If it makes you feel better they're super shitty to their paying customers too.

You may be able to get in at an electric utility, preferably public power or a co-op. They tend to need both low and high voltage electricians and engineers.

But it's not supposed to be literal!

I'm not up to the current seasons yet. Any change in writing quality?

I think I vehemently disagree with you on principle, but it's a point I hadn't thought of before, so thank you for pointing out that perspective.

Also... fuck the cobbled together mess that is English.

Edit: some of it is regional pronunciations too

Try something like Wyndly. Same stuff that's in the shots, just sublingual. Have to do it every day, but can do it at home.

This was the first and the one thing they united to do everything in their power to ensure passage in 2016.

Everything else following was theater and/or smaller scale quid pro quo. Those actions still have serious consequences, especially for reproductive rights and minorities, but delivering money to the wealthy is the one true gospel.

Microsoft makes its money from business and enterprise customers. Home users are a drop in the bucket.

Money from home users is from stealing data.

People are worms, stuffed into a meat sack with appendages that make it easier to put food into the worm.

My favorite is when the question starts out with "I don't have insurance and can't afford to see a doctor, but I have dandruff and it just won't go away", and the first response is "I know you said you can't afford it, but you should really just see a doctor".

Like, sure, homeopathy is slightly better than snake oil because it doesn't generally have random poison in it, so getting recommendations for that is worthless. But that doesn't mean asking people who have been through similar things for advice is also worthless.

the people of South Dakota, not the politicians in Pierre, will be the ones to decide whether to restore Roe v. Wade as the law of South Dakota

This reminds that although abortion rights are the most important result of Roe v Wade, there are other rights that were abrogated when it was overturned. It's hard to say all that was lost, and those generally won't be recovered with these efforts.
