Top of the list. No chance for change with this regressive anchor around the neck of this country

Me reading this in the bathroom on Thanksgiving

And pin it to an inflation index maybe?

Starts with a “oh shit these old people have expensive healthcare needs!”, proceeds to “how the hell are we going to pay for their elder benefits?” (Social Security in the US), and eventually to “even their houses got gobbled up by the banks and private capital when they had to reverse mortgage their homes to pay off their medical bills and live out their final days…”

Can we get these so big they’re meaningless costs in terms of something understandable, like years of free lunches for all elementary school students? Housing all currently unhoused people? (Not medical, those costs make no sense)

“Trump Has Already Spent The Equivalent Of Feeding All Elementary School Students For A Quarter Attacking Latin America”

Depends on the quality of the food.

Straight up anticompetitive. And so obviously going to lose even the first wiff of a 1A legal challenge.

Come back!

They don’t. Or they’d start reading the room and actually start pushing an actual “change agent”. They’re too stuck on running people whose whole ethos is “if only things were how they had been back in the 90s” (when DNC had power). Was a great time for them, but since Regan, everything’s been getting shittier for everyone not in the political or donor class. They need to run a FDR not a Biden.

Because the DNC decided to go with (checks notes) the easiest to run centrist candidate who happened to already be there.

But no. Why. Ugh. He’s not better.

Why do you think they’re buying so much AI shit right now? To filter through the noise for whatever they want to find. People aren’t the bottleneck anymore.

Unless…

pours drink Game on.

Nice! An actual replacement to Nextdoor.

“Because it benefits Russia” is honestly the most cogent reason I’ve heard for his obsession with Greenland.

Their strategy has always been “go so fast no one can keep up with the awful things, and pile controversies to cover up controversies”. A slow durable administrative action that respects separation of powers and doesn’t treat the executive as a godking was never in the cards.

Almost like they know the answer is “no he really can’t” but want to save the shitstorm for after the midterms.

Nah. Power is just the potential to do work. Clever electrical engineering just takes advantage of the teensy pushes and pulls to do that work. Like pushing a swing, I don’t move but my kid sure can go high when I apply those pushes and pulls at the right time.

And some basic image editing! At last
