  • A lot of those people have lived in shithole states their entire lives. I was speaking with a person from Uganda that would have voted for trump if he could vote. He lives in Washington State. I tried to explain to him that there's a difference between rural Alabama and Seattle, that you get a lot of benefits most states don't get. I don't think he understood the difference.

  • Is Harvard the only big boy that stepped up? There has to be more, right?

  • If you look at the individual cards on that site, it's incredibly frightening. Especially about cutting medicaid, it was their plan all along.

  • He's in the final stages of Rudy Giuliani. Next will be some kind of financial meltdown.

  • Nope, nope, nope. One is dismantling our government right now, stopping aid to the world, wanting to make GAZA into a resort, deporting 4 y.o. US citizens as well as many others, cutting medicaid, giving the wealthy more tax breaks and are generally racist af. The other is not doing any of those things.

  • But the government’s own data, which was obtained by ProPublica, The Texas Tribune and a team of journalists from Venezuela, showed that officials knew that only 32 of the deportees had been convicted of U.S. crimes and that most were nonviolent offenses, such as retail theft or traffic violations.

    The data indicates that the government knew that only six of the immigrants were convicted of violent crimes: four for assault, one for kidnapping and one for a weapons offense. And it shows that officials were aware that more than half, or 130, of the deportees were not labeled as having any criminal convictions or pending charges; they were labeled as only having violated immigration laws.

  • I think both people know where everyone is because of the addresses.

  • Some of those trucks ended up stored at a run-down mall in Farmington Hills outside of Detroit in Michigan. Unsurprisingly, local officials are not happy about it.

    Lol, he's not even trying to hide them anymore. I would like to see pics of these trucks *from afar at the rundown mall. It sounds very dystopian to see, Mad Max like.

    Edit: The pics they show don't show the mall in the background and how empty it looks.

  • There are some instances I can think of, but very few; smoke signals, whistles, marching bands for battle.

  • Can't they extract more data from a mobile set-up? I'm assuming that's why they did it, they're trying to take it to a phone experience for the corporations.

  • He did the tariffs so his people could make money on the markets. I don't think he realized how much it would crater the economy. Saudi Arabia saying we're hot probably meant that we're too hot to touch or something like that. The chickening out question isn't really that much of a question. Ask how much money his people made on his tariffs even though it's costing the American people jobs and money.

  • I know that, but are the symptoms similar? I remember the amputations and the lung issues.

  • Stupid question time. Was this what the people in hospitals were experiencing from covid? I remember people talking about amputating and such. This all sounds similar, but I never knew anyone closely that contracted it to this degree.

    Signs and symptoms

    The majority of the infected experienced only the typical flu symptoms of sore throat, headache, and fever, especially during the first wave.[199] However, during the second wave, the disease was much more serious, often complicated by bacterial pneumonia, which was often the cause of death.[199] This more serious type would cause heliotrope cyanosis to develop, whereby the skin would first develop two mahogany spots over the cheekbones which would then over a few hours color the entire face blue, followed by black coloration first in the extremities and then the limbs and the torso.[199] Death would follow within hours or days due to the lungs being filled with fluids.[199] Other signs and symptoms reported included spontaneous mouth and nosebleeds, miscarriages for pregnant women, a peculiar smell, teeth and hair falling out, delirium, dizziness, insomnia, loss of hearing or smell, and impaired vision.[199] One observer wrote, "One of the most striking of the complications was hemorrhage from mucous membranes, especially from the nose, stomach, and intestine. Bleeding from the ears and petechial hemorrhages in the skin also occurred".[200]

    The majority of deaths were from bacterial pneumonia,[201][202][203] a common secondary infection associated with influenza. This pneumonia was itself caused by common upper respiratory-tract bacteria, which were able to get into the lungs via the damaged bronchial tubes.[204] The virus also killed people directly by causing massive hemorrhages and edema in the lungs.[203] Modern analysis has shown the virus to be particularly deadly because in animal trials it triggers an overreaction of the body's immune system (cytokine storm).[79] The strong immune reactions of young adults were postulated to have ravaged the body, whereas the weaker immune reactions of children and middle-aged adults resulted in fewer deaths.[205]

  • That's a great point. What are his benefits in detail? Meaning, how much is:

    • his salary
    • his stipends, if any
    • his medical benefits including any payments, minimums, yearly allowances, etc.
    • bonus for being chairmain?
    • gifts or benefits from his campaign or donors
  • I had a printer that I used that was offline. It was accidentally put online and it bricked. My day had a printer that bricked when it became a little older. He bought the same one and it bricked immediately. It's planned obsolescence on the last 2.

  • Canon bricked 3 printers I owned. I will not own another canon. Love their cameras though.

  • That's just it, most people don't mind paying for a printer or ink. It's the way they charge insane prices for ink, and then make you do backflips to get a scan or one page out.
