Talk about anything here that there isn't another specific forum for. General chit-chat between the SG regulars. The Moderators will be sad pandas if you spam... too much.

Is it possible one of us is dead but lives on through some sort of AI / algorithm / scheduled post system?

This happens mostly on Twitter or Facebook though.

I'm a little disconcerted that a missile attack is the action Trump has received the most across-the-board positive reinforcement for.

Bingo.

The RDM is very concerned about this. Seems that the Trump administration was sitting on the tried-and-true Republican strategy of waiting for something bad to happen so they could blow stuff up. For some reason, in the U.S., dramatically blowing stuff up after something bad happens causes Republican presidential popularity to skyrocket without fail. Happened with Reagan and Bush the Second, to the detriment of literally the entire world.
The big danger now is that by pseudo-competently hanging out while he lets all the retired military officials in his administration run a (literally illegal) military operation Trump will start to appear more and more like a normal Republican president, renowned as they are for their ability to hire people who tell people to kill people. People will start to ignore the massive incompetence and corruption of the administration in general, its outright malevolent immigration, budgetary and tax policies, and his approval numbers will skyrocket like a common George Bush, making reelection all-but inevitable.
The other big danger is, you know, a war.

I wonder if his strategy is to spend so much money on war that he can't afford to build a wall after all? :?
That and to justify his travel ban.

He's certainly going to use any military action as justification for his cut-everything-but-defense budget. The RDM doesn't see him trying to back out of the wall, though. Dude is married to that stupid thing.

He could still find a way to justify this on the short term.
And then ask people to vote for him again so he can promise to build it during his second term.
