I mean, what about the banks, doesn’t anyone ever think of the banks? How will the CEOs justify the size of their golden parachutes if the government stops them from bleeding everyone dry?

Only good thing that might come out of this is the fact that Ossoff and Warnock can point out that it’s GOP senators that are blocking an increase. “Vote me in and you’ll get that money” is a compelling argument.

So it’s not even a $900B relief bill, it’s a $350B bill. I guess the rest of the money is from what they authorized with the CARES act that they couldn’t find time to distribute.

Again, you said it yourself. Crunch is the result of poor planning. If you had studied properly throughout the semester, you wouldn’t have to cram right before the test. And companies wouldn’t need to crunch to finish by their arbitrary deadlines if they planned things out properly.

Well, technically he didn’t say who he was briefed by. I’m sure his Russian handlers do think everything is just fine.

Crunch, and especially extreme crunch, is still pretty common at AAA studios, but I don’t know how bad it is at other spots. I’ve worked in video game QA for 10 years, and never had anything I would consider crunch. Maybe a week or two of putting in a couple extra hours a day, but nothing like the death march I hear…

Well, the rules don’t really apply to Trump. You don’t have to look any further than the fact there’s no way in hell DJT or most of his family and staff would qualify for a security clearance under normal circumstances.

A big problem that needed to be addressed, and wasn’t, was the obsession with the deaths. It’s been said by a lot of people by now, but letting GOP asshats portray it as “You either have a small chance of dying, or you are 100% fine” has completely skewed the average person’s view of the risks involved with unsafe…

How were the thousands of deaths in the Great Smog of 1952 classified?

A member of the car got out and rushed at him and that’s where the confrontation took place.

Fun fact: Ken Paxton may have a very strong personal interest in who holds the keys to the federal government, given that he’s currently the subject of an FBI investigation for corruption:

Well, at least we can be assured that having fewer doctors working during the worst days of a pandemic isn’t likely to have any negative repercussions, right?

I’d say this is happening now because it’s about to be approved. That way Team Trump can point to this report and say that they lit a fire under the FDA’s ass as if they did something.

Here’s my question: If the real Nate had nothing to do with the mural, how did he know exactly who painted it?

Oh come on, you expect Stephen Miller to accept help from one of those types?

I love the defense of “Hey, don’t get it twisted. We murder a lot of white people too.”

I imagine it was a matter of actually locating it. Cobb got it off some Jawas, so either they took it off Boba while he was unconscious/recovering from the Sarlacc/whatever, or Boba traded it to them at a point when he maybe had nothing else to offer for food/water/transport. Based on his wanting it back, I’d imagine…

Dude, I found the guy:

I mean, don’t underestimate what centrists are willing to put up with. George W. Bush has somehow rehabbed his image with some folks (by clearing the low bar of “not as transparently evil as Trump”), so who the hell knows.

Nice to know, I guess. Maybe Kinja needs a reminder feature, something like “bring this article back to the top of the feed in a couple months, when it may actually be purchasable”.
