They say once you go Grinch you’ll never go back.

One time my roommate gave me a welding starter set cuz he wanted to learn how to weld LOL.

I don’t think our method of internal government would matter as much to the world as the foreign policies of the individual leader. For reference on that see 2016-2020.

As we scroll through the endless inbox of our news feeds, there’s a tendency not to want to spend a lot of time on most items, because there’s an endless stream of them. So we tend to process each thing quickly, react instantly, and move on to the next one. Training yourself to slow down the reaction part and focus on just observing the information first, can help not build up an ever-growing mountain of depression and cynicism.

So you really think we’re better off with Bonespurs? Cuz realistically he was the only other viable choice, and reality trumps moral purity pedestals.

Probably not by the Useful Idiot, but certainly by his puppeteers.

You are a god! If anybody asks if you’re a god and you say Yes and need a backup, I got you!

Ever try Mint? I’m thinking of it as I finally exit Windows.

Or we can go directly to the bottom frame like we’re gonna do - but go ahead and keep rationalizing why your moral pedestal was too lofty to vote for Kamala.

In other words, “B-but…”

Meanwhile, Trump takes office <again> in 2 months. Keep polishing that halo tho!

Wow. When I started doing theatre in 1983 smoking was becoming evil. Restaurants were required to have nonsmoking sections. The drama instructor quit and was a militant anti-smoker.

I believed a kid who told me that every 4th of July, former US presidents who were still alive - which I somehow imagined was a large group - stood in a circle around the statue of liberty and held hands singing, “He’s got the whole world in his hands.”

The truth here that many people won’t get is that you can start your life anytime you want. Waiting for a good menu option to click on doesn’t work. In my early 20s I was an introverted, anxiety-ridden computer geek. Then I took a community college acting class and discovered my passion for theatre - did acting, stage design, lighting, directing… it created almost an instant social life, tons of friends and looking forward to every day. My job became just a necessary detail, my real life was after work.

Anyway I encourage everyone to figure out how to get their life started. Doesn’t matter what the economy is like or your personal history or circumstances - it’s not you - nobody’s life has ever cared if they lived it or not.

First part is what I was thinking - have the sensitive data on a server for the laptop to access. Of course an unscrupulous user can always save any data they want. But it’s totally normal for companies to give temp employees access to their internal data. Their standard method of protection is to make the person sign an NDA. The threat of expensive legal action deters most people from violating it.

No need to sound like a political science textbook. Birth control means you don’t have to get pegnorate!
