Insurance transition from protection against highly unlikely emergencies to our default payment system is the biggest scam in world history.

This is what I picture mall cop warfare looks like.

The Samsung keyboard definitely looks better but underperforms both gboard & SwiftKey when it comes to swipe typing, auto correction and spelling. I very much wish it was the best because I'm getting tired of the other two trying to force AI features on their keyboards.

I'm fairly certain it's getting worse.

As if I wasn't already highly motivated this year. 🤣

Unless we're disallowing guns in video games, movies, books, plays or on the internet in general then this is a waste of time.

I remember taking an anthropology class years ago where the professor was attempting to explain how difficult it is to overcome our own personal bias. Her example was statements like "How did so and so win the election, nobody I know voted for them". The point was we are more isolated than we realize because even within our own cities we tend to interact with only specific groups. My point is just because it doesn't exists within your bubble doesn't mean it's not widespread.

If you think that then you have no idea what would come with the threat of a national gun ban. The right might be fired up but with a possible ban not one of them would miss voting day. Also, there are enough left wingers who are against banning guns to irrevocably damage the party. My point is there is no reason to even talk about this hot button issue. It's not at the top of almost any left voters list right now so it won't motivate anyone on that side. It was such a careless misstep that should have been completely avoidable. Talk about it After the election. Let's pick a candidate who can do better.

What an idiot. Does he not realize talking about banning guns is the number one way to motivate right wingers? The US is NOT going to ban guns especially with the current Supreme Court. This is an example of his old team running old plays that haven't been successful since the 90s. He needs to go before he causes any more damage to his party.

Biden will drop out. Full stop. It's the people still defending him that are delaying the inevitable and lowering the chances of a Democrat president. Anyone who thinks Biden has the best chance to win is living in an isolated echo chamber at this point. This is the closest real world example to The Emperor Has No Clothes that I've ever seen.

I had an ex who insisted on this setup. Apparently Kitchenaid has somehow been able to convince people this is an decorative status symbol. As an appliance I've never seen one in action and I've seen many of them.

No prominent Democrat would dare challenge Biden before he drops out for fear of party retaliation. The two party system is the real issue here. Until we abolish it our best hope is things don't get worse because they won't get better.
