This is a common complaint, but it deserves to be mentioned frequently: exploding control panels. This is especially a problem in Star Trek. Are circuit breakers a lost technology?

Again, SCOTUS has surprised me by doing something non-horrible.

He’s so selfish and arrogant that catering to his ego will be critical. I think he’d prefer a crummy deal that lets him look good, over a great deal that embarrasses him. He doesn’t care what’s best for the USA long term; he’d rather look good now.

It’s like Netanyahu saw what Trump has been doing, and said to himself “I better step up the douchebaggery!”

Perfect capitalism maneuver. Straight from the playbook.

1. Treat workers like shit
2. Blame them when they finally reach the breaking point

Good for them - in this one particular situation

This isn’t meant to be hard news that you can bet the farm on. It’s just pointing out the irony of Musk’s toy talking shit about Trump. That’s all.

Yeah. I understand how the idea can make people uncomfortable, but there’s a big difference between discomfort and hatred.

Just calm down, folks. Nobody’s going to force surgery or medication on you, okay? Jeez.

lol I voted for her anyway, because I thought she was better than the alternative. If I only knew…

My point is that her timid, business-as-usual stance was a dealbreaker for a lot of people. How many voted 3rd party, or didn’t vote at all, because she refused to explicitly oppose genocide? How many Democrats like me still voted for her, but weren’t nearly as enthusiastic as they could have been?

Know which news sources are truly Canadian owned, and which are American owned. Once you’ve narrowed that down, figure out which sources are owned by rich Canadians who might be profiting from uncertainty or hostility.

Okay, let’s play infantile, pedantic word games.

I tend not to agree with people who won’t make a clear, strong, ethical stand against genocide. Fuck me, right?

They supported genocide. No amount of handshakes would have overcome that.

Transphobia has never made any sense to me, a cishet male. It’s like… has it ever occurred to you that different people have different needs? Stop being a hateful transphobic jackass and open your mind a fraction.

Ah. Thank you. I didn’t know that.

That’s a really shitty contract.

Yeah, but the DHS is taking a massive risk each time they fire someone because of a polygraph. Without other evidence, they will have no legal defense if sued.

Polygraph tests are so unreliable, they’re not even admissible in court.

Not exactly a rock solid case if someone who’s fired decides to sue - which I hope happens frequently.

I’m sure this will work exactly as planned, and have no negative consequences whatsoever.

Sometimes it’s nice to dream.

Thanks In Advance

Context, please? TIA
