The rideshare angle is one I hadn't considered and it actually makes sense because the whole business model hinges on people needing to wash their cars a lot but not having a place to do that.

And ride share drivers living in apartments explain that perfectly.

All I can say, Senator, is that you better be right. The fact that Warner isn't backing this play concerns me greatly; if this really were a great deal for Virginia he'd be looking to tie his name to it before his race next year.

If Trump double crosses you on this you're out of cards.

Certainly not soon. Make them work for your business.

Not to be that guy but the first Presdient to live in the White House was John Adams.

🎶I know him. That can't be. He's that... little guy who spoke to me.🎵

See, the reason Democrats keep losing elections to bombastic populists is that they're not milquetoast ENOUGH. They gotta really lean into that beige aesthetic.

We got this in 2028: "John Smith. He believes in things."

Right, but Berlin was chosen in 31. Look I'm not saying that letting Nazi Germany host the Olympics with a fantastic idea. But exactly how bad of an idea it was going to be was certainly not clear in 1933 or even in 1936.

The history of how we ended up with the Berlin games is fascinating.

But when Berlin was chosen for the games it wasn't quite so goose-steppy. Also, the Berlin games were really what gave us the modern Olympics. Say what you will about thst Hitler guy - he did kill Hitler and he knew how to create a spectacle

I can offer some help if you want but given what you put together so far I don't expect implementing a pattern like that would be much of a challenge

SaaS professional here. You can spend the time and money to scale it up if you want but the hardest part is going to be optimizing your database. Given your limited visualization options you might be better served saving query results and creating a searchable gallery. Handle new requests in a queue

Not nearly enough "sir"s or "tears in his eyes" to be a real "Trump making up shit that absolutely did not happen" line.

Except maybe not right now because the internet has discovered the site and given it a big hug.

I love the optics of the director of the FBI breathlessly telling the press that they know the shooter was a left-wing zealot on the basis of this note that he wrote but THAT THE PRESS CAN'T SEE IT BECAUSE THE NOTE WAS DESTROYED.

Criminal investigation by "trust me, bro." Unbelievable.

Let's count off the markers shall we?

20-something white guy
Dad's GOP
Mon's GOP
Dad has an active hunting license
Mom's is inactive
Dad's a minister
Dad owns a construction services company
75% his community voted Trump

If Dems could mind control guys like that they'd never lose an election.

They'll just lie if he is. The right wants a martyr. Kirk is a modern day Horst Wessel and this will be played for polticial advantage regardless of the facts.
