You need ships to get those trucks there in the first place. Also they have to be manufactured and bought.

It’s bizarre. Starmer was meant to be a breath of fresh air but I don’t know if there is any difference between the two primary parties any more.

I know that people do that but I’ve never had the courage.

I really thought that Gen Z was the future. I work with students at a university and there was a very strong change between them and the Millenials. Once the last Millenial graduated and it was full Gen Z, the entire atmosphere shifted and we didn’t have to deal with so many angry people anymore. They stopped having sex, drinking, and doing drugs. I thought that we finally achieved some sort of human development apogee.

Then we learned that they were flocking towards (i.e. algorithmed towards) the ultra right wing influencers and here we are. I still have hope that many will grow up, but we know that people don’t easily change their convictions. The human race may never be able to outgrow its monkey impulses.

He seriously wants to drop a big ol’ bomb somewhere then put up a mission accomplished banner. This is all in service if his need to be a hero. So very sad.

Hot take: it’s always been a problem, but people had enough fear of social reprisal to keep that stuff to themselves.

I specifically got one with no WiFi to avoid any issues like this.

Pelosi retired

That happened many decades ago

Don’t forget Bernie and AOC.

You missed it entirely and are now covering for that.

You’re making Obama’s point while pretending that he missed it.

Is that a JE reference?

I remember seeing an article about how the xlsx format description was several hundred pages in length.

It’s not trump, it’s the base.
