Sexism is part of his ideology...

I wouldn't say this is 100% true. Sexism certainly exists on some level in voting patterns. Hopefully we are at the point where it is a marginal one, but I'm not sure.

Why?

Do you live in the US? Did you have political interest pre-2020? @gcreptile is right about that Iowa poll. It will be all over traditional news outlets tomorrow...

Just voted. I hope my fellow Americans do as well.

Deeply hate this.

You left out "none of the above" for want to win...

This is just incorrect.

Unfortunately, it seems as though Trump will win. Democrats take the House + Republicans take the Senate. Trump wins NC/GA/AZ. PA being a true coin flip will go Trump's way. Rest go Harris. Trump will declare victory prematurely which complicates things. No true winner declared until the weekend. If seems as though they learned nothing from 2016 with unjustly selecting a party nominee. Really can't stand the idea of 4 more years under Trump. Hope I am wrong!

Seeley obit sent me into a virus spiral. Careful clicking on it.

Are you okay with: 1. Not having the newest games 2. Slowly depreciating online play 3. Need for a new console within 5-6 years If so, get the PS4. I've just recently upgraded from an Xbox 360 to the Xbox One. It took them killing the online functionality for that to happen. I've been perfectly happy with my choice, especially because I can use physical media for my games. Realize though, as I have, that by 2030 (hopefully not before) PS4/Xbox One will be killed off.

Interesting word choice.

Dropping Fritzl feels like a Kacyznski situation. They put him on the list, he will likely die within 2-3 years. Why bother taking him off now?

Of all your takes, this isn't your worst one. I've been wondering what the point of the current UN structure is more and more over the years...

You are legally allowed to have someone help you vote when incapacitated. There are guidelines, but basically you just tell them what box to check for you.

It should be noted that he found out over a year ago and announced his diagnosis after Brett Favre went public. In addition, he has around 2-10 years left with the outlook leaning towards shorter than longer. This is a routine reminder that there are likely many older NFL players with serious health issues.

His family released a statement saying it was pancreatic cancer. He died a day before his 71st birthday.

At least the universe is attempting to counter Dame Smith...

RIP. Sad day.

He's a pretty well known person in the USA...unless you are young or under a rock.

Rules: *Aired in the context of this pool, means TV/Streaming* A. You must pick 3 cast members for submission, with 2 subs. - If a cast member + sub dies before game start, I will allow a replacement B. Any person selected must have a IMDB or English Wikipedia page created by the time of game start. C. Any TV Show selected must have at least 10 half-hour episodes or 5 full hour episodes created from start to finish (that aired*). D. Franchise TV Show's will be considered separate. For example, Star Trek TNG vs D9. E. The cast of your show must have at least 5 living verified members by your submission. - If a cast member dies before game start, knowingly or not, thus bringing the number below 5. An exception will be made. F. Whoever's picks die first, wins! G. The cast member selected must appear in at least two separate episodes in the show (that aired*)! H. A plan for a tie-breaker is in place, it involves the overall age of the 3 cast members selected. Whoever has the youngest average age, wins. I. You MUST submit your team/show via PM, otherwise your submission is not counted J. If 2 people submit the same trio of names, but for different shows, I will honor the first person who submits it - The other person will be required to use their sub, but I will allow them to choose who to swap out. K. A QO will be very lax this game, I'll accept nearly anything. L. All shows used in the previous round are out of bounds (though could be reintroduced in the subsequent round). Winning shows will go into the Hall of Fame and are out of bounds in perpetuity. A show is not out of bounds if two or more players selected it in the previous round, thus eliminating it from said round. Genres of shows not allowed: Sports, Infomercials, or News Shows. My Twist! As this website has brought some of the most informed deadpoolers around, I want to make it a bit harder. If any user picks a show, which is then picked by another, that show is eliminated from the game. Essentially this means you take a risk in submission, as any show you pick could be scrapped if someone else is likeminded. It also means it would be wise to have a back-up! Do you take a risk in picking a popular show, thinking others will be scared? Do you pick something unique knowing you have no competition on it?
