  • Hats... Why they are called beurocrats.

    But the ones who are leaving are largely close to retirement and would rather not deal with bullshit to their own job, and I respect that. The ones who aren't leaving probably see this as a great stepping stone for their career, as they get to enforce rules most previous position holders were unaware of.

    Federal government is just like corporate jobs in that there is a game to play - the game is fundamentally different in that it's based on law and office mission, rather than profit and deceit.

  • Which part? Convergent evolution towards a dolphin? (Dolphins and ichthyosaurus) Or the question of Dolphin to Crab or Crab to dolphin?

    We gotta wait another hundred million years to find out that answer.

  • I've got a RAV4 that will last quite a while if I need space. In 6-12 months, hopefully after I buy I home, I'm going to need a car that says "single software engineer dad with midlife crisis money" and my boy loves the interior of the i4 coupe.

    I'll look at the i5 though

  • That BMW iDrive looks good but if it's all app and touchscreen based... Imma skip.

    TBH though, all the damn nice EVs are touch screens or bubble crossovers.

    Why the fuck do I want to drive a bubble. I want to drive an electric car. Take the Ford Mustang, put the electric parts in it, and don't turn it into a crossover. Take the Toyota 86, put electric parts in it. Do not turn it into a cross over.

    Idk take any fucking car that looks like a fun car and goddamn it, put electric parts in it, don't add touchscreens, and don't stick your lips on the wand of soap and blow into the frame making it a goddamn bubble crossover.

  • I've said before - have you actually seen him in a situation where he'd be vulnerable like that?

    There is a level of rich, and I don't know if it's when you make hundreds of millions or your first billion, but at some point it just becomes easier to only travel to secure venues by escort.

    The security prices these guys pay must be insane to us, but likely a drop in the ocean for them.

    Why do you think the flight tracking bothered them so much? Because it broadcast arrival and departure times, and destination. That allows planning.

    If the public doesn't know when you arrive and when you leave, or how you arrive or how you leave, that's just a bit of added security.

  • I don't know how you guys keep finding Saddam like this but goddamnit don't stop.

    They are fucking hilarious.

    This one's particularly great - cause the first image he's holding a literal mouse, so you ain't looking for Saddam to show up in his goddamn arm. Between that and the "Chile" problem a little bit ago.

    Goddamn this meme is like my life blood

  • Man.

    He's like if Dr. Evil and every bond villain were combined into one, then poorly written in a Sci-fi channel special as the wealthiest man in the world.

    He doesn't actually do anything but be rich and say stupid shit, and for some reason people keep going along with it

  • I knew a second Trump administration was going to be a horror show, but I'm pretty sure Putin orchestrated a lot of this in revenge of the US using capitalism to crush the USSR.

    He's now using capitalism to crush the US. And he's barely doing anything, he just had to help get a spoon fed capitalist elected and the capitalist would handle the rest.

  • Hmmm. Hmmm? I didn't really think about incarcerated before. But I suppose if you were imprisoned for a law you don't agree with, the way to change it is voting.

    By keeping prisoners from voting, you prevent law from changing.
