We kept whipping and whipping but the work never seemed to get done. The only excuse they have is that half the team died from exhaustion or suicide, and they aren’t getting severance!

Ah, VoA has turned into a Russian rag as soon as Trump is elected.

One of Robert Downey Jr’s best roles. He was so detached and horrible in the role while being an absolute goofball (that silencer and the bike). He reminded me of a few tweakers I used to know.

Hell Comes to Frogtown is a fantastic movie if you can get over the premise of the movie “the government hires a rapist to help jumpstart the population boom after humanity becomes endangered.”

Buddhism teaches that wanting causes suffering. Happiness can be achieved when we stop wanting and start existing as we are.

The comic punchline is that by getting rid of “want” then all we are left with is happiness.

Yeah, but that boy’s family is a joke and he barely has any supervision at home except for his physical abusive father.

Every time a Democrat loses, blue voters turn on each other and say that a lack of X or a policy change to Y would have won over the fence sitters in state Z. It’s exhausting folks.

The party is driven by an oligarchy too, with multimillionaires as candidates and even a D governor who is a billionaire. Now that voting is done, please see the underlying argument for “both sides” - it isn’t their policy but the make up of the organization. D and R will never be progressive or interested in the issues affecting the broad majority of folks. Dems use the worst consultants and listen to “moderates” more than their dedicated but inactive voters. They are trying too hard to include Rs that don’t want them and it’s a bad look. The desperation undercuts any message about hope.

It means the money is being spent in many wrong places for voters who will never be helpful. it means that even though D campaigns raised more money, it was frivolously wasted.

The Democrats need Gen Z to take over the party and push for a culture shift, seeking optimistic policies that generate actual hope. Institutional inertia is killing any hope the left can find. Remember when Michael Bloomberg spent $500 million to derail Bernie’s campaign trail momentum which allowed Biden to win New Hampshire and become the presumptive nominee even though he had far fewer wins than Bernie? There are bad actors running things for the Dems and they are steering the party into ineffective effort each election.

There’s a couple parts to it. It’s black and white, there is no grey area or mixed results. The Yes is white.

These look like they are after Palworld was released. Was Nintendo just sitting on the patent since Pokeman red/blue? What an unintuitive legal system they have over in Japan.

Why are there dates in the corners?

This story has no proper nouns other than PA. It needs more details or else it’s a lie that we want to believe.

My daily driver is Lipton Orange Pekoe. It’s fantastic and priced right for what it is. My rainy day sipping tea is a Taiwanese Fujian black tea.

They invented a quick save button?

You left it in your bathroom?

The United States has a few chip fabs that are capable of making military grade hardware. It’s helpful that the defense industry uses chips which aren’t the most advanced possible - they want the reliability mature tech provides. Micron, Texas Instruments, ON semiconductor - there are a few domestic chip companies with stateside fabs.

Intel is also a valuable collection of patents and a huge number of companies would love to get them. Someone will want to step in before the government takes over.

Could soar? Like, it’s preventable? How? Oh, vote for Harris/Walz to not see tariffs used again.

Humans were domesticated long ago and broken up into breeds, like dogs or cats, and now that we no longer build pyramids the folks who domesticated the humans left. Now it’s just us, us, and racism.

Sounds like they wanted a thermometer but didn’t know that cooking thermometers have different names and was presented with pictures of cooked meat. Judging by their reaction, they find meat unappealing. Their indignation is borne from seeing a thing that they don’t like but is key to the search term they used, “meat thermometer”, when they could have used “candy thermometer” and gotten the same products with different pictures that would be far less offensive. So they are blaming their seeing meat on the choices of others instead of their own inexperience with cooking instruments.

Ah, ok right wing. That’s all you had to say.

Look, more right wing terrorism.
