I finally gave up when they started blanking out my home page as I turned off history… I don’t even miss it

yes, to those who want to pretend they do such things

perfection

I mean, you could have just said all that… we are not mind readers, you know?

I did read it, I just found questionable as it seems you are dismissing this as too old to care

Cassidy is still a Senator and a piece of shit, so what does it matter if the racist thing he said is 3 years old?

but the article is 3 years old.

So you think he has learned from his mistakes and improved his atrocious stance?

Story time:

I started taking my kid skiing when he was six, the drive is about 45 mins each way so after the second of third trip he asked me to tell him a story while in the car.

I started telling him all stories I knew but sooner than later ran out, so I started summarizing books and movies I had seen and at some point The Imitation Game came up.

My son was amazed how this man, through just intelligence and dedication was able to accomplish so much. The story stuck with him and a few days later he asked me, in front of his 4 year old sister, what award was given to Turing for such a big accomplishment.

Without thinking ahead, my sarcastic ass just blurted out, “well, the gov discovered he was gay and threw him in jail”. To this, my son follows up with “what’s gay?”

So I straightened my thoughts a bit not to fumble this one and said, in the most neutral tone I can muster, “usually boys like girls and girls like boys, but sometimes boys like boys and girls like girls, and that is called being gay”

My son think about this for like 5 seconds and then replies “that’s not something to go to jail for!” and my daughter completes “jail is for people that are dangerous to other people”

Right then and there I knew we are definitely not born the horrible people we sometimes become… it is ALL taught and learned through life. The best shot I have to make a difference in the world is to not screw up my kids.

PS: ski story time had continued until today. I now have to read new books to tell while we go skiing or any other long road trip. I really love it and it had turned my kids into big readers… specially my daughter who has almost turned into The Paper

Meh, that’s not real competition… the big one just collude

Carney has done nothing but roll over and present after winning the election… the boycott has been entirely carried out by the people of Canada

it’s not panicked, it’s just a rejection of monopolistic practices… but you illustrate my point fantasticly by equating consumer rejection to panick… can’t escape consumerism, eh?

right now? nothing because they already have a practigal monopoly… due, in great part, by the “it’s not so bad” crowd who continue to tolerate shitty corpo behaviour until “oh shit, it’really bad now”

wow, gorgeous… I wish I can get to that skill level, or to 98 hehehe

if you had any real patriotism, you would not be this complaisant as your country is flushed down the toilet

This is typical behaviour of morons… they make up skills they do not have to feel important. It is a continuation of the reason why morons believe conspiracy theories so easily, it gives them a sense they are special somehow and “got it” when others are “missing it”

Exactly the same reason cops claim to be able to “know” if someone is high just by looking at them

Things are fine for now

famous call to inaction that brought us to the shitty situation we face today

Fuck Google

But if the framework of the law that allows Trump to deploy the National Guard is based on having an actual emergency and not because the moron-in-chief felt like it, then a bogus emergency does not met the mark (not been a real emergency and all)… therefore, his order is illegal

Now, if you are telling me that a president can occupy DC with the National Guard because they felt like it (i.e. no actual emergency needed), then it means you were already living in a fascist regime even before it became as obvious as it is today

To each their own… I have tried using AI to code simple stuff to just give up in an hour as I gauge it would have taken me less than that to just code it myself.

At the moment, the best I can use it for is to remind me of syntax, get me some references and/or produce some fake data to test. To that I say, it is useful, just not worth the money or the harm to the planet… much less giving any more of our data and privacy to the tech bros

Again, even if the justification is 100% bogus??

This sounds like yet another move of the goal post to justify inaction

No, it just avoids the typical Murican scene where a person can’t even say they feel sorry for others as that may land them on the shitty end of a lawsuit
