Wow. So MAYBE another round of stimulus crumbs, almost a YEAR after the first $1200? Too little too late for millions of Americans. The direct cash payments & UE benefits for the people should’ve been RECURRING for the duration of the crisis like it is other countries that are actually doing a good job. The US has…

I try to only have my pinned (Chrome) tabs still open at the end of the day. Usually works out, but sometimes I’ll have a few too many middle-clicked articles to read so I just skim & close ‘em, or if it’s really worthwhile I’ll use the ancient bookmark function (and then never revisit it).

Legendary Whitetails are the best flannels, IMO. $30/shirt, though.

You can also get free 4x4 ceramic tile “samples” from just about every Home Depot I’ve ever been to. You’re supposed to take ‘em home to help decide on a larger purchase, though, and not glue felt onto the bottom to make coasters.

Even better deals are to be had on slightly-used high-end chairs if you look. Lots of offices won’t be reopening any time soon, so keep an eye out for liquidation sales, and on ebay.

One of the many great things about Ranked Choice Voting (RCV)— which Maine has, and NYC may soon have — is that there is no possibility for needless runoff DO-OVER elections.

*Shrug* <— The millions of people still without healthcare in the wealthiest country on earth.

Also known as... a Universal Basic Income.

Smoking anything, even something as harmless as pot, means you’re inhaling combustion carcinogens into your lungs, so increased lung cancer odds SHOULD mean you’re paying more. But just because you have THC in your drug test doesn’t mean you smoked it; could’ve eaten it, vaped it, or bong hit it.

Why is this so hard?

Life insurance? Two words immediately come to mind: scam and fraud. Nobody needs it and I’m forever amazed it even exists.

Agreed. I’m on my second MS Natural 4000 keyboard, and before that had the original white MS Natural with built-in USB hub (from Y2K). No good reason to upgrade to a more expensive keyboard, as the *only* problem I have atm is that the black wrist rest pad covering has started flaking off, which is only cosmetic.

Margaret Cho doesn’t leave anything to chance when she flirts. Her no-nonsense pickup line is to simply shout: “STICK IT IN!” ... :)

No - the two corporate parties really are just different shades of evil. And if the Democrats lose this election it’ll be because of the same failure as last time: they moved even further rightward and gave the true “socialist” progressive left nothing of real substance to vote FOR (vs against). People are tired of…

1) Rank. Choice. Voting.

Nothing Will Fundamentally Change, which is the problem.

Giggity

This is just kicking the eviction can down the road until after the election for tens of millions of people. No actual past due rent has been forgiven, and no emergency UBI provided to pay for it, so the eviction tsunami is still coming. The rich got their bailout, the market snapped back to record highs, and then…

And if you’re outside, and more than 6 feet away, please keep your a-hole “your nose is out” comments to yourself.

I know, right? For under $300 you can get a 10-inch memory foam mattress delivered, which is indistinguishable in comfort. I don’t understand who’s spending thousands on mattresses...
