I would assume they were placed on a bedside table pointed in the general direction of the fucking.

But still.

I had been at work for two hours, but yes.

I missed the “X” in that title, and read “EFF is leaving the Electronic Freedom Foundation,” and was very confused.

No-one makes a stronger case for people getting away from American products than our president.

A good point.

Wait, how many of those do we have? I’d expect us to have at least 10,000 given how we are supposed to be the bastion of goddamn freedom. Can hardly claim to be the stalwart defender of democracy if we don’t have enough ammo for at least a month.

And if we don’t have ammo, maybe we shouldn’t be starting wars with nations that have a military.

This is your doing, buddy boy.

It’s important to note that this specific Nazi is a US Senator, though. Helps illustrate how deep the rot goes.

I was an enlisted aircraft maintainer for a term of service, and I don’t recall ever being in need of aa box cutter.

My opinion stands, however. They want knives, let them have knives.

“Corruption” that entertains junior enlisted should be viewed with a much less harsh eye than, for example, corruption that enriches senior officers, or contractors, or elected officials.

It’s not a good thing, but it’s not exactly what I’d call “important.” Plus, I’d be willing to bet it’s an artefact of the stupid budgeting system we use.

That waste heat is very humid, which causes corrosion and mold issues.

If my credit card debt vanished, it would measurably improve the quality of the rest of my life. I’m not gonna just pile the debt back up, and not having to make the payments would free up money I could save for retirement or emergency.

Has he ever apologized for anything? Ever? Even sarcastically?

You know you can get sued without actually doing anything wrong, don’t you?

I think they have a legitimate concern, and a few protections to keep them from having to go to court (again) every time they write someone a ticket might be in order.

But that shouldn’t be enough to override the need to hold police accountable for their actions.

Lies.

Trump lies about ICE shooting a woman.

Quite a few, starting with, “how is that relevant?”

Just because someone is the moral equivalent of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch does not inherently mean that they are also the intellectual equivalent of the same.

True enough. Used to be, we were the only game in town, and we knew it.

Our smarter presidents tried to make sure we remained the best option, or at least a good option. Trump, as you have noted, makes is the worst option.

Does anyone in Washington understand that a “deal” generally includes giving the other guy something they want, not just demanding things that you want?

That’s kind of what I mean by “sane leadership.” Leaders that know they are there to serve the people, and that they will be removed if they don’t.

Of course, that requires sane voters, too.

We can do that after we get rid of Trump. If we let Trump do it now, he will turn it into a circus, gain some political cover from it, and we will never know for sure who actually did what.

Once we have sane leadership again, then we can do it properly.
