In another timeline, Hillary Clinton wins. Merrick Garland becomes a Justice. RBG retires. Anthony Kennedy doesn't.
There is no Gorsuch. There is no Kavanaugh. There is no Coney Barrett.
These are the consequences of one election.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

In another timeline, Beccs becomes Dictator for Life of the US, Trump and his ilk are sent for re-education and are shot trying to escape, SCOTUS is declared irrelevant and all decisions are now made directly by the Dictator.

I injure myself on the reg (not self-harm, just clumsy). It's odd that the injuries which cause the most pain tend to be less serious overall and vice versa.

I came into this world naked, screaming, and covered in someone else's blood, and I intend to leave it the same way.

That explains it. I've never heard of those movies.
