It's too late, they already ruined Johnny Damon.

Without knowing more about their usual procedures regarding what they state is the "biggest" issue reported by those they've polled and whether they are writing the article how they normally would I cannot agree whether they are intentionally trying to normalize anything, so we'll have to agree to disagree.

It wasn't until the last bit that I could tell it was satire, and even then I'm not quite 100% sure.

The problem here is what I consider the intentional too-narrow-a-point focus that our legal system has been moved towards to make it easier to get away with things. For emergency relief the party being harmed has to ask for it. The parties asking for emergency relief are not the people being fired, therefore are not the parties being harmed. It's stupid but she has to rule based on how the law works, which is hilarious that only one side has to play by the rules but I digress. She is giving them the opening to show to the court the harm being done to specific people for her to rule differently.

Boob joke, house with a face comment or Star Wars reference, I can't decide!

Nailed it, no regrets.

On the one hand yes, I agree that's the worst part, on the other hand polling is an actual data science. Legit polling organizations don't just pull shit out of nowhere. If they say "due to the economy" they mean there is a correlation between people with a negative attitude towards Trump and people who say their biggest concern is the economy. And this makes sense because let's be honest, most Democrats already dislike him for other reasons, so the people who are just NOW changing their opinion on him are likely to be for money reasons since that's the current thing going on.

That's nothing, my kid did at least 4 times that yesterday, in Terraria.

Ug, why can't people tell new stories anymore? Everything is a reboot or a sequel. This is just the Trump story with a slightly happier ending since Bolsonaro might actually face consequences.

I've not often seen such a perfectly on the nose example of a slippery slope argument, so I guess thank you for that.
