  • There is a difference between choosing minimalism and being forced into it by lack of options. If these two characters had steady income or a safety net, and chose to live like this, then good for them. But they don't; they are unemployed with a leaky roof and inadequate heat and presumably do not have the means to address those issues. This is an unstable situation to which nobody should aspire.

  • Yeah, no. Let's not romanticize poverty.

  • One started as a cop but got fired after allegedly assaulting a suspect. He fell back on being a prison guard, but didn't last long there, either. Now he has a job with a freight railroad.

    Another was lined up to inherit his dad's business, but instead got into drug dealing and eventually murdered someone. Now he's in prison for life.

  • This is 100% political theater. It'll never get through the House. And it's meaningless anyway:

    • The CIA never needed a declaration of war to fuck around in other Latin American countries. They are already at work in Venezuela.

    • The 2001 Authorization for the Use of Military Force is still active. It gives the president broad authority to unilaterally launch military operations against any group they label as "terrorists." No declaration of war is needed there, either.

  • And it's nothing new. The Young Republicans group at my university were all equally shitty people. The only difference now is that they don't feel the need to be as cautious and guarded.

  • Looking at your post history, you seem really hung up on dating ages. Is there some background here that you want to tell us about?

    1. Own shit.

    2. ????

    3. Profit!

  • In his eyes, the fucking look...

  • Statistics are just numbers. What matters is how they are used. Anyone who has studied stats knows that it's common to craft misleading conclusions from real data.

  • Mr. Arrington, reached by telephone on Thursday, confirmed that he had been pressured to resign. He said that he had been told that he “could no longer be trusted with confidential information.” No other explanation was provided, he said, and he added that he had not received any noticeable pushback after his refusal to provide a sword....Three other people with knowledge of the situation described the conflict over the sword. Two said that Mr. Arrington had also angered officials at the National Archives and Records Administration, which oversees the presidential library system, by sharing information with his staff about changes to longstanding plans for a new education center, which may have contributed to his ouster.

    Sounds like a bullshit reason to fire him.

  • The .com craze was a gold rush to a land with proven reserves. It was clear there was a huge opportunity to get rich. The question was which companies would find the right approach and succeed. Amazon lived, other retailers like Pets.com didn't. Kozmo and Webvan failed but their general business ideas later succeeded at other companies. And so on.

    AI feels more like a gold rush based on rumors and hype. It isn't clear (at least to me) that a market opportunity exists to justify the massive spending going on.

  • Every inch. And they'll like it or else.

  • This fucking note at the end:

    Update: As of September 19, Variety reported that insiders say Jimmy Kimmel’s representatives are in active talks with ABC executives to bring Jimmy Kimmel Live back to late-night television after it was pulled from its timeslot on September 17. While no agreement has been finalized, sources indicate that Kimmel and Disney are working toward a compromise.

    Compromise? There should be no compromise from Kimmel and his crew.

  • I exercise my Fifth Amendment rights.

    shuts the fuck up

  • Teabagging a frosty metal object and getting away without consequences is quite a flex.

  • The scroll of truth theory.
