Jesus is coming…look busy!

I’ve been waiting 30 years for industrial solutions but it is obvious that marketing and advertising to maintain the status quo of legacy companies is still a better roi.

This is a regulatory issue not a market failure.

Also I’m sure plastic recycling on a large scale is just around the corner. The plastic packaging on my plastic products keeps saying so. (/s)

He already started, this is why he is the size of two mortal men. He hasn’t reached his final form

Tubbs hates our troops and America. I remember a time when he would have been torn to shreds for this.

I thought it was because the campaign hemorrhages cash and they can’t afford it. Seems like they are trying to spin this as some kind of plan.

Probably also includes counseling or psych treatment for depression and anxiety and suicidality related to this plus preventing doctors from using preferred names or pronouns while also closing resources that these kids could have turned to for community support. The cruelty is the point.

Except nazis. They can fuck off.

The north makes, the south takes

Seriously. The whole lot of them should be out enjoying their time, playing with their great grand kids. Why they would even want to stay is beyond me (unless they’ve been enjoying themselves this whole time which is probably the way it is).

The worst part is it shows a failure to pass on the right skills because they don’t trust the next generation to lead.

Yeah, occam’s says it’s a political ploy. We are literally discussing candidates and how they present themselves. To legitimately bring in mental health seems a stretch.

Well yeah, but maybe both? They probably offered him a talking head show already.

*edit aaaaand the guy above says he has his tv show

Would you put someone “just nuts” in front of a tv camera? But really, I’ve never known the gop to just roll with whomever, their messaging is tightly controlled. If he is up there it’s for a reason.

Neither, I think his job is to absorb the negative attention so T looks less unhinged or maybe separate off the crazier magas.

They are doing it on purpose. He’s 38 years old, no one is letting him near the presidency. But these over the top statements are intended to make some other candidate look like not the craziest guy in the room.

Yes, that’s it

I just read Nexus, which is called post cyberpunk.

Nexus trilogy. It takes place on Earth, present day, a young neurologist discovers that a drug is actually nano machines and gives people the ability to share thoughts, communication, memories, and experiences. The researcher struggles to decide if this is good for all of humanity. Very good descriptions of technology, hacking, programming, exciting action (US gov is trying to reign in the nano machines.

The ultimate topic is transhumanism as technology gives us bigger than human abilities and posthumanism, where the changes we make now qualify us as so different in skills and abilities that we are no longer human.

I just finished the first book and I enjoyed it a lot.

You’re right. The median appears to be around 50-60k which is pretty good. I thought they were much lower. I guess scrap that idea. Seems like they got inflation-adjusted wages over the past 20 years while the rest of us just got inflation and a smaller box of cookies.

I just had a weird idea. What if we flip it. Pay cops more. Better vacations, more support. Sure pay them for the cameras, call it whatever. Tax the rich and pay these working class people that kinda seem to be exploited. Maybe they’d be less angry and less likely to take it out on us.

Isn’t their pay absolute crap? Like, I don’t have a problem setting a minimum salary of $65k for cops and teachers too. I’m pretty sure the averages are well below this. I guess it never occurred to me to think that some cops are facing food and living security issues themselves if they have a family and barely make $35k.
