Unpopular opinion (largely discredited in anthropology circles): cold weather encourages resourceful behaviour and improves human cooperation. In climates where you can survive winter outdoors, homelessness is not as detrimental to continued existence. Three walls and no roof is fine in a slum in Florida, but harder to pull off in Minneapolis.

This societal coordination which is required to survive winter leads to more orderly and more socialist civilizations. Because hairless apes have no business being in that climate. So it is human ingenuity that is selected for -- and that includes development of systems of cooperation.

If I extrapolate, our space faring descendants will face much bigger hurdles, but ideally will develop even better systems to deal with it.

The premise here is that Trump loses but refuses to back down, attempting to forcibly claim victory. If Trump legitimately wins, there is a different path. Then...

Assuming multiple systematic failures occur simultaneously, including any of: actual voter fraud, fraudulent electors, congress refusing to certify, a captured supreme court acting in favour of Trump, or actual insurrection on or before Jan 6th.

I actually expect the US Military to step in. Every member is sworn to uphold the constitution. But if the constitution has been discarded, then I'd expect them to step in to restore it.

Failing that, the US likely fractures and we leave the Republic phase.

The premise is ridiculous, so I wonder: how serious does the book play out, or is it self-aware enough to lampshade things?

Very cool

Considering how well received this game was, perhaps it is more about marketing or misunderstanding the genre appeal?

I love the moo

Not as immersive but we have this little sound activated animatronic monster adjacent to the door, which typically goes off while they're yelling trick-or-treat. One little girl ran off screaming this year. One girl tried to make friends with the monster, attempting to shake its hand...

Damn. Need to wrap that whole bar in a try: except: that just silently fails. Solves all the issues and you go to another bar.
