One of the things we neglected to consider is how much our rapid shift from traditional to wfh caused problems in unrelated portions of the economy. We saw things like housing prices in Oklahoma skyrocket because of remote work, service industries tanked, and we forgot how to behave in public.

It'll be A) a lot of Republicans refusing to comply with subpoenas or pleading the 5th (they'll call it taking a Fauci) B) a lot of rapid bills passed between now and January, appointments and I'd guess funding to keep Democrats from having leverage C) a lot of media blaming Dems for 55=/=67.

Considering that the media effectively stopped covering the Harris campaign live within a week of her putting out a wealth tax proposal and saying she'd keep on Lina Khan and returned to their breathless livestream of Trump's empty pod..lectern..

"Weird" got blackholed by media, and Dems gotta figure out how to get around that.

The actions Trump has taken in the last 72 hours (offering bribes, blaming messaging, begging Hispanics to vote even though they dont like him) all but conceded that A) he's losing both the midterms and control of the GOP B) he can't cancel/cheat elections C) his administration is going to end

Not quite. Egos and incompetence are what created the DHS. 9/11 is just what put those failures of Republican character into the spotlight because they refused to work with each other, share information, and instead chased the spotlight. DHS literally could've been an org chart.

I don’t own individual stocks, and I won’t own them as governor. The only thing I am invested in is lowering costs for Ohioans. Vivek Ramaswamy has over $5 million invested in the data center industry and millions more in many other industries that Ohio’s governor would be in charge of regulating.

So my 70+ year old neighbor decided to be helpful and mow my front yard today, because our yards are connected (in a beekeeper suit because he's allergic to noseeums), but I digress - And in the process he mowed over the sod I just laid this weekend, possibly ruining it. Not sure what to do.

At this point, I don't even blame Trump for conning the media into preempting their coverage for him to rant. They should know at this point to demand a transcript first. Reagan: "Trust but verify." Trump: Don't trust. Verify."

Remember that clipped post where Harris was asked about transgender rights and she said "I would follow the law"? This is the law she was referring to. That transgender people in federal prisons awere to be eligible for gender affirming care. She would've followed it.

Something something both parties, something something I'm not voting to teach Democrats a lesson. Just hope you understand that this is NOT something that can be undone. The harm these kids will face will be lifelong. Kids who you decided their rights weren't worth your filling in a fucking circle.

For those curious, "woman grandmaster" is the TITLE awarded to her by FIDE, aka the international chess federation. It's not a phrase CNN chose to use. If CNN made any error in their post, it's that it should've been capitalized. More importantly, congratulations to her for this achievement.

There is no home improvement project where the term "sweat equity" plays more of a role than patching sod. - It costs $10/roll, + 1 shovel. - It takes an hour/roll to lay down properly - It instantly fixes the issues with your yard, and can increases your homes curb appeal by thousands of dollars

Look, if you buy one of those Larson Platinum "only 30 minutes!" Storm doors, plan for the installation to take all fucking day. But in their defense, 90% of that time was spent filling, sanding, and painting the trim; rewiring the doorbell and snaking the wires behind the siding. A good Saturday.

Into the lobby? Sure. But into the actual interview? No. You're either A) asking to spill the drink while you're shaking hands/sitting down/etc B) going to run into that one interviewer who has a visceral reaction to the smell of coffee, has boycotted the store you chose, etc.

This is one of the key reasons why people aren't buying houses, even if they're otherwise qualified. Why would you want to take a loan now when you don't know what the interest rate is going to be a year from now? It's not that it's too low, or that it's too high. It's that it's chaotic.

Pour one out for the employment law firms that will get called to take these cases. Talk about a Sophie's Choice. On one hand, you get shit for defending ICE agents who had their contracts breached. On the other, you get to attack the Trump admin. On the 3rd hand, you're suing taxpayers.

The media supports Trump because of the access (and controversies) that a competent Democratic administration doesn't give them. Every Trump tweet is 5 breaking stories. But what happens if that access is suddenly threatened? Then they have no reason to play favorites any longer.
