I'm curious how many houses/apartments are unused in the US, acting as a speculative asset and if building more is even necessary.

Hey, don't rewrite history - twitter was always notoriously bad, under Elon it surely got even worse though.

This is such a weird phenomena, but also a sad one. I'm assuming she does enjoy partying with drag queens but is so ashamed about it that she decides to compensate by rallying against them, sort of like how staunch anti-gay politicians are often caught in gay acts.
Or maybe it was just some drunken lapse of her """moral beliefs""", can't really tell.

I've read The Guardian article about the situation, and what stuck out to me was this:
The US president, Joe Biden, said he was aware of Israel’s plans to launch an operation into Lebanon as he urged against such a move. “I’m more aware than you might know and I’m comfortable with them stopping,” he told reporters at the White House. “We should have a ceasefire now.”
Thank you Biden, just wag your finger and keep feeling "comfortable with them stopping", that is ought to give you some moral victory points which is all that matters (and not thousands of civilians being killed by Israel that's funded by US).

Yeah, though there's also the phenomena of older folks generally being more against change and clinging in the past more, the idea being that you have less future to look forward to (since you're closer to death than your birth) so instead you look towards the past and become nostalgic about it.

Not surprising, white nationalist movements were always there but only somewhat recently they stopped using extreme rhetoric in order to get more supporters, and it's super effective. Nowadays you have even mildly exclusionary people who wouldn't have supported white nationalists spout anti-immigration nonsense online and irl, voting for the far-right thinking they're solving some issue that doesn't really exist in reality and is massively overblown.
The world is going back to authoritarianism.

The resolutions are not likely to pass; even if they did pass the heavily pro-Israel Congress, they would likely be vetoed by President Joe Biden, who has been insistent on sending weapons to Israel with no strings attached.
Yeah, this is an absolute shame. He tried doing something similar shortly after the genocide had started, but everyone else currently in power just shut him down almost unanimously.
If politics and getting into power wasn't 90% based on your wealth and connections, maybe US could have more people like Bernie trying to actually do good rather than trying to enrich or empower themselves.

Whenever I see companies use ERP as an acronym, I can't help but wonder if they're aware of its more general meaning

Calling democrats "Blue MAGA", at least currently is a stretch and a half since there is still a sizeable difference between the parties, but yeah - current democrats are getting real close to pre-2000's republicans in everything except few policies.
As you have correctly pointed out, a lot of the American liberals are unquestionably supporting Kamala no matter what she does, and it's just so frustrating to see. People can support and vote for a party but also be critical of it much like how you can have your favorite video game and have gripes with it that you hope could have been fixed, but I guess that's taking a backseat in favour of "politics as team sports" where the only thing that matters is beating the other side.
That being said, choosing not to vote for dems because of this is stupid - even if democrats aren't going to shift back to center, it's a much better alternative for the average person (foreign or otherwise) than Trump becoming the dictator. Though I worry about the future of US politics - republicans who stay with Trump are numerous, and once he's gone then another alt-right populist is going to come, one who's even worse than Trump (while being younger and more lucid), and there is no guarantee democrats are going to have Kamala 2 to steal the momentum back or even be able to fight them.

I swear, you could have Hitler reincarnate with Himmler as vice president looking exactly the same as how they looked like in WW2 and use the exact same rhetoric, and the current undecided voters would still be equally clueless on who to vote for, assuming they're actually undecided and not "closeted conservative voter who doesn't want to look bad".

My pragmatic side is absolutely disgusted with this - why would you gift a gun to your kid while living in an urban area? It makes no practical sense other than fueling this weird American obsession with guns.
I understand giving your teen kid a hunting rifle if you live in a rural area and go hunting sometimes, but not an AR in a city - it's just asking for trouble.

The problem with difficulties is that it's much more difficult to design an AI system which you can tweak and make it smarter or dumber as opposed to just increasing damage and health values, so devs will just implement the best AI they can and leave difficulties as afterthought.
After playing a lot of games that don't even have difficulty settings, I've started to believe in the idea that difficulty selection is just outdated game design and that having a single difficulty but optional areas/content that is more difficult is the way to do it. OSRS is one of my favorite examples - everyone plays the same game and going through levelling or whatever isn't mechanically demanding. However, there are bosses and challenges (like Theatre of Blood which is an end-game raid or Inferno which is an end-game challenge) that are incredibly challenging and require weeks if not months of attempts to master and finally beat, but also are perfectly skippable and most casual players don't even bother with them.

I don't believe this would achieve anything to be honest. Consider the following: the vast majority of republicans saw Trump's policies and Project 2025, without going "hold on, this 'abolition of democracy and jailing of people who disagree with us' thing is bad!". If a Republican was actually reasonable with their morals intact, they would have hopped ship to Democratic party already or spoken out and disagreed against Trump earlier (there were a couple but they really were in a minority).
All this 'compromising' is going to achieve is giving some of Democrat power away to Republicans who might split from current MAGA, sure, but once another Trump is in the picture they will go back to them straight away, except this time it will be much worse.

Pull the lever as fast as possible and hope that the trolley doesn't have enough force to push through the pile of people you just generated.
Then continue gambling with your newfound moral superiority
