VA is absolutely not turning red this year. I mean maybe the battleground states but Youngkin hasn’t been nearly draconian enough on voting access to prevent it from retaining its blue streak of the last 4 elections.

Which are then modulated further into a wholly unrelated right by the DC Heller decision, an INCREDIBLY modern interpretation and willful aversion of eyes to details that so called Originalists would have had to reckon with and disappoint their NRA coffer key holders

Context: read the original drafts and revisions of 2A. You can see the story of the right to found a federal army get modified after further thought (religious exemptions which are later removed) and then a bunch of specific language removed for fear of missing some crucial detail (cont.)

2A was to affirm, in the context of the articles of confederation having just been done away with, that we could form a standing army (no standing army during Shay’s Rebellion led to 2A, tested during Whiskey Rebellion).

I have an annual day of atonement where I call up friends I haven’t talked to in a while because I felt bad about not talking to them for a while because I couldn’t decide on a sufficiently clever way to say sorry for not talking to them in a while

So what did he do when Syria used chlorine based chemical weapons a year later in May of 2019? Didn’t seem like bombing worked if Al-Assad is still getting away with it?

Seconding several other voices here: if you live between 36 & 30 and the upper limit of the Mason Dixon then you’re Mid-Atlantic. Bay food, long commutes and 65/35 split of IHOP vs Waffle House concentration.

The WW1 PTS flashback moments seal it for me (ex: Sam, during a Gondorian Ranger ambush in Ithilien considering what threats of horrible machinations Sauron held over the heads of the Haradrim and their families to force them into invading Gondor)

His behavior makes sense when you go in knowing that demi-gods planted dreams in his head to steer Gondor towards action, he just looks like a jealous and petty trust fund kid without that. A loooot of missing minutia and lore that would have fleshed out the trilogy.
