Did he? Never heard of it.

I know Dulles and John Glenn and National and JFK. Can't say I recall a "Reagan Airport".

Go sit in the back of a Tesla and have it drive you somewhere.

And if you tell them that, they'll throw a tantrum.

No, you're not supposed to promote terrorism on a public platform. It's not very effective.

Besides, I'm sure they'd find someone to take Elon's place at this point.

The entire Republican party is complicit in this.

Partly through threats and leverage and fear. The previous term purged most of the GOP who weren't cowards.

I'm on Boost, but should probably look at Voyager.

Pretty sure measles is the one where you can catch it by just walking into a room where someone where an infected person was two hours ago.

Imagine it's third period trig and you caught measles from the kid who was in first period trig without ever having seen him.

It's bad. Afaik measles is the most contagious disease we've ever seen.

They might not die. They might just go blind or dead or have brain damage.

Well, that sounds pretty bad, but how contagious is it?

Junior compiler writers exist.

Not really? But we also don't need a million compilers. Those projects are extremely specialized and there isn't constant demand for new compilers.

It's something like saying there aren't junior screwdriver makers. I mean, yeah? That's a specific tool that's pretty much done. There are juniors in the wider fields of carpentry and mechanical engineering. Someone might invent a new screwdriver, but we don't need to trim a bunch of juniors to make, specifically, new screwdriver designs.

Verdant is satire. It's confusing because it feels like a continuation from the guy who was simply wrong, but it's a different person.

I'm so fucking tired of everyone blaming the Democrats.

Trump has a 46% approval rating. ** 46% of the American people support explicitly this. **

They don't have the right to perform a coup without the consent of the people. And you, right now, are saying you don't consent to their rule because they haven't taken it by force. (What force?)

Are you aware of how unpopular any impeachment typically is? If his approval rating is 46%, impeachment won't happen.

We're going to have to wait for things to get bad enough that we all start to actually suffer in our lives, outside of just seeing it coming by reading the news.

Seeing the train isn't enough. We have to wait for it to hit us.

Reddit lounge was innocuous, and not at all the same. (Even if the basic mechanic is the same.)

You're, please.

I really enjoyed the Reddit gold model. I paid them $30/year for many years because I got so much out of the site that I felt they deserved it. Their monetization was pretty innocuous.

Then the enshittification happened.

The US fostered this and the EU was happy to accept it. It worked out reasonably well for everyone until about checks watch right now.

The EU got to under fund and under prepare their military, and the US was effectively buying soft power and security around the world. It's why the US able to basically unilaterally drag a coalition into Iraq.

when in a minority, they can't stop anything Republicans do.

Like when the Republicans tried to repeal the ACA?

Well, yes. This. Just reduce the numbers appropriately so it's not a strawman.

The American people have voted against democracy. If they don't have a solid majority of the vote, they can't do much.

For about 50 years it was consistently getting better until just now. And you act like that counts for nothing.

A law would be something that they might be able to get passed

This means you don't understand the Citizens United ruling.
