Why give them a second chance?

It figures that he’s a big “meetings” guy. Meetings are total bullshit. To paraphrase Mojo Nixon: you could take all of the relevant/useful information from all of the meetings that I’ve attended in the last 20 years and shove it up a gnat’s ass, and it would roll around in there like a BB in a boxcar.

It would be fun to respond, “Let me run this past my neighbor. He’s a consumer protection lawyer and he loves shit like this. What was your name again?”

I know that it is way too early to predict what will happen, but teenagers in the USA these days are actually mobilizing, speaking out - and I have no doubt registering to vote. There is a lot of them, and they know that the politicians being funded with NRA money don’t care about them. Gun nuts might be noisy and

I am so proud of what these young people have accomplished in such a short period of time. Maga supporters are running scared.

Last car I purchased, I traded in equity positive, so in essence, I got my new car, and a cheque back from the dealership for the difference in price between my trade and the new wheels. Of course they couldn’t cut a cheque right then, and said come back Tuesday. Fair enough. The dealer is out of my way, but I roll up

Alternate headline: Neil Gorsuch does exactly what he was appointed to do.

We need universal, single payer health care and a universal basic income. More importantly: we need to build affordable housing and decentralize food and essential materials distribution, or at least diversify regional agriculture and livestock farming. And we have to stop this fracking shit before it destroys our

This was correct.

“Now the interesting thing about both cases is that in the grand scheme of a new car sale, $100 to $200 is a small amount. If a legitimate dealer really did make a mistake to the tune of $140, they would probably just eat that cost and move on. Badgering what should have been a happy customer for that amount of money

“Funny you say I owe that much, because the fee for calling me and attempting to get money from me despite the signed contract is exactly the amount you just said”

They’d lose more than $140 if I got a call like that. My reply would be “And now I am never taking my car to your dealership for service or for anything else as a result of this dishonesty. Way to lose your entire dealership thousands.”

We should just call mass shootings “’Merica murders” now.

We also shouldn’t have to live in the world where boys are brought up believing ‘If she doesn’t want to, push harder’ and girls are arm-twisted into ‘being nice.’

And also- everyone has been rejected at some point in their life. Coping with rejection is an essential life skill. It makes me crazy to hear the same conservatives who rail about participation trophies and entitlement turn around and act like it’s understandable to murder someone for saying “no” to you!

If I see one more article using the words “romantic” or “spurned” and implicitly laying this girl’s death and others at her feet for making the shooter do this, I will set something on fire. Conservatives are all over this, with their “if she had just been nice to him!” schtick that does nothing but harm women and

Yeah, but see, you don’t have bootstraps, and you’re all incredibly weak and helpless little creatures, because you chose to allow your government to shoulder tbe burdens that modern society places on a population, just because you, as a people, have the grasp of subtlety and nuance to recognize that while capitalism

But while it’s heartwarming to watch friends, family, and strangers alike rally around a family in need, consider how much more heartwarming it would be if we lived in a country that actually provided comprehensive and affordable medical care, and there wasn’t a plague of gun violence which caused teachers to risk
