Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?

Who cares though? It's not like the government somehow needs Fauci or ever needed him. He's mainly just been the figurehead for the government's response to COVID outside the CDC director right?

because the term you're looking for is coordinated fraud, and if you think that's the only form of fraud that can happen that's just dumb.
notice how the media and lot of politicians (on both sides) claim there was no coordinated (top down planned) or widespread (why bother when you just need to do it key areas?) fraud? and guess what, they're right. but this isn't a fucking hollywood movie where a shadowy figure gives the command and everyone everywhere gets bribed/blackmailed to do it so it can be uncovered in the final act as the real antagonist, reality is much more mundane. after 5 years of msm propaganda - and let's face it, that's what it is and the sooner people accept that we can deal with it - you didn't need any of that shit. all you needed were enough righteous retards on the right side of history in the right places willing to "save democracy" by engaging in undemocratic behavior.
this. flint and tinder is fucking magic to a caveman. it's all a matter of perspective.

How much you want to bet that if Fauci goes down the first 4-star "woman" admiral will take his place?

There's no reason to use animals for cosmetics testing, but unfortunately they do still need to be used for medical experimentation. I'm very pro-animal welfare, probably more than most here, but I also know this subject quite well. There's been a concerted effort to move away from animal models where possible in recent years, which is great, but sadly they can't totally be replaced yet. However, you're right to say that a ton of this bullshit stems from a desire for grant money rather than legitimate need. The monkey experiment getting press right now supposedly cost ~$47mil. Some extremely limited primate research is still necessary, but this particular experiment is assuredly needless and the methods used are unacceptably cruel. University researchers often find it emotionally difficult to deal with lab mice, so it's beyond fucking appalling that the government labs have people down to terrify lobotomized primates.

Saw this on the road, got a good chuckle out of it
I saw Joe Biden at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, “Oh, like you’re doing this now?”
I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen frozen ice creams in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

That would be a demotion considering that person is 2nd in line of a US Department while Fauci is some smuck that was given far too much attention than he ever deserved.

All of the issues that currently prevent FTL come from assuming that there is no universal reference frame, which all emerges from Einstein's theory of relativity. So far, observations seems to bear out relativity, but doesn't necessarily mean it's the final form for cosmology. Newtonian physics can also explain just about everything we observe in the universe, bar a few edge cases that prompted Einstein to think about relativity in the first place. Now we're starting to observe edge cases where the current standard model falls down, largely to do with the motion of distant objects and the rotational velocity curve of galaxies (how fast objects orbit in a galaxy vs how far they are from the centre - it doesn't tail off fast enough), to which the current answer is "dark matter"; a mathematical invention to explain the inexplicable. These particular edge cases are only edge cases because of assumptions drawn from relativity regarding things like the speed of gravity and the relationship between matter and energy.
Right now, a halo of some sort of dark matter is orbiting around Joe Biden's head and that's why he sounds like a mush-mouthed idiot. He actually speaks clearly, but his voice is muffled and his eyesight is restricted by the undetectable, unobservable haze of dark matter obstructing his face. It's also why he looks like he's melting. The extra gravity is trying to tear him down and is probably caused by a dense cloud of invisible republicans.

All travel is technically time travel as your relative time depends on your speed. Going on an around the moon cruise slows down your time compared to the reference on Earth by a few minutes.
It is also possible to appear exceeding the speed of light with specific space-time conditions between the reference point of observation and the moving object.
We don’t know how to create these conditions artificially to enable interstellar travel, but I think we have observed such effects in the sky.

fucking space magic!
tbh if we ever encountered it I expected we to blow ourselves up (with or without it) way before we understand what actually is and how it works...

Probably. It'd look pretty, though.

Polls for today:
Rather humorously, there is a bot account that’s posted a copy/pasted cope in the comments of both tweets. I thought that was a Republican only thing though?

I cannot fathom the sheer damage of a small projectile launched at the speed of light towards an object, assuming it would survive the experience long enough to hit it's target. It'd probably be how we'd make planet-cracker style weaponry.

There's a reason that communities of people who talk and theorycraft about future space options generally agree with the Adage that "There is no such thing as an unarmed spaceship". FTL or not, the Mass and Delta-V associated with being able to travel the stars means you can put a cold war era nuclear exchange to shame if you really wanted to.
