From my perspective, he's still salty about her making fun of him back in the 90s on her daily TV talk show. He made it worse by not letting it go and taking out full page ads in the New York Times in response. She would then show the ads to the audience and read it on the air. Then she would make new jokes about what a giant man-baby he was.

That was enough to convince me, then, that Donald Trump was not a good person. That was about 25 years ago. I have not changed my mind about him. In fact, I dislike him much more now than I did then. It astounds me that anyone voted for that moron.

Genocide is not exclusive to Jewish victims. It is not anti-Semitic to say that.

Genocide can be committed by anyone. It is not anti-Semitic to say that.

Genocide is being committed by Israel's military against the people in Gaza. It is not anti-Semitic to say that... but it is sad.

It is even sadder that my government, instead of stopping them, continues to help Israel commit genocide.

Stunning? Don't you mean predictable? Trump has been a puppet for Russia the entire time. He takes Russia's side every chance he gets! How is this not obvious at this point?

Translation: "Musk, and other rich people, will have to pay a tiny bit more in taxes if Harris wins." Aww poor baby! Fuck that guy!

So instead of laughing and letting it go, Musk makes sure everyone knows he is a dipshit.

The lack of a person watching you check out does not mean no one is watching. They absolutely are and you are being recorded the entire time you are in the store.

Unfortunately, this knuckle-dragger is not capable of admitting, perhaps even understanding, that he brought all of this on himself. Everything bad that happens to him is someone else's fault. Everything good that happens was his idea.

I am of the opinion that closed-minded thinking is only part of the issue. The other part is there are well financed interst groups who work hard to create and encourage division in order to prevent regular folks from working together for a common cause.

The reason is simple: convince people to fight amongst themselves and they will be too busy to notice how much they are being ripped off by the tiny handful of rich people at the top.

I don't know what the current pay rate is for that job, but I am certain that if the pay was double of whatever it is now the worker shortage would suddenly vanish!

The bar in the picture is one kilogram or about $65,000 US dollars. Ten bars would buy a very nice house in my area.

Unfortunately, as we have already seen within the Republican party, threats work! If you are a secretary of state right now, you have two choices:

A) upholding Article 14 sec 3 because Trump engaged in an insurrection and is disqualified from ever holding elected office. But by doing so you, your coworkers, and your friends and family will be having to endure constant protests, verbal abuse, and death threats for the foreseeable future
or
B) Not doing that, hoping that he loses again (as he should), and the crazy people mostly leave you alone.

Which one would you pick? The real answer is probably not as easy as simply following the law.
I know which one I hope I would choose, but I can't say for sure I would do it.

edited: because I was not paying enough attention and wrote the wrong job title. (oops)

Those holes are almost certainly made by a woodpecker. That probably isn't the real problem though. That wood is almost guaranteed to be infested with insects.
