Bummer

Yeah, irony is lost on children so once a slang word that relies on being ironic starts being used by children it is pretty much dead.

I dont mind new slang if it can be understood from context. When people started using Yeet it was pretty clear what it meant.

In the other hand my kids friends started saying everything was "so sigma" and it was clear that they didn't know what it actually meant. Even when I looked on urban dictionary, I still couldn't figure out what the definition was based on how it was being used.

Depends on how complex it is. Ever see the XML behind SharePoint? 🤮

Can someone do a quick ELI5 on who the bad guys are here? So much crazy shit going on all over the world I'm having trouble keeping up with who the fascists are.

Bummer they got out of the Olde Waste Paper business, I really needed some olde waste paper.

The buttercream gang.

Counterpoint: Let's remove the borders all together because tribalism is stupid.

Hey, look at that, more shit Boeing can't do right. Who would have guessed Boeing would fuck up again?

Awh. Anyway...

I use white electrical tape. It drastically reduces the light brightness but allows enough though to know the light is on.

A lot yes, but my parents are very religious, anti-abortion, anti-gay, but vote blue because they still believe that the important thing is to treat people right. Their belief is that God should be the judge of others actions not them.

Thank you for being more articulate in your explanation of the age issue than I was. I agree whole heartedly. 64-65 is retirement age, I like to see presidents that are experienced but not at what would normally be the end of their working years.

Personally, I'd like to see a max cap for ALL elected officials at 70.

Funny, we said that the first time too. And the second.

Insulting somebody because of their race is never OK. There of plenty of other things to insult this piece of shit for instead of race.

Old, yes, they are both old. Not elderly, but old. The minimum age for a present is 35. I would very much like to start seeing younger presidents that will be more in touch with what current issues really are and can energize a younger generation of voters.

And yes that was exactly my point on having a white man as an anchor.

What to do when tribbles get out of hand.

It is obviously a cycle we need to break. That said, a campaign has to make choices that lead to victory. Kamala is already a person of color and a woman. If she wins, it would be only the second time to have a non-white President and the first woman.

The fact is that while many us are hungry for change to the old norms, many will be more conservative to change (and I don't mean in the crazy MAGA way). Having an old white guy on the ticket acts as an anchor for those who are too scared to fully jump into all out change, ensuring that those votes aren't lost to the other side.

In a written statement to the police, she has alleged that her husband "chained her and left her in the forest to die without food or water".

Hey, look at that, "mystery" solved within four paragraphs.

Paradox seems to be proving that they are no longer capable of developing video games.

I really think there is a 0% chance that he hasn't fucked Ivanka.

Yeah, that's the funniest part to me. The vast majority of people, world wide, had no idea CrowdStrike even existed. Only those in It in commercial or government would have possibly known who they were. Now the world's introduction to CrowdStrike is it setting everything on fire. Talk about bad PR.

Not that it will really matters, I figure that the lawsuits for damages will be in the billions if not trillions. Their best bet will be to declare bankruptcy and rebrand under a different name.

Vote! That's how she wins. You don't need the New York Times to tell you that.

I really don't think it would happen with another celebrity and if it did I would consider those people cultish too.

Plus it is recycled. They would only replace what is lost due to evaporation or after a drain and cleaning.

Well, my opinion is that: 1. It is largely a popularity contest and Trump is still insanely popular with his crowd and Biden is not popular in general 2. The Maga crowd will certainly vote, so the Democrats would need to be united and show up to beat that. With any real doubt about Biden, I think a large enough to matter amount of Dems will either not vote or vote for other.

We are in a damned if you do damned if you don't situation. Three months ago I would have said Biden would most likely win by a very slim margin again. Now I would say there is a real chance for it to go the other way. However, replace him, and like you said that person is also very unlikely to win at this point.

What is the temperature in Barcelona right now? I would imagine getting hit with a water gun would feel pretty nice on a hot day of walking around doing touristy stuff.

She looks like this guy with a clipped on face. Such a ghoul inside and out.

I do. The same thing we have been doing with it this entire time storing it in underground bunkers. Unlike the propaganda, the waste from nuclear is rather small and unlike pollution from fossil fuel plants, it is easily contained however much longer living. The benefit still out weigh the cost of managing disposal. The reality is that there is plenty of uninhabited land on the planet where nuclear waste can be stored and isolated for thousands of years. One day, hopefully, we will have fusion power which won't generate waste. And perhaps, someday we will also figure out how to permanently disposal of the nuclear waste. In the mean time, storage is a fine solution that far out weighs polluting the atmosphere with burning things.

See, now I didn't say anything about eugenics for the poor or dumb. I just said I supported the idea of eugenics. I would be very happy to start with the wealthy and powerful first. (Although one might make a good argument that there is a significant overlap between the rich and the dumb)

Well, watching the world burn and 8 billion people contributing to that, I can get behind some eugenics.

If all fossil fuel power plants were converted to nuclear then tech power consumption wouldn't even matter. Again, it was the oil industry that railroaded nuclear power as being unsafe.

Looks like somebody is itching to be a dictator.

It really is amazing how shitty dad's have been throughout most of human history.

"Freeloader" would also have been an acceptable choice.

My preference would be for them to flip the ticket. Put Kamala as first and him as vice. I don't really care for her, but it would be worlds better than another Trump reign of terror. Flipping the ticket would be the least destabilizing move and would appease the concerns of age while also keeping him on for those that didn't like her (or a woman).

Because he is corrupt as fuck.
