Skyblivion actually has a confirmed release date in 2025 already.

Yes, hopefully in the section on how he, possibly the worst president in U.S. history, tried to destroy American democracy.

Just because that picture looks "strong" doesn't mean he'll be remembered that way.

The country when it was founded? Yeah maybe, slave labor was really important for the southern economy, but by the time that most of the country was actually being built, it was being built by union members.

a Democrat that keeps doing the same thing over and over and wondering why they keep failing

I haven't been failing though? The party is much more progressive than the era of Clinton and Carter, Sanders even running in the Democratic primary would've been unimaginable a few decades ago, let alone him almost winning to the point where corporate dems had to pull out every single trick to try and stop it.

Even with them trying to stop Bernie, he's the most popular politician, and his supporters now make up a large percentage of the Democratic supporters and activists.

Oh a Third Partyer? Have fun joining the crowd of people who have been trying for the past century. If you'd actually like to engage in good faith political analysis you would see that both parties are incredibly different than a century ago and can be changed.

The Biden administration was incredible on everything except Gaza, with Harris being even further left so far with a full endorsement of the PRO Act, there's lots to hope for with Harris.

The Oath Keepers were already planning to flee to Kentucky and start an insurgency after Jan 6th. Even random insurgencies throughout the rural U.S. or a stream of hightening terrorist attacks in an American Years of Lead could be incredibly scary and terrible for the country.

Oh yeah I mean of course we should get rid of tipped wages and just make it a normal hourly wage, but I was just trying to make the point that removing the taxes on tips isn't gonna somehow make it impossible for waitresses to retire, it's the non-hourly wage and the rest of the economy that's doing that.

Terribly absolutist of you, old chum.

Hey I still put an "almost" in there lol.

I worked for the food service industry for almost a decade and never met a waitress or waiter that declared their tips, let alone declared enough to retire on via social security.

There's almost no chance this will effect the retirement of any waitresses in the U.S.
