FanciestPants, to politics in Man with carload of weapons and ‘hit list’ that included Biden, Obama and Clinton gets years in prison

Is a low IQ correlated to a person’s propensity to commit violent acts? As a person with low IQ, I don’t feel like prison is either less of a deterent from committing crimes, or less likely to be a reforming experience, but I’ve never been to prison and recognize that my impressions would only be an anecdote and not something to draw conclusion from.

FanciestPants, to politics in Let’s Talk About Trump’s Gibberish | Rambling about shark electrocutions is not normal.

Why would I even need to electrocute the shark when they’re going to naturally be repelled by all this bleach I have flowing through my veins?

FanciestPants, to politics in Biden Administration Tightens Mileage Standards to Buoy E.V.s | The new rule requires automakers to achieve an average of 65 miles per gallon across all models by 2031.

As a pedestrian that has been hit twice, I will confirm that getting hit by a GMC Yukon was a worse experience than getting hit by a Toyota Tercel.

FanciestPants, to politics in Kristi Noem killed her pet dog, "Cricket," after the animal misbehaved on a hunting trip, she says

I’m not sure I understand the logic of her even telling this story. So like if she finds herself unable to “train” a disobedient state judiciary or something, is she saying that this is her plan B?

FanciestPants, to politics in Trump Wants to Jail His Opponents and Nobody Seems to Care

It is a bit destabilizing when you find yourself included in one of the many broad groups that he wants to jail, or that he hopes burn in hell, etc. Then you see his sycophants cheering these statements and realize how unsafe you are among your neighbors.

FanciestPants, to politics in Hillary Clinton to voters upset over Biden-Trump choice: ‘Get over yourself’

The people had the opportunity to choose during the primary whether they wanted to vote for someone else who holds mostly similar views (e.g. the same political party) to their own, or the person currently doing the job. There weren’t a lot of people from the same political party that offered themselves up as challengers to the person currently doing the job, for a variety of reasons. Our system heavily favors the person currently doing the job in our primary elections, but challenges have been made before, just not this time.

FanciestPants, to retrogaming in Final Fantasy VII (PS1) - Aerith's funeral

That used to bother me a bit too, but then i figured if he’s strong enough to do a sweet one arm pull-up while carrying Tifa in the other to pull them back into the Highwind when she nearly falls out, then he’s probably strong enough to dolphin kick holding himself halfway out of the water looking completely motionless.

FanciestPants, to lemmyshitpost in Low Effort System of a Down Meme

I didn’t remember the mushroom people reference until I started singing the song in my head, and then lol

FanciestPants, to politics in The Biden Campaign Is Quietly Preparing a Trump Ambush

I definitely appreciate the cheats around paywalls and mostly avoid pay walled sites myself, but I do occasionally hope that there are enough patrons of the people reporting the news to ensure that we’re not just seeing the stories that one or two rich-ass benefactors (exagerated of course) are paying to see on their platforms.

FanciestPants, to politics in Team Biden Roasts 'Feeble, Confused, Tired' Trump After Unhinged Presser

The comment seems more intended to push voters away from Biden and toward an RFK option than convincing anyone to vote for Trump. It’s stupid and easy to attack back, but we also need to be careful about what the strategy is.

FanciestPants, to politics in Letitia James can target any Donald Trump assets "across the world": Lawyer

Just “across the world”? So if he suddenly converts all his holdings to starregistry.com certificates then it’s untouchable. Check mate.

FanciestPants, to world in 'Everyone in the World Needs to See This': Footage Shows IDF Drone Killing Gazans

Possible unpopular take, but suddenly cutting off support for Israel may be evaluated as the path that results in far more blood. Because of Bibi’s absolute shit response, there’s a good possibility that many groups in the region (Hezbolah, Iran, etc.) are standing quite ready to exterminate Israel and all of its roughly 9.3 million residents (2021 numbers). While the US cutting off support may be a short term solution that a lot of people could agree with, Bibi has made clear that he is willing to play chicken with the entire population of Israel, and so if the aid stops and the possible invasion from the regional players starts up, then the US has to decide whether to let a “former” ally get exterminated, or get involved at that point when many more actors could be involved in the conflict.

FanciestPants, to politics in Trump claims he has $500 million in cash, undercutting lawyers' claims on bond money

Saudi bros just bought an incredible pair of $500million gold sneakers.

FanciestPants, to politics in Mike Johnson 'blindsided' by abrupt departure that could end Lauren Boebert's career

The dude has a more conservative voting record than the average house republican according to the heritage foundation. That voting record suggests he’s a believer in conservative governing even if he thinks his party is dysfunctional as shit. I couldn’t see Bernie Sanders voting with Republicans just to try to get democrats to get their shit together.

FanciestPants, to politics in What Idiot Backed Trump’s Bond in E. Jean Carroll Trial? This One.

I don’t typically consider myself wealthy, but I’ll be canceling the policy that I have with them tomorrow. This just seems like really poor judgment, and I don’t trust that they’re managing their finances well enough to honor their policies.
