Dunno man, he and Elon are having quite the "will they, won't they ruin America" moment right now. He'll be solo for a bit.

He needs a place to be buried.

Nah, he cares about that holiday, not ones that celebrate minorities. So I'm guessing some time again this month in opposition to Pride, or Indigenous Peoples' Day will have some bullshit. Even though Google already got rid of that from their calendars and kept Columbus.

It's the gish gallop of news: do as much bullshit as possible so nothing can be effectively blocked or countered.

You don't think people aren't trying to unionize? Decades of anti-Union sentiment, "right to work" laws, fear of punishment for taking about pay (even though it's protected by the NLRB), etc. are at odds with it. Shit, slavery is still legal under the 13th amendment, the very same amendment that abolished it, thanks to a loophole. California tried to abolish prison slavery, and it failed.

Unionizing in the US isn't as simple as "let's do it". There are hurdles, and psychological traps, as well as tricks that employers can use to fire you to get around the law.

Even if you think you have a case, getting the resources to fight in court will be prohibitive. And any kind of measurable settlement to help embolden unionizing nationwide will be almost non-existent.

I'm not saying it's not a battle to avoid, but it's a Sisyphusian effort.

Auto blocked him once I knew he was there.

And I haven't played it in 9 years either. Not going back.

The ones that would stick around would likely be very racist. Consider that you don't even need to stay in earth, you can just travel the universe. Or just travel the world. You don't have gravity to help you, but passing thru solid matter isn't a problem either. You could check out the core, Iceland, Botswana, Jordan, Kentucky, whatever. So if they stay in Kentucky, they're gonna be super racist. But evidently not...

Yeah, knowing it just keeps happening can't be great for mental health...

Split water and food bowls by a good amount of space. Opposite sides of the room, or different rooms altogether. And more than 1 water bowl. Apparently these tricks are useful.

And to preempt any "all lives matter" bullshit:

Nazi lives don't matter

Yep.

Free Palestine.

Journalism doing things the right way would try this out. You investigate one thing, learn about another, and inform.

Conservative subreddit is

a) bitching about Kamala being inserted in without a primary, and

b) calling out the heinous* nature of the shooting

Such is the duality of idiots.

There's a legumes joke in there, but I dunno.

Bri'ish!

Spaghetti all'assassina is spicy. And awesome!

Should be a fucking crime. Punishable by hanging.

That's insanity!

I'll text you about calling, just in case you're busy. You text me back in case you didn't need to call. Which you prolly don't.
