Women can do all of the things that men can do, like be terrible leaders. Truly, this is a sign of the changing times.

I've seen a lot of Tories claim the moral high ground on this one. "Oh, well, the only female prime ministers have come from the Tory party." As if this shows them to be a beacon of progressiveness. They're not good by virtue of their sex. Myra Hindley was a woman too but she wasn't exactly a saint.

She looks like a man in a wig with lipstick. Get the disguise off, and it's Louis C.K.!

Ugh. California had two bad governors in a row in the form of Schwarzenegger and Brown. Hopefully, Newsom will be more progressive than Brown.

It's because people don't participate in it. The fewer people participate in the political system, the less it will be representative of the people.

Partly true but it seems councillors, regardless of their party, are particularly incompetent.

Yukona, Gualimole

First past the post voting is real and straight. Support Score Then Pairwise Elections, the fake and gay electoral system that I designed where voters score candidates before those candidates go against each other in simulated pairwise elections to find a Condorcet winner, the candidate who is able to beat all other candidates in pairwise elections. And don't support regular score voting, IRV, or STAR because they're only half-true and bisexual.

This might seem random but I am curious. Imagine you lived as a nobleman in the 18th century and you obviously don't know who would win. Would you have supported William of Orange or James VII?

IMO, the Oxford comma is pretty important for things like shopping lists, drama adding, and any other list making and detail writing basic stuff kit. (See what I did there???)

I write lists like this:

-milk

-wheaties

-bread

No commas necessary.

Over the last year and a half ive served along side amazing people and made even better memories. I miss the good days when everyone you see here right now had a fire. A fire that created something amazing, maybe not unqiue but it was our hobby, and lifestyle. We made each other complete.

The one thing I can agree on with the Pirates is that we need to abolish copyright. No one man invented any one thing alone, instead relying on the work of hundreds more who are both known and unknown to create. Also, I want to be able to legally pirate movies, TV shows, and video games because doing it legally would likely be much safer than how it works now.

Just a quick update for you guys:

I will be renovating my banners to bring them up to spec. The FIFA WC banner will congratulate the champion and the host, me. The "Motherland's Finest" banner will be reclassified to the "Siberian Alliance" and more prominently display the other members national standards. And finally, three more are in the works: A refurbished "97 Years of Glory", A tribute to all fallen troops (One for my Red Army, and one for the CoFN).
