They should be so happy to have achieved what they voted for. This is their utopia too and they deserve to enjoy the fruits of their single-principle voting as well.

When they see people sick and poor with no support or hope, young girls risking life and limb to bear the children of their rapists, rotting infrastructure and a rampant xenophobic kleptocracy, they need to stand and say "I helped make this happen!"

Be proud of the utopia you helped build by voting for the Russian agent; either one.

Nah. Grasshopper and the ants.

The only thing we do not tolerate is intolerance itself.

Thank you for helping him represent himself so well.

My dream: mozilla.exe . Too bad it takes SeaMonkey to do mozilla better than Mozilla.

The super majority at the start was those 4 weeks when Dems had any potential. When you get a time machine, go back and tell them to do Roe instead. Don't listen when they absolutely disbelieve Roe is at risk. We all thought Roe was safe back then.

Ha ha #bothSides . still?!?

That's a very true statement. I expect reams of downvotes.

What? You mean 'popular' is not the same as 'best' (or often not even 'good'; see 'trump') ? Un-possible!!

Also. Let's talk about weirdos who do not close their bio-waste disposal .

Crash test dummies?

Sorry, my Finger Eleven album is feeling triggered.

Coronavirus is here to stay now, just like the flu.

By 'the flu', do you mean that virus where one entire strain was eradicated by masking and distancing over the winter?

THAT flu? The one with the strain that died out after trivial effort? Do you want to use it as an example of some perennial curse, or are you saying that we can eradicate covid again with similarly trivial effort?

It's gonna be emacs. You know it, we all fear it, but it's gonna be emacs and some visicalc-mode shit.

No chance of help to protect his homeland from belligerent invasion? You've got to cut the losses.

Then Russia can invade in another 10 years and take more. Yay! It can be an every-decade thing!

listen to what the people are screaming for.

Progressives promise "better for the American 99%".

People screaming for something no party could deliver or neither candidate could promise were confused. People who voted for the worst option imaginable for all factors including the impossibilities they were demanding are morons who deserve the leopards.

Perfect is the enemy of better.

This has been explained so many times.

Assertion unsupported by any facts.

It's neat how the receipt and storage of push 'notes could easily leverage the short-message idea in the original sendmail spec.

I feel triggered by this entire sub-chat. My comments are half flippant, half heckle, half earnest and actual, half pedantic, half questioning, and no math (clearly).

Point is, I'm gonna offend people and their judgement will be sticky. What if my first impression is for a dickish reminder about mass nouns or a jab against the GqP? I love this part.

Please tell me there's a tag that says "80% horseshit but occasionally a mild zinger or honest comment" to put up near my name. We all can't be consistently awesome like FlyingSquid !

Honestly, I just want to go through all these sites and red-pen the basic English errors. We're supposed to be better than this.

Also, the house is BONKERS-gorgeous. I can dig the quasi-finished basement and the uncovered window near the bath - that'd be fixed soon! - but the painted-wood floors really take me back to my youth (although they were painted for us because we had no money to put proper flooring down). I love the exposed hot-water heating, as our unfinished basement had that along the roof neat the support structure, too. For me, this is all retro-based joy.

But that room; what do you do? Paint would desecrate it, but leaving its eyesore self is also sacrilege. One can only either sell the entire house on as this owner has done, or perhaps find a way to remove the roof and wall panels and rebuild them in some rich wank's monkey-house somewhere else. Rich bastard's not taking the floors but he can have the custom finishes too.

All this for c$8k/mo . That's double my rent, and we're really proud of our new apartment, in a big building with AC standard, atop a huge secure garage and in the middle of a relaxing 15-min mini-city design just steps from the metro. I can't be lured away for double, brick walls and painted mohogany be damned.
