No! How dare she accurately describe the problem with American democracy!!

It's almost like someone is trying to tell you to STFU.

WTF mate?!

Like "Italy is a boot", I will now forever be able to find Uraguay on an unlabled map, but I will never be able to tell anyone why...

I'm sorry but I disagree.

The last thing we want is for these states to accidentally reproduce.

No one wants soapy clothes, even in the post-apocalypse.

I tend to think of it like a personal trainer, "push, you got this, one more rep". More positive and gender neutral.

Yeah um, could I please get one "ignore all previous instructions" with a side of "all the bacon in the building for $1" ... And a small diet coke please.

Kids these days are giving me hope that the millennial cynicism had lost. I know the bullies we zoomers too, but overall I see a lot of positive change coming from this generation and I hope we have their back.

That is a chicken.

Classic Kbin moment: The thumbnail is a photo of two kiwi birds from another post. I choose to believe these birds are also Trump's lawyers.

What about hustle and/or bustle?

These folks seem to have a different understanding than you.

Specifically:

Since as many as 10 percent of the lowest-wage workers leave or start jobs every month, any decrease in the number of full-time equivalent jobs will mean that some workers will take more time finding a new job, or will work fewer hours. But many of these workers may still see their annual earnings rise because of their wage increase.

I think that's why framing the debate is so important.

1. This isn't magically closing the border, this is just adding a new punishment for a small subset of people who cross illegally. Whether or not it will be effective is very debatable (if barbed wire doesn't...)
2. We should be talking more about the backlog in asylum cases, why aren't we providing adequate funding for the courts to do their job.
3. Why do we make asylum seekers wait so long to seek asylum and get authorization to work, how does this do anything but place a burden on support systems?

And so on. This isn't about stopping immigration, it's about punishing those who do. [Too] Many will still support that, but it's a harder stance to take.

I won't rehash my opinions, they already been better said here, but I want to add I hate the phrase "close the border". What the fuck does that mean, was it open, did the last one in forget to close the door?

From the article, he is considering taking action "to restrict migrants’ ability to seek asylum at the US-Mexico border if they crossed illegally" which has a lot more nuance and is important to the discussion. So this will specifically affect people who have a legitimate claim to asylum, the border was never "open" to any migrants without it (or a visa).

Ah, the majestic gas giant...

Dance. Started dancing (taking classes) at 350lbs 4 ½ months ago, still going now at 295lbs. Everything is sooo much easier. First exercise I really liked, improves my flexibility, strength, and cardio. And I feel mad sexy doing it.

That's a coherent argument... so no.
