So we're just budgeting for 60 days at a time now?

That feels extremely inefficient.

But what is profits don't go up that same 3.5%?

If the company isn't growing at the rate of inflation and they have to pay the workers more, they have to cut something to grant that pay increase.

So, I'd ask do you want layoffs for some and the cost of living increase for the rest or no raise?

Once you got the blimp it was legit open world.

Yep, he's willing to say the racist/sexist/anti glbt things the other Republicans are only willing to imply.

How does Monsanto avoid this?

They sell you seeds. You can grow things with those seeds, but you cant plant the grown plants' seeds.

Yes, my friend did several of those in the early 90s. He mailed many dollars. Never did he get a dollar.

And here we have why I have not connected my smart dishwasher to the Internet. Those 2 extra wash cycles don't seem worth it. Especially considering I only ever use the most powerful sounding wash cycle.

This!

You get what you put in.

If you made a basic profile and your messages are all "Hi" or "hi, you're cute"

You're not getting dates.

If you curate a profile with good content, good photos and send messages that prove that you read their profile you'll get responses. You'll never get a message back for every message your send. 10% is a good response rate.

It's a skill to do all of those things, it's okay ask for help on those things. Sit down with a trusted friend either a woman that's of that age, or a man that gets dates from an app.

Then, the next skill is turning messages into meetings IRL.

Then after that is turning dates into a relationship.

Actually, I was recently thinking of gravel pit simulator. It's be like a farming sim, you'd buy various equipment and use them to move dirt separating gravel and selling it to get money to buy better requirements.

His parents offered to buy him a business so he could just collect a check instead of going to Harvard.

I'm the same age as him and I came from a well to do upper middle class background. My parents could not afford to buy me a million dollar business for me to run. I had fairly rich friends. None of their parents made them offers like that.

I've never heard that. That's a really good metaphor!

That's where the trend is putting books spine first into a bookshelf came from too.

The tv producers don't want to spend days asking for permission to use book spine graphics in the shot, not spend time blurring the film, so they flip the books around to hide all the spine art. It's on HGTV a ton.

Do you all think it'll come before or after he explains his Obamacare alternative?

Most Americans will vote Biden over Trump, but those same people would vote for any moderate Republican over Biden.

Republicans are attached at the hip to Trump and thus is actually best for the Democrats if Trump stays out of prison for the next year and keeps running for office.

Trump doesn't get the over saturation that the rest of politicians seem to get. I don't know why that doesn't apply to him. The more he is in the news, the better he polls.

Wait for the attack ads. The Dems better take the gloves off and keep showing that trump tried to overturn the 2020 election.

Attack ads work, they make prospective voters stay home on election day. The Dems need to use them aggressively this time.

An online petition demanding that the sculptors cease and desist

Can we get a petition going for the sculptors to continue?

Well... Apple may come after your pie shop. You'll likely win if you have the resources to fight it.

Monster Cable, they fight anyone who uses the word "monster" including mini golf places

Tldr, monster Cable is ran by shit humans who like to litigate.

The prevalence of semi auto guns with quick changing magazines.

No kidding, that's hardcore against public health rules in most of the USA.

He was asked about the 2020 election shortly after he was elected speaker. The Republicans all booed the reporter's question and Johnson just skipped answering.
