This makes me nervous about the Criterion Channel.

Damn I slept better than I thought.

Consensual Death would be a good band name.

Just a sode note, even if he was a financial genius, it isn’t his job to “lead the economy”. At best he would supposed to accomplish that through appointments and consensus if that were his goal. Here isnhis job description per the constitution:

The U.S. Constitution contains the only official “job description” for the President of the United States. According to Article II, Sections 2 and 3, the President:

1. Is the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces of the United **States, and of each state’s militia when the nation has need of it **> 2) Has power to obtain information and opinions from heads of the executive departments
2. May grant pardons and reprieves for crimes against the United States
3. Makes treaties with other countries with the approval of the Senate
4. Appoints ambassadors, federal judges and heads of executive departments – all subject to the approval of the Senate; the President also has power to fill any vacancies that may happen while the Senate is in recess
5. Must report to Congress from time to time about the state of the union and recommend whatever measures he thinks are necessary
6. May call members of Congress together on extraordinary occasions, as well as adjourn their meetings when they cannot agree on their own about when to do this
7. Receives foreign ambassadors and other public officials
8. Is responsible for enforcing the nation’s laws
9. Issues commissions to all officers of the United States

Am I missing the article link?

I will always bring this up. During the “birthday card” period, Trump was a Democrat. Democrats don’t care whonis implicated, we just want to punish ghouls.

The “lesson” will be that the truly wealthy will stay so, and the rest of us will be pushed farther away, the discrepancy between our stations will diverge even further, and the relative wealth of the tippy top will increase just that much more. Don’t think for a minute that this bubble, or any bubble for that matter, is not egged on by those insulated from it’s poppings consequences.

This for me is the weird cishet paradox. So afraid to look “weak”, that they obsess over not looking weak. But you know what looks super weak? Being insecure about being weak. Like, the more you have to prove you’re a big tough guy, the less big and tough you seem.

Also, I feel like they’ve never considered that gay doesn’t necessarily mean effeminate. Or even that effeminate doesn’t necessarily mean weak/meek.

I think Run is Capadonna, not Ghostface, unsure if that’s helpful or not.

You’re more right than you may know.

An actual city wall existed on the street from 1653 to 1699. During the 18th century, the location served as a slave market and securities trading site, and from 1703 onward

Same reason all brats are brats. No one wants to deal with the tantrums so they take the “easy” route and placate instead.

Epstein files, yo.

It’s a real shame when they go old like that.

Yeah, the thing about this asshole is that he has no sense of humor. There’s no way he doesn’t mean it. And the fact that he proudly displays this in the fucking whitehouse is most troubling indeed. Best case scenario, he means one of his idiot sons, but let’s be real about who we’re dealing with here.

The pants may pose a challenge and require some preplanning, but 15° is probably perfect to make sitting cross legged pretty comfortable. Bonus benefit, they can’t identify you by your feet.

who knows

Better. We know they would look better. We could have elected a dryer with a magic 8-ball inside of it and done better.

His mismanagement of covid alone is damning.
