I’m always amazed at how Republican voters continue to elect people who don’t give a shit about them. Cruz left to go to Cancun while hundreds of his constituents froze to death. He spends all his time licking Trump’s taint and trolling on Twitter.

I work in the casino industry. What you may not know is that dealers are a tipped position. It's around minimum - $10 per hour plus tips. They have convinced most (or enough) of the dealers that unions are a terrible idea, and that they'd somehow make less money.

It’s “contagious” because people think it’s contagious. If the wrong people see you with the “wrong people”, they won’t hire you, & you become poor. A self-fulfilling prophecy built of social stigma.

Hey Maggie, look we get it you enjoyed being The “Trump Whisperer” at The NYT but really stop. Look we know you craven assholes in the media miss him and really think that boring competency is bad for your ratings & clicks but the rest of us are pretty content with Lord Stretch Marks of Mar-A-Lago gone. How about…

There’s a happy medium. Like a lot of the bathyscaphes of the race-to-the-bottom economy, Amazon could have made a great deal of money without putting the screws to workers quite so hard.

It’s an interesting thing that’s happened over the last 30-40-50 years maybe. pendulum has certainly moved from workers’ rights/working condition to heavy support for the c-suite (not even counting the “rockstar” CEOs).

We’ve really vilified the poor. You’re poor because you’re dumb or don’t work hard. And speaking up…

I mean, abolishion for everyone probably is the actual goal here.

I believe some Republican tried to make a similar argument to “own the libs” and Tammy Duckworth and a couple of the other women vets were all for women being required to register for the draft.

I don’t wish to sound rude, but I’m ecstatic I don’t live in your country. =|

Yup. Let the apes have a shot.

She can also forge the signatures of all of the Spice Girls, if memory serves.  Emma Stone is a veritable font of impractical talents.

I like your idea. I was going to suggest that other than a ban from the airline that the incident occured on, they have a lifetime 50% surcharge on any and all future flight tickets - an asshole tax, if you will. But, yeah, your idea is better.

My lady friend has often talked about how Trump stoked hatred and anger in this country. I’ve always downplayed it, because while I believe he has done that with the MAGA crowd and the racists, I didn’t think one person, even POTUS, could get average Americans so angry at each other. I might be wrong.

The guy that intervened was having exactly none of Karen’s bullshit and good for him.

I fully support throwing the book at these fuckers, flying is unpleasant enough without these stupid assholes lashing out at the people who’s job it is to keep you safe and comfortable while you’re stuffed in a metal tube with a bunch…

This reminds me of all the “one-person IT department” listings I used to see just out of college. They had the gall to claim that they were paying low rates since it was “entry level” but then wanted applicants to have 2 years or more experience in multiple programming languages, database server development (and…

No background checks either. Are you a felon, out on parole after a violent crime? Is there a restraining order against you protecting the ex-spouse or child you beat to within an inch of their life? Do you need a gun to commit an act of terrorism? Don’t worry, Texas has your back.

The Republicans really seem to have a talent for speaking out of both sides of their mouths:

This. For a group of people who are so eager to deride courtesy & kindness as “virtue signaling”, they’re pretty capable of virtue signaling too. Deeds, not words.

Her fellow fascists might tsk tsk her for continuing to be a shrieking nutjob but would they support throwing her stupid bigoted ass out of the House? Gonna guess no. So they can take their wagging fingers and insert them deeply into their own asses.

I’m just here to offer a regular reminder that just because a virus is survivable, doesn’t mean it isn’t still bad. I survived my two weeks with COVID fine, but a year of ever increasing medical problems that are all related to the infection are what is causing the real damage. Damage to my life, my physical health,…
