Goddamned mentally deficient Prairies shooting themselves and their labour unions in the foot with all that Conservative Blue. Absolute idiocy.
For a really good riff on this same idea, I like "How to Lie With Statistics" by Darrell Huff, and it's all illustrated!
Great, easy to understand breakdown of how statistics can be manipulated.
I just feel sad for a person who's obviously got such strong opinions, but lacks the character or intelligence to put forward a plan to fix these things.
Reminds me of when my kids were younger and they would cry whenever something happened they didn't understand that they thought was unfair.
Yes, I can't predict any problems that might be caused in a "right by might" monetary system. /s
Since we're all dummies and you know the answers, please go ahead and explain how Google goes about selling heavily targeted ads to uniquely identifiable groups, but that they also are not "selling data".
Are we being massively pedantic and saying that it's not actual user data, but rather leveraging said data to sell ads to the anonymized targeted groups, who are actively tracked by Google around the internet so ads can be served up at opportune times in their browsing?
Because that dumb argument is like saying Oxford Dictionary doesn't sell words, they sell definitions; or that McDonalds doesn't sell beef, they sell hamburgers.
In Canada those are Muskoka chairs
Never seen this template before; what show is this?
"Texas Republican officials have long argued about the need to strengthen the integrity of elections, but many have grown skeptical about ERIC’s ability to do this. They argue that ERIC’s requirement that members identify eligible but unregistered voters and encourage them to register is an improper use of tax dollars."
LMFAO, what the hell is wrong with these people. How can you just wake up every day and hate your neighbours that much by default
Was just going to suggest this same book! Very interesting take on what makes for a "more advanced" species.

If you want to see an excellent actor do a fantastic job of playing Roy Cohn, you've GOT to go and watch "The Apprentice" which is being released today I think.
Jeremy Strong is amazing showing just how much of a slimebag that guy was...and then Sebastian Stan somehow ome-ups him as a young Trump. Wild movie. Worth the watch!
