“But Jesus Christ she complains less about how unfair the election was than the guy who fucking won it.” The last paragraph should be repeated probably a million times! Thank you!

I was thinking more like guillotines, but yeah.

You and me both, amica.

He was, in fact he gave a talk at the New Economic School in Moscow in the summer of 2016. His connections seem to be more with Gazprom, the Russian state gas company, but it’s not a stretch to think that people at two state companies would talk to each other.

It’s been really bad in the past year. Over the summer there were almost daily breakdowns on several of the main lines that commuters use. The state has given I think $5 billion, but only spent the first billion so far. I recently worked on programming for the automation systems in three stations in Brooklyn, which…

And Wiley has said that they were asked to gather data on American voters for Lukoil, the Russian state oil company. They thought it was strange at the time. Makes sense now.

Or just the people who voted for him, can we arrange that? Like the scene in A Clockwork Orange, where they can’t shut their eyes?

It’s not a bad strategy, though. She knows that the subway has been an issue for the governor this year. I live upstate but travel to the city for business almost every week, and I know how bad it is.

I probably won’t vote in the gubernatorial primary, because I honestly don’t care who gets the nomination, as long as we keep a Democrat in the governors mansion. Cuomo won by such a narrow margin in 2014, and this year enthusiasm is on our side, but I would hate to see the vote split or low turnout if people don’t…

Did you go to UR? If so, Meliora! I know what you mean about the tax breaks. Hearing the news about our bid to get the Amazon 2nd HQ (which I didn’t think we were going to), I remember thinking “are we giving the shop away, though?”

I live in Rochester, and it’s a great place, but yeah, the poverty level is bad. I believe our most recent stat for children in the city is 40%. Basically, what you have is a bunch of middle class and even some very wealthy suburbs surrounding a (previously) hollowed out city. But there is hope. I’m about to turn 40,…

Sorry, but respectfully, I have to disagree with you about Warren’s Native American ancestry being an issue. Anyone who is going to vote for her doesn’t care about that.

For real, this thing is going to surpass Game Of Thrones for number of characters and plot threads by the time it’s all over.

Never forget this: they won a small victory, a fluke really, with this election. Everything they are doing right now is going to be undone when we retake government. We own the future, and we are going to win.

I mean, they’re paid to clean up, but that doesn’t mean you should intentionally throw your garbage on the floor. What a prick.

At least Jonah can sometimes be shamed or manipulated into doing the right thing.

I wish I could share your optimism, but we seem to live in a time when a lot of voters do not punish elected officials for fucking them over, but in fact, reward them with re-election.

I think maybe he feels the pressure with all the sexual harassment allegations flying, so he’s trying to claim it was fake now. A core belief of his seems to be if someone attacks you (and he has said this in interviews and such) that you hit back ten times harder. He probably realizes now that his response when the…

I still prefer the experience of buying clothes in store and being able to try them on, but another thing retailers do that drives me mad is to make the checkout experience too difficult by trying to pack in too much promotional/loyalty program nonsense. Like do you want to sign up for our in store credit card or…

That bar is only low for Republicans. If you’re a Democrat, you’re fucked if you ever said anything offensive to more than 3 people, or worst of all, used a private email account.
