I think they're appearing more sensible lately since this administration is so batshit crazy. It's one of the perks of lifetime terms with a high barrier for removal. They're not beholden to any political party or branch and they're free to rule as they see fit without fear of retribution, even the Trump appointees.

Rare Supreme Court W. Although I gotta admit I've been pleasantly surprised by this court lately.

Maybe they did, which is why they were at an event to discuss delivering more aid to Gaza.

These were young idealists trying to make a change. But the shooter didn't care about the distinction, and it seems many others don't either.

How do you know they were lobbying for genocide? For all we know they were against it and working for a peaceful solution. Not everyone who works for a government is part of the ideology. That's no better than saying every Democrat is MAGA.

Weird that you picked this specific example instead of any of the many events that involve applause.

The root of the issue is the processing of language, not the sounds themselves. "Its" and "it's" are homophones, but they're not the same word.

About a yard.

The growing power of the executive branch has been a concern since around the Great Depression and WWII. What we're seeing now is the result of that and other factors.

Most low wage jobs in the US have a mandatory drug test when you're hired

Definitely not

Watch in release order. This is the way they were written so it will make the most sense as a first time viewer.

You will hear about the Machete order if you research Star Wars viewing orders, but this is best for subsequent watches.

Aside from the OT and PT, the projects I recommend are the Clone Wars series (it's a lot though), Rogue One, Andor, and the Mandalorian.

Kenobi was meh but had some really good moments.

Watch the sequel trilogy once if you must, but I think they're pretty bad and forgettable.

Muffins I believe are denser with more fat and less sugar. Though I see what you're saying and we're all just making excuses to eat dessert for breakfast sometimes.
