Holy shit, this guy has the same name as the Elon Musk who’s gotten billions in government contracts with NASA.

What are the odds? Anyway, I have an idea where we could start cutting costs. It’s only temporary while we make America great again. Again.

For the good of the entire fucking world, Jill Stein should go away. Go back to practicing medicine, where you're usually limited to only killing one person at a time.

There's no excuse for the Democrats' support for Israel's genocidal wars, and Biden is complicit in his unwavering material (materiel? Both? Both.) support that allows them to continue doing it. I hate that if I don't vote for the enabling-genocide party, I'll get the enabling-genocide-but-also-women-are-things-and-LGBTQ-people-shouldn't-exist party.

So instead her goal is to ensure the election of Donald Trump and his merry band of eschatological fetishists, who'll not only do the same thing because their literal goal is to bring about the apocalypse, but also bring back all his very smart domestic policies and hand the government over to the Project 2025 fanatics to turn the United States into Gilead. Brilliant. Real big-picture thinking there, doctor.

Also in Pike Place right by the gum wall, is Alibi Room, best pizza in Seattle. Don’t go there, the wait is long enough as is.

I have nearly 1500 hours played in Civ V. Never completed a single Civ VI game. Hoping they rediscover whatever it was that made 5 so great!

This is just the plot of Final Fantasy VII.

Also, use Windows 10 LTSC. You can download an eval copy from Microsoft and turn it into the full version by following the instructions here to change the installed SKUs: https://github.com/victorlish/Convert_to_Windows_10_LTSC. Then use the KMS scripts above to activate it.

Ignore the FUD about “LTSC is designed for specialty purpose machines like medical devices, retail kiosks, blah blah blah.” It is what Windows 10 should have been: no bloatware, no ads, no MS Store (you can add it back if you want). No forced upgrades. I’ve used it as my daily driver since Windows 7 went EOL, and I’ll never use a “normal” version of Windows again.

This event is proudly bipartisan, uniting those from across the political spectrum to celebrate the impactful work of local broadcasters and our partners

This makes me wonder what would shake the media out of their business-as-usual attitude. Even if the Republican party didn’t represent an existential threat to democracy in this country, the unprecedented conviction by a jury of a former president on 34 out of 34 felony counts seems newsworthy enough to warrant taking a stand on the side of “fuck that guy”.

So you’re saying the front fell off because a wave hit it?

Trump appointee Aileen Cannon indefinitely postpones Trump classified documents trial, but I hardly see why that’s relevant.

What about the label for my father’s brother’s nephew’s cousin’s former roommate?

Ya know, it’s been said that fascism is colonialism turned inward.

And as this article states, The Biden-Harris Administration has broken down the dividing line between domestic and foreign policy because our strength at home and abroad are inextricably linked.

It’s just breathtaking how overtly we’re being propagandized with the same old lines. “It’s outside agitators”, “the protests have turned violent”, “the protestors don’t even know what they’re protesting”. They trot out these tired memes over and over, expecting people to lap it up, stay docile, and vote for them in November. It’s all so damn predictable.

But I don’t think it’s going to work this time. Is it just me, or does it feel more ominous than 2016 or even 2020? It’s like we’re being led off a cliff. And when we go over, the talking heads on TV and Very Smart People will blame the electorate for not going to the polls to pick the right guy. Instead of the “leaders” who thought they could carry on sitting in their big chairs and ignoring the concerns of their constituents, because hey, we’ve got them by the balls—who else are they gonna vote for?
