  1. Since everything in politics is about optics, I think there's a way you can bring in the military to end the blockade without looking like a "tyrant" like the conservatives so desperately want. 1. Affirm the right of "people" to protest peacefully. Anyone who was just "there" is free to go/free to continue protesting/whatever. Anyone who engaged in any acts of violence or otherwise serious lawbreaking will be arrested. 2. Affirm that "property" does not have such rights. Any trucks still in whatever downtown area by whatever timeline will be seized by the military. Disable them with boots, or whatever means and that anyone tampering with them or impeding the work of the military will be arrested. Then tow them.
  2. Yeah, you certainly don't need a class participation activity to show what a fucking Nazi salute is. Profoundly stupid move by the teacher.
  3. The point isn't giving him a specific direction. Just that it's technically his responsibility to resolve and if he can't, then Trudeau and the federal government should step in.
  4. This is the left's problem of being completely inept at controlling the narrative. Trudeau should have been constantly harping on Ford to do something while constantly reminding people that if Ford does nothing he'll step in.
  5. I don't recall the recent Legend of Mana remaster's backgrounds looking all that hot either. Though I'm sure it'll look fine on a smaller screen like a Switch, or say a Steam Deck. It will be interesting because I think a FFIX and maybe FFTactics remake/remaster was also rumored in nVidia leak that Chrono Cross was first mentioned in. So they got two more shots at PSX-era remasters.
  6. Lefty counter protesting is always a wet fact. Like, why not do something productive like squirt a bunch of expanding foam insulation down the exhaust pipes of these trucks?
  7. Ben and/or Jerry assured us that diplomacy was the right course of action to defuse this situation. Could the ice cream people have been wrong?
  8. Though there's some downstate judge trying to fuck things up, Pritzker tying mask mandates to hospitalization numbers was the smartest thing. Granted, I'm sure once you got out of the Chicagoland area people probably didn't bother with masks anyway.
  9. If the commissioner BLS is the one giving undercounting numbers who is responsible for the revised numbers?
  10. Maybe its different in other countries, but Taylor Swift, The Beatles, and Prince are all on Spotify. Only thing I can see was there were a few years that Taylor Swift had her music removed, but seems to have gotten added back as of 2017.
  11. I had bought Standard on Steam, so I guess the upgrade is a good thing? Nothing really that spectacular in Deluxe from what I saw.
  12. This is my take on things. I do not spend and significant amount of time in a given place or around people. Just in and out.
  13. Put Harris on the SC and let Duckworth take her rightful place as VP.
  14. I hated the kind of "group social" events at work. We'd have those pizza or catering for certain events like work anniversaries or some holidays and I always hated it. I get along with my coworkers, but I absolutely get that anti-social stuff you talk about. I'm good in groups of 2-4, and I have no problems being in large crowds. But groups like 15-25 people I hate. People just naturally coalesce into little groups of smalltalk that I hate to engage with. I hate it and just want to go back to my desk and work. Probably been the best part of this permanent WFH stuff.
  15. MAGAts: "It was just a draft, he didn't go through with it so what's the big deal?"
  16. Committee needs to put him under a spotlight and make him sweat. Gross black sweat.
  17. This one seems a little more serious than the slap on the wrist charges. Oath Keepers Leader Stewart Rhodes Arrested in Jan. 6 Investigation - The New York Times WWW.NYTIMES.COM The F.B.I. arrested Stewart Rhodes, the founder of the far-right militia, in a major step forward in the investigation into the attack on the Capitol by supporters of Donald Trump.
