It is not even hard to say Everyone Means Everyone. Every person has rights, every person deserves safety, a clean place to sleep, enough to eat Any politician no matter what can easily say: Everyone's rights must be protected. Nobody can argue with this! Just keep repeating the one thing!

A congenital liar, utterly incapable of uttering a solitary truth about himself or the world around him, is seeking to rearrange our national experience so lies are given the same weight and authority as reality. And we are to simply endure this Orwellian hell as if any society can so survive.

Write it on the blackboard a thousand times: they will have to demolish the ballroom, the arch and so forth. They will have to make a show of it. You will get the usual sons of bitches saying we don’t do that in this country. We do now. That is not emotion, it’s politics. To do less is dereliction.

Can we just stop with all the Peanuts AI meme's? Think for a second about just how much Charles Shulz would have hated that shit. Draw your own Peanuts meme's, they are simple figures by design, and no matter how poorly you draw, a real drawing honors Schulz.

Reminder to go through your full pay statement. Sanity-check EVERY line and understand each including inactive YTD values. You may find a hell of a misunderstanding. People go years with auto-deposit turned on and don't want to confront the numbers, I get it. You have to do it.
