Does the United States having food stamps and public education make it a socialist country?

It seems like there is a maximum level of failsons an empire can accumulate before it collapses.

RFK Jr is a third wave failson. Trump is a second wave failson.

Opinions on Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy?

Sounds like maybe what you don’t like is British humour.

Polls show her doing as well as Biden.

The thing that’s going to win this election for the democrats is abortion. Harris might be good on that aspect of the race.

It’s pretty disheartening. People had a better opinion of the economy when me and my friends could only get jobs that paid in experience for 5 years.

But in that case, even during the highest unemployment, most people still had their jobs so to them the only difference was things were cheaper, people were willing to do things for you for less money (or free of you’d tell your friends how helpful I was).

Lol, in that scenario picking a new VP requires confirmation from both house and Senate.

Do you think the house GOP would confirm anyone? Or keep the spot open and just have Speaker Johnson next in line?

How do we feel about a woman of color as president with the next in line being a christo-facist? What’s the presidential odds of assassination, 14%?

Many, many shitty scenarios. No clear answer as to what the right choice is and if we lose well always be second guessing what could’ve been.

Anyone telling you this is an easy choice, or is speaking with absolute confidence is full of shit.

Here’s the deal: these people aren’t being laid off because the company is losing money, they are being laid off because the company is not making as much money as it predicted it would last quarter.

Now, not making as much money as you thought while still being profitable is not a bad thing except for one person: the c-level executive.

The c-level has profit targets he needs to hit to unlock a huge bonus. Hundreds of thousands of dollars are at stake for him, that one individual.

So these hundreds of people aren’t losing their jobs so the company can thrive and be healthy. They’re losing their jobs so one person can make hundreds of thousands of dollars more on top of their existing salary which was always guaranteed to them.

Americans would rather vote for a pedophile than a weak old man

Maybe one not conducted by a former democratic press secretary

I would say the US got along better with China until American citizens started to get freaked out that there was another country that was becoming a bigger economic and military power than they were.

China can make one phone call and collapse the price of oil and gas?

I just know from the level I’ve worked at multiple companies that leadership doesn’t really care. DEI is another box to check for the shareholders to feel good about themselves.

I’m confused, are you saying places with DEI policies don’t actually hire more black or gay employees and just pretend like they do, or that they do hire more diverse employees but the management don’t really care about that and are just hiring more diverse employees because they think that protects them from lawsuits?

The Senate is currently divided in a way that makes passing such a significant change a monumental task. Even with a Democratic majority, the margins are slim, and not all Democratic senators are on board with the idea. Senators like Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema have expressed reservations about court-packing, making it highly unlikely that this is something Biden could just do.

That would be some very funny chaos

Lots of blame to spread around that year.

Remove any one of the factors and we likely get a different result.

Because what they really did was set themselves up as the ones who decide what is and isn’t an official act.

As long as there is a right-wing supreme court, any action by a republican president will be official and immune, but if a democratic president tried to throw their weight around in the same… They’ll get shut down.

Unfortunately that site is unusable. Doesn’t even remember where I left off.

I’ve got Wario World 4 and the PlayStation Harvest Moon on mine.

I would imagine there is serious talk about a monthly subscription for VI.
