Oh good, so Google has stopped all political donations and canceled all government contracts so they can stay out politics?

No? Ok fuck you.

He fired at a group of dudes in civilian clothes driving regular vehicles telling him they were cops. Guess what more than tripled from 2019 to 2021 and continues? Car jackings and armed car jackings.

They allege this was for a seatbelt. Weapons drawn for a simple traffic stop?

Plainclothes officers, especially, should not be approaching people with a weapon drawn.

I feel like these games don't reflect the number of people being hired for them. I'm not sure it should linearly scale (probably not), but they seem like they scale down rather than up with an increase in staff.

This is what happens when game studios are being run by people that only view video games as a means to generate money. They do not understand the industry or craft involved and will blindly apply whatever the newest MBA management strategy is the new hotness, throw money and headcount at projects. And cannot understand that more is usually not better when it comes to video game development.

This just in: making the world a better place for a few at the expense of the many does not inspire people to want to bring new people into the world.

I was a flight attendant with TWA, so take this as what it is: advice from 20+ years ago.

If all the overhead bins are full they will gate check your bag; tag it, send it down the external stairs of the jetway, and it will go in the belly with the other checked luggage.

You forgot groceries, mandatory insurance, and utilities...

It's amazing republicans even show their true face in public with all the persecution they endure.

They should hide themselves better or people might identify them as conservatives.

It really whips the llama's ass.

barred him from doing business in New York for three years

Where is Truth Social incorporated? If Truth Social has an IPO would sale of stocks be considered "doing business" in NY? Genuinely asking if stock IPOs count as "doing business".

Edit: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truth_Social Founded by Trump who would also be a beneficiary of any business transactions for Truth Social(?)

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_Media_%26_Technology_Group

Owned by TMTG which lists two key people: Donald Trump (Chairman) Devin Nunes (CEO)

Does being chairman count?

"Doing business in NYC" sounds so nebulous. I want it to be a golden shower over all his business dealings. For me to enjoy seeing this scumbag lose all of his ill gotten gains so publicly is not my proudest moment as a human being but I am popping popcorn and getting snacks ready to kick back and relish the schadenfreude.

Sarah Connor Chronicles. Perfect run time, great pacing, nice gift wrapped complete series ending which still left an opening for further shows in the same timeline.

Didn't leave them much choice.

Wrong. The murderer chose to shoot and kill the kid. That was the choice they made.

They could have...just run away to a safe distance. But they chose to shoot and murder the kid.

Could have tried to disarm them. Too risky? Run away.

Stop making excuses for poorly trained thugs with guns killing unarmed citizens.

Many of us are trapped by the choices of our Fox-brainwashed elderly population.

The absolutely morally bankrupt and spoiled boomers dominating the voting population with blind allegiance and rising evengelicism over the last 50 years got us here. Basically, the most self centered and selfish generation in modern American history is hell bent on fucking every generation that follows them.

A lot of us have chosen and chosen and chosen otherwise in futility. Even when we've had the opportunity for progress it was tempered by trying to appease the other party; in the name of bipartisanship we get a neutered health care plan that still has grift built directly into the system.

Micros cash register software. Endless lines of corrupted database entries.

In Humboldt Park which has had car jackings more than triple for the last few years.

  1. What was your first job and how old were you?
  2. Who paid for your education and how?
  3. What was your lowest salary?

it looks like they boxed him in with their vehicle.

Yes.

Five officers from a tactical unit who were in an unmarked police vehicle surrounded an SUV last month driven by Dexter Reed, allegedly for failing to wear a seatbelt.

$1,200 US entry price might seem a bit steep for a "fancy game controller/keyboard" to the able-bodied, but the QOL improvements for disabled people easily eclipse that.

issue is less about humans and more about americans, specifically

Yes

You are not alone.

Digital dadaism?

Salacious slandering of stonefruit, surely.

We could study the psychological effects of watching one's limbs being fed into a wood chipper.

Y'know...for science.

As a resident I would like to refute this claim.

I can't. But I would like to.

And why?

Because we said so.

Wow, it is refreshing to see someone recognize being mistaken, accept the correction, and be thankful to have learned something, so thank you as well.

Ah yes the generation that wasn't even worth naming so they gave us a placeholder.

Growing up Gen X in the US was watching a slow motion train wreck where you're able to see the causes, current wreck, and even look down the road to the future repercussions but everything you do or try to make things better for everyone is ignored, co-opted, or sidelined by the monolithic boomer voting bloc. And all the while you're being gaslit by the beneficiaries of the current shitshow selling you an American Dream that never was true and hasn't been remotely attainable since you joined the workforce.

Be better

Alliterate all auspicious actions at all available activities always and ad astra, amigo.

just slow erosion of secular human rights in favor of christian fascism.
