National ID wouldn't change that unless voter local registration and change-of-address updates were all rigidly and securely integrated.

I suspect Google wouldn't publish this.
Eugenics? A guy going bald that early?
Has he never heard of a humidifier? Good lord.
will automate millions of jobs if it works, might kneecap the economy

Merriam-Webster says "marked by a wild irrational staring of the eyes"
Which sounds a bit more accurate than a mere physical quirk.
Weird that a young lesbian couple would be so anti-gay.
Pfft. Real hoopy froods play Heroclix.

Someone send Roko a copy of James K. Morrow's novel "Towing Jehovah" which involves the enormous corpse of God being towed, by a (much smaller) oil tanker, from near the Equator north to a fijord for burial in a cave. (I lost interest toward the end).
