The microwave background is like a rainbow. When you move, it appears to move. You’re always at the “center” of it.
Space and time are the same thing. Spacetime. Time travel would necessarily also by teleportation if you are traveling instantaneously through spacetime. Unless of course your travel is continuous like it is currently for all of us, just sped up, slowed down or reversed.
Also there is no objective point of reference for location in the universe, only relative points of reference. In other words, you are always some distance in some direction from some thing. But you never have objective stable coordinates relative to the universe itself. There is no “center” or other fixed point of the universe. So the earth is moving, yes, but only relative to other independent celestial bodies. And those bodies are moving, too, relative to other bodies. Their movement is always relative to a non-absolute frame of reference. No movement is objective to the universe, it’s all relative.
So it would be illogical to expect the earth to have moved X miles away in Y direction if you teleported one second into the past/future because that would presuppose that your location was objective and absolute in the universe at the point of time traveling and the earth moved relative to your absolute location. It would break known physics if that were the case, as much as time travel itself would.

That’s why I included the last bit. The law is more relevant when you are not someone too special. The higher you get, the less it matters, if only because more people have fallen for your manipulations or are cognizant of them but support them for whatever reason, and will defend you no matter what from actual justice.
Depends what you mean by “further”. It is a trait that definitely serves well in some very lucrative areas like business or politics. But it very easy to ruin other aspects of your life like your relationships, your public image, and can run you afoul of the law. In areas of work where your image is paramount, being a liar and manipulator usually only gets you so far because it’s very hard to maintain those lies and hide the manipulation under massive public scrutiny, particularly if you’re doing illegal stuff in addition to it. Of course the wealthier you are, or the more fanatical your following, the more you will have others lie and manipulate on your behalf, so… accountability can decrease that way.

Sure but there are a ton of things, genetic, environmental, dietary, neurochemical, etc. that can contribute to the development of cancer. You can do literally everything right and end up in the exact same place as someone who did all the wrong things because the causes are innumerable and many are literally unavoidable.
Would I regret my choices if I got cancer after I did all the things the studies say would increase my odds? Of course I would. Would I regret my choices if did everything “right” and still got cancer? Of course I would. But that’s because being in that position inherently biased you against your past. If I did all the wrong things I would regret that I indulged too much, and if I did all the right things I would regret that I never really indulged at all and enjoyed life fully. Either way you got shafted. You’re damned if you do, damned if you don’t.
But to me it’s better to just live intentionally but without having this constant concern about every single thing I eat, drink, or breath maybe, possibly, eventually contributing to developing cancer. Like I’m not about to start smoking, I rarely drink, I try to eat enough veggies, etc. because those things have much more tangible direct consequences that I’m mindful of, and I’m not about to eat a hotdog every day mostly because I’m a really good cook and that sounds sad as fuck. But the next time I do eat a hotdog, a salami, or a Reuben sandwich, I promise you that no part of my mind is going to be worrying that it will give me cancer. Constant dread is its own form of cancer and life’s too short and uncertain to live with that shit 24/7.
No no no, you’re all wrong. It goes Agles, Beagles, Seagulls, Deegles, Eagles, etc. We’ve proven the existence of 3 of these species already, but the search continues for these other mysterious creatures the certainly must exist. In this TED Talk, I will…

[Karen] is pejorative.
No shit, Sherlock. It’s an insult. Insults are pejorative. That’s literally the point. It doesn’t make it a slur, though. Slurs are about insulting someone for their genetic attributes, like their race or sex, or their sexuality, their nationality, or their religious or cultural identity, i.e. things that are inherent and largely unchosen about their identity. Slurs are not critiques for behaviors. “Asshole”, “Fascist”, “Bigot”, and “Karen” are insults that are about behaviors, specifically about treating others without respect, equality, or basic human decency.
“Karen” is an insult for someone who acts entitled and who treats service workers poorly or sticks their nose into others’ business and tries to police their behavior. The fact of the matter is that the majority of people that are that entitled and behave that way (in the US at least) are middle aged or elderly white women, which is where the name came from. But the term is not about insulting someone for being a middle aged or elderly white woman, is it? It’s about their behavior. Older white women aren’t the only ones that can be Karens, and most older white women do not behave like Karens.
If you cannot see the difference between insulting things you do vs things you are, you are probably very familiar with actual slurs.
Gonna be as isolated at North Korea by the end of this administration. As trusted too.
Funny because that sounds to me like the "illegals"can’t be illegal then. Sounds like they’re not subject to the law anymore.

It’s all imagined. First of all, even as a cisgender man, if I had intent to perv on women in the bathroom, the acts of invasion of privacy and assault are already illegal. If I peep into your stall, touch you, harass you (sexually or otherwise), those are already crimes. And they would be crimes if I were a cisgender woman, too, or a trans man or woman, or anything else on the rainbow. Being physically in the restroom does not inherently constitute an invasion of privacy because it is still a communal area. Nor does it inherently endanger you even if I am a man. As such, should not constitute a crime in an of itself. That is particularly true when it necessarily involves legally defining a line between gendered spaces, and that line will necessarily involve invasive investigations to even begin to figure out where on the line each person entering that space “belongs”.
That rolls into my second point, the notion that you will just “know” someone’s sex from seeing a fully clothed person alone is a joke. There are more than a few recent examples of cis women being accused of being trans women and there are many trans men that you would be requiring to use the women’s restroom that you would be absolutely certain are cis men by sight alone. Are you going to require a bouncer check ID at the door? Check out their genitals? Do a blood test? Or are we just going to police people on vibes and just absolutely hound people that do not meet your minimum requirement of “man” or “woman” (which also means the trans people that more closely resemble their cis counterparts will pass without issue, and supposedly rape everyone).
And third, there is no evidence that trans women are a danger to cis women at all, nor that any cis men are pretending to be trans women in order to gain access to bathrooms to commit crimes because… once again… they are still crimes regardless of your perceived gender. It does not help a pervert or rapist by half-assing a disguise like a cartoon character, wearing a wig and a skirt, calling yourself a “gal”, and assaulting women in the restroom. He could just as easily do that without the stupid subterfuge and it would be equally as illegal.

but in the English speaking world I’d say it’s the most unique name I’ve heard.
Probably because it actually a French surname, which is itself based on a place name in France that no longer exists… and it is not her actual given name, but something she adopted from a character in The Great Gatsby.
You do realize that the impeachment isn’t the goal, right? It’s just the first step. If you want to forcibly remove Trump while he’s still alive, you only have 2 options. 1) You need Vance and half of Trump’s cabinet to formally deem him incapable of executing the powers of the office and replacing him with Vance under the 25th amendment and then (when Trump pushes back) have 2/3rds of both houses of congress vote to agree he’s incapable. Or 2) Have a majority of the House vote to impeach him, and then have 2/3rds of he Senate vote to convict, which will result in his removal from office. Impeachment isn’t just a formal scolding. That’s called a censure. It’s an indictment of a crime that will then be tried in the Senate. In both cases of impeachment last time, the spineless Senate voted to acquit. But that doesnt mean that they won’t ever break ranks or that in voting to acquit they may lose votes as a result.
Unfortunately, he’s a clinical narcissist, so he really does genuinely have the ability to completely delude himself over his own superiority regardless of all evidence to the contrary. He genuinely believes he’s a genius, an intimidating presence, a great deal maker, a popular person with the general public, that he won all 3 elections, and even that he’s seen as a sex symbol. He does not live in objective reality in regards to his own attributes, or much else for that matter. It’s all delusion. And that’s before the dementia started setting in.
