It's a spoiler for the movie, so I'm tagging it.

moviePredestination. The story is a bit more complicated, but it's a very similar idea.

I've seen a movie where this is basically the plot.

Hiltz got the US Olympic trials record, not the American record. No one has run faster in the women's 1500 meter at any US Olympic trials.

You're right about the rest. A few non Americans have run faster and only one American has run faster, Shelby Houlihan. Houlihan is currently banned from the sport for a steroid she alleged was consumed while eating contaminated burritos. She won't be allowed to compete again until January 2025.

I'm not gonna disagree, but I will say people have basically judged the court for decades based on their decisions. I've been judging it on their decisions and their dissents. There have been non-unanimous cases for years where there have been bizarre dissents that could have changed the country if any specific president had appointed more judges.

Primaries are also weird because depending on what state you live in the election is often decided before you even get to vote. Imagine living in a state as big as California and having no impact on the primary.

If the general election can be one day maybe so can the primary.

Moats. I was kidding at first, but I'm now thinking lazy rivers are modern moats.

Hot take: that crime bill attack was always an interesting one to me.

In Hillary's election she got heavily criticized for supporting it while non-conservatives supported it, Biden wrote it, Bill Clinton signed it, Bernie Sanders voted for it. I was somewhat surprised this election when people actually remembered that Biden wrote it at all. I didn't hear much about it in 2020.

That's not an interpretation the supreme court would agree with.

That sounds like an adult with a social and/or psychological issue.

I think Reddit killed forums more than Facebook did.

I don't know if it makes you smarter, but I'd gamble you're more knowledgeable.

None of this matters though because the people who would read a dumbed down version of a book would have probably used a different shortcut if this weren't possible.
