  • Crazy man says crazy shit. He does realize the absolute stink the right threw for eight solid years over Obama not being from this country, but Kenya? Guess why. It wasn't because he was fluent in Kenyan or that he practiced Kenyan traditional customs.

    It's because the GOP, and it's powerbase, is full of old, white, rich, bigoted fuckheads that will absolutely not vote for someone whose name they can't spell or have trouble pronouncing, or anyone whose skin color is darker than "spray tan". They might let him sit at the table like they did with Herman Cain, but I can guarantee you all the right-wing buzzwords and talking points in the world won't be enough for those old fucks to consider him "one of us" and throw their weight behind him. It's a fat fuckin' chance. If they hated eight years of a president Obama, they certainly will not welcome with open arms someone to be named president Ramalamadingdong. Ain't happening.

  • Please tell me someone recorded this utter waste of oxygen doing the equivalent of stepping on garden tools in a Looney Tunes short. That's so monstrously fucking stupid it could be funny (if the old adage of tragedy + time = comedy holds true, anyways).

  • There are good properties to work at and bad ones, just like most jobs. I work as a full time night auditor with a solid crew and great management (now... previous manager was nice but incompetent), and I'm quite happy to say I make a fair chunk more than my state's minimum. That all said, it does vary heavily based on property location, size, amenities, management, how well coworkers gel together -- so apply to job postings carefully if you go into hospitality. It does give you fun stories though, that's why I love the job.

  • And you can launch more than one missile. You can also launch MIRVs. Or multiple MIRVs. The point being, with US backing, Taiwan has many fun toys to use against the Chinese to make their lives hell even without us showing up to the party -- which we would, with very minimal fucking about, because Taiwan's got dem microchips. And we want dem microchips.

  • Friendly reminder that PLEX is a great, free service, you just have to put in the effort to build up a media collection. High capacity HDDs are very cheap now, so storing a large media collection isn't particularly expensive.

    They also offer a lifetime "Plex pass" which adds some neat, but non-essential features, like auto-skipping intros and credits sequences for instance. It's not necessary, but it's a nice way to show support for what they do.

  • Error 404: Coherent Thought Not Found. Buffer Overflow in Verbal Output Stream. Senator.exe has encountered an unexpected filibuster in cognitive process.

    Initiating System Reboot... Please Stand By.

    Estimated time to resume 'functionality': 30 seconds.

  • do not let "perfect" be the enemy of "good enough"

    edit: quick addendum, I really cannot stress this enough, everyone who says nuclear is an imperfect solution and just kicks the can down the road -- yes, it does, it kicks it a couple thousand years away as opposed to within the next hundred years. We can use all that time to perfect solar and wind, but unless we get really lucky and get everyone on board with solar and wind right now, the next best thing we can hope for is more time.

  • Even if this was added to the bill, there's no way it would ever reach the president's desk. And if it did, there's no way Biden wouldn't veto it.

    This is just somebody signalling his loyalty to Orange Steal so he can swoop in and grab a little of his powerbase when Orange Steal is serving out his golden years in a jumpsuit that matches his spray tan.

    I guarantee you, the Biden administration has a planned timeline they want to see this prosecution play out over, and it ends in a conviction before the election. It has contingencies in place for every bullshit delaying tactic conservatives will try to throw at them. He's going to jail for a very long time, and I'd say the majority of people are starting to wise up to this fact.

  • when you think about it, the fact we got this far as a species in terms of society and population is astounding. For all intents and purposes we should still be banging rocks together in caves.

    Really. Think for a moment: these people have had the modern benefits of the internet, the public library, sexual education courses in school -- something. They may not have paid attention or known exactly where to find that information, but we've had the information available if they wanted it.

    Still took them four fucking years to decide to go looking for answers.
