Look if you disagree that’s fine but I personally am sick of the Democratic party hosting these kind of scumbags in its ranks and then pretending they’re not exactly like Trump.

I’m glad it’s the headline.

This is my surprised face:

When will democrats like Gillibrand understand that this kind of shit makes them look like they don’t stand for anything. She says we are a country of second chances but for wealthy men like Cuomo its an endless string of “second chances” which kind of undermines the word “second” since its more like his fiftieth chance. She ran Al Franken out of the Senate for less.

But I guess I shouldn’t expect much else from someone who has a history of sucking up to the NRA and is a crypto shill.

Some of the women likened Cuomo’s well-known bullying and taste for revenge to that of the current president. Karen Hinton, who accused Cuomo in 2021 of making unwanted sexual advances toward her in 2000, described the former governor as “the Democratic Party’s own Donald Trump.”

“I think Cuomo, in another timeline, is probably super jealous of Trump,” Liss said. “They use the same playbook.”

They’re literally just quoting some of the women who have been sexually harassed by Cuomo.

Yes, that is the goal.

That’s why they’re attracted to the job to begin with.

The food assistance one is especially dumb because it is already set up so that if you work they reduce the amount of food assistance you get, based on your income. So forcing work requirements in tandem with the existing rules will do nothing but reduce access.

Of course, that’s the point. They only “save” money if they are reducing the amount spent, and work requirements will absolutely reduce the amount going out.

Although I would argue the bureaucratic overhead required to check on employment status will offset most of the savings.

I agree but there’s actually a lot of work that has been done on training horses with compassion instead of the old ways of “breaking” them.

As long as the horses are treated right, have ample space to roam, healthy food, and aren’t exploited for work of some kind, I think it’s probably as okay as having any other kind of pet. Just sadly financially out of reach for most considering the land, food, and time requirements.

Obviously this place in particular is still raising them for racing, which is quite sad.

I am Jack’s complete lack of surprise.

Finally got mine fixed, something in .config was breaking the desktop. Narrowed it down to a few items and just didn’t restore those.

Yeah the news needs to stop reporting this as though it’s something happening on accident.

I keep dual booting just because sometimes Linux does crap itself.

I have been troubleshooting what’s going on with my kde desktop (both x11 and wayland affected) for about 8 hours no with no success. I have a zoom appointment this afternoon so I am glad I can still boot into (retch) Windows.

Rey being too good at everything from the get-go with absolutely no character development to support that

I don’t know where you seem to feel like this was just a lukewarm response to that. Male fans were absolutely unhinged with hatred over this point.

The Wikipedia entry for Force Awakens literally has a portion dedicated to fan backlash, which also included backlash against Boyega with bullshit crybaby screams of “white genocide” and “cultural marxism.”

It’s weird, Breen is so… forgettable to me.

To be fair, they both look like high school principals.

To be fair to Star Wars, the suits at Disney changed tactics because of negative fan reaction to the first sequel so we don’t actually know how good they could have turned out if we had just let the creatives in charge finish their vision that started in 7. 8 and 9 were weird specifically because Disney suits were afraid of pissing off fans and changed direction twice instead of committing to the original vision. Fans complained about the prequels as well but Lucas committed to his vision and now so many years later the prequels are viewed far more favorably.

Is the G-man the main villain? I thought it was always a little unclear. In HL it’s the Nialinth snd and HL2 it’s the Combine. G-man seems like he’s not clear on what side he is on, and it always felt that vagueness was intentional.

I’m not convinced this wasn’t just her lying and hoping that Senators are as stupid as she is and hoping to get away with the lie. Because after being corrected, she suddenly understood how habeas corpus works and was referencing the potential for suspension of it as outlined in the constitution.

So much of this horseshit just runs on these people hoping to say whatever the fuck they please with the expectation of no pushback or questioning of what they said.

Violence almost always makes people double down about whatever shitty thing they were already doing because now they can mark themselves as a victim even if what they were doing was horrendous. Because society views physical abuse as somehow worse than mental, sexual, spiritual, and financial abuse.

Anyway yeah kick the shit out of this fat loser fuck. I don’t give a damn if he’s old.

I want investigations into Oprah but not because I’m a snowflake racist who can’t handle criticism.

It’s easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.
