Obviously the worst part of all the horrific things Trump does are the actual horrific things, but it really grinds my gears how all his comms people post like they’re 12.

This has to change ... we've recreated a class of people who essentially modern day Serfs.
And before any soulless conservative speaks, it's not the fault of Democrats or social programs. It's the fault of Repuglicans and conservative Christians for allowing corporations to abuse citizens.

I hope that legacy Democrats don't feel safe in their positions simply because of recent elections. In the eyes of this voter, the former political status quo is not acceptable. The change we need and deserve doesn't align with the subpar actions of the Democrat party of the past.

I kinda think the Austrians have a point that some bankruptcies can have a salutary cleansing effect. like you don't let it spiral out of control and you stimulate back to full employment as needed but sometimes companies deserve to go under

I'm going to choose my words very carefully here:

F**k Boeing.

Also, airlines like Southwest and Ryanair, which demand minimal change to the types they fly, so that Boeing continues to produce hacky antiques that cost crews fare paying passengers their lives.

Today I’m taking my first ride with GO Transit which is on the “Express” limited stop service to Niagara Falls, a journey of around 2ish hours. 6 return services run on weekdays, upped to 8 on weekends in addition to Amtrak/Via’s “Maple Leaf”. Let’s go! 🇨🇦

This is a massive signal that OpenAI doesn't think the financing actually exists for the massive investments in AI chips and data centers.

IOW - all those fantasy numbers being thrown around recently were bullshit and they want US taxpayers/bond holders to fund it.

F*CK off.

9. I actually used to be into cars before I was old enough to drive. Learning how to drive, however killed any energy I had for them.

8. This also meant that they refused to get cable. We only had an antenna and half of our TV channels came from Canada. This is partly why I'm a Leafs fan instead of a Sabres fan.
