She’s really close to 50% of a Metric Scaramucci.

It’s looking like a 1/2 Mucci. That’s pretty impressive on the ineptitude scale. They’re really moving the Overton Window on just how dumb they can be while the cult smiles and nods.

Putin can’t beat the Ukranians, but he can sure beat the weak in France (Le Pen), Germany (AfD), UK (Reform), Canada (Alberta), and US (Republican/Pedophile party).

Just like the AfD in Germany today.

I subscribed to the RadioShack battery of the month program. Just call me John Hancock of Pennsylvania Ave.

Except that’s not what the data shows: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Social_Mobility_Index

Wait… So all of those rich and billionaires in socialist countries are just figments of imagination?

Also, have you looked at how terrible the US upward mobility rankings are now? Under Capitalism you aren’t likely to move anywhere unless you’re born into it.

Edit: I brought receipts: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Social_Mobility_Index

Ironically enough, I wish we had stockholm Democratic Socialism while also suffering Stockholm Syndrome.

If they’re Internet connected, we can have one person do it at corporate and save money! /s

A sacnt fewer minutes, and only on Fridays.

Let’s destroy our environment, kill our children, give ourselves brain damage, and enslave ourselves to paying for the privilege to save a few minutes in transit.

Cars fucking suck.

He’s been hallucinating things since before AI made it cool. A true trendsetter. The best.

Mark me shocked. Well, not too shocked.

Of course they’re a bunch of lying fucktards. They want power over other people because they’re failures in life (either by their own efforts and/or society failing us all). They don’t care what lies they tell to get it.

That kid’s got wheels! I thought he was ninja running at first, but it was just the handcuffs.

So a combination of bribery for votes and a pathetically small amount? $100 isn’t even a half cart of groceries anymore in the US.

I have a an automatic $2/mo donation to Wikipedia set up. Of all of the sites I’m more than willing to support with hard currency, it’s the one.

$2 isn’t much, but if we all do it, it’ll keep the best online resource for general information we have on the planet operating. Very worth it.

The secret ingredient is either racism, homophobia, or religious hatred. It’s like choose your own adventure with these people.

Meet the new boss, just like the old boss.

Some 25 years ago when the RIAA was going apeshit over online sharing of music they were happily suing people left and right.

At some point they argued that no computer should ever make a copy of music without a license. The opposition proceeded to demonstrate how computers work. They make many copies of data files while processing them in the CPU, RAM, cache, omin temp files, etc. The judge did temporarily order that only one canopy could be made, but after the education, said fine: if the RIAA wants to let it stand, then they can’t distribute via any computer systems anywhere by their own rules.

In the end, the case was dropped and computers got to keep processing data as per normal.

I’m in Berlin, Germany.

Inside the Ringbahn (a circle route train around the city), most of the city is inanely walkable.

Within a few minutes walking if my apartment we have everything for daily needs. Within 15 minutes by public transit we have everything else.

It’s wonderful.

At the moment I’m having to wait outside a Starbucks in Northern Idaho (family obligations). The sheer pain of the traffic, pollution, noise, and knowing that I can’t walk to anything in a reasonable timeframe (car mandatory life) is awful. It’s my first time back to the US in a year and it’s convincing me minute by minute that I made the correct choice by leaving.
