I say funny things. Also, other things.
Yeah, my anger is luckily muted by my battery not being involved in the recall. I imagine I would be less sanguine if my battery were a fire risk and they were complaining about mean regulators.

Also whenever a company is saying a safety regulator is wrong for "discouraging innovation" they are definitely doing something bad. Not a great look, even as someone who quite likes their bikes and owns one.

It is funny to me that as a non-Reds partisan who didn't object to the Rogers vote that even I can remember it was you not voting for Jonathan India. People get very mad about things that are inconsequential.

Important to note that "You cannot find 7 good people of conscience" among elected Republicans, who are selected for on the lack of conscience!
It would be like trying to find seven 5'0" men on an NBA court. It's not that they don't exist, but they're not in the population you're dealing with!

Zoomers in public accounting are absolutely not making a lot of money relative to their education requirements and hours and the whole point of PA is that you get promoted every two years OR can leave for a big raise whenever you want. I say that as a Millennial CPA.
And the work definitely sucks.

Kagan on the “asserted harms” to the Trump’s foreign policy, to which the conservative justices deferred in their unsigned order:
![The Executive’s argument about irreparable harm and the balance of equities fares no better. The Executive says that to comply with the District Court’s order to obligate the $4 billion, it will have to “enter into negotiations” with “for- eign states or international organizations.” Application 35. And in those discussions, the Executive protests, it will have to “advocate against its own objectives”—“under- min[ing]” its real view that the expenditures are “contrary to U. S. foreign policy.” Id., at 3, 34–35. But that is just the price of living under a Constitution that gives Congress the power to make spending decisions through the enactment of appropriations laws. If those laws require obligation of the money, and if Congress has not by rescission or other action relieved the Executive of that duty, then the Execu- tive must comply. It cannot be heard to complain, as it does here, that the laws clash with the President’s differing view of “American values” and “American interests.” Id., at 34. That inconsistency, in other words, is not a cognizable harm, to be weighed in the equitable balance. It is merely a frustration any President must bear.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:4d2snfeymcblmvoaxvgfs7i6/bafkreibqtm2oggmokzz3ybeeqxsoh2lmx2qpkkhnjzaahsn3ppkgmuouum@jpeg)
