@TheNewsOwl I'm old enough to remember having to reinstall the first version of Windows every week. With Windows 95 it was every month. With Windows 98 it was every two months. With Windows NT it was every six months. With Windows 10 it was once a year.
Now I'm running Linux. I installed it once and have never looked back.

@holon42 The "American experiment" may have started in a noble and erudite meeting of founding fathers fighting for freedom and liberty for all, but it's ending in a meth lab full of petty criminals in pursuit of absolute power.

WASHINGTON D.C. – After almost 250 years of data-gathering, the American experiment has ended in a catastrophic laboratory explosion.
“I don’t understand what went wrong!” sighed the facility’s chief scientist. “I added a flawed constitution, an electoral system designed by slave owners, a biased and corrupt supreme court, and centuries of frothing racism, violent sexism, and misguided exceptionalism. I followed the recipe to the letter!”

@Roaring_wolf2030 Part 2 of Trump's plan to make billionaires and corporations richer, while ordinary Americans starve on the crumbs.
I said that the Dems didn't abandon the working class. Instead, voters voted for "they eat dogs, they eat cats" while the Dems were offering $25,000 to buy a house, lowering taxes for that bracket, maintaining healthcare, supporting unions, home health aids. If you listened, the entire Dem platform was supporting the working class. The real issue is: Why did he, and other men like him, hear that message? Why didn't they care about it?
@Lindy Trump really brings out the worst in deplorables.
@catlynne333 There are millions of Trump supporters who worship the man, without respecting the responsibilities of the office. They treat his election as a variation of a TV reality show "rose" ceremony, with no thought of the disastrous consequences it will bring.

4. Blame Democrats
Trump is not abiding by a federal law on presidential transitions & his noncompliance is kneecapping his own incoming administration
not surprisingly, #DonOLDTrump is refusing to sign the required ethics pledge

Trump didn't need to make this announcement, but he did it (as he does so many things) out of sheer spite and sadistic pettiness.
Four more years of this childish, passive-aggressive bullshit from a narcissistic man-child more interested in television ratings than serving and protecting the people who elected him.
