i'd like to think most of us saw all of the pride/dei public promotion as virtue signaling (and being honest i was **not **one of those people). but now i hope all of those corporations get all the backlash. not because they were pulling back on all of that but because they were using the very public symbolism as a marketing opportunity and nothing else. it gives the impression that they never had implemented any of those practices or believed in people being who they are in the first place and that's worse. i would not shop at those places just for these places using very public movements as an "US TOO!" crass commercial opportunity. end stage capitalism in practice, and now watch as these same corporations cry poverty and some sort of activist interference because the free market is reacting to their actions.

good.

more than half of the electeds need to go from all sorts of issues from stabbing biden in the back to push him out to voting to censure rep al green to voting for all of trump's cabinet picks. the party is rotten and necrotic at the head and it's dragging the entire country down.

how do we know elon is just an idiot with a lot of money and an inverse amount of sense?

he wants to open dealerships in wisconsin in this political climate he created himself and expects people to buy his substandard cars.

sedans no, and it's a goddamned shame because fuel efficient sedans still have a place. manuf won't make them because trucks (and not even single cab small trucks) and suvs make more money.

i'm glad that there is an(other) program for audible. i like this one better. it automatically converts to a file format i prefer and downloads my books immediately, which is convenient for preorders. besides that, i personally would like to not use the audible app for playback; this is just a personal preference though. i have an audiobook app that works just as well. if anything this would just be me eliminating an app from my devices than anything else.

he's done a masterful job of framing issues that the (very) conservative commonwealth can accept without outright rejecting.

and believe it or not, he wasn't my first choice to be gov in 2019. I thought he was too centrist.

even though I do not trust self driving cars at this point in time, i would much rather trust literally every other manufacturer's version of self driving tech except tesler.

when the executive branch ignores the judicial branch this is the inevitable outcome.

it no longer matters if the executive branch can just ignore the judiciary. the only question is what mechanism does the judiciary have to enforce it's order since the federal marshals are all part of the executive branch?
