They’re doing this because they know a bad jobs report is coming and they know the economic tides are against them. Say what you will about Carville, he distilled the feelings of the voting public in a way that stands the test of time. Politicians are just starting to fear voters more than trump

Donald Trump’s DOJ just tried—and failed—to indict me in front of a grand jury.

We will continue to fight back against their rising tyranny.

Don’t Give Up the Ship.

These people are everyone who saw that scene in Mission to Mars where Tim Robbins freezes instantly when he takes his helmet off and used that as the basis for their plans. Because space is “cold”

Data centers are literally designed to optimize cooling. WHERE THE HELL IS THE HEAT SUPPOSED TO GO IN SPACE

Everyone seemed to be obsessed with their Stanley cups there for a while. They should maybe google how those are insulated sometime. Then maybe google what most of space is. You know, just for the funsies

And as an engineer/manager who’s been in this industry for 20 years, I wish more candidates had humanities degrees in the first place. So much of the job is about communication and working within a complex organization. Something a CS degree teaches you nothing about

Dems should introduce legislation now defunding ICE and CBP operations in Minnesota, so they have to leave the state. One sentence bill. Demand an immediate vote. Maybe refuse to vote for cloture on any funding bills (or other bills) until a vote. Make the GOP Congress break w/ Trump or own it all.

If anyone expects anything to change at this point, it’s not going to happen without changes across the board and that includes Chuck Schumer. We have real Democrats in the Senate. They have the power to change leadership at any time, and that needs to happen immediately.

Just once I'd like to see Schumer or Jeffries angry. Authentically angry. No elegance or solutions are necessary, but purely reactive or instinctive. Some indication that they feel -- that they are capable of feeling -- what we are feeling.

If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.

Commute time wise, it’s more like saying Chicago and having it in Springfield

That’s the best part, it’s not. It’s Riverside county

Easily. It used to take me an hour just to commute from Santa Monica to Playa Del Rey. I wasn’t even leaving the west side…

Not the craziest thing here, obviously, but saying Riverside is LA is pretty laughable

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Related to your former Senator, Mark?

we have been way too tolerant of cowards: we should be demanding that far more people in power who claim to be against the murderous evil of MAGA meet the standard currently being demonstrated by Jerome Fucking Powell
Jerome Powell: "This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions—or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation."

I had to pull up an ascii table because the number of characters didn't make sense. All that effort to realize you omitted the period at the end lol

This is what makes it a potentially effective campaign strategy though. It provides a service that is currently necessary but shouldn’t be, and provides an opportunity to talk about how the government can be a force for good because many voters don’t see campaigns as distinct from government
