Empty land does, in fact, vote...under the racist system that our founding slaveholders pushed for.

If your state isn't green, call your state representative (bonus: the one more likely to give a shit)

Small edit: since elon is an immigrant-hating immigrant, you should probably refer to the kids as "anchor babies"

I don't personally believe in what she believes in, but it's perfectly reasonable for someone who grew up during this country's Reagan era to truly and genuinely believe that serving in the military is a valuable and fulfilling purpose that's greater and more important than the needs of a single family.

Maybe it's clown makeup, but wouldn't it be nice to feel some sense of purpose in your life rather than spending it shit talking people on the internet?

It didn't start with the media, it started with the crypto libertarians and tech bros. I might be misremembering but I think the news media got on their knees in the mid 2010s.

Well, that and the stupid cameo in iron man. But in general when people say media these days they mean the fourth estate not paramount pictures

Every generation is peddled two insane concepts:

When they are young, they are told that they have a weird bizarre vernacular which sounds stupid to everyone else.

Then when they are old, they are told young people have a weird bizarre vernacular which sounds stupid to everyone else.

Then you die.

In contrast, banks all universally moved to single page apps lately, and every one of them sucks. Some suck more (we don't support you having more than one tab open while you are researching stocks) and some suck less (what is the back button for, anyway? Just ignore it). But they all suck.

And yes, users do care about using shitty stacks when they make shitty results.

No at Tesla he abuses his own workers and isn't held accountable by the executive branch.

Here he is abusing our workers and isn't held accountable by the judicial branch.

Totally separate.

He also told the daughter it wasn't named after her for most of her life.

I may be misremembering but I think she wasn't a child anymore by the time he acknowledged that he was her dad.

I mean you're right about banks but your examples make no sense.

Banks generally don't support 2fa, which is bad. Some banks (fidelity) still have character limits on passwords because they stores it in plaintext until recently so you could use it through the telephone system. They could implement a secure tap to pay system on your phones with enhanced security, rather than relying on Google to handle their job. And for credit cards themselves, switch to chip and pin.

"Banks don't have mobile apps"?? "Signatures are secure"?????🤔

What a weird take. He directed first contact. The drum head. The search, and past tense. All great.

You're in the wrong here. Reread the message and the tone of the message and then I'd like a 500 word essay on which particular diction in the post makes you think he's an edgelord rather than someone who genuinely doesn't know who would abbreviate something "r-word" as if it's an equivalent moral choice to call a person by that word as it is to call a person by a word that evokes 400 years of triangle trade suffering (or for a subset of the us population, the analogous c-word which many view as evoking 10,000 years of misogynistic behaviors).

Once that essay is done, I'd like 1000 words on why you think this post makes him anti-trans or, if it's easier, anti-"pronoun" whatever that happens to be a dog whistle for in your head. Feel free to use their comment history for this one if needs be.

The majority of news orgs have had to merge editor jobs and no longer have dedicated copy editors.

People who write for a living are no better, possibly worse, than the average person at the rules of writing.
