  1. That is a guy I fully will appreciate and accept health information from.
  2. Tell that to the people laid off, the dead from airplane crashes, those paying more sales tax, those who get sick in the future due to disease spread, poor food, and environmental pollution. And the poorly educated and our research that was just tossed into the shitter, and the people deported without due process and 2 yr olds forced to once again understand court proceedings. But hey.... some segments haven't been completely corrupted. Yet.
  3. Elon is exactly what the problem is. If you look back on the company you can see a clearly defined strategy that the actual founder came up with and how it was effective and guided the organization to developing its first few models. Then look at the second series of goals and see how pie in the sky they are, and how the company never achieved those goals. They just moved on to more pie in the sky goals for the next strategy. That indicates an organizational dysfunction at the top. Sure they took advantage of some tax codes and hype to enter a bubble state, but that was unsustainable. Heck, Elon had a good idea to bring in a guy to revamp their manufacturing and because he did such a good job, Elon fired him because his ego couldn't handle it. If you want an even bigger example of Elon's ego, look at the 2006 company reports which Elon has backdated to place himself as CEO and Founder, when he never joined the firm until 2 years later. This is indicative of a person who is desperate for all credit, even undue credit. The cars were fine overall, the first mover advantage was there, but this is how industries always go. Competitors move into the space and they chip away. Often the leader of the space doesn't innovate at the same pace, and they lose out. Consider how many people Skype using Zoom. Blackberry was called the crackberry because of the addiction of their users to texting and emailing. They also disappeared as competitors blew past them. Tesla is on the same trajectory. Their techbro creed -break shit and move fast, is horrible for a culture making actual things that need to be safe and thoughtfully built.
  4. I think you underestimate our commitment to corporate welfare.
  5. and maybe 4 fried chickens and a coke?
  6. Is there something you are trying to tell us in code? This is a safe space.
  7. You see, the SCOTUS pulled from their ass a new legal precedent that means republicans cannot be sued or held liable for their actions. However, all former democratic or ex-republicans can be held liable for republican damages and crimes.
  8. Until they accidentally get shipped off to some El Salvadorian prison which is apparently the legal equivalent of a black hole.
  9. Convincing them they were duped makes them feel like a dupe. And they refuse to do that. The trick is to convince them they were betrayed. That leads to anger which can be pushed into whatever direction you want. It is what the Right does all the time. The left should use this tactic and retake all phases of government. Then push their agenda through, prosecute the criminals, break the oligarchs, corporate media monopolies, and eventually then back off on hate. But put it in the books that the republican party is the party of oligarchs, the party of felons, the party that bankrupted farms and broke families. Put that shit on youtube ADs, and hire good writers/actors to create ads about how they harmed America. Make it funny. Make it constant. Show them how the republicans lose wars, raise taxes, raise debt, and how they create bad faith negotiations with little school plays for elementary students to act out. Kids, drugs are bad, but republicans are worse.
  10. I find it hysterical and kind of Freudian how much obsession with dicks there are in that passage. There is an easier way to say people of different faiths and time.
  11. The power of many!
  12. And to those who lived before Jesus, off to Dante's Purgatory?
  13. we should be involved in armed conflicts, just with former allies like Canada, Greenland, Panama, etc. He is too scared of Macron to threaten him.
  14. Because they will get it later with subsidies. Old equipment kicking Russian ass was a great marketing play and mutually beneficial for both the government and our industry. But because trump didn't personally benefit...
  15. "Hoe bag, huh. She should represent Amerikkka."
  16. "I don't know who none of you is!"
  17. That was the point. Our corporate media continues to fall for Trumps bullshit and play his games. They never question it and they don't really follow up with real commentary. Why was Zelensky the only person not in a suit chastised? Why did you claim to be able to solve the war in one day and now, 100 days later you have failed to live up to this promise. How is your economic plan going to lower prices/inflation when it is doing the opposite? Or did you just mean prices on the stock market and valuations of our economic interests? How as stakeholders are we going to benefit from this? How are you going to reign in the growing wealth inequality gap and government corruption where politicians are profiting from their positions and selling influence? He'll just award it to himself.
  18. I think of you and let it go...... (a fart, not a red balloon)
  19. but remember the violence perpetuated by left-wingers is worse! Just as bad? FUCK!!!
  20. Again, one of the best indicators the media isn't "left wing" or "liberal" is how this will not be tweeted and acted out 1000 times a day for the rest of his presidency.
  21. Trump tweeting for Putin to stop sounds so dignified and in control.
  22. In this draft analyst’s opinion, I would grade Mahomes as a second-round pick. That is the same grade the NFL draft advisory board gave him. A general manger of a NFC team said they had a fourth-round grade on Mahomes, but felt he had some tools to work with. That same team has a third- to fourth-round grade on Deshaun Watson, a fifth-round grade on Miami quarterback Brad Kaaya, and a second-round grade on Mitch Trubisky. That team is a tough grader, overall. Another NFC team said they had Mahomes low – into Day 3 – and weren’t hot on him as a prospect, but they also have a young franchise quarterback, so they aren’t interested in quarterbacks until the late rounds of the 2017 NFL Draft. -Source
  23. You can say jerking-off here.
