Everyone here needs mental help. 😑

AIPAC and organisations like stopantisemitism have made it their mission in this world to ensure that there is no public distinction between Jewish people as a whole and the nation of Israel.

Does Israel really think people are that stupid?

Looking at their propaganda, yes. Yes they do. And their super PACs ensure that the politicians they've pocketed parrot the same lines they say.

I've got another 5 or 6 years with my FX-8150.

I wouldn't know I haven't used Google search in about 3 months.

“My focus is my constituents and doing what’s best for them—how else will this empty floodplain produce $1 million for people in our town?” Messer said. “Nothing is going do that but solar. I’m happy to use the IRA, but if I had a national role my view might be different. I mean printing money and giving it away to people won’t solve inflation, it will make it worse.”

This is real proof that a basic economics class should be mandatory to hold political office. This guy is the mayor and he hasn't a clue how inflation works. Yet he's talking to the press like he's some kind of authority.

(although it can and will, especially if used improperly).

I guess that why, with the exception of the first 2 entries, every other instance is for training.

Amazon shares ticked lower in afternoon trading.

I'm gonna have a really great laugh if/when the share price nose dives because office personnel start bugging out.

This whole "I want us to operate like the world's largest startup" crap is just infantile for the CEO of a multi-national conglomerate to be spouting and making into corporate policy. No one wants to work for a multimillion dollar "startup" with over a million and a half employees.

Working for startups is stressful as fuck and the incentives are to get a piece of the pie once the startup goes big. Amazon is already massive and the pie has already been eaten by those who came before. All they have left is corporate stability and he's just kicked the legs out from under that.

Over half the people I work with are fairly old, most of them above 60. None of them stink. Being old doesn't necessarily mean you smell bad. Having bad hygiene however...

She's actually been fairly effective for a new congressman. But in order to get meaningful change she needs both position and allies in congress. She has a number of allies (AKA The Squad) but because Congress is so full of old fucks, getting a position in a committee with any power at all is difficult at best.

Meanwhile Jill Stein goes on TV, snipes at the democratic party and collects paychecks, all while eroding the party's position all for literally no benefit whatsoever. The Green Party has been the single most ineffective third party in the history of the country. The only thing they've accomplished is siphoning off votes from Democrat presidential candidates and getting Republicans elected.

They actually hate you more. I think it's because a person who has transitioned from being a man to a woman has discarded the only thing they value.
