It's really not unless you think Kurt would have been terminally online.

Esqplorer ,

They vote for their team no matter what, while Dems decide if they vote at all or not. The idea of a swing voter as a major force hasn't been reality in multiple elections.

If this helps down ballot Dems, maybe it's a savvy move, but it really looks like it is another "demotivate my base to appease people who will literally never vote for me" move.

Tldr: instead of disposing of toxic industrial waste products, Dow Chemical thought "our toxic waste kills plants, if we convince farmers and suburbanites they need to kill plants, they'll dump our toxic waste on their land and pay us for it!" The rest is the history of ecocide.

Esqplorer ,

Invasive plants expand and kill the native species. Bradford Pears like those planted by my prior home owner prevented anything else from growing under it and 2 years after removal, is still trying to sprout.

Esqplorer ,

Yeah, I can't do Instagram or TikTok because within 3 videos I'm either getting something inflammatory or selling something. An algorithmically neutral version would be amazing.

Esqplorer ,

It literally already passed that point. The headline details the elements of a crime.

Esqplorer ,

They should use them whenever Trump does his yelly old man routine.

Esqplorer ,

I started using my apple pencil so much I pinch to zoom on paper. It doesn't work.

Esqplorer ,

Fit as much stuff as possible in your fridge and or trunk of your car

Esqplorer ,

Beyond your disgusting analogy, if you think Palestinians give a shit who sends the bombs to Israel that are going to kill them you're not living in reality.

Tell me you're voting for Biden on domestic policy grounds, and I'll agree with you because that's my plan, but stop dressing this up as anything that's not as bad as it could be

Esqplorer ,

First, I don't think "unskilled jobs" is used correctly most of the time and agree with you 99%. My quibble is that people often say "unskilled jobs" to mean "jobs that can be learned to do adequately without prior experience." Some, not most, of the jobs you show fit that category. I wish we had a corrolary to this meme to express the benefit employers get from employees who become skilled at these roles. Purely economically, if I am a manager who can hire someone who has gained great experience and can hit the job running day 1 at an "unskilled" job instead of having to train and performance manage a truly "unskilled" candidate, it would easily justify a 50-100% pay increase as it reduces the cost of management by more than that.

Esqplorer ,

Until they do because they make up whatever they want as they go

Esqplorer ,

Seems like an income problem given all other evidence tbh

Esqplorer ,

I was actually saying the opposite, that we need more done about income protections so people can afford stuff. "Given all other evidence" meaning the mountains of information we see about inflation...

Esqplorer ,

I didn't say high ticket prices was inflation. I was explaining my original "evidence" comment was to reflect inflation not "don't be poor" and now I'm being critiqued for not re-writing the original story in the comments like people seem to want.

I hate Ticketmaster as much as anyone, and think the DOJ should absolutely pursue them, but the fact people can't afford ticket prices is also because people are stretched financially more than ever before, which is a much bigger issue than just

I'm going to assume someone will now down vote me for not predicting some other third assumption that they will jump to. Great!

Esqplorer ,

Trump has more control of the GOP Congress than Biden does of the Dems in Congress.

Esqplorer ,

Sure, but change my original meaning to reflect influence and it's still troubling and accurate

Esqplorer ,

Many can

Esqplorer ,

We got an ioniq 6 during the end of March promotional lease and holy shit we love it.

Esqplorer ,

People don't desire sex with them. They may be able to coerce (religion) or get sex through power (money/influence), but they aren't generally sexually appealing.

Redditors Vent and Complain When People Mock Their "AI Art" ( futurism.com )

Setting aside the usual arguments on the anti- and pro-AI art debate and the nature of creativity itself, perhaps the negative reaction that the Redditor encountered is part of a sea change in opinion among many people that think corporate AI platforms are exploitive and extractive in nature because their datasets rely on...

Esqplorer ,

Intelligence is the misnomer. It's like calling airplanes 'artificial birds' (credit Don Norman).

Esqplorer ,

This was in jury instructions, so he was saying the fact of a climate crisis is irrelevant to their deliberations and not to consider it when evaluating their guilt.

Esqplorer ,

In the analogy it's a lot more similar to the parents who give the gun to the kid on the way to school while singing pumped up kicks

The longer Biden enables Netanyahu, the more his presidency is at risk | Mohamad Bazzi ( www.theguardian.com )

Biden, a supposed foreign policy pragmatist, doesn’t seem bothered that the US is one of the few states that continues to wholeheartedly sustain Israel’s war on Gaza. In fact, Biden has staked his political future on his support for Netanyahu and Israel – and Biden is losing. In this year’s presidential election, where...

Esqplorer ,

Oh no, doing the right thing has a risk of downside! No one has ever faced such a moral dilemma before.

Esqplorer ,

"BuT TrUmP." Since we aren't actively sending troops to Israel and Trump is a fan of sending money instead of troops, I think he would handle it exactly the same way.

I won't vote for him, but it should sicken all of us that on the issue of genocide, both parties are literally the same.

Esqplorer ,

It's the risk we are talking about because Biden and the DNC didn't make any plan to avoid this disaster.

No one fails to see this. You saying "but Trump" is just an excuse for Biden to keep killing children.

Esqplorer ,

What better system is Biden building? Protectionist fear mongering for American Auto? Better sales for the Military Industrial Complex? Continuing Trump's border policies?

Esqplorer ,

Means testing costs more to implement than it saves

Esqplorer ,

This sounds like the London Library:

Organization: Shelved largely in order of acquisition instead of by subject or author.

Benefits: This encourages readers to browse rather than search directly. This leads to chance encounters with books outside their usual interests, expanding horizons and making unexpected connections.

Esqplorer ,

I care about it like Facebook or Twitter. It has a big influence on our society, even if I don't use it.

Esqplorer ,

They didn't wish I'll to this guy. They promised to defend themselves from him.

Esqplorer ,

The article is stupid, but the European treaty signatories to defend Europe barely do anything but demand money from the US

Esqplorer ,

Why are you sharing a license in your post?

Esqplorer ,

Until SCOTUS pulls a reverse card bc at least 2 of them are documented to be bought and paid for.

He'll just keep funneling RNC money to do whatever he wants.

None of this is legal and none of it matters. He has 8 years of demonstrated proof the law doesn't create consequences to him.

Esqplorer ,

I hope you are right

Esqplorer ,

Rolls off the tongue

Esqplorer ,

This is from May of 2023. He could still flip to support Trump.

Esqplorer ,

We got him this time! (We did not in fact get him.)

Esqplorer ,

Oh no, doing the right thing may alienate people who won't vote for him anyway, better do a genocide!

Esqplorer ,

Or pulling over on a long drive

Esqplorer ,

He's just a finance guy. They don't understand maintenance & ongoing operations/support of software can take nearly as many people as development. They hear "pRoJeCT dOnE" and wonder what those employees are working on after launch.

Esqplorer ,

How can it possibly speed up things at entry? They're going to be checking IDs like a bouncer at a club. I can imagine it speeding up checkout only if they stop requiring card scanning at that time too, and/or massive amounts of people are doing this today.

Esqplorer ,

That big case a few years ago was in GA I think

Esqplorer ,

Oh no not Lenny

Esqplorer ,

Conservatives believe in protecting the right of humans to be born, regardless of their disabilities.
This is not my position, but it is very easy to see why it has appeals to disability communities and disabled people.

Esqplorer ,

How do you still have optimism?

Esqplorer ,

Fuck 'em, just wait until they get out of highschool at 18 before they ever even see real money and have no idea how any of it works, who the predators are, and what the risk is.

Why is this worse than the literal same thing at a younger age?

Esqplorer ,

Or their brother-in-law runs the ad agency
