Snyder moving to Canada is like finding a dead canary in the cole mine… Crap.

I’d enjoy seeing them in a more Yubaba style. Give em the gross details.

The right time to go back in is whenever this admin is done, there is no “low” when the floor keeps falling out.

They’re still peddling that other countries pay tariffs, which becomes “US revenue”, and Americans will get a big tax break because importers pay our taxes now.

Yep.

I assure you you’re not naive. They didnt do background checks or security onboarding for the cabinet “because it would take too long”.

I’ll stress that’s just to get in the door. Usually if you’re going to the doctor they’ll want to run xrays, CT scans, MRIs, blood tests, whatever diagnostics and it starts escalating fast.

But this is stuff people can plan for. Emergency visits are much worse in my experience, suffering from appendicitis would have put us $40k in the hole overnight without insurance.

A bad cold or flu you probably wouldn’t go to a doctor, just an urgent care clinic for some antibiotics or whatever. Probably run $100-$150 + cost of meds (hopefully generic).

If urgent care can’t help, an out of pocket visit to primary care provider will be closer to $300 just to step in the door. Hospitals will put you on a payment plan if you can’t front it.

Monsanto gets so much worse than polluting. They tried (succeeded? Not sure) in hooking farmers to only buying their seeds through genetic modification to grow anything. I remember huge protests, then we all sort of moved on.

Sinclair group in the US, bought up basically every local news station and began inserting propaganda into scripts as stories. Highly insidious because the older population generally trusted their local news anchors more than the national outlets.

GEO group, one of the largest private prison corporations that also manages ice detention facilities and many mental institutions, not sure I need to say much more.

I suppose it depends what I sent them to prompt the reply? “Dinner at 6?” followed by 👍 is fine. “My grandpop is dying, he may not make it through the week” -> 👍 would send me right off.

You can pass that my way if you’re not going to eat it, easily my favorite thanksgiving side dish.

Shitpost? This is kind of terrifying tbh

Oh, right, yes lol. And more notices hung at the empty shelves too.

Sue acme for damages, and kmart posts notices near the service counter to inform other buyers of the danger. I worked at kmart.

Raiden 5, or similar vertical shooter. Maybe pinball would be cool too.

Lawyers have been in contact with him and have confirmed he’s held in Louisiana, 1000 miles from home. But his lawyers are also complaining the distance is making it impossible to defend him, as they are unable to have unmonitored conversations.

If this were normal times, I’d say Khalil should start talking with an accountant to make sure he can retire on the fat payout coming his way, but we’ll see how much rule of law matters as this evolves.

What are they even holding him on right now? Why is he still in custody? The administration already said they don’t have charges to bring, and he’s on a green card. This seems open and shut?
