Quite a few, starting with, “how is that relevant?”

Just because someone is the moral equivalent of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch does not inherently mean that they are also the intellectual equivalent of the same.

“Feature Phone” suggests that this was from the late 1900s, or early 2000. Storage limits at the time were impractical.

True enough. Used to be, we were the only game in town, and we knew it.

Our smarter presidents tried to make sure we remained the best option, or at least a good option. Trump, as you have noted, makes is the worst option.

Does anyone in Washington understand that a “deal” generally includes giving the other guy something they want, not just demanding things that you want?

Have you seen his competition?

If this was true, there would be no reason not to vote on it all together.

This happened under Biden. (Schumer then, too, I belive) Separated a bill, passed the parts the Republicans wanted, then the Republicans voted against the part the Democrat wanted.

Bend over, here it comes again.

The show clearly makes him out to be a loose cannon, dangerous even to his allies. He caused great factionalism in the rebellion.

And he died, having accomplished very little, because he believed that victory comes from purity of purpose, rather than from working together against the enemy of all.

I’m not sure I’d call that “unfortunate.” I’ve said for ages that if we can just get more people to vote, it will be good for the democrats. Work the rise of MAGA, I’ve included that if we can get them to think before they vote, that will be even better.

Where do I sign?

Actually, no. I forgot that my pay is two weeks at a time, so call it 60 hours.

I’ve occasionally considered purchases add a function of the number of hours worked to earn that money. My fast food costs an hour of work. My nifty you costs two or three hours. Rent costs 30 hours, more or less.

Sometimes it’s helpful, mostly depressing.

No-one is every gonna call it anything but the Epstein ballroom.

Isn’t the after sex cigarette kind of a trope?

They are helping, yes, but windows 11 is a driving force like I’ve never seen.

I don’t want purity tests because we, on the left, are incapable of reaching a consensus on much of anything. If we can’t agree to tolerate a limited amount of disagreement with each other, we can’t work together on the things we do agree on, and those things tend to be kind of important.

Which he will ignore as soon as he finds it inconvenient.

Why do people continue to think you can make a deal with someone who never upholds their end of a deal?

Well, that’s customer satisfaction.

Very nice.

How about those Epstein files?

Do your iPhones usually take oil?

What do you think plastic is made from?
