The premise of the meme is that God exists and can be asked questions.

A cubic meter is a thousand liters, Which seems to be a lot of water to use in a 12 hour period, statistics I found point at an average water consumption of 100 to 130 liters per day, so a regular consumer would never even get close to the point where it doubles, and therefore would be unaffected. So why do you think this would hurt poor people?

When should the counter reset?

Yes

You can go there right now and check. I personally haven’t heard of Maga.place before finding this thread, but the name sounds off-putting. I’ll take a closer look though.

Edit: It appears to be an instance run by some weird right-wing guy.

A shutdown means that the government is insolvent, though. At some point, the funds will run dry without borrowing more. A default would likely send the US and world economy into a recession. Though could be that Trump will just bypass congress to borrow more money anyway.

Thanks for your reply.

They’re the ones selling shovels in this gold rush, though.

Or a Bethesda style creation club is coming.

Which generations did your research cover besides boomers? Did you cover the ones that came before boomers? I’m asking because the silent generation (1928-45) are already getting rare due to age, potentially requiring different methodology, and it could be that the difference in attitude you observed could be a temporal thing (Everyone older than t thinks one way, and those younger think another way).

I thought the government was shut down?

The poorest billionaire could give away 90% of their fortune, and still earn more a year through interest on the remaining wealth than a normal person will in their entire life.

So no.

Whoever’s in charge needs to keep it working and will generally take the blame when it doesn’t. Even if they don’t take the blame, they’ll be expected to fix it, and will get blamed when things don’t get fixed.

Cyberpunk 2077, overheard two NPCs sharing a joke:

What does a corpo say before he offs himself?

Well, I was looking at the election results in the Soviet Union. Here’s the result from 1946:

Now, these numbers seem sort of odd. Like, it’s a very good result for Bloc of Communists and Non-partisans, but a result this good seems to be impossible in a free election. So I’m wondering, am I missing something?

I don’t know whether you’re reading this, but my idea was poorly thought out.

Yeah. My idea was the poorly thought out.

Ah, Momo.

Ah, my little 📦 🧠! Last time we met, you wanted to show me proof that soviet union elections weren’t a complete farce. Got the numbers yet?

Because back then, the fastest way to get a message from a to b was to send a guy with a 🐎.
