Well, that free software I’m writing? I may have to charge double, maybe triple due to the Trump win.
Elon Musk digs his multibillion dollar hole deeper.
“Following the US presidential election, Swifties, the name for Taylor Swift’s fans, are fleeing X for Bluesky. X’s owner, billionaire Elon Musk, was one of Donald Trump’s biggest backers, funneling over $100 million into the Trump-supporting America PAC; stumping for the candidate on the campaign trail; and boosting Trump’s messaging on X.”
Bots rage tweeting other bots.
Maybe it will go under.

“We’re going to fix everything about electric cars, and the reason is because they’re all electric,” an unnamed source close to the project said. “Yes, putting massive V8s into three million or so electric cars isn’t going to be easy, but we’ll do it for the American people. We’ll deliver strong, safe and hugely potent eight-cylinder drivetrains into even the most humdrum of EVs. We’re going to lead the greatest V8 comeback in American history.”

I'm not sure if I love these or feel 😬 about where the feet go.

Ugh. If I read one more fucking article by an idiot who doesn’t understand the economy was a heartbeat away from a Great Depression four years ago I’m going to fucking scream.
“Am I better off than I was four years ago?”
Yes.
We now have COVID vaccinations. The economy is healthy. More people are working than in 2020 (we had a recession then, did you know that? Most people don’t BECAUSE IT WAS SO FUCKING AWFUL).
Opinion without facts? This is propaganda.

One last one: when people said, “I need to know more about Harris” what they were saying is, “Trump is a horrible person, surely Harris can’t get to where she is without ALSO being a horrible person”—yes, she can.
I’ve know many successful people who just amazingly nice. Both men and women. They are few and far between but they do exist.
Harris is the real deal. She got where she is through hard work. Trump got to where he is through rape, racism and $400 million from his dad.
SCOTUS : It makes the president immune from prosecution for actions where he's obviously exercising his official role. He is not immune for acts unrelated to his role.
The President is charged with protecting this country from enemies foreign and domestic.
Seal team six is under the President’s command.

Wall Street Journals take
• Thus they passed, on a party-line vote, a $1.9 trillion pandemic-relief bill that wasn’t really needed, fueling the highest inflation in decades.
Um, no. That isn’t what happened. Inflation was on the rise PRIOR to the bill. In fact, it started coming down AFTER the bill was passed.
History. WSJ slept during it.
"What an irony that on the same day an older woman goes to court to face the consequences of a rape culture, a rapist is voted into the highest office of the land in another country.
When Gisèle decided that 'shame must change sides' and asked for the trial to be held in public, she transformed her pain into something powerful which provided opportunities for us to talk about how sexism and misogyny feed into rape culture."
Bernie Sanders: "It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them. First, it was the white working class, and now it is Latino and Black workers as well."
Really, oh sage?
How? How does the smallest unemployment in over 50 years translate to “forgetting the working class?”
Is your argument that Trump was better?
Classical blame the victim.
JFC.

“The entry-level M4 Mac mini, with 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, is $599. Boosting that to 32GB RAM and 512GB SSD is an additional $600”
$1199. Okay, I’m missing something. Samsung’s top of the line PHONE costs $1119 and it’s just a phone with anemic speed.
This writer is just sad.
There are two America’s—the insanely rich and the rest of us.
To the rich, what we consider expensive is nothing. A $500 meal? $5.
Stewart, in my hypothetical, makes about $40 PER MINUTE. A five minute poop? He makes $200 bucks. The $50K worker? 40 CENTS.
Yet we are held to a different standard. Our boss and bosses boss want us in and out of the toilet fast. Because it cost the company FORTY FUCKING CENTS.
There are two Americas.
And you are getting screwed by the rich one.
