Or she came up with a goal–and an annoyance to help drive it.

The constitution gives Congress the exclusive power to formally declare war.

That said, Congress hasn’t declared war since 1942, yet we’ve obviously taken part in many wars since then.

Sadly there just hasn’t been enough Congressional support to retaliate against a president for jumping to military action without authorization. And it doesn’t help that the average American doesn’t know that the president is not allowed to just deploy troops at will (in most cases, Iran included).

The Shart Will Congeal

China would rather blame it on people eating weird shit than admit any fuckups. The Chinese government is NOT working in the interest of all humanity, and often not for its own population’s well-being either.

This just came up at work. Long story short Red Cross kept failing to show up for blood drives, so work changed to a partnership with a heavily profit-driven and publicly amoral blood company.

A coworker pointed out that it is possible to donate directly at hospitals and bypass (at least some) of the middlemen. This is how I will donate from now on.

I may have an opportunity coming up to work in greater Austin. It’s tempting for many reasons, and I like the area, but I don’t think I can make it work for exactly that reason…housing prices are sky high.

For me it would mean trading a lot of financial stability for quality of life, or having a commute similar to yours. Living in or near the city is probably still manageable for those who have been there for many years, but I think most newcomers will find housing prohibitively expensive.

You’d think corporations would learn from these types of failures. But no, not as long as endless growth is the overall plan. The yes men will keep cutting corners at the expense of safety and quality.

They’re so eager to turn down anything perceived as coming from Biden that they’re speeding their own irrelevance. Many of the kids they’re screwing over will remember these things the R cult is doing now. They’ll reach voting age, more elderly bigots will die, MAGA will be just a reminder of dark times, and many things will improve.

Losing them tons of money is the only way to make the faceless corporates pay attention and take action. I hope they do it.

They began trying to stoke doubt on mail-in voting years ago, along with trying to gut the postal service. We could see all this coming long before the election.

EDIT: Grammar

I hope this domino effect continues. It’s time corporations remember who contributes value to their businesses, and it’s not the leeches, er, shareholders.

For me it’s any salesman wearing whatever.

Don’t forget PPP, when they funneled ridiculous money to big business while allowing rampant fraud.

UND KEINE EIER!

DU HAST MICH GEFRAGT, DU HAST MICH GEFRAGT

Erykah Badu, I did some work at her house a few times. She was very nice when I spoke with her, but usually I dealt with another lady. The first time I rolled up I figured she would be cool when I saw “FORGIVE” spray-painted across her garage.
