This guy is a clown. The new 3 of the “5 pillars” of his EPA administration don’t have anything to do with its mission. Bringing back the auto industry, empowering the energy industry, and being a leader in AI.
Maybe they will once they stop being owned by the same people as the Republicans. They are a joke of an opposition party especially after reading their 20 bullet points on how to be Splenda republicans
Whelp now we know Walgreens will get shittier, exploit workers more, exploit your personal data more, or more likely all of those and more. Time to stop going to Walgreens and wait for the economic zombies to move on
It’s probably because most people that didn’t approve didn’t want to watch it in the first place because there’s nothing useful to hear.
The secret level from toe jam and big earl.
I don’t want to repeat 2016. The media goes hyperbolic over every stupid speech or tweet this man makes. 90% of it doesn’t get done. The 10% that does… Will suck. And I can’t do anything about that at this point, enough of the country voted for him because of inflation that he got into to power because they don’t understand how government and inflation works.
I’m not going to raise my blood pressure over news that is just outrage porn this time. Shit is going to get worse, and I can’t do anything about it as a federal worker other than do my job and wait it out.
Then try to help rebuild the institution I work for after it is hollowed out by the incompetent political appointees made my the incoming admin once the political pendulum swing again in on the axis of low information capricious swing voters in this country.
Eggs will be cheaper to buy with the food stamps that he will cut…
Doesn’t seem like even existing executives in agencies have any fucking backbone. The AFGE union that represents EPA employees is urging members to personally email the EPA Administrator, Michael Regan, to extend the union contract of career service employees to 2030. This would protect some worker rights under a collective bargaining agreement instead of allowing it to open back up for the Trump admin to gut. Career service employees are the ones doing inspections, developing cases, providing assistance to the public, doing research… The stuff that most people expect the EPA to do, even if they aren’t democrats. Despite what the hyperbolic mainstream and social media spaces report, even Republicans want clean air, water, and soil.
Regan has thus far refused even though he has absolutely nothing to lose since he is out by January anyway to be replaced with Lee Zeldin…I guess he thinks not doing anything to help agency employees at EPA will help his career and that’s his priority. Not actually helping the EPA succeed.
I feel like smartphones + internet peaked about 10 years ago and has now steadily become enshittified. I have never used “google assistant” because it takes less time to just type something in to my phone or tap the setup for my alarm.
So yes, definitely feel that way. Consumer tech had less bullshit masking as improvements ten years ago.
More garbage “news” from the Twitter verse to flow back to the echo chamber and reverberate with righteous, impotent, indignation. I’m not gonna take the bait like I did 4 years ago.
A lot of people don’t understand them. Others don’t care, thinking they will deal with the debt later or never.
American basic education in math doesn’t really cover financial math much.

They can force a vote on IVF all of the sudden but not anything else?
There is still a player run league going strong. I’ve played in it for almost ten years. Great group of folks and new teams are often forming especially at lower MMRs.
I’ve voted Democrat my whole life out of the lesser evil thing. I think I’m going to vote third party at this point because things are getting eviler and they are part of the problem.
My question is if I vote Democrat again, will they simply maintain the status quo and do nothing until the next fascist runs on blowing up the system that they are defending that isn’t working for anyone and wins again?
Because so far that’s all that has happened. Oh yeah there was also that guy that won on “hope” and “change” and gave a handout to insurance companies instead of a public option.
After citizens united and before they are all owned by the same elites that crush everyone else. One party just does it under a cross and the other does it under a rainbow flag.
