    It matters very little if I or any of us have faith in the republican voter base and rather it matters if the Republican leadership thinks it could matter to a significant enough portion of their base that they should avoid a shutdown.

    Also, I find the rest of your comment to be quite insightful. I do think most of the Republican leadership are still all in on Trump, however I wouldn't be surprised if there some back up plans in the works.

    I think this is absolutely the correct interpretation of this. Shutting down the government because repubs don't want to play ball weeks before an election is only likely to hurt their chances.

    Considering his rapidly deteriorating mental faculties and the fact that's he's surrounded himself with yesmen; he probably really believes that he did well in that debate.

    It's pretty clear at this point that Joe Biden is thoroughly committed to supporting Israel. And he's not running anymore, so he has no reason to change his mind.

    Sorry, just passing by on all but what does CBT mean in this context? I can think of two meanings and neither makes sense

    Greater Restoration ends a "debilitating effect" pretty sure most DMs would allow a 5th level spell to cure paralysis.

    I think it would probably require greater restoration.

    Also, regenerate would definitely work you would just have to cut his legs off first.

    That's fair. I don't think it's really that the discourse is lower quality on the niche subjects but rather that it just doesn't exist most of the time. One of the consequences of being an early adopter.

    I left reddit with the API changes. Obviously, Lemmy isn't as good as reddit in many ways. It's still young and is much, much less popular. There's not a super niche community for everything like there is on Reddit. But the people on Lemmy are so much better. And the people on Reddit were honestly a pretty significant reason why I left too. The people here are just so much better to interact with most of the time. Glad you're here.

    There's no way that's a legitimate ruling. That judge had to have been bribed or threatened.

    This passage from the article seems to support the idea that maybe there were underhanded dealings going on.

    "Karle approved Jordan’s plea deal after telling him: “I hope you feel shame, I hope you feel remorse, and I hope you never ever hurt another child.”

    While the judge reportedly said Jordan’s admitted actions left her with “no words”, she approved his plea agreement."

    The entire Dragon Age series is only $10 on steam until June 27th.

    These games are definitely worth picking up especially for $10 for the whole series.
