It’s also a one time payment, so you’ll have to make it stretch for a few months.

“Why would they become productive members of society again after being fired when they could just sit at home for 2 years?”

Unlike Joe Biden who is a holy saint, if you ignore the groping, and support of segregation that is

Say what you will about the bugfuck weirdness of having a falling helicopter kill off one of your characters, but at least it’s memorable and hilariously amusing.

I would very much prefer that the whole nation get to vote on the same day, perhaps using a ranked choice voting system

Sorry to hear about your mom. For my dad it was March 2018 for the diagnosis, and he made it to July. My guess is that the biggest difference for Alex is in getting the diagnosis early, and that’s where being able to afford the best doctors in the country/world can really make the difference. I know my dad was…

The Good Place

Brava, Mama Wang.

That . . . is a surprisingly refreshing review of the attitudes of a low-information voter. That’s not a disparagement.

I went to school in Rochester, and winters were the *worst*. Due to the proximity to the lakes it took forever to actually warm up in the spring. We’d get snow showers throughout April, and one year we got 2" of snow on Mother’s Day.

Considering there’s literally no reason to vote for Biden other than his not being Trump, they’ll have a tough time with that

Yeah, Biden is the one candidate I could see Trump just trouncing in a debate.

You don’t have to have $10,000 to invest, lots of brokerage companies offer free accounts with no minimum and allow you to trade for free as well. You could open a Fidelity account and invest $10 into their fee free total market mutual fund and you wouldn’t pay a dime to buy or sell into the fund nor would you pay a…

Without a doubt. From an economic and social perspective, many people within and for the Dem establishment would prefer four more years of Trump over Sanders winning.

I have absolutely no trouble believing that if the Democratic Party leadership has to choose between defeating Trump and preserving their intra-party power, they’ll choose the second without the slightest hesitation

Yes, paying for medicare for all is a thing.
