I pay for Netflix. I pay for Comcast. I pay Netflix to pay Comcast to allow me to have what I pay Netflix for in the first place.

I absolutely support her going to jail for Trump.
Musk isn’t hurt by the amount of money he’s fined, but it annoys him terribly that he can’t control the situation and that his usual tools for getting his way are useless. It is a pebble in his boot that he can’t bluster, cajole, or bribe his way out of the problem like usual.
Thankfully impossible. Musk is foreign-born and therefore ineligible unless the constitution is amended and that bar is too high even though the GOP controls most state governments (they need 2/3rds). The GOP played with this idea back when The Governator was polling very well but even then it never passed the trial balloon phase.
As I understand it, here in Florida you can sell plasma and you can donate blood or platelets. Blood donation places are not allowed to pay you for donating, but they are allowed to give you gifts like a gift card or t-shirt. I donate frequently at OneBlood (I literally hit 20 gallons this past Saturday!) and them being hacked is sickening.
Depending on the opponent that’s all I need to hear.
Maybe he can join Kristi Noem and get banned from native lands… then get caught flaunting the ban. That shit would be hilarious.
Disinformation, whataboutism, and since you persist with this Daou person I can call this guilt by association. I should warn you that the Free space is in play and I am one box short of Fallacy BINGO.
Disinformation and whataboutism? That’s quite a day for you, sir.
A deliberate misstatement. The talking point is “Republicans are destroying democracy.” Which they certainly are.
It will always trip me out how Mitt Romney went from being the GOP nominee for president in 2012 to a reviled RINO in less than a decade by not moving. He’s the same guy with the same positions and the party shot far to the right.
Ah, thanks. I missed that. I guess I need to update my “all these brands are really all owned by XYZ” chart again.
I don’t usually want to open LinkedIn at all. I wonder if they paid MS for the shortcut?
A similar tactic was used in the movie Patriot Games.

Well stated. I think a lot of corporate action nowadays, especially with any industry connected to the internet, is based on similar logic. “How can we squeeze maximum (profit/market share/growth)? If we go too far, we can always undo it thanks to the internet.”
I wonder how long it’ll be until BMW reintroduces the Heated Seats subscription, or GM changes their legalese to allow them to sell your driving data to 3rd party companies? Those corporate moneygrabs were rolled back due to consumer outrage recently but they’ll probably be back in some form in the next five years.
Some days I think the news organizations seek out the shittiest opinions and air them in hopes of getting clicks.
I’d also point out this is a problem of their own making; we’re burnt out with the perpetual election cycle and incessant lack of adult behavior from Congress. I’m extremely dedicated to voting but I’m also fucking tired of it.
Too much naivete to address in this post but I’d certainly omit the word “wise”. Not liking the options is one thing, refusing to vote for the better one when the other is credibly accused of espionage is fucking dumb. Young people can vote or not vote but if someone lectures me about not taking part in a broken system they’re going to get an earful about how they let assholes ruin their lives through inaction. No one’s going to get what they want by doing nothing and you will never get a candidate that fits you 100% (and if you do, you’re in a cult).
Their own words should be up on billboards paid for by the opposition.
Who fucking cares.
