Funny story…

Kinda miffed they didn’t include a screenshot of the colors, but I’m guessing the readability will be vastly better!

insisting the House stop holding Ukraine aid hostage first

That’s probably how this is gonna end up getting through. The GOP wants aid to Israel, the Dems want aid to Ukraine. I’m putting my money on both things passing in some compromise deal.

I’m still not convinced that the trial’s even going to start tomorrow. Still waiting for some 11th hour hail-mary type play to push this back a few more weeks.

Then direct intervention

Oh boy, US troops on the ground in the middle east. That’ll go well and will definitely calm things down.

Hamas can’t offer up enough hostages for a ceasefire deal. The fuck you want Biden to do!?

Rather than try to take away ballot options that would better represent the interests of the American public, perhaps the Democratic Party should focus on passing legislation that would actually help struggling people such as a universal single payer healthcare program or guaranteed housing.

I love when people act like the Democrats have unilateral control over all 3 branches of Government and just gloss over how the party that controls the Courts dismantles Obamacare at every opportunity, and the same party that controls the House and will refuse to pass bills that even they like because of the chance it might make Biden look good.

Sadly, both major political parties in America are fully beholden to the corporate interests which fund the political system.

Of course, topping it off with a little “both sides”.

The thing they’re doing differently is being owned by a Chinese company. If TikTok was simply a US based social media corp, no one would care.

It’s easy to send a protest vote in March. Let’s see how everyone feels in October.

Kinda crazy how people just show their biases like that.

Technically that wasn’t a sale. CA made a bunch of quizzes with overly broad permission requests and all our friends unknowingly sold us up the river to find out which Star Trek character they were.

And Microsoft keeps enshitifying Windows because they know they can get away with it. So many businesses are backed into a corner and have essential parts of their business that are only compatible with Microsoft’s tech. They can’t switch, they won’t even entertain the idea (much less the time/energy required to test it out). The folks at Microsoft know they’ve won. I won’t be surprised when they make Windows 12’s compatibility even more egregious than 11’s.

Yeah now that everyone’s used to multiple profiles in streaming apps, having a separate kid-friendly version is kinda redundant

So much dysentery…

Parents lose their minds if they can’t contact their child at any moment. Some schools/teachers ban them already but I imagine some PTA meetings about this will be total shitshows.

Israel isn’t hopeless, Bibi just has to go

Eric Cantor but that’s not exactly a 1:1 comparison.

He acknowledged they’re victims. Really don’t understand the point you’re trying to make here.

OP doesn’t want to pay the extra $120 for an OS he’s never gonna use. Yes everyone sells a Linux laptop but there’s a few companies that won’t charge you for Windows on top of that.
