@danialexis If the Muskrat truly cared about the environment, Tesla wouldn't have grossly contaminated so many sites in California. Of course, it's probably cheaper for them to settle for a $1.5 million fine instead of doing it the right way in the first place. (Kind of like most entities with information security)

@FrankCannon @process *shudders* I wouldn't wish our health insurance system on our worse enemies.

My opinion of (primarily American) politicians in general, is that they are by-and-large not interested in improving things for the people / country. Rather, they are focused on maintaining or gaining a grip on the levers of power as part of a ruling caste, because "they know what the countries / populations needs are better than the people." Ex: the insurance system big corporations want.

@Razdawg22 So do I!!

@Razdawg22 Only if they’ve got the specs you’re looking for. Don’t give up performance for the shiny disco lights! 😉

@Brisse "Well first of all, I didn't get angry at you for asking that. Second, when I wake up in the morning, I don't hate myself. Thirdly, I generally don't dislike others, unless they have earned that distinction. In those rare cases, I try to say a prayer that they will be granted the gift of wisdom, to understand the friction their actions have caused for others."

But yeah, @mcfate is right - it's not on you to provide an answer to that sort of silliness.

Maybe Tesla should take that 55 billion they were going to pay Elon, and use it to start cleaning up their hazardous waste mess in CA?

@rpardee I feel as though whatever said word is, it should rhyme with “tomfuckery.” 😏

@Susandoyle Noice! I've always been partial to this version...
I think I've always envisioned the rocker version of @th3j35t3r as Nuno, lmfao!!

@th3j35t3r …if you pull up Xtree, I’m gonna flip out!! 🤓🤓

@kel I dunno, I tried this a couple years ago, and it didn't work.

The "enter" key did come off the keyboard and get stuck in my boss' beard, and that was pretty funny! 😜

@mikeflstfi Huh, an excuse to mess with my drop pedal! 😎

@ErFlynnArt You should also support writers by signing him up for a choice selection of... "periodicals" that he might enjoy! 😈

@process Fascinating! Does this also impact any potential reunification scenario with the southern portion?

Out of curiosity, how do you refer to the Republic of Ireland and the Northern section where you are in day-to-day speech?

@tifroggie Congrats!
