We shouldn't be forced to replace tech this frequently. If you are comfortable shelling out money for the next big thing that is on you. The rest of us want functioning products that last.

Even if they do get rid of him, won't he be a vulnerability for years to come? Because of the position he was given, certainly not earned, he is privy to not only the details of current military strikes but also secret goals for future military projects. Right? I assume most people who have these jobs have a modicum of self-respect and patriotic duty. But couldn't he just leak that important info to anyone even after he is fired?

That makes sense. Especially considering that they don't expect another fair election anyway.

Ahh, yes. The classic Elon Musk. Make outlandish promises you were never going to be able to keep. Then, descretely move the goal posts. If anyone calls you out, blame everyone else.

"Can't meet you guys at the bar for drinks we are about to bomb Yemen. Don't wait up, my boy JD and I are going to get blackout drunk and try to drift a motorcade vehicle around the lincoln memorial." Or something to that effect.

I know that this is a big problem for many reasons. But won't this hurt Republicans more than Democrats?

Speaking specifically about married women who have taken there husbands name. I remember a lot of focus in the recent elections was on suburban women in swing states like Pennsylvania. I know these assholes don't give a shit about the opinions of women, but plenty of them turned out and cast their vote for Trump.

This site is fantastic. As I recall, you can do a whole string of destinations and it finds every possible route. Great for getting around Europe when I was on a tight budget.

Anyone can be an astronaut if they suck the right old guys dick. Groundbreaking levels of participation award handouts.

Astronaut - deriving from ancient Greek astron (star) nautes (sailor). They were useless cargo. No one in history has been called a sailor for taking an 11 minute cruise on a ship that they took no part in sailing.

Why Australia? Good place to work, or just a better place in general?

Not OP, but some of the older guys I work around are excited for the rollback of safety standards. I don't get it. We are the ones on the ground next to the heavy equipment, interacting with caustic chemicals and high voltage.

We are exactly the people who get hurt when management relaxes safety standards because there is no one to enforce the rules. I'm so tired of being the 'soft' millenial that cares about safety. Fuck me for wanting to live a long and happy life I guess.

There will be nothing good and beautiful in this world when he is done with it.

From a man who was notorious for not paying his contractors on NYC properties?

 

Macy's announced to employees it is closing its Philadelphia store in Center City, which has been open since 2006. The location is expected to close sometime in March, one of 65 Macy's locations that will be closing as part of a cost-savings initiative. The planned closure leaves the future of the historically important Wanamaker organ and beloved traditions like the holiday light show and Dickens Village in doubt. The interior of the Wanamaker Building holds rare protections from the Philadelphia Historical Commission.
