Didn’t he have some sort of health issues a while back? I hope he’s okay, and that includes not being overwhelmed with growth and burnout. Is he also employed? Need family and rest time, sometimes. RL takes precedence.

ETA: it’s possible malicious actors gained control. I’m not saying that’s what happened, I’m saying it’s possible.

Can’t upvote or boost you, we’ll see if I can reply, because I also want updates.

This is why we’re terse.

Once upon a time, people could freely travel across borders. EU citizens still do.

I’m not. Both are horrible and not worth my consideration.

People act like they’ve zero eyes, ears and memory and ballotpedia isn’t a thing. It’s only immoral and unethical when the other person abandons their ethics and morals.

Go away and insist the dnc nominate someone less slimy.

I can’t think of a news source that isn’t corporate garbage, other than DN and a few other indies. Our news has arguably been corporate garbage since Hearst and the Spanish-American War (you can look up his infamous quote, how Pulitzer competed with his publications, etc. For decades, I was a loyal Dem voter, even suppporting Billary; I was disgusted enough after his second term to start looking hard at Kucinich, and that election cycle, the media mentioned him once or twice in a sentence or two; compare that to the platforms they gave Killary, W and other was criminals, or the recently convicted felon.

I’ve learned to be terse in political commentary, if Eve6n commenting at all because I’m sick of being called a Russian bot. I’m not even adverse to the Russian people, nor am I willing to deny genocide, but “Joe doesn’t genocide, you Russian shill” in some form or other gets damned old. Even when he’s playing in our faces, we get told begrudgingly by very few, “he genocides less than the other guy would!” Right, like he’s so different on other policies.

We do need to demand better candidates from the DNC or better, vote for other parties candidates, but only Russian or CCP shills would dare think outside the box.

TBD idk if Oz is a hired or sock puppet account or not, but refusing to question ourselves and our parties and individual candidates doesn’t make us different, from the other side, it just rearranges deck chairs on the Titanic (nation, planet). It’s late and I’m not really interested in arguing the same tired points. Just putting it out there in wild hope someone interested in hearing actually will consider it.

Whatever works! I’m ok with this and it made me smile, in a good way. Thanks op.

including five internal investigations as a recruit and a possible drunk driving incident—but hired him anyway.

But wait! There’s more!

Maybe the counseling should have come* from a LCSW.

Water, water, everywhere,
And all the boards did shrink;
Water, water, everywhere,
Nor any drop to drink.

Happy Cake Day! 🎉🎈 🎂

They probably say the same about us, and make fun of our clothes to hide our massive bald spots. 🤔

Code monkeys?

Why thank you! Shakespeare was philosophical imo, and it shows in his works. . It amazes me he got away with his pointed societal criticisms, without being thrown into a dungeon (afawk) or executed! I had to bite my figurative tongue to keep from comparing Iago to a certain well-known public figure, in my nation, but I’m fairly positive many of us can think of a few comparisons.

Thank you again, for the compliment. May you be well, well-read and philosophical! Ashay!

Progeny

Might be a carbon and unwanted other animal species issues. Bugs, small mammals, and predators thereof. Compost is great but it’s still producing by-products. If distribution and politics could be solved (probably politics is the main barrier in distribution, followed by natural disaster, many of which are the direct result of politics), perhaps these things wouldn’t be a great concern. But I’m not a scientist.

That’s what happens to us too. 😬

That’s basically what happens to all of us!
