There’d still be a de facto distant restriction. As well as a job restriction

You still gotta go to DC to be able to vote. Which also means you have to be able to afford a place to live in DC

More importantly, how many people do you think are both willing and able to put their chosen career on hold for 2-6 years just because they get told they have to go do something else

I suspect most people would refuse

Worth noting Athenian citizens were only about 10% of the population.

Of them, only maybe 1/6th could actually serve, as military or any other citizens too far away from the Ekklesia were excluded.

Also worth noting the Ekklesia was limited in voting on items presented to them by the Boule, which was basically a smaller council made up entirely of rich folks

Athenian democracy wasnt as democratic as advertised

Would this be a bad time to talk about the first music album i owned being on cassette tape…

Her reporting isn’t trolling.

The Independent running the article after the faire was closed for heat today and therefore no one is there, is next level trolling and im here for it.

It ain’t gonna be any better.

Don’t know if you live near DC, but we currently got one hell of a heat wave, something like 103 or so.

And the thing about DC is, its always fucking humid in the summer, making the heat worse (I think the “feels like” today got over 114)

This weekends gonna rain too. And for this area heat + rain is about the most miserable combination possible even with normal summer heat

They announced earlier today the public is banned from attending some of the things happening tomorrow (like the rehearsals for Saturday) because the heats not safe.

This place is likely gonna stay pretty much dead…

Genuinely curious what you mean about making running in a primary like jury duty?

Thats the thing. I didn’t.

I did spend a while near addicted to Fanaticals mystery bundles though.

But even so, those often wound up being duplicates so I didn’t get as many games as you might expect

Finally a Trump idea I fully support.

And he should try to break the record for longest Presidential Speech ever, set by William Henry Harrison at 1 hour 45 minutes.

What ever happened to that guy anyway?

Dont do that. That just incentivizes getting rid of social security so congress can keep their power till death

According to Steam, ive spent $1440 dollars over 13 years.

Thing is, I have 930 games.

And while I pride myself on only buying during sales or other massive discounts, an average of $1.54 per game seems extremely low to me.

Nor does the fact that even when factoring in my supposed savings, i would have spend only 4.76 per game if not on sale especially since I have a fair number of AAA games on the account.

So im not sure steam is tracking me accurately.
