I have some earplugs I carry on my keyring that I originally bought for concerts. I don’t know if you can wear something like that or noise cancelling headphones, but that might help on occasion.

Whistling is where I’d draw the line though. That would make me the crazy person that would confront him directly. If he isnt receptive to knocking it off I would escalate to my boss or get hr back in the mix.

I was thinking more along the line of Goldilocks and the three bears. What is the language that feels just right to you (given the obvious issues with C and Python)

C is too cold. Python is too hot. What is just right?

It isn’t a specific number of hours.

Addiction is a neuropsychological disorder characterized by a persistent and intense urge to use a drug or engage in a behavior that produces natural reward, despite substantial harm and other negative consequences.

If it feels harmful seek help. If not, have fun.

I don’t trust her; she’s still a terrible Christian nationalist. I do agree on some of her more reasonable takes lately, but she still has an angle to stay in power.

Like keep saying things to challenge the bastards, but I’ll never support her.

I like Mamdani – he is well spoken and passionate about helping people. Jon Stewart would do a good job, but I don’t know if we need more celebrities.

Can’t have infinite growth without infinite toil.

If we can make it through to midterm elections I will worry then.

They have to wrestle for the job. Winner keeps it, loser walks.

You should listen to your doctor and your body when they are telling you “no”. Not trying to be preachy or shame you, but please consider your health and well-being.

People don’t rush to their polling places for “we’ll undo some of the damage” as a message. They need well spoken people to sell a lasting solution.

The older I get the less I want to overeat. After big meals now if I don’t take a walk I feel like absolute garbage.

Caffeine is bitter. That’s why they mask it with sweet flavors in soda. Just drink it during the day as a treat occasionally and have water (or something else) with dinner?

Fox news was playing up illegal immigration (remember the caravan?), and people are susceptible to propaganda.

This will be truth social again with a pre-existing user base and better algorithms. People will drop off, but they will probably boil the frog slowly to keep people around.

Maybe? He just wants to piss off his opposition and remind them that he is a big boy, and he’s in charge. His actual opposition just happens to be in the big blue cities that also have more progressive policies.

Honestly I think it is his wet dream for people to attempt violence against ice. If a few agents get killed he can ramp things up further and finish installing himself as a dictator because of domestic terrorism.

It’s very awkward. I think they mean you can stop the intent to cancel, so cancel the cancellation.

I’m chronically online, very progressive, and pretty in the weeds with politics. The only reason I know Ken Martin’s name is the story about him vs David Hogg.

Hogg’s message of removing ineffective democrats and fighting for progressive causes seems good to me.

What is Ken’s value proposition? I tried googling to see his platform or what he’s accomplished, and all I can find are articles about Hogg or him getting elected.

Is he the one sending Bernie/AOC out to fix relationships with red voters?

I canceled my no-ad $19/mo plan today. It was my last paid streaming service. Sucks I just don’t have TV anymore, but it feels like the only thing I can do about this situation. I guess I’ll set up a $19/mo donation to the ACLU instead.

Can’t speak my mind without fear on social media, can’t watch legacy TV, won’t shop at a growing number of companies. The only possible end in sight is midterm elections, but the left is taking a beating right now and has no strategy to fight back. The DNC refuses to support good candidates and falls back to ineffective elders.

Shits bad right now.
