It stinks because RadioShack was always an easy place to pick up a capacitor or diode for an emergency fix, but I accept that is a super niche need and it’s surprising that the store has lasted as long as it has.

Good. All this shit is produced in the US so I am happy for the workers who will build this stuff.

I’m quite comfortable with calling the release of classified information to scum like Assange espionage. She didn’t steal girl scout cookies.

Oh, you mean espionage. Right, I get it now.

I could care less what he or you do or call yourselves. just don’t try to force people to play along with you. You want to chop off your dick and have a faux vagina installed that’s ok with me, but don’t try to force me to call you a she.

“Traitor” is gender neutral.

I’ll brave the internet hate and ask: just because someone “identifies” as something they’re not we all have to play along or have our lives destroyed? If so, I identify as a tiger. I’m going to get stripe tattoos and don’t you dare call me anything except tiger.

More likely, you will have your clearance pulled. When you lose your clearance, you will likely lose your job (as the job requires the clearance) and it will be a firing with cause. This means you will lose benefits and stuff.

Need to know also implies that there are control mechanisms with the information, such as the agency that collected the intel can control who can even see it. No intel is supposed to be shared without their permission.

My view: thousands of years, people have not spoken ill of the dead in the immediate aftermath. I think this is a good tradition.

Clinton supporters, literally, have no idea what this means.

They also defaulted to sneering contempt for the people there. You can only mock and condescend so long.

Also blanket calling that belt of people all privileged racists probable didnt help.

Democrats forgot the group for whom they were supposed to be working. They switched from actual workers to corporations.

Ah... so someone who wants to defend themselves is a pussy. Man, you’re a real mensch. Lemme guess, a REAL man* like you would just jump at 4 guys trying to rob you and kick their asses, single-handed. Amirite?

*We all know you’d piss yourself and end up in a corner sucking your thumb.

I started thinking about those cable-news gun debates where you always hear the same argument:

If science were doing its job to begin with, it never would have been published in the first place. Up until today, this would have been pointed to as a valid, published, and peer reviewed study which could be relied upon as factual. That’s a problem.
