Greetings new arrivals. I'm Sam and for the most part I am but a humble shitposter.
I have a background in studying Nazi Germany, the late Russian Empire and the early USSR which I thought would be a neat party trick but then Timothy Snyder started appearing on MSNBC and now I hate everything

Looking at the guys, for however briefly you see them in the video, and the fact that they were immediately all over Hasan the moment he pulled out a Mao meme, tells me that these were not the regular people’s (armed) police, but the MSS

Like I was saying. Rugpulling the expanded premium tax credits suddenly dumps a few million people out of the market and leads to shit like this as insurance cos react, which quickly becomes self perpetuating.
And that’s how you de facto repeal the aca.

Solar’s price drop is astonishing: panels are now 98% cheaper than when I first analyzed them in 2004.
Today, building a fence with solar can be cheaper than using wood.

I think a lot of it comes down to lefties doing the Richard Hofstadter paranoid style thing when Bowman and Bush lost
AIPAC money probably didn't buy those seats but it definitely bought the perception that it did which I'd argue is way more valuable for them

little bit odd that AIPAC is clearly bad and does bad things but has turned into some kind of bogeyman for leftwingers
it's almost like no one wants to Do Politics, they just assume all their enemies are in a secret cabal that rules the party

Progressive groups are calling for Chuck Schumer's ouster after centrist Dems' shutdown cave. Dem senators' phone lines are "exploding" with the same demands. So far, Senate Dems don't have a ton to say.

So I actually think that whole "esports aren't real because the developer can just change the game whenever they want" is an extremely flawed argument because isn't the major reason why baseball has seen a resurgence in popularity is because of the addition of the pitch clock?
