a little weird

Lol – “sorry you were displaced. Have you tried learning to code?”

Hopefully she’s off the list for VP now.  I would love to see him pick Tulsi or Nina Turner but I’m not sure he would pick either one.  Even friends of mine who are not completely clueless about politics respond with “who?” when I suggest Nina would be a good VP.  :(

I have trouble believing that one.  For one, I can’t believe that McConnell is that high.  For two, as much as I hate Rand Paul, I can’t believe that he’s that much less popular than McConnell.  It would be interested to know the breakdown of who was polled.

Well said.  Let’s cut the military budget down to a reasonable amount before we talk about even more cuts to science.

I personally prefer Paula Jean Swearengin who is also running against Capito but I would be happy with either one.

I don’t care which one we pick as long as we stay on one time year round.  I hate changing the clocks twice a year and the adjustment that requires.  It’s a pain in the ass disruption for no good reason.

I hope you feel better soon!

I’m not getting logged out as much this time as the time this happened before but still enough to be annoying.

I haven’t noticed a particular pattern but the way I generally use the site is that I go to the Latest section and open stories I’m interested in into new tabs – sometimes I’ll have several posts open at the same time.  It’s usually not…[Read more]

How disappointing.

Bernie needs to pick someone for VP that is strongly anti-war and even less appealing to the centrists than he is.  I think Tulsi would be awesome even though there are things about her I don’t like.  We have seen examples of how the MIC is perfectly willing to assassinate people they don’t want in power.

I’m not a fan of Yang but this is B.S.  There are so many laws out there that seem to be designed to keep outsiders and third parties off the ballot.  The people should be able to cast their vote for who they want.

That is horrible.  :(

Secret?

Hmm this seems like a very one sided article.  I have participated in the GO365 program at several different employers.  At all of them, it was always presented as an optional program that would give you a monthly discount on your plan if you chose to participate but it was certainly not mandatory.  So in other words, participation in the pr…[Read more]

It’s even worse than not wanting to provide broadband in rural areas.  Now the telecom companies are trying to make it so they don’t have to offer landline service – which is especially critical in rural areas where cell service sucks.

I wonder how they’re going to pay for that?  It’s funny how they can always find money for something like this but we constantly have underfunded schools, libraries, etc and an epidemic of homelessness and other social ills.

I’m not familiar with the Bloomberg story, but they definitely use prison labor as call centers.  I remember a story about that from years ago.  There was outrage, not on behalf of the use of prison slave labor, but because prisoners were processing credit card transactions over the phone, looking into customer accounts, etc.  People were pi…[Read more]

Yep, and she wouldn’t have had to pressure Bernie to do the right thing with respect to appointments.

Viva la resistance!

That’s great, but the impeachment hearings did not reveal his “moral deficiencies”.  They were right there to see from the very beginning.  But better late than never I suppose.
