I don’t think I’ve ever run into anyone else who has seen or remembers surf ninjas. What a great fever dream of a movie.

If you like them The Agonist is a good band in the same vein. Alissa White-Glutz fronted them until she left for arch enemy and was replaced by Vicky Psarakis

Not if it is leveraged to hell and back. Odds are that a bulk is collateral for buying a social media platform and a presidency along with how he uses it to float his other companies.

Is it really a new low? I meant he pretty much does the equivalent of this just about daily. It’s pretty standard at this point.

If a judge can garnish my wages or dictate the terms of a company bankruptcy settlement then they should be able to take control of the payments relevant to their ruling.

Pretty sure he just paid for it.

I wrote it below but that’s not the only way.

Other things like finding the IRS (8x the investment) and job placement programs return much much more than what is invested in them. It’s like running a restaurant and pricing alcohol at cost while planning for apps to make us the difference, that’s just not reality.

Granted this is still unpopular with lobbiests and would cost rich people money so them money

Not very effectively. Tariffs return less than the investment in them due to a slow down in the economy they cause.

The thing that always baffles me is that they never look to increase government revenue. Every company I’ve worked for the question was always 1 how to increase money coming in then 2 how to reduce money going out. In that order.

Just spin it as a car regulation instead of a gun regulation.

Him saying he knows more about manufacturing than anyone alive today is less descriptive than me saying I know more about the internet than anyonet. I work in manufacturing and the space is massive. What field if manufacturering? Because in the tesla alone there are dozens of separate fields of industrial manufacturing and he isn’t even the preeminent expert in automotive manufacturing let alone any of the components in the car.

Agreed, and the passing from the article implies that she was prepped and had an idea that he was shitty then realized how terrible a person he is once he met her. He’s in the news so much over the last 8-9 years but before 2015/2016 most people knew fairly little about him unless you read his biography which his biographer has come out and said it’s very sanitized.

I mean, why would she care? He’s was a US business man and she was a German politician. They would have little to no overlap and even when he became president she had more to do than spend the days of would take going over his list of bullshittery. It’s easy to see immediately that he is a terrible person, realizing that he’s quite literally toxic takes actually investing time into.

Replacing some small to mid size appliances. Mine are generally 7-10 years old and some of the cooking ones are becoming unsafe to use due to wear. New air fryer to replace the one that smokes when it runs and the toaster oven that has two burnt out coils. Potentially a new dryer of the motor replacement is cost prohibitive.

If I can’t fix it and expect 3+more years of use it needs to be replaced in the next 6 months.

Biden’s dealing with the ramifications of his hubris. He thought he would win another term, then thought Harris would win, and could continue softballing this war and now that he knows he’s out of time. If he doesn’t do absolutely everything he can to open up resources for Ukraine now then Putin wins. Putin will most likely win anyway now but this at least will be something.

They actively donate to anti lgbtq causes. They are explicitly the one I avoid because of this.

In Ohio you have to vote early at the county election board and last I checked it was only open regular business hours. For me that means 30 minute drive in, pay for parking, 30 minute drive home. Waiting until election day I can walk to my piling place in 10 minutes, wait in line for 30-45,then walk home in 10 minutes. For a lot of places it’s not as easy as voting on election day.

Nah, some of the background on this I saw had her husband being on the selection committee and forcing the committee to choose her.

To be fair it is true that Schumer and Pelosi are running the country. It’s kind of their job being elected officials and all.
