Fair enough. No, you did not.
But if anyone thinks Biden doesn't support DeJoy yet is unable to fire him while controlling 7/9ths of the board, the implication is inescapable.
@ChristopherNoyesRoberts @SenescentDrummer13 @Chiefb2
The proof is in the pudding. Biden's postal board has an unstoppable supermajority.
Let's imagine Biden secretly wants to get rid of DeJoy. After 2 years of trying he can't find 5 people to do it. Are you claiming Biden is utterly incompetent?
p.s. With dozens of legislators (and tens of thousands of other people) asking him to have the board #FireDejoy, Biden has NEVER replied affirmatively.

Do you have another account for politics?
Yes to #BoycottFlorida.

The maskers are also all vaccinated (flu & covid); some of the non-maskers are not.
@yogapaddlerun
My SO & I haven't.
She has a public-facing job; among her coworkers, none who mask consistently have caught it (or flu or RSV), while the non-maskers all had at least one respiratory illness in the past year.

Pay attention please:
BIDEN.
SUPPORTS.
DEJOY.
The Postal Board met 2 weeks ago.
Biden controls 7 of the 9 seats (including 2 Trumpies he willingly chose not to replace).
If he wanted the Board to #FireDeJoy, it would have happened.

1: Yes, assuming a measurement is too difficult was a mistake.
2: Do we have enough evidence to be sure it's a particle ring? Tidal forces are pretty well understood.
3: What do you think of Ethan Siegel's take? "The authors are assuming the existence of a coupling that isn’t [necessarily] there and ascribing the perceived evolution of the black hole-to-stellar mass ratio to [it]"

1: People like crafting. Same reason Legos are popular, plus recipes & magic.
2: People like modding. Redstone is Turing-complete, and the game engine itself is also heavily customizable.

@BrazenlyLiberal Disable microphone & camera access for every app that doesn't need it, and only allow it for the rest while the app is running.
Disable Siri, Cortana, or Hey Google entirely.

The lies and hypocrisy are an essential tool to dissociate their followers from the notion of objective reality.

Umm...
In 1941 there were ~133M people in the US.
For the past 30+ years, there were ~140M births per year worldwide (of which ~4M were in the US), and nearly as many deaths.
The world is lot bigger than the US.
Why do you think that's mind-blowing?
@JoyfullyDazed I'd already have cashed out and moved to a better country. If mail in ballots exist in your hell world, I'd write in.
@M5B1tch @CathSterner @Tom4okstate @AuntCrabby Let's be more clear about this:
Republicans + Manchin, Sinema, Hassan (and possibly other conservative Dems) don't support $15 wage.
We should name & #shame every time, especially when those names go beyond Manchin & Sinema.
@BagLady Not the polls, the early & mail vote totals. I don't see landslide kind of numbers.
I'm going to have a knot in my stomach for at least a week.

For the most part, it's salaried professionals who get holidays off.
Service industry workers still have to show up.
