One of the wittier guys in the trailer park I grew up in did that trick where it looks like you can pull one of your fingers off from one hand. As an 8 year old, that was fucking cool. Perhaps you could even augment it with some fake blood.

Another time he did the quarter behind your ear trick and then gave us the quarter.

To this day, I still remember him more than any shucker of a Milky Way or Babe Ruth candy bar. So yeah, go for it, make an impression.

Orange man learns new word this week, uses it everywhere.

Don’t stop the guac, don’t stop the guac.

Can we please just test the idea of storing them there first?

Good for Japan I guess? It’s typically the Conservatives who elect women first, because those are usually the ones who so vehemently oppose a woman candidate. It’s a bit of mind fuckery.

Now let’s see if they either set her up for success, or if she’s out sooner than a head of hakusai.

There are all sorts of classes available at top schools via opencourseware. You can take the highest tier courses that the US has to offer, and become educated. While not degree offering, it still would look great on a CV, if you can somehow prove you did the work.

Free books. A few years ago, I read a free electrical engineering book available on the internet, which I found fascinating. It has been a little helpful in practice as well, but I think it’s just cool to know how capacitors and motors work. Public libraries exist for a reason. Gutenberg is another option.

Many 2 year community colleges are now free tuition if you reside in the state.

And of course, there are still ways to get a degree cheap, if the paper is important to you. I finally landed at WGU 15 years ago and it was very reasonable, and has paid dividends on my original investment.

Federal workers will get back pay. You’re parroting the right’s messaging. People wanted the left to fight.

Because of how the people gave the right all of the levers of government last election, this is one of the few areas where dems have any power to wield - senate needs 60% to pass any funding legislation.

You wanted a battle, the dems took it to the mattresses. We should be praising them for being bold and we, the left, should be seeking out those government workers who are struggling the most and doing gofundme’s to care for them. This is a war and they are soldiers on the front lines, directly in the line of fire. We need to be their support regiment.

Conversely, the right needs to feel the pain of what a lack of federal government looks like, because a lot of them don’t value it at all, because they don’t understand how it serves them. They only see it as “protection money” that come out of their paycheck. For them, we need to find the union workers who left the left. We need to gain back the dirt farmers in Montana, the disenfranchised Hispanics in Southern Texas and in the burroughs of NYC and the suburbanite moms in Bucks County. Moreover, we need to fight like hell to show that we give a damn and have a spine and that we will, we will, fight for them.

Man, Pavel is an absolute badass. How’s this fuckstick even getting traction at all?

I don’t know how he did it. I’ve tried to grind up a little bit of airplane into my meals each day, but every time I even touch the fuel tank it gives me horrible, terrible gas.

Same thing with the windshield, just have never been too fond of seefood.

Porn. It’s going to be when they get rid of porn.

Sadly no, it’s going to be the junior people who are replaced because they lack tribal knowledge. Offshore will decrease as well. It’s already happening.

Please, feel free to enlighten us.

This has got to be about DT taking golden shares and 10% cuts from companies.

Kleptocracy may have been a better word, but like another poster above, this was probably to throw the c word at some republicans. They hate c words.

Didn’t he say he was going to solve this thing on day 1? Maybe he meant to say one day.

You know what though, I hope he does. I hope he solves it all in a way that allows us not to have WW3. I hope the rat fuck gets in the history books as having solved it. I don’t care who does, as long as it’s solved.

This shouldn’t be an issue. Both sides should stop trying to mandate this. There should be men’s sports, women’s sports and co-ed sports, even at the pro level. Give athletes the freedom of choice and let them sort themselves.

Oh come on! This is just her yet again pandering to the left of the party to get votes. Why won’t she just grow a spine and standup for the values that she stood for. /s

Of all the things we could be mocking Patel about, I’m really disappointed that this is what we have landed on.

Overcoming struggles with mental health and celebrating yourself should not be stigmatized. I thought we were the team that celebrates the pursuit of happiness, inclusion and self actualization. This to me seems to be a bad look.

Likewise, factor in medical benefits that US companies usually pay.

I just returned from a conference. AI was 60% of the conversation. Agents were 25%. They are coming. You’ll be able to have plain text conversations with bots that will automate a number of activities. Send out invoices for services you typically use (phone, internet, cable, rent, etc), follow ups when you’re late on payments. Personal assistants who book events and rooms for you. Helper bots that stay focused and help build systems that AI can understand and will have AI protocols built in.

Agents will be taking to agents that talk to other agents. Security will absolutely be an issue. It will be like how a mailing clearing house shares your information to other advertisers and sends you mail.

It is most certainly the lizard people. They are the worst by far.
