Not sure if I'm not getting something or you're not getting something, but it doesn't seem like a non-sequitur. The idea is that if the DNC chooses its candidates, it can force Biden to step down by pressuring him, forcing him to take the route of "heroically stepping down" (publicly) return2ozma predicts will happen.

Now I don't think it's likely because Biden seems as establishment as it gets, but saying that the DNC chooses who wins the primary is not a non-sequitur in that scenario.

This chart doesn't really do it for me because the definitions of Neutral and Radical don't align well with each other/the Purist definition.

Yeah, agreed, but to be fair all of this is no longer criticism about why they didn't use the metric system and actually acknowledges that people need visualisation sometimes.

But I know what one looks like, and I go to the zoo fairly regularly. I don't know what a 1500kg weight looks like, because even for the things which are 1500kg, it's not normally its defining characteristic.

To be fair, I actually find it more difficult to visualise 1500kg than a rhino (I just don't normally interact with things on that scale), so it does help me in terms of knowing how big the satellite roughly is.

Chanced upon this community and saw most of the posts were from one person (kudos!) - thought I'd share my dice from the recent Ember Forge kickstarter. These are their Yggdrasil (top) and Atlantean (bottom) dice.

What originally drew them to me were the Atlantean dice, with runes that really reminded me of High Speech in Mage the Awakening. While I originally just wanted to get a set of Atlantean D10s, I just kept thinking "what's a little bit more" and eventually sprung for both sets.

They roll nicely but I haven't had as much occasion to use them yet as I'd like :) They join all my other sets of Kickstarter dice that are too cool to casually bring around.

I don't know much about how it works, but will Elon "switch it off" the same way that he prevented Starlink from being used by Ukraine in Crimea? If he has the capability to do so but does not choose to do so, that seems a red flag.

Again, you're assuming the people criticising Biden for being old are Trump supporters.

The blind polarisation in American politics is getting really bad.

I don't think Trump supporters have a monopoly on being critical of Biden...

Imagine if the last thing we saw before colliding with another planet was another alien race on that planet looking hopelessly right back at us.

I thought it was his tail...
