This anime looks so lame... But you can't judge a book by it's cover and even the description of many animes can be deceiving.

Is it actually any good? Or is it the trash anime it appears to be?

So people will learn what the Trump administration is all about!

Another commenter gave the main point but there's more: Treaties. There's a lot of treaties that only work because nearly every county signed on to them and the reason why they signed on is because of promises of aid... USAID.

Things like the Berne Convention that guarantee that countries will enforce copyright law. It's because of that treaty that it doesn't really matter where you upload pirated content... It'll still be taken down because all these countries (with Internet) signed on.

If there's nothing like USAID to help these countries they will likely pull out of the Berne Convention and other treaties and start pirating (and selling) content from other countries like the US.

Free movies from wherever for all citizens! Pirate anything and everything! Use our country's YouTube and TikTok equivalents and you'll never have to worry about your content being taken down!

There's other things like not developing weapons of mass destruction, not working with our enemies, providing for the safety of our citizens that visit, etc that will all likely go away along with USAID.

Honeysuckle? Lame. Depending on your location plant something that'll blow people's minds like pumpkin!

Yes: If you train your pumpkin vine up the arbor it'll grow pumpkins in the air and the vine will remain strong enough to support the heavy fruit! Though, that arbor might not be up to the weight requirement 😁

Another great option is kiwi. It requires cold weather though (does it snow in your area? Perfect).

If you want to demonstrate just how ambitious/crazy you are grow horned melons! They prefer warmer/tropical climates but man are they a cool thing to grow. You'll have alien brains ready to eat in no time!

Disclaimer: Don't touch horned melon vines with your bare hands! They have little velcro-sized spines that will stick into your skin and be annoying/slightly itchy for like two weeks (ask me how I know 🤣). They're not dangerous but they're annoying enough to keep certain pests far, far away from your yard (e.g. rats).

That's a great question! Normally the Executive branch enforces such actions but that's only a convenience. The judge in question can sanction the Trump administration in any number of other ways... Such as ordering courts to freeze (or seize!) their assets.

It would be an interesting situation if the judge froze or seized cabinet members or Trump's personal assets though. It's much more likely the Judicial branch would sort of seize (financial) control over these broken agencies by appointing special administrators. They would be well within their rights to do so!

Congress doesn't like it? They need to pick a winner by impeaching one of them. Except there's a big problem with impeaching a judge for such a ruling: The next judge that comes along might continue with the previous setup or rule exactly the same way.

Then what would Congress do? They could just keep impeaching judges but it's unlikely they would be able to actually do that since they don't have a supermajority in the Senate.

My prediction: That's when the Trump administration actually starts to get the military involved and tries to sack the Senate or just attempts to assassinate a few prominent Democrats.

Except he doesn't have the broad support from the people to actually be able to get away with something like that. It would be civil war. Or more like endless insurgency.

That sort of situation would result in all his billionaire friends losing nearly all of their wealth and drastically increases the likelihood of angry mob/guillotine situations.

Then again, I wouldn't put it past them to not really think that far ahead 🤷

This actually doesn't matter too much! Because the very second a Democrat gets into the White House all the bribes that occurred during the Trump administration will be prosecuted.

Oh right! They don't plan on ever letting the voters decide Federal elections ever again!

Never mind.

Edit, since folks don't seem to get the joke: Obama's campaign slogan was "Hope"

A simple reminder of the incompetence, idiocy, and insanity that was the Trump presidency. Here's the original story, in case you forgot:

It's really hard to get SD to output something like a cat girl hugging a fox girl so I decided to learn how to use the "segment anything" extension for a1111. The first results were great!

Fox girl hugging bunny girl being hugged by cat girl

Got the trifecta: A fox girl hugging a bunny girl who was also being hugged by a cat girl.

But now I wanted to take it further: Can I get five different anime beast people's hugging? No, LOL. Now yet anyway 🤣

That's supposed to be a a fox girl, a bunny girl, a cat girl, a frog girl, and a horse girl (like Pretty Derby).

I have since learned that this "fact" isn't true... Turns out the source of that info wasn't understanding how tags work. There's actually just a lot of fanfics that include Astarion. Not necessarily for romance 🤷

It's still hilarious though 😁

 

Manufacturer wanted $25 (+shipping) for a replacement garage door opener wall switch. 13 minutes of printing + 5 minutes of soldering + two leftover Cherry MX Blue switches (that I'll be use) and the problem is solved 👍

Note: The wiring was slightly more involved than I thought... needed a resistor for the light (there's only two wires but it's got two functions: Light on/off and garage open/close.

If folks are interested I could make a much fancier PCB-based version with screw terminals and whatnot. It's a very trivial schematic.
