Well, Boeing, you cut your staff and salaries to the bone, used your profits on stock buy backs & to give absurd multi-million dollar bonuses to your C-suite stuffed suits, and killed whistleblowers who try to rat on your inhumane business practices. Do you think you can figure out why you can't attract talent now, Boeing? Do ya?

This a-hole judge should be removed from the bench and fired for this. Or at least forced to undergo the same treatment.

Has this judge even been to court before? If you're not there to sue or be sued(or tried) or to watch someone for a specific reason, then court is boring as hell. Instead of punishing someone who fell asleep, congratulate those who stayed awake - that's far more worthy of notice.

I had a friend tell me a few days ago that they get up an hour and a half before they're supposed to work to relax and read or shower or whatever. I can't even picture that. I get up 30m before work and rush through coffee+oatmeal because if I slow down and think about how I have to work today it'll make me depressed.

It's better to catch me unawares so I don't have time to ruminate before I'm expected to work. Then before I know it I'll be working and too busy to think about how I'd rather be floating on a cloud while beautiful people feed me grapes off the vine.

They are all around here. The US will never get rid of them as we've got a big corporation that keeps lobbying for pennies to keep being made. That company by the way is the company that makes the blanks for pennies. So they'll stick around forever, since the lobbying effort is cheaper then coming up with a new business plan that doesn't involve survival on the governments dime(or penny as it were).

I stopped picking up pennies. It's no longer worth the time or effort to get them.

The colors that appear in the sky during a sunset. Beautiful blues, purples and oranges, slowly dimming until it disappears over the horizon.

Star Wars: Galaxies had a killer open world housing system! I loved it and nothing else I've played has even come close to what SW:G had. Plus, after a bit of patching they included a system where you can create a city that shows up on the map, including shuttle/fast travel points and benefits to locals. Housing wasn't instanced, so you could build nearly anywhere on the map outside of in-game cities and other players cities. It was truly awesome. Sony Online Entertainment screwed it over again and again and again, and now it's gone. I played that game for years.

Never played UO but I heard good things.

Quite incredible, the story of the Bounty and her crew. Reading though the wiki article about it is a real trip. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutiny_on_the_Bounty?wprov=sfla1

I agree. Harris's team is doing an outstanding job with handling his useless drivel.

Yeah, that one, lol. Ain't gonna happen, but if it did, that's how I imagine it'll go.

He did agree, but he's placed the Fox interview before the NBC or ABC debates. So, the plan is to do the Fox debate to roaring, paid crowds where he gets softball questions and Harris gets asked transparently sealioned questions. It'll look something like this:

Interviewer: "Mr. President Trump, sir, how did you come by all of your elite skills playing golf? How do you maintain your unearthly, jaw dropping masculinity in the face of relentless feminization by the radical left?"

T: rambling, incoherent 3 minute long speech about Harris' low IQ and how immigrants want to abort your 3 month old babies

Interviewer: "Kamala(pronounced incorrectly), why are you going to take everyone's guns away so that they can be attacked in their own homes by the gay Mafia and immigrant caravans? Why are you going to force American man to get castrated, then put their privates into a blender, and use their extracted testosterone to turn all the girl kids into boys against their will?"

There. No need to watch Fox debate now, I just summarized it for you.

I knew this intellectually, but in my heart of hearts was hoping for Kelly anyway because having a former astronaut for a president would be freaking awesome. That being said I'm not even a little upset with Walz and I'm 100% here for Walz and Harris both.

They ain't big enough to scramble unless you're a gnat.
