Paul Manafort Spends Afternoon Making House Look Presentable For Next FBI Raid

I usually go with some variant of "thinking of you"

You could also just say, "You'll be in my prayers."

How about "If I prayed, you'd definitely be on my list". NAILED IT

(btw seems like my Aunt is doing ok now - only reason for levity)

"You'll be in my human sacrifices - in spirit, of course!"

PB is a world champ at burying that thesis deep.

He's got the fire and the fury
At his command
Well you don't have to worry
If you hold on to Jesus hand
We'll all be safe from Satan
When the thunder rolls
We just gotta help me keep the devil
Way down in the hole

Season 4's version was the best, the darkest. Season 4 was also the best.

It's more of a case that if you look hard enough you will manage to find what you're looking for.

Don't know the backstory there, but the ACLU does take plenty of cases in defense of trans rights.

Of course, they take the KKK ones too.

3>1>4>2>5, with the obligatory caveat that 5 still ****s all over 99% of anything on right now.

I heard he works there as a janitor, anonymously solving pre-calc problems left on the chalk board as class challenges.

"Suzzer liked this."

Really?

How about this, i love you Auntie, pull through.

Or even crazier, say something that you want to say instead of asking 2+2 what line i should give my Aunt who had a heart attack.

so russia is flying spy planes over the white house? man, this never would have happened if someone strong was in office, like obama

They are suing on behalf of Milo being able to buy ads on WMATA, which, ok. But that's a for-profit business, can't they afford their own damn lawyers?

I don't give a **** about what y'all on this forum are doing or why but the question is, why is this trending on Twitter? That's what I'm talking about.

I don't necessarily buy the premise here but let's suppose you're right. Is social justice about doing what's acceptable to those in power? Should it be? And let's not beat around the bush here - tons of liberals (well on the gender inequality front) aren't merely indifferent to ambivalent. They are the power you're fighting against on this very issue.

How does that work? If I'm a construction worker that gets paid $18 an hour, my wife gets paid $12 an hour to take care of some rich brats so their mom could work with men as equals, should my wife ask to get paid less so that it's easier for her rich boss to fight male supremacy at work? Maybe this will pay dividends all the way down. Meanwhile, maybe I should ask to get paid less as well. Why should a construction worker make more than a babysitter, it seems like a product of male privilege given the lack of women in construction. Maybe we should both make $11 an hour - that seems about fair and would go a long way to combat male supremacy.

At some point, you have to address real ****ing problems, not white people problems.

I don't dislike rich people, some of my best friends are rich. I'm more or less in the same socioeconomic class as those I'm claiming don't deserve much sympathy and most people I know are in the same boat. Our capacity is limited and we generally ignore nearly all injustice in the real world. What you choose to care about reveals who you are, not a laundry list of things you claim to care about.

Why exactly are there Russian spy planes stationed in Dayton Ohio?

Remember that time Milo posted ads on buses in Chicago, then called in and complained until they were pulled, got his money back, then put out a big press release to complain about discrimination? Good times.

One important takeaway point from the whole memo story is that as the economy becomes evermore Taylorized and populated by highly specialized experts at the upper echelons, we should expect that more of the elite and wealthy and people with high status jobs lack broad skills and sensibilities. The world has always been filled with creepy pampleteers with retrograde political takes but I think part of the shock here is that we expect middle management at Google to have climbed some mythical meritocracy ladder on some holistic knowledge basis rather than the more likely reality which is something close to the opposite: the corporate ladder is climbed by being singularly focused on very specialized technological and trade skills, which leaves little time for acquiring a broad knowledge base or navigating complex social problems.

tl;dr summary: public should be very very skeptical of techbros having innate wisdom and in fact being a clueless repulsive creep is predictable if not the norm, and we should not grant them much political authority

This is basically just a variant of the Chris Langan theory that I posted 10 years ago now where we discover the smartest human on earth is also, in fact, a repulsive creep:

People do well to remember there is more to humanity than being successful at great companies or being smart and to take care with how we assign political authority. I realize fetishizing techbro culture is probably a minority political position but I'm sure it's out there. This memo shows the dangers, that we can't assume high achievers in the world's biggest tech companies are anyone you really want to associate with or really to be counted on to do much other than code.

Open Skies Treaty flights happen all the time and are previously coordinated well in advance

it helps with international trust to show other nations that we aren't hiding anything on the roofs of our top government buildings
