I mean if you want to drive over your lawn to make your dreams come true, I'll support you.

Do you trust the government?

Hey, it's been a really long time since I had to reboot windows to change my IP. /s

"I'm possibly the next president and think you're dreamy, Vlad" absolutely emboldens him and killing Navalny sends the message that he heard him loud and clear.

Next milestone? Circular driveway.

These groups are very insular. At mar-a-lago over cocktails or whatever, you can probably spout of classist nonsense without anyone batting an eye with polite silence greeting really overt racism. I seriously doubt anyone there would stand up and challenge you saying that kind of thing.

But I'm guessing these people go way further behind closed doors. And this is how they think what they say is acceptable. The more insular, the bigger the gap between between what real people think is ok and what the people in these privileged spaces think is ok.

What we need is for someone to leak video of Trump saying the stuff they say in backrooms. If you'll recall there is precedent for this.

Search your favorite way for "Trump leaked audio".

This take is missing the point a little. The undecided voter is where this matters and you won't see them moving polls. Some districts that affect the outcome are very close calls we where a few thousand undecided going D instead of R can make a difference.

Edit - sorry, was trying to reply to a comment higher up about losing support.

It's a fair point. I think the key in political contests is to win over undecided voters. You will never win over the Maga zombies. You probably won't win over "my family votes Republican" voters. But there's a chance with the almost impossible to understand undecided voters.

The people who thought "Trump is a businessman and we need a better economy" or "Trump is a billionaire so isn't subject to corruption" might see him differently now. Both of these takes are laughably naive but undecided voters tend to also be low information, last minute people. They get a vague sense of things and go with that. Seeing Trump humiliated on a money issue might do it.

That's just one scenario.

In some purple districts the vote margins are really narrow. A few thousand voters going D instead of R can do it. It's why third party candidates are so damaging.

Sneakers: $1,000,000 a pair.

Really, an inability to pay will be far more damaging to his campaign than a criminal conviction or jail time. Let's see how it goes.

I would have accepted a Garfield phone.

This announcement is performative. Probably just a "good" reason to back out of something they didn't want to do anymore, anyway. Otherwise there's paper on the deal and they wouldn't back out.

Sealed Illy coffee can for storage and excellent for drying out a phone with a moisture alert on the charging connection. You are probably correct about stuff that is thoroughly soaked but that's not what I use it for as that scenario doesn't seem to arise for me. I did once use this system to dry out my wife's phone that was not working after our toddler dropped it into a bucket or something and it was fine for a couple years after but I'm guessing gaskets prevented any moisture from getting too far since we pulled it out immediately.

For years, I've saved every silica packet in a coffee can. I stopped a while ago since I have a liter of them and the can is full.

Works great for drying things out.

I realize this is the advice in the article but wanted to point out that they build up quickly and come in just about everything that isn't food these days.

The people down voting you should try not paying taxes for a while and we'll see how that goes for them.

There's always money in the sneaker stand.

I think it's also very acceptable to have full time contractors on the payroll with no end date for the same reason.

So you're saying Snoop is higher than Trump?

One of these people was trying to do some good and made a verbal fumble probably caused by years of conditioning that got him where he is today and yes, old people say stuff like this by accident. He probably does have racist thoughts that he knows are bullshit but were put there by the shit job older generations have done in building society.

The other guy is a raging psycho who echoes Hitler phrases in his speeches.

Yes, I'm probably dropping this. Old habits die hard
