“....whoops! Dropped mah cupcake!”

I’ve always had to pay extra for restraints with an Escort.

The conflict of interest isn’t my concern. I never knew that For Sweden was actually Patrick.

I’m a Proud Southern Conservative White Guy(TM), but f*ck stereotypes all around. I just wrote my Congresspeople (all Republicans) urging them to stall Trump as much as possible, if not outright oppose him. If you want to reform immigration, great! But if you want to be an authoritarian asshole to everyone as part of…

You can argue all you want that Saudi Arabia should be on the list, but you cannot dismiss the fact that he used the Obama administration’s list.

“But Obama...” Nuh uh. Shush.

Woah woah buddy. You need to get out of here before the tolerant disconnected liberals will throw lattes at you. Some words here have a meaning and saying anything like you’re RIGHT automatically gets you NAZI status. Move along and do it quickly before the peaceloving coffeeshop dwellers will beat you to a pulp.…

Pretty sure that’s a Lambo, dude.

Well, they did switch the DP’s from Corvettes to Cadillac DPi’s, witch are mid-engine “top tier” race cars. So this will probably be a Buick.

Dude, the current (or prior) vetting process required lots of waiting. There was a vetting process in place for refugees and visas. No one is advocating for a system where refugees and visa applications are not vetted. That’s not what we had and that’s not what anyone wanted.

The list of countries used is the same list that was put together under the previous administration. Trump just added onto the already increased security measures.

I guess I didn’t really understand the aim of the work stoppage. It seemed like it would only hurt travelers, who were for sure not the people in charge here. If I managed to get through customs after all that and then not be able to get home, I’d be upset.

The thing is, not everybody necessarily wants an 8-hour a day shift job. I’ve toyed around with driving for Uber before simply because there are times after work where I’m bored and it sounds like it would be fun. But I’m not doing so bad that I need to just for the income.

What the union did was to keep any taxi drivers from going rogue and ignore the stoppage. Uber being a collection of “independent contractors” meant it was the driver’s choice to join in with the taxi drivers or go make a quick buck with a couple of additional pickups at JFK. And what happen proves that people will…

Ya basically Uber eliminated the additional incentive (surge pricing) for drivers to work and yet drivers still decided to participate. I’m no Uber apologist, but short of Uber just straight up refusing to take fares from the airport (which also would have received criticism) they did what they could. Lose, lose…

“which responded to the strike by announcing that it was suspending surge pricing, thereby making it easier for people to continue to go to and from JFK during the taxi drivers’ work stoppage”

The whole “not being part of a collective” is the feature, not a bug, of being an Uber driver.

Why is facilitating travel to and from JFK a bad thing?

So, you’re mad at Uber for doing their job and getting a whole bunch of otherwise stranded people home safely?

i see you’re new to washington
