You know, I have bloody-minded thoughts about these scumbags too, the kind of things that might earn me a visit from law enforcement if I spelled them out, but then I think about the negative impact actually doing those things would have on anyone’s psyche. Instead, we should take their money and sentence them to work on an organic farm for the rest of their lives.
And yet the stock is still falling ¯_(ツ)_/¯
So, he’s a politician who tries to do good things for the citizenry and uphold the law?
So, SOP for Chicago?
In all seriousness, I remember Adam Davidson saying that he was looking into the Trump real estate shenanigans with the Russian oligarchs. When he talked to a prosecutor about why the obvious corruption wasn’t being pursued the response was that basically all major construction in every American city was at least partially a vehicle for money laundering. I would be truly stunned if that criminality didn’t flow into the landlord business.
And maybe that would lead future presidents to consider very carefully the kinds of actions they take.
Ope, didn’t catch that. Well, a month in Greece with free room and breakfast would be a pretty affordable vacation, and five hours a day with cats isn’t terrible.
It’s a summer program. Not sure if they let you say “I’ll be there for a week” but I would bet on making it a vacation and assuming you need some money of your own.
I could not agree more. It’s pretty cheap to spin up a site, the content is what’s expensive (and the legal coverage.) A co-op would allow the reporters to distribute risk and revenue.
“Journalism is printing something that someone does not want printed. Everything else is public relations.”
Orwell understood that power and authoritarianism were the issue, not so much the supposed ideology underpinning the powerful.
I was being like 99% facetious and the 1% serious has more to do with how eMacs updates are distributed as compared to Notepad++. To your point, any non-vetted packages would be a huge source of risk, and even vetted packages should be monitored.
eMacs wasn’t compromised!
Okja from the movie Okja. Super pigs would presumably produce super pork.
I don’t know for certain but given the fact I’ve seen German riot cops with helmets and shields I’d bet the answer is “yes of course.”
Or “proceeds from us.” “Precede” means coming before, “proceed” means originating from.
Studies have shown community is a key component in reducing addiction. A society that accommodated different sleep patterns would probably lead to less tiredness (I am a night owl but my job is 8-5, for example.)
Society doesn’t change your neurochemistry, that’s true. But it can change what your neurochemistry has to contend with. Consider a basic inorganic chemistry scenario: some materials dissolve in water much more readily when the water is hot. Does that mean they are insoluble, or poorly soluble, in cold water? Not at all. The environment impacts that behavior.
When I read a summary of a film before I go to watch it, I don’t assume that I have absorbed the intensity of an actor’s performance. I have been disappointed too many times by excessively long YouTube videos to spent an hour and a half without knowing what the general content of the video is.
ITT: deliberately unhelpful comments.
You know why text summaries are good? If I read a thesis statement and go “yup, I agree with the thesis and know enough about the major points raised to skip this” I save NINETY FUCKING MINUTES of my life. Alternatively, if I see something in the summary that piques my interest, I can watch the video to get more detail.
The overwhelming narrative has been “this (ICE raids, other Trump administration fuckery) is a distraction from the Epstein files!” Hence “if.”
Fair, I was more replying to the idea a guillotine is “too clean” which implies that some sort of torturous death is preferred. I agree that in the process of any revolution a guillotine (or a bullet) may be necessary.
