Sounds like there’s still time for Biden to go all “Do they *really* need $1400?” on us.

They’re like realtors. Just there to make sure the “right people” end up in the “right car/neighborhood”.

No idea. I’ve lived here for a couple of years now and apparently they don’t enforce traffic laws. Ever. 

Am I the only one who thought German Shepards were not a great look for a presidential pet? I only associate them with cops and war. I’m sure they’re a great breed outside of that, but usually the White House pet is something a little more friendly. 

I grew up with an elderly dad who was definitely old school. It took a good couple of years being away from that for me to drop a lot of those viewpoints that had become normalized for me.

The alternative is to not use social media at all, but I imagine some people would find that even more objectionable than some shitty tweets. I’m just glad I never had to deal with this when I was starting my career.

I have some cousins who are roughly the same age as the Mumford guys. They immediately dropped their squeaky clean church image back when Mumford & Sons got big and turned into painfully hipster versions of their churchy selves. Ten plus years later and they still look like Mumford & Sons rejects, but their political…

Ariel Pink’s mullet even looks better than that.

Oh, look, it’s this guy....

A cherry Datsun 510 - yellow with a black vinyl top - that my high school auto shop teacher agreed to sell to me for $750 back in the early 90's. I even had the money but my dad squashed it. Probably for the better because I went out and got a ‘69 BMW 2500. I still kick myself for not putting up more of a fight though,

I remember camping out overnight outside of Best Buy for a PS2 only to have a truck full of goons show up an hour before opening and rush the door. What was a peaceful and orderly line of people turned into a mob as everyone else ran up to the door. Thankfully, a BB employee had the presence of mind to hand out…

I know, right? And if you start giving people more money for the same work they’re going to just go blow it on cocaine and lottery tickets.

Playing Devil’s advocate, but I’m sure he meant to tell them to “stay on the reservation”.

DNC’s new slogan: Everyone Loses!

Not to mention claiming they want to focus on only the most needy when justifying their decision to lower the threshold for the checks, but not putting that $12 billion they saved toward those at the bottom. You could have those $2k checks for the most needy but they just decided to move that money somewhere else. Kind…

You do realize this is all part of a $1.9 trillion dollar package, right? Just doing right by people and rounding that up to $2k is not going to break the bank. The political damage of this bait and switch might end up costing them more politically.

And if you’re having difficulties unscrewing your mason jar lid, using a rubber dish glove will do wonders.

I read the amount was too miniscule to be redirected elsewhere. At any rate if you asked someone working minimum wage if they would’ve preferred that money coming to them versus going to businesses the answer would be obvious. Stop your corporatist nonsense. We need direct payment to actual human beings who need it…

OMG for real? You consider this a “big win”? They literally had to do this, had a fucking mandate with a majority and a Dem. President, and they still compromised! With themselves! We got more money faster with fucking Trump in office and The Grim Reaper running the Senate.

I only have bad memories of “The Greatest Love of All”. We had a really mean track coach when I was in high school who made us all listen to that song while he gave us a pep talk. About half the group ended up having to do wall sits the entire time because we couldn’t stop cracking up.
