I second this. Once you know the navigation keys it’s as blazing fast as you feel in your soul like navigating pdfs SHOULD be.

They cracked the frame and THE BODY HELD THE FRAME TOGETHER.

“I live in America in 2026. How the hell do you think you’re gonna make it WORSE? Bring it on.”

Yeah. Top Gear already declared this in the Hilux episode.

… And that’s when the attack comes… Not from the front, but from the SIDES.

By the other two plushies… You didn’t even know were there

Good. Then you can vote for it when the speaker brings it to the floor.

Voice: “…they’re good!”

It is the BROODWICH.

@Grok is this true?

Oh no! The unsustainable circle jerk bubble has to leak so the entire global economy doesn’t explode. How sad.

This is GOOD news. We’re letting air out of the bubble and, hopefully, healthily redistributing it across the economy into BUSINESSES THAT DO SOMETHING WITH VALUE.

You know what? Solid point. As long as it doesn’t come at the EXPENSE of bigger fish, I’m all for it.

Even if the democrats won NOTHING else, this makes it all worth it.

Is the idea that it’s like pull starting a lawnmower? You have to do it a few times before it takes and the engine turns over?

Without the legal structure of the compact, it would become a complete mess of every legislature fighting over electoral vote allocation methods every 4 years, and it would almost certainly be the case that that would not always be a democratically desirable allocation.

Even if the compact passed, the moment one of the legislatures flips, one of the states could pass legislation to suspend or remove themselves from the compact, and we’re right back to the electoral college.

I’d love to see popular vote as our selection method too - but the interstate compact is a fragile hail mary that, while we should pursue it, is likely not proportionally durable or useful enough to justify the amount of political capital and effort it would take to make reality.

They should absolutely try, but let’s be clear - it would not work.

The moment they do it, it will trigger legal challenges from the red states, which will eventually be appealed to the Supreme Court, which, given its current conservative composition, would rule some bullshit like “The constitution intends for smaller states to have greater representation and this is an illegal end-run around that”, and then the compact is dead forever.

You only get one chance to get a ruling on its constitutionality, and you want to pull the trigger when your odds are best.
