communities. You're free to choose one and post to it. if it's interesting enough, someone will likely share it to other communities. And if it isn't interesting enough, they won't. Simple as that.

that's... how... it.... works

Also, you talk as though browsing r/all on Reddit doesn't also show multiple copies of the same post sent to multiple communities. Of course it does. Declaring something the "main" community isn't going to change that anyway.

Trying to find any melanin in that crowd shot is literally the worst kind of "Where's Waldo".

Dying is the entire point of it. If it dies, it becomes infinitely more difficult for the authorities to subpoena tweet histories of certain orange pieces of shit and his cronies.

It doesn't stop them from getting that history, of course.

But the legal rigamarole of trying to get tweet history from a company that technically doesn't exist anymore (It's X, not twitter), and later on no longer even functions (servers shut down), might just delay things long enough to make a difference in the upcoming shit-show.

im not sure the term would exist if the racist term hadn’t already.

It definitely wouldn't. That's not really a term that occurs "organically" in computer language. "Rice" has nothing to do with computers, so it would have had to come from somewhere else.

Think of the movie Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift. It's used to describe unnecessary modifications to a street racer (led lights, decals, etc...) that was mockingly called "ricing" because it was prevalent in the asian street racing communities. (rice eaters...har har har...)

I thought I was the only one who cringed whenever I heard that word. But this thread is making me realize I'm not crazy.
