I'm tired from being aggravated. Seeing news anchors make light of it doesn't help. If only I could ignore, y'know, my country's incompetent government and party system. #politics
@Eulimnadia That's awesome! Wish I was around then to say the same. I'd pay modern prices for music that good.
@GaryPoole Split between lone wolf and the nerd group, but my childhood best friend was part of the "cool kids", so I wasn't labelled a loser & got invited to most parties.
That'd be Skyrim, so... assuming I can't find a bed and sleep for 24 hours 365 times, I'd probably be eaten by a sabre cat.
Wolf skeleton, decorated as a warrior with an atlatl, gold disc and shell necklace. Found at Templo Mayor in Mexico City. Dated to 15th century.
@sqlcheesecake So are functioning governments, apparently.
Why in God's name do they have a time limit if they're not gonna follow it? #politics
@Bubblehead
You're probably right. Jeffries or concessions best-case.
@Bubblehead
Absolutely not. McCarthy is a stooge even by modern Republican standards, and his refusal to back down is holding up an entire section of our governmental process.
I'm holding out that Democratic pressure will either lead to defectors for Jeffries or a more amicable nominee from the Repubs, if one even exists at this point. At least more concessions away from their crazier platforms, which would still be somewhat of a win.
@Bubblehead
Hopefully something will have been sorted out by then. Can't see them doing more than a few votes tonight before tapping out until tomorrow again.
@Museek From what I understand, he has to be sworn in before they can get rid of him.
@MookyTroubadour Yeah, sometimes I get lost in idealism.
@Bubblehead I'm not against the procedure, I'm against adjourning early for the day while we don't have a functioning House. Our tax dollars are being used to pay these people to essentially "get off work early" because they can't agree on a speaker.
Make them stay for a 12 hour shift with an hour lunch break, like many taxpayers get, and then see how long it takes for them to make a deal one way or the other.
Every day that our House adjourns early instead of figuring this crap out, each member should be docked 1/365th of their pay. This is ridiculous. #politics
Good morning! Sleeping schedule has been out of whack due to headache, hopefully today I get some relief.
Tired of getting headaches every time the weather changes suddenly. Nothing to do but sleep them off...
