His power comes from the fact that he is so unpredictable (and petty) coupled with the inexplicable fact he was given the most powerful role in our government makes me at least estimate him as a huge threat.

Let me check the answering machine.

I mean.. you can talk about it here and tens of people might see it.

On mobile, Firefox plus ublock works well. There are a few issues like losing your position if the page reloads, but it works pretty consistently otherwise.

I also use NewPipe, but Google breaks it fairly regularly.

Robber barrons is nice in that it is archaic, and shows us things haven't really ever changed.

I use oligarchs in polite conversation, but it's nice to have options.

Hopefully they catch another charge for resisting, which isn't pardoned.

My wife made fun of me the other day for pronouncing the h in homage. I quickly got my revenge when dictionary.com offered my way as the first pronunciation.

Oh-mage is fancier I will admit.

It was painful to watch. It's even more painful that he put us in this position. Now he is rubbing salt in the wound.

It made me gassy.

Trump is going to try and cut popular programs like social security and throw the unlikable Vivek and Musk under the bus for it

Elon is going to try and run the country through Trump while using his immense wealth and power to keep Trump doing what he wants.

Someone is getting played at the end of the day. It's just who can most effectively maneuver their position. It'd be kind of interesting if they weren't fucking with all of us in the process.

GFCI outlets aren't too expensive. If you own the place you should fix that. If you rent the place you should complain lol.

We could have had colosseum executions where inmates fight to the death, hosted by Dana White and the UFC. But no, old man Biden has to ruin the fun.

I love that this dumb dumb made a post on reddit. There are search engines, large language models, and the good ole thesaurus to find words that are synonyms. Figure. It. Out.

I'm just thinking about my own experience, but my parents are blue collar Democrats, so no they didn't. They just worked hard their whole lives and are enjoying their well earned retirement.

Boomers are a large group of people, hence the name, from diversified backgrounds. I believe people are trying to start a generational war where we need a proper class war.

In my experience an unexpected light on your dashboard is about $1000 minimum at the dealership. I fear for the owner.

Yes... That is their money. They should spend and enjoy it.

I'd upload a few languages. Instantly being able to speak and read an array of languages and traveling the world would be fun.

The brand always seemed kind of silly to me. I'm sure the margins are good on their items, but most people will think to go to a retail store instead of a specialized party store. Target and Walmart both sell food and alcohol in my state, so I can stop there and get everything I need for the actual party..

People have been taught to fear single payer healthcare. Money equals speech and the health industry has plenty of it. They control the narrative since the rich and powerful have bought up the media companies. They also control our lawmakers with unlimited money via citizens United; putting roadblocks in place for any sort of fundamental reform.

People vote against their interests as a function of a corrupt oligarchy running the show. People are getting played and just don't know any better / have a limited world-view.
