They know. It’s a different article and also a different situation. The article doesn’t apply

Can we agree those both suck?

Netherlands. It’s awful. The American “copy your resume in tiny fragments into our web form” has arrived here and I hate it

Wait, but Steam doesn’t have Android games, right?

If this means I can play my Steam games on my phone… Yay! 🎉

The only one who can stop a bad toddler with a gun, is a good toddler with a gun

~Republicans, probably

I’m not surprised they were German, to be honest. Children learn from a rather young age what the Nazis did and that it should never be allowed to happen again. Development of an ethical consciousness is an important part of upbringing. It’s definitely not “the enemy must be destroyed no matter what” like in the US.

(Too bad they can’t see the beam in their own eyes when it comes to support for apartheid Israel 🤷‍♂️)

Rule of law is quickly being destroyed in the US. It’s a full-on coup of lawmaking ability

Congress blocks laws. Agencies can’t make laws. Judges can make laws. President is above the law.

I hope you’ll enjoy this politicology podcast as much as I do. I’ve been a Rob Ford fan for years. Here you go:

Have you ever heard about the Exota affair in the Netherlands? In 1969, journalists uncovered the glass bottles of Exota soda were explosion hazards and their scathing TV episode about it drove the company to bankruptcy. It became a whole ordeal after the journalists and broadcaster were sued.

The bottle cap folds out of the way. If you have it “in your face”, it sounds like a skill issue

A strawman

Why is Chase spending money to piss off customers on Xitter?

The problem is the tone of the message. Chase isn’t giving solid financial advice, here. They’re creating a strawman of “bad with money”

People know that. They’re broke, not dumb

They’re covering for systemic political issues by blaming it on the individual, essentially covering for poverty wages and other problems related to income distribution. I don’t know why they do this, either. But that’s why this rubs many people the wrong way.

People don’t get into trouble because of avocado toast but depressed wages, soaring house prices, medical costs, etcetera. What the hell are people supposed to do if the minimum spending to survive is already too much for their meager income?

Stalling tactic from day 1. “We are doing humanitarian aid, look!” 🙄

At the time, it wasn’t this widely regarded as a power grab by conservative politicians in the Supreme Court. Not saying it wasn’t, but it was not seen as such. It was nowhere near as brazen as what we’re seeing today. Confidence was still quite high at the time or at least it returned quickly.

Absolutely. I never cared for his political stuff. Get that shit out of here. Just geek out on historic stuff, but please no more misogynist social darwinist garbage…
