  • It’d be nice to line up his quotes on the subject in chronological order, since it seems like the last one would be about how his infidelities were his biggest failings in life. People say a lot of stuff to rationalize their behaviour while they are still doing it. But with time and space, can put together that the problem wasn’t that other people “chose” to feel hurt about it. They will always be hurt if it came by surprise and you didn’t have consent first. Hell, even in proper polygamous relationships with as much consideration and communication as possible, it can be a challenge to not hurt anyone.














  • The machines are more easily verifiable than the paper ballots. They just can’t find anyone smart enough to verify for the republican side, not that they trust the opinions of experts even on their own payroll.

    It’s like, to all the people on their side, the machines are some scary, unknowable box that nobody understands what goes on inside them… some sort of devil magic or something. How can anyone know how to make sure the machine hasn’t been tampered with?

    In actuality, they specifically want paper ballots because the ways to tamper with them are more well known and accessible to them. The machines wouldn’t allow for it.





  • As long the player is open to whatever the DM decides their characters history is, or they have collaborated on an outline or even a detailed history the other players just don’t know about, that is all fine and can be really fun for everyone.

    If they are doing it with no heads up and are not going to play along with whatever the DM decides happened in their past, then no. But when it comes to DnD, I normally let stuff play out and only stop play if something is clearly going poorly, or might make other players more uncomfortable than they are willing to be. I only play with friends, so things rarely end up being anything close to the worst they theoretically could have gone, socially.
