Back in the 90s and aughts you could get pizza or Chinese delivered. Usually only at the cost of throwing a few singles for the driver. While it was probably exploitative of the drivers, it did not take 30% of the value of the meal and send it to a rich moron in Silicon Valley. It was not seen as super luxurious to get pizza delivered on a Friday night.

2019: you could buy a house if you never went to Starbucks!

2025: no one cares how much money you save working from home, get back to work, get back to the kitchen, deal with the tarrifs!

The fence? He is friends with the thief and the reader.

If I learned anything playing Risk, is that you are fucked if you are in the lead… And especially fucked if you go on an offensive.

Her popularity could conceivably tank.

The NYT article is specifically about Andor

It’s like a start up. Show up early and buy in on low stocks, work your ass off, retire at 40. I’d assume it’s something like that. Pick the best place to build your house, claim all the resources.

Or maybe he just wanted solitude.

My dad is about 60. White Midwestern man. Loved trash TV right after reality TV had that first big wave. He loved the one about tow trucks and The Apprentice. My dad thought it was so cool.

I also had an ancient as shit 5th grade teacher in about 1999. She was maybe… 60? Older? She would always say dumb shit like “as rich as Donald Trump, but you guys are too young to know about him.”

In the Sopranos, Tony’s son is coming of age and his dad wants him to go to college so he doesn’t follow him into crime. But AJ tells his dad at one point he wants to becomr a helicopter pilot. And fly for people like Trump.

He was always lurking in the background. Like a celebrity for morons.

They didn’t fire the bricks. Just formed the mud and hoped for the best (?)

That’s capitalism

As a kid with controlling parents? Fantasy and science fiction were always my escapes. When we finally got this game it was my everything. Little did I know the sequel had already been out for a while. I still have so much of the game memorized. Every few years I pull out the n64 and play it again…

For the greater good!

A quick Google shows there expense ratio is 86% which I think isn’t horrible.

Invest in Hawaiian. Maybe Trump can add a few more islands out there so we can compete and export.

That’s not the point of my argument. My point is that Republicans warned themselves they would lose MORE women and minorities if they didn’t move away from harsh immigration discussions and conservative social policies.

And then Trump did the opposite and made gains with those voters.

Lest we all forget, Trump took the well considered Romney post mortem, threw it in the trash, pissed on it, then gradually built a coalition of, checks notes… White women and men of color. For fucks sake.

Electoral whiplash is such a waste of time

Every time the power goes out…!

Call the police and fbi immediately

Doesn’t he already smoke weed. Openly? On YouTube videos? The exceptions made for him are truly staggering.
