With this character's death, the thread of prophecy is severed. Restore a saved game to restore the weave of fate, or persist in the doomed world you have created.

That sounds like an awesome gig for 99% of the time and an absolute bitch and a half the 1% of the time you're needed.

Really, it was a nice idea but failed when subject to bad actors.

God, if that isn't just the story of our fuckin' lives...

but you'll be waiting a long time if you're sitting around hoping people become less dumb, selfish and would cut off their nose to spite their face

This wouldn't even be a problem if Republican leadership hadn't been laser-focused on destroying the American public education system for decades. Americans as a group are stupid, and it's on purpose, engineered by Republicans.

Anyone who says that phrase in my presence at any point for the rest of my life is getting punched right in the mouth.

[...] cost the Wall-Street class anything significant...

And herein is your problem. The Wall-Street class is the most influential voting bloc in America. If you don't bow to them, you don't even make it onto the ballot, let alone into the oval office. The only way it is possible to get around this, in modern America, would be if you acted like you were going to play ball with Wall Street up until you're sworn into office, and then pull the most epic bait and switch of all time on them.

To be clear, I don't expect this from Harris. But if she were going to do it, exactly what she's doing now would be the way you accomplish that. Let the megadonors believe that you're on their side until you reach a point where they can't stop you.

He's preaching to an audience that genuinely believes that gay people are gay because they have demons inside them. Logic and reason have left this conversation many, many moons ago.

Hmm, actually, that's a pretty solid point. I missed that detail. Thanks for pointing that out.

Then you want to be upset with the Republican held House of Representatives who drafted a bill to prevent this when Biden tried to do it the first time, explicitly going against established US law and also illegally withholding salary from any government official who tries to challenge it.

Here's the bill which has already passed in the House, voted Yea by 208 Republicans (3 nay, 6 abstaining) and voted Nay by 184 Democrats (16 Yea, 13 abstain).

Here's the vote tally if you'd like to write some letters about it to your local representatives.

I personally know at least three people that would also just adopt the raccoon if they came up to the door
