"The records office doesn't open 'til 4pm." *BLAMM!!*
Just this once, I wish Jim had just started to blow people away. As soon as anyone gives him any shit, starts hinting at some stupid conspiracy he didn't want to know anything about in the first place, just BLANG!!
Yet another asshole shows up while he's already getting ready to GTFO of town. "I know your whole criminal record, and I can have your P.I. license held up if you don't leave town." Whoever he is, *BLAAAMM!!* right in the face.
"We're taking you back to town. Boss don't care what the sheriff said." *BBBLAAAHAMMMM!*
"We know you didn't do it, but we're gon' hold ya in jail 'til things go our way." *BLAM! BLAMM!! BLAMMM!!!*
"I'm fixin' your carburetor, what's it look like?" *BLANGG!*
"You'll find the best fishing ever over at Beaver Fork." *BLAM*
"Hello? You got a minute? I hope I'm not interrupting anything. I'm a doing a news story about trout fishing." *BANG!*
"Please, I might not make it out of the hospital. Take my proxy to the mayor, who's also the pharmacist." "Fuck this!" *BLAPP!*
"Hoo, boy, this pain in my stomach is gettin' to me again..." *BLAP!*
And punch the fucking mechanic in the face and nuts at the end.

House Republicans hope a strict, new voting schedule will help juice their slim majority — as only a handful of missed votes could change the game.
Why It Matters: Sickness, surgeries, funerals and other events calling House members away from D.C. will have higher stakes than ever with historically tight margins and no more proxy voting.
The significance of empty seats in the chamber was on full display during the speakership vote.
• Rep. Ken Buck (R-Colo.) flew back to D.C. after having a medical procedure to ensure Kevin McCarthy's (R-Calif.) Speaker victory.
• Rep. Wesley Hunt (R-Tex.) left a premature, newborn son in order to cast his final vote.
Between The Lines: While Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) also presided over perilously thin margins, members have been able to cast votes from home due to the pandemic. Republicans ended that option upon taking the majority.
• "Attendance will be critical with a 4 seat majority," one Republican leadership aide told Axios, adding it will be "especially tough" for Democrats to "get in the consistent habit of showing up in person after many of them proxy voted the majority of time over the last two years."
• The aide said Republicans "will stick to a strict floor schedule and not leave vote times open for hours like Democrats did, which will require timely attendance."
What They're Saying: Several top House Republicans, in statements to Axios, acknowledged attendance will be a challenge but defended ending proxy voting.
• "Of course, attendance will again be crucially important in such a closely divided body," said GOP Conference Vice Chair Mike Johnson (R-La.), "But ultimately this was the right decision for the institution and the country.”
• Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-Minn.) said it "may come as a shock to the DC bubble that we expect members to show up to work" given that "proxy voting and poor attendance were the status quo during the Democrat majority."
The Other Side: When asked about the importance of attendance and any concerns about the way Republicans would run the floor, Democratic Whip Katherine Clark (D-Mass.) told Axios in a statement:
• “As House Democrats demonstrated during the Republicans’ historically dysfunctional Speaker fight, we are united, organized, and ready to stand up for working families."
What To Watch: Whether House members' ambitions for higher office override their loyalty to their respective caucuses by calling them away from Washington.
• Just two weeks into the session, three House members have already announced Senate bids. Another is running for Chicago mayor.
• At least a half dozen other House members have expressed interest in, or are reportedly weighing, bids for Senate and Governor.
By The Numbers: Republicans currently hold their second-narrowest House majority since at least the early 1960s — beat only by the 107th Congress where the majority held just 220 seats, according to data from the Pew Research Center.
• On average, House Republicans in the 117th Congress voted by proxy 29 times, compared to an average of 54 times for Democrats, according to Brookings Institution.
• In 2020, the first year proxy voting was in place, Republicans on average missed 8.3% of votes due to large-scale boycotting of proxy voting, compared to 2.5% of votes for Democrats, according to data from Quorum.

Big U.S. Fund Companies Retreat on Support for ESG Proxy Votes
“More ‘no’ votes by U.S. funds on key ESG resolutions contrasts with continued backing from European money managers.” [COMMENTARY] This is not surprising given the current environment in the USA. Most European investors still believe in ESG whereas, in the USA, many investors — particularly on the right of the political spectrum — have erroneously, come to doubt it! Thus, this is reflected in…

okay we've already had some metagaming and kazuibashing for superstition but i think in trial three for MILGRAM we need to take it to the next level. I propose a non-exhaustive list of reasons to vote a character guilty or innocent:
how good their song sounds to you personally
intense rivalry with another milgram voter wherein your vote isn't related to the character but to cancelling out every single vote this motherfucker makes like zero pairs
mass vote-fixing to see what the biggest inno or guilty sweep we can get is
projecting the characters onto the friends that make you sad and guilty voting them in the efforts of some maleficent effect on their psyche by proxy
throwing a dart at a board
flipping a coin every day to determine your vote for that day only, repeat again the next day
whatever would piss the character off most
vote them inno if they'd look prettier with the inno green eyes on the post-vote picture and guilty if the red suits them better (aesthetics only babey!)
give the app to an ipad toddler and make them vote. doesn't matter which one
ask an old person in your community whether the character is inno or guilty after giving no context on them. repeat with a different old person every day
correlate your vote with a certain stock and when the stock price goes up, vote inno, and when the stock price goes down, vote guilty
close your eyes and spam clicks
vote inno and guilty on alternate days for an even number of days so none of your votes don't cancel each other out
use the vote like a mood tracker. good days gets an inno and bad days gets a guilty, and the character better pray you're not depressed that month
and finally, swear fealty to some nonsense headcanon a twitter user made up about them and vote with primarily that in mind
