I’m guessing they’re enjoying calling him a “convicted felon”.

Can’t wait to drop “Biden lost to a convicted felon” on them.

It seems weird to call someone the patron saint of something if their saintly status has nothing to do with that thing.

Oh I thought it was primarily "miracles" they performed in life, that later need to be "proven" to canonize them.

So his "miracles" were posthumous and had nothing to do with the internet?

As usual, they don't care about what's said or done, but the way it's said.

I'd say it's like a dog, but dogs have better grasp of language past just tone than they do.

I’m not denying that women experience these problems of intolerance and social pressures and I’m not denying that they’re worse and more common than what guys experience. They do and they are. But the ideas that all guys are “trained to inflict suffering” [the comment I initially replied to] and that guys never experience the same or similar problems (although to a lesser degree) [your comment] are ridiculous.

Most autistic people experience problems related to their social inabilities. I’ve been spanked for crying when my dad didn’t understand why I was crying (which in retrospect were mostly things related to me being autistic, like experiencing sensory overload) and yelled at me to stop which just made me cry more. That didn’t train me to inflict suffering on others, if anything it did the opposite. A large part of my social anxiety that developed as I got older is not wanting to bother others to any extent or make them uncomfortable.

To use as a metaphor a related topic that’s IMO more straightforward to discuss and understand due to its direct physical consequences:

how they're broken and molded for their role as opressors. The suffering of men under the patriarchy is inseparable from how they are trained to inflict suffering upon others.

I can barely talk to people and almost never leave my house, what makes me “trained to inflict suffering upon others”?

Imagine the hell if it came to that and there weren’t such rules.

The first time a president died in office, there was a controversy over whether the VP became president or was just acting president. That was relatively tame compared to the idea of not knowing who is even supposed to be president or acting president.

I see it very programmatically. And programming for edge cases can be important, especially when the stakes are so high.

Considering the 20th was passed in 1933, we actually went a long time with no established plan for that.

January 20th. March 4th was the old presidential inauguration date. But if neither could decide, then on January 20th the Speaker of the House would become acting president.

If the House is stuck but the Senate picks a VP, that VP is acting president from January 20th until the House makes a decision.

The 20th Amendment is what’s relevant here, not anything the original Constitution says.
