From this graph, it looks like you're suggesting the 2019 yield curve inversion predicted the 2020 coronavirus recession?

Does this remind anyone else of House of Usher?

Libraries are physical media

Tell me you haven't actually been to a library in the last 15 years without telling me.

Have you not heard of Libby? Of Overdrive? Next thing you're gonna be telling me Libraries aren't a solution because not everyone can use microfiche...

Can libraries not get subscriptions to news services for public access?

Could you explain more- so you want a la carte options, like pay on a per-article basis? And to be clear, you know that free high-quality print media has never been a thing historically, right? Like, you never could access all articles from the entire history of the NYTimes on demand for free, that was never a thing. The paper for that day was locked in a metal box you had to pay to open, and all you got to see was half the front page.

Or, you know, support libraries...

he wasn't trump. That's his whole platform, that's it.

Sorry, but this is one of those hyperbolic, uninformed, useless hot takes the Internet LOVES. You can literally look up his platform online, like so many places.

Here's Politifact tracking 99 of his campaign promises.

You don't know I volunteered in all local and state level elections from 1991 to 2006?

Hmm, no mentions of the DNC here...

You don't know that I manned the phones both times for Bernie a minimum of 15 hours a month?

Hmm, no DNC mentions here..

You SHOULD know that the only influence normal people have in the DNC directly relates to how much they can donate, and hours apparently don't equate to voice.

Hmm, no mention of you actually interacting with the DNC here...

I'm fucking turning half a century this year, you do this shit I paid my time.

So like, you haven't tried to contact your DNC reps?
