My guy, Biden blocked a railroad workers strike because it endangered corporate interests, and he didn't give them a key piece they were asking for: paid sick leave.

I ran Fedora on my Framework when I first got it, a couple years ago, but the battery life and sleep behavior was just awful. Love Linux on desktop, hate it on a laptop. Should I revisit?

Yes. Special forces are vetted with lots of testing before joining. However, once they're done doing things that make many psychologically stable people very unstable, they're released back into the general population with little to no help or followup.

I love that the only thing standing between him and sexually asualting people is social media. If it wasn't for Tom and MySpace taking social media to the masses, this guy would be a pervert. GeoCities was a thing, so he's not a weird, masculinity obsessed rapist. We're so lucky.

Every 4 years, hundreds of millions of people set their conscience to the side and continue to vote for the thing they'll complain about until the next time, when they do it all again.

Maybe if there were a story in a book about people not listening to NOAA and they were destroyed in a massive flood. Maybe, just maybe, that would help them understand.

It's sad how much this will hurt good people who work for the Washington Post and how little this will affect Bezos.

And a $199 stand for it, sold separately.

I think they think Donald Trump is the standard. It's important to remember that he isn't. That's an easy comparison, and some roadkill wins that contest. Being better than the worst isn't enough of a selling point. 2016 proved that. Be better.

So many options for the title:

Jiminy Cricket is a Putin plant.

America's Collective Conscience: Misguided or Manchurian Candidate?

Ask not what your country can do for genocide, ask what genocide can do for your country.

This is so much satire that it's a little hard to tell if it's satire.
