2025 Got to Online Store Type “toilet paper” in search bar. Instead of simply saying, “Sorry, we have no toilet paper” they expect you to scroll through 50,000 variations of “toilet seats”, “toilets”, “toilet brushes”, “paper”, “paper toilets”, “paper brushes” only to finally discover there are no entries for “toilet paper”, etc. and discover for yourself that they have no toilet paper.
Also tax breaks. Many large corpos negotiated city tax breaks for bringing a certain number of employees into downtowns. If those numbers don’t meet minimums, the tax breaks go away.
Any we all know how much time, effort and expense a business person will go through to avoid paying $1 in taxes.
“cursed dice allow you to give your players a unique die to use for the session to show the effect of their misguided actions. A D19 to show a curse that prevents criticals and natural 20s.”
To emphasis the “effect of their misguided actions” the numbers on the dice should be really difficult to read.
Yeah, good point.
Gerrymandering: “I did this.”
This is what you get when politicians are not afraid of being voted out. They no represent their constituents.
Along with endless, legal bribery and a host of other issues, of course.
I’m not sure which is worse:
In other words, AIs are BS automated BS artists… being promoted breathlessly by BS artists.
Now watch as Dems throw their support behind the independent in order to undermine Zohran.
We’re leaderless, we’re messageless, we’re agendaless.
Don’t worry. If there’s another election, their donors will buy them all of those things.
They don’t have those things now because their donors neither want nor need them. Why spend money on a leader to push the Democratic party to the right when the party in power is already pushing everything to the right?
The radical right isn’t installing fascism. The donors are paying both parties to install fascism. Why pay off an entire congress when it’s much easier to pay off a single dictator?
Oh, stop your complaining. It’s not perfect, but we’ve all seen how easy this is to fix. Just barge into Tesla tomorrow and randomly fire 20% of the employees. That’s how real leaders get things done.

I think, “I don’t” would be a better title than, “Yes”.
I read a quote somewhere to the effect, “The successful politician knows the exact time to step in front of the parade and pretend they’re leading it.”
Isn’t it a confession that he wittingly employs undocumented migrants and isn’t it illegal?
They stopped even trying to maintain that lie decades ago. 20 years ago the paper had an article with a local farmer vocally declaring “We can’t afford to hire legal migrant labor. Too much regulation. They make us provide toilets and pay minimum wage.”
I wasn’t surprised that farmers exploited migrants. I was surprised that it was so common that the farmer felt safe having his name and picture next to a quote in a regional newspaper declaring, “Of course I break federal laws.”
Citizens United is widely seen as the last wall preventing the rich from buying control of the country.
They’re saying “free” email services. What they mean are disposable e-mail services. You go to a website, they provide you with a random e-mail address. You enter that address into the form, check for the verification code on the disposable e-mail site and you’re done with the disposable e-mail. You never visit the disposable site again. Do a search for “disposable email”.
The wild thing is, turning off autopilot and using lane keep and cruise is fine.
Mine isn’t. I don’t have or use “self driving”. I have used cruise control (what Tesla refers to as “autopilot”) but it is risky. My Tesla’s cruise control has slammed on the brakes on interstates at 65 MPH multiple times. I’ve stopped using it because it is so dangerous. If there had been a large truck behind me any of those times it would have been ugly.
All the checks and balances that are supposed to safeguard against this are non-functional, by choice.
Follow the money.
That drum table swapped that problem for another: having to get down on your hands and knees to do anything with the electronics.
Go talk to your local police department. They’ll likely have some suggestions on how to place to the cameras to be most useful in an investigation.
You may also be surprised to find out they’ll just ignore the video evidence unless the thief holds up their driver’s license and 6 other forms of valid ID in front of the camera. In other words, you might find out there will be no investigation regardless of how much video footage you present.
