We could probably take the ballroom apart very carefully and use the materials to rebuild the east wing but, once started, we’d discover that trumpy cut corners like hell to line his pockets even more and the ballroom is just a pig shell of nothingness, but with golden lipstick.
It kind of makes sense. Too much of that shit can kill you.
I guess, yes? When social engineering is stronger than free will and common sense then I’d call that gullible/stupid.
I’m hoping I can last one more month with my Win10 laptop. After that I’ll have the time to see if UNIX is the way to go. My laptop is almost 10 years old so I’m not sure if that would be like putting lipstick on an old pig or not.
I was judging the union, not the working stiffs. Still rude though I guess.
Once addicted, there is nothing more pleasant than coming outside into the sunshine and lighting up that cigarette you’ve been craving for a few hours.
Like union guys on an automobile assembly line but holy crap do they ever get paid well!
If you add an “e” after the “G” then all of a sudden it’s Science!
I’m generalizing. There are more than two “very specific demographics”. More than two. Let’s call them proletariats for lack of a better word. The pursuit of knowledge for it’s own sake is what I was referring to. The “going to college and getting a good job” days are mostly over, unless you have an “in”.
I believe that as well but there is no solid proof as far as I know.
Only when you are talking about earning money. The smartest people out there are the ditch diggers and factory folk.
I invented (developed) an mp3 file splitter. I did this in order to allow more tracks for the digital books my wife listens to. Each track was over an hour long and she’d sometimes have to listen to over 45 minutes just to end up to where she fell asleep the night before. Now each track is 10 minutes long (or 15, or 5; it’s variable, so your choice). So I make tiny sized mp3 files out of large sized mp3 files.
America is, and has been, steeped in violence for so long that I always get a kick out of it when they get all “fainty” and “weak in the knees” when you type about violence. Hell, they wouldn’t even show us Osama Bin Laden’s body because they thought it would collectively “upset” us yet there are network serial killer crime dramas on TV every day of the week. Now that’s entertainment! What an interesting and dissonant time to be alive.
I see him more as a south african with pretensions of ideologically becoming an american, regardless of his papers.
It seems that out in the real world and here in the digital world we have been allowed/engineered to lose our civility and respect. Reminds me of the rock orchestra DEVO.
People will just stop watching after a while. It’s all “the sky is falling” (it’s not) or “Wolf” (there is no wolf) and not much else. Anything good or interesting will eventually bubble over to other platforms or not be seen at all.
Goddamned inflation. It used to be just 2 cents worth!
I think that a shiny golden calf will always trick the good into becoming the bad. Trump splashing that gilded gold shit everywhere made him quite successful. /s
Genius!
