While it’s obviously less dramatic or “sexy” than disgruntled employee taking a stand over the shitty work conditions at ND (people almost being crushed by work going on in the building would send alarm bells going in the UK along with serious financial repercussions from lawsuits by trade unions and fines handed down…

Someone tell Cloud he’s not in Smash Bros anymore

I’ve done a good bit of the more common psychedelics, acid and shrooms mostly. They never really made me trip the way people describe it in movies and such. I got tracers, brighter colors, odd thought patterns and the body high that usually accompanies those substances but nothing more.

The idea that Musk genuinely cares about the planet, and didn’t just find a market set-dressing he could exploit, gets more remote by the day.

This just reminds me of how amazing that game was.

Okay, but she says she told her brother, friend, and mother. The former two have corroborated it, and there is contemporary evidence of the latter discussing the allegation. And her neighbor has now come forward to say Reade talked about it decades ago. So...

“Listen to women!”

Stop blaming progressives for Warren. She made the case she could bridge the progressive and moderate wings of the Democratic party and that didn’t happen. Progressives had a strong and more viable candidate in Bernie Sanders, moderates did not and turned against Warren.

People think the vetting process is like a criminal background check. It’s not. It focuses on checking past political positions, votes, writings, etc., for stuff that will sting a candidate when the press finds out about it. With the exception of the report that Reade alleges she filed, there would be no paper trail…
