If you look at many people’s material conditions during Trump and during Biden, they haven’t gotten better. You can say whatever you want about Biden’s policies, his cabinet appointments, and how much Democrats have done when they hold power, but at the end of the day it hasn’t changed most folks’ lives one bit. It might be good metric-wise, but until folks feel like they’re better off it doesn’t matter.

Also, it’s hilarious to me how much shit Republicans seem to get done even when they don’t hold the House, Senate, and White House together, but the minute Republicans get one of those, suddenly it’s “oh shit Democrats can’t do anything”. It’s like Republicans are playing with nukes and Democrats are showing up with rubber band guns.

And no, I won’t be voting for Biden, I’ll be voting third party. And I know, you think “a vote for a third party is a vote for Trump”, but I don’t give a shit. I’ve been seeing this same “at least I’m not…” shit for 25 years and watching our country be sold to the highest bidder under both parties. At this point, if we can’t figure out shit out, we deserve to be razed to the ground.

Some folks have been screaming this for the last 4 years!

I wonder if it has anything to do with Russia

I mean, since Biden changed the meaning it “ceasefire” to mean “temporary pause”, then of course he would be ok. Gives the IDF a chance to reload.

1: read the post 2: that’s still a ridiculous price

Integration with their other products. And I’m too old to enjoy fiddling with stuff anymore.

A “World’s Okayest Dad” mug.

Alternatively, a certificate for a free vasectomy.

2 months of Dropout

Looks like SOMEone didn’t pay their CIA dues this month

They’ll have leveled the entirety of Raffah, so now most/all of Gaza is almost uninhabitable. “I mean, we gonna bomb the rubble? Sure we’ll sign a cease fire. It never stopped us before”

Ask for an itemized bill.

I would normally agree, but when it comes to Israel, all bets are off, even for The Atlantic.

That’s not true. Fox News gets through just fine.

They were definitely still biased. The difference is that the opinion was built into what they covered vs what they didn’t cover. ABC has always been a left-leaning network, CBS a right-leaning network, and NBC somewhere between. So while they might cover most big things very much the same, sometimes what they chose to cover or how much to cover it would reveal their leanings.

That being said, they were much more in-step than our news networks are now.

It’s not a desert. The FOSS apps are there, but you can’t use the App Store to find them.

This source is hot garbage. It’s a right-wing conspiracy theory rag

$360 for a set with that many pieces is about right. The math in our house is about $.10/piece

I’ve never had that issue with either Epson I’ve owned. Scans just fine without ink.

Has Epson also gone downhill? The first one I bought lasted 11 years, so about 3 years ago I replaced it with another Epson.

He has always been right wing. People forget that he was picked as a VP for Obama because Obama seemed “too radical” to the DNC. He was at best a centrist, at worst a 1990s centrist, which is to say, a Republican. All you have to do is look at his voting record.
