There's a famous mistake in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope where Han Solo claims that the Millennium Falcon made the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs.

But actually, it should be "fewer".

for starters you were wrong about "how to win an election"

don’t forget to destroy your clocks tonight, walk away from your mortgage, just start driving, you’re free

it's because fascists do not threaten capital, but socialists do, and liberals looooooooooooove capitalism

therefore liberals will always side with fascism over socialism

Take up arms against the government if you want but its not the government's job to ensure you have access to the weapons and when the government does ensure that access, the downstream effects on the populace (suicide, DV, mass shootings) are myriad.

"The government needs to let us have guns in case we need guns to violently overthrow the government" remains one of the dumbest arguments I've ever heard as though armed revolution would be legal if not for those dang gun restrictions.

I will not mourn soldiers over civilians.

This is the compromise position. Personally I think they should walk off a stage into a giant shredder.

This was literally the funniest thing I ever wrote and you had to just come in and effortlessly top it...

Whoa, new LEGO Pokemon set lets you give Pikachu bottom surgery!

Ohhhhhhh the fact that these are taking place on a holodeck answers so many (completely unimportant) questions I had about what was actually happening in these things.

Nominative Determinism

my favourite DragonForce song

The strategy was basically "let's give the republicans everything they want on immigration so that when they vote against it we can claim they're not serious on the subject". It was a betrayal of the base and was one of many areas where the Dems failed to signal how they would be different.

Okay but the bipartisan bill was bad and catered to the worst policies of the republicans in order to sway them over. It's good that it failed, it was cruel and racist and maintained the worse excesses of the first Trump admin.

i guess i just also believe that if civilization collapsed we would rebuild it

Do you want the second ability to work if you don't control any Balloons? As written, it will. If you don't want this "If you do" should be "If you sacrifice one or more permanents in this way", *or* you could require sacrificing only a single Balloon instead of all of them.

I suggest forcing the target on the first ability to be non-legendary.

Flavour-wise, it might make sense for Balloons to have flying.

Do you intend for the token to stop being an enchantment? If not, you'll want "except it's a 1/1 Balloon creature in addition to its other types"

"Knight" and "Creature" should be capitalized in the name and type line.

"Balloon" should be capitalized throughout.

"First Strike" and "Target" should _not_ be capitalized.

Any references to Ruby by name should be "this creature".

"balloon permanents" should just be "Balloons".

Canada has an official opposition

Jellico is the most competent captain we ever see in the entire franchise.

it wasn't a complaint about your post being unclear, it was a not-entirely-literal lamentation about how the world is shit right now

Idk if it's the most "important" but Bush v Gore is certainly the most _foundational_

More planet names should lend themselves to suggestive headlines, frankly

You think "the online left" is unhinged, dog please talk to an independent voter IRL. They want universal healthcare and abolish taxes. They want to dissolve the coast guard. They want to rename the army the coast guard. They want their alien implants removed, and they also want more alien implants

I do sorta appreciate that the answer to "what if it gets the question wrong" is "well you could always just do it yourself"

TONS OF SLEEP FOR (sic guitar riff) BROOKLYN!

Thanks :) The main thing I was wondering was why it wouldn't be just as likely to yell the n-word at any white presenter. I think your answer makes that make sense.
