Yes, because it’s totally normal for apartments to cost over $1 million/1.5b won.

I think you missed the part where he wants drastic reform within the agency on top of axing the ghouls running it. He’s much more likely to succeed politically with those types of demands than just straight up defunding the entire thing.

They voted for Trump because he was promising a radical shake up in the government. They were down with that idea because the status quo for the last 3 decades has been garbage for common folk.

You know who else was promising a radical shake up? Bernie. I lived in red ass Iowa at the time he was running, and everyone I talked to on both sides of the spectrum loved him. He even won the primary there.

I meant running in the sense he’s actually governing, which he isn’t. He’s a dictator that’s terrorizing his own citizens while everything in the country is crumbling. What little governing IS actually occurring, is being done by his cronies that are implementing their own agendas, e.g. that idiotic tax break bill they created last year.

And this is all because the 1% would rather burn the world down than pay their fair share back to society. They bought up all the media outlets and platforms and sowed as much division among the middle and lower income brackets as much as possible to prevent us from uniting against them.

I feel like crazy, because signs of his dementia have been clearly obvious for several years now. Why is anyone surprised by this nonsensical letter?

He is not “running” the country, his cronies are. They let him pop off with stupid shit like this because his handlers have learned that if they don’t let him do shit like this while their machinations are carried out in the background, he turns on them and they get kicked out of his cult. So they loot and pillage the country while their cult leader goes off on his tangents and pursues his weird/ridiculous/frightening vendettas. M

People are extremely brand loyal nowadays and I’d even argue it’s the worst it’s been in recent history. Just look how addicted people are to the MAGA cult identity and Elon Musk’s products and branding.

That would require them to actually do their fucking jobs. Congress nowadays just takes orders from the dictator in office.

This is known. The charismatic appeal of Trump to his supporters is absolutely baffling to those of us that have any semblance of common sense. I say this as a barely non-retarded person.

I wouldn’t be surprised if google/YouTube just bans all VPN IPs. They already make you sign in lately if your IP range has been “shadow banned.”

I believe it. I had grandparents in Appalachia that didn’t even get indoor plumbing until the mid-1990s, and they were the first in their area. There are many places with some insane levels of poverty in the US that the state and federal governments just give zero fucks about.

They showed up to a daycare wearing fucking masks?? What in the actual fuck is wrong with these people? That would make my kids feel super uncomfortable/nervous.

Also, all daycares look quiet during the winter on days it is too cold for the kids to play outside. Just like fucking schools. Not to mention, they all do lunchtime and nap time between 1100 - 1330, so they turn the lights down/off and draw the blinds in most of the rooms because of that. My own kid’s daycare does the same thing. God, these people are fucking morons.

3/4 of the US outside major metros should be classified as a developing country. We have many areas that barely have functional plumbing, let alone any other type of developed infrastructure.

100% this. The guy was literally a consultant and a developer. It’d just be bad business for him to outright dismiss AI without having actual hands on experience with said product. Clients want that type of experience and knowledge when paying a business to give them advice and develop a product for them.

I don’t think greed is the only answer. There is a legitimate demand for food, and pests are constantly adapting to various pesticides. I think the answer is greed and some other nuance.

As for the DMV thing: You sweet summer child.

Lol, dude, I’m in my early 40s. Go to the DMV and try bribing a government official and report back. Please. I beg of you.

Um, having direct access to pull my government photo ID is a huge deal. Lots of online services require photo ID or other more in-depth verification to pull loans and stuff. So yes, this new vector IS a serious concern.

And paying someone $50 at any DMV? C’mon, man, that sounds like some unfounded bullshit. Hardly anyone is going to risk a cushy government job with solid benefits and great hours for fucking $50, let alone the potential risk of going to jail.

Yeah, people already browse porn with zero privacy precautions, so linking their fetishes to them would be trivial. The main concern is having yet another privacy vulnerability vector for identity theft.

Jfc, he spent $20 million of taxpayer dollars to defend himself in court? Why the fuck do politicians get to use public funds to legally defend themselves?

Could always go the fake nail route. My SO has been doing that for a couple years. It’s way easier than painting and you can get all sorts of cool designs and patterns, especially for holiday themed ones (hers right now have glow in the dark ghosts and pumpkins on them).
