Well, gullibility is a symptom of histrionic personality disorder, but only one of many
“Seedorf said he’d “take a bullet for” Trump and that Trump was the only politician he’d commit such an act of self-sacrifice for. Of the former president, Seedorf said: “He’d do it, too, for everyone else.””
These people are mentally ill. It would be sad if it weren’t so terrifying
If this goes the worst possible way I’m sure Congress will just swing into action and suddenly start legislating to resolve the thousands of questions that will suddenly need answering.
I feel like this is part of a Republican long game - make their states so unpalatable to progressives that they move out, thus ensuring that the US Senate and House are never again under Democratic control. It’s like a for of self-imposed gerrymandering for Democrats, packing themselves into the few states with liberal legislaturea and policies.
Of course, those blue states will continue to subsidize the red states through tax dollars and federal programs, but that’s another issue entirely.
These judges like Wallace are people too, with families who cannot hide behind anonymity like a high profile jury in a mob case. They’ve seen what Trump’s Brown Shirts will do to those they don’t like: anything from incessant threatening phone calls to attempted murder with a hammer. What an impossible position to be in: serve justice, or risk your family being stalk and possibly assaulted.
This is how democracy dies. It takes very brave people in power to stand up to someone like Trump.
So he’s saying he’d like to visit Guantanamo? I mean, that is where we send foreign fighters…
Because both sides are fighting are major assholes. Hamas does hide arms and fighters in and around hospitals. Israel doesn’t hold back attacking the hospitals to get at that gear, because they care more about killing Hamas than saving Palestinians. The civilians in Gaza are surrounded by assholes.
“This county ought to be totally dominated by believers.”
Christian nationalists are so oblivious to how much they sound like the Taliban. It would be hilarious if it wasn’t so terrifying.
“But Trump’s lawyers say “the president’s motivations are not for the prosecution or this Court to decide.””
-Uh, no, I think that’s exactly what they’re here to decide
A screenshot of a login page, a PowerPoint pres, and 6000 files of unknown use. That is a really lame hack to be touted as “All of Sony’s systems”.
That’s encouraging, and also discouraging since it wasn’t enough
I don’t disagree, but those young voters still have to show up to vote or the result is the same. They didn’t show up in the last election and my state anded up with a Republican supermajority.
I don’t disagree, but they still need devs to build and maintain the custom functions required. So then they sign up with Red Hat and still pay huge dollars. Unless they hire in house devs, which they rarely seem to want to do (at the levels needed for these projects).
In my field, the way I’ve seen Oracle contracts rationalized is the same way IBM contracts are rationalized… they’re stupid expensive, usually under deliver, but they’re the biggest names. When the project goes south, the buyer can tell their superiors “well we hired IBM, and they’re the best, so what else could I have done?” It’s a form of of CYA.
I looked it up and you’re correct. I didn’t realize Uber started literally as “UberCab” and later dropped the “cab” and added the personal car ride sharing component. Thx for the tip!
Yep. Just like Uber it morphed, from people sharing a ride or their place while on vacation, into full time drivers and landlords. Not the philosophical intebt of the original service, and it ruined it for everyone.
No, in Georgia a Grand Jury’s participants are public record.

I strongly believe that everyone should work a customer service job like retail or waiting tables early in their career. It would make a lot of people less of an asshole when interacting with employees.
'"It is not humanitarian at all because it only serves one segment of the population there. The hostages there do not receive any humanitarian aid.”
They mean the civilians in Gaza held hostage by the Israeli military, right?
