@RepJayapal What part of “I don’t care” do you not understand?

Enrique is a TPS holder who has been legally living and working in the United States for over 13 years. If his TPS is terminated, he could be deported to unsafe conditions immediately — a limbo that millions are living with under Trump.

@PaulADW @kvnbishop @markjohnnutter @DoneBeingAfraid @pmarca The iPhone automatically replaces two dashes with an em dash—like so. Microsoft Word’s autocorrect does the same thing by default. It’s not new; you’re just noticing it now because it was brought to your attention.

@kvnbishop @markjohnnutter @DoneBeingAfraid @pmarca Never seen it used in Europe outside of AI, we would use the normal - for that

It’s becoming clearer how we’re going to tell that something wasn’t written by AI.

Let’s talk about how unemployment really works - from a generational perspective because it is generational Friday. The official unemployment rate only counts people who looked for work in the last four weeks. Read that again. Google, Grok, and look it up because it is true. These record low unemployment rates? Defined by politicians to make everything look peachy- since 1940. This is how 105 million working age Americans are out of the workforce while wages are tanked, and politicians lie to us about the economy. If you get discouraged, stop looking, and drop out, you vanish from the count entirely. You are no longer “unemployed” in the government numbers, even though you still have no job. This is not common knowledge, they don't teach this in school and the media is too stupid to do much more than read off their prompters. This has played out the same way for every generation before us. In the 1970s and early 1980s, Boomers watched their parents live through stagflation. When the economy finally started to improve, the unemployment rate stayed high for a long time because millions of sidelined workers came back off the sidelines and started looking again. The same thing happened after the early 1990s recession and again after the dot-com bust in 2001. Gen X saw their parents and older siblings get pushed out, stop looking, and disappear from the statistics. But something is different this time. Today we have record numbers of illegal immigrants and visa workers in the workforce. They have taken millions of jobs that used to go to native-born Americans. That displacement has pushed tens of millions of our own people out of the labor force completely. Meanwhile, the money from lobbyists like Chamber of Commerce- foreign nations, the WEF and others recycle our own taxes to pay our politicians more than every before to betray us. I know you feel your elected hero wears a cape and would throw themselves in front of a bullet for you, but nope they won't. The politicians people reportedly LOVE the MOST are actually the worst when it comes to their libertarian philosophies of letting the entire world compete for your job. Again understand - People stopped looking because the jobs were no longer there for them. Those people are not counted in the official unemployment rate. What is remarkable is how closely it tracks 1:1 with foreign labor taking jobs. Foreigner takes a job and an American checks out. Employer pays the chamber of commerce and employee sends a chunk of their pay back to the country they came from. When we finally deport illegals and block visa labor, the official unemployment number may actually go up for a while. Why? Because the Americans who were pushed aside will start looking for work again. The labor force grows. It looks bad on paper at first, even as real opportunity returns. As weird as it sounds - historically the unemployment rate will actually RISE when the folks start coming back out of the shadows. This scale of foreign-born replacement in the workforce has never happened to any previous generation. The biggest reason is because the majority of our politicians on both sides of the aisle have come out for foreign labor and against American labor. This is why the safest thing we can do is primary every single one of them. Our parents and grandparents did not have to compete with millions of illegal and temporary visa workers for the same jobs while being told the economy was “hot.” Understand this: Once an employer starts hiring illegals or visa workers, they have made a deliberate decision to stop hiring Americans as much as they can get away with. The numbers do not tell the full story. They hide the millions of Americans who were quietly removed from the game. Reply with whether you or someone in your family dropped out of the labor force during the tough years and later tried to come back.

@scorpioblxck @_jokeocracy @WrappedInThFlag 😒

@HughdeCroft @_jokeocracy @WrappedInThFlag Found one.

this idea that seems to be spreading that since one guy was getting paid therefore the whole Charlottesville rally was fake is an absolutely retarded belief. you should be ashamed for lacking the common sense to repeat such a stupid thing. if you're saying this, you're retarded

@scorpioblxck @_jokeocracy @WrappedInThFlag Actually, the world is full of retards who can’t parse out complicated facts.

@_jokeocracy @WrappedInThFlag The right is full of retards who can’t parse out complicated facts?

@CSandbatch She knows.

To be clear, I am not suicidal, and if i disappear inside a reasonable envelope after making this post, please make sure Snake & Jakes Christmas Lounge gets all the proceeds from my poetical endeavours & tell my mom I actually do love her.

I'll alleviate some of the crypticness though. None of this spooky stuff is stuff you haven't heard before. What gets spooky is I have the *actual linkages* underlying this narrative. Essentially, a private investigator, before *refusing* to dig any further, presented evidence of a multi-national (you can guess the ones) NGO/agency push to create credible evidence of a "White Nationalist" threat in the United States in order to launch Joe Biden's presidential bid. See, the reason Biden's backers wanted him back in the ring is because they were balls deep in Ukrainian energy investments, and wanted to make sure the United States would enter any Russian/Ukrainian conflagration to protect their investments. This of course does not play well with the 300k or so voters in Milwaukee and Western Pennsylvania who decide national elections, so the looming spectre of "White Nationalism" was the ticket. The idea was to create a much larger violent incident, but at least two of the interlacing layers of the plan red-lighted on the day of the event, and they were only able to produce one (dubious) murder. This of course, was enough, and Biden announced the next day. But if you have ever wondered why the UTR coverage seemed too wall-to-wall with respect to what actually happened, it is because the media apparatus was spun up with the understanding that a *much larger story* was going to be underpinning the hysteria.

@KennyCarmody Deciding that these institutions are no longer acceptable authorities for whatever realm of sense-making we’ve relied on them for in the past means having to find new sense-makers or take on those tasks ourselves. Most will resist this aggressively.

@KennyCarmody The psych. costs go beyond questioning this one situation. Making sense of the world is especially difficult in areas outside of our personal expertise. Most people offload that responsibility to individuals or institutions the’ve deemed trustworthy—the FDA, CDC, NYT, etc. …

Something worth understanding about why so many people still do not question the COVID injections. It is not simply laziness or indifference. The psychology of not-knowing is more active than that. For many people, the effort required to genuinely examine what happened would mean confronting the possibility that they were deceived by institutions they trusted, that decisions they made cannot be unmade, and that people they dismissed or treated poorly were raising legitimate concerns. Some may call it Cognitive Dissonance. That is a significant psychological cost. And many people are simply not ready to pay it. But the facts remain regardless. The definition of vaccine was changed by the CDC in 2021, from a product that produces immunity to one that produces an immune response. The change was not incidental. The mRNA products did not meet the prior definition and the definition was adjusted to accommodate them. The trials that supported emergency authorisation were of insufficient duration to assess long-term safety. The participants who experienced adverse events were in some cases removed from the efficacy analysis. The placebo group was vaccinated early, eliminating the possibility of genuine long-term comparison. The transmission protection that was used to justify mandates, the claim that vaccination prevented you from passing the virus to others, was never established by the trial data and was acknowledged by Pfizer’s own representative under European Parliament questioning to not have been studied. These are not interpretations. They are documented.

@aspiringpeasant So those are the options, eh? Antivax nut job and whatever it is you are? Well that’s just great.

Antivax nutjobs found muh poast

They want you to get cervical cancer. They want your daughters to get cervical cancer. Sit with this.

@Pies_and_sauce @SmithsonGe67208 @elonmusk Lol.

@SmithsonGe67208 @elonmusk No. The middle class household of today has more wealth and abundance the top 1% 50 years ago could have even dreamt of.

Correct

@dzdarrell @Howlingmutant0 Kinda hilarious that he couldn’t find a friend to hold the phone for him and take the video, or perhaps he couldn’t afford a selfie stick.

@Howlingmutant0 Watch the video of him talking. He sounds like such an incredible faggot

I got doxed by HIV Lovecraft

@FromKulak TYSM for botchlings.

The Entire "Demons" discourse is Christians running around trying to dodge biology that their enemies are biologically evil and compelled to conspire against them from ethnic and self-interested sexual motivation They aren't possessed by demons. They're possessed by being non-whites, queers, and botchlings. Christianity is a universalist religion that can't comprehend people are biologically different and that the botchling refuse of your people who should have been bullied to suicide as adolescents will try to side with the foreign enemies because they're the only people who would ever give them status and revenge on their kinsmen for being better than them. "300" was more psychologically realistic, evolutionarily accurate, and subtle than an entire religion that pretends to unique self-help and psychological insight.

@Ridgewayrocks @Oceanbreeze473 They definitely could be abbreviated.

@Oceanbreeze473 No. They could be abbreviated or in distress. Each case is different and I would not want to have such a burden on my shoulders by shooting at a harmless person.

Should you be allowed to SHOOT a person who has broken into your house .. even if they are UNARMED?

Ok I can explain this to you, because unlike this bunch of losers I’ve worked in marketing. What we market to you is this: An identity you want > A product > A sale Doesn’t matter if it’s a teapot or a banking app. That’s what you do with an ad. Does it make you feel smart? Prestigious? In on the joke? Cool? Safe? That’s how advertisers think. If I say “This hat is cool, and good!” that’s a 2/10 ad. If I say “This hat is the hat you wear on holiday this year when the warm Italian sun floods the vineyards” that’s already put the hat on your head and a luxury holiday. Now, most people do not like racism. I know that’ll shock you because of Elon’s whack algorithm, but most people identify as “not a racist”. Easiest way to say to someone, look how open minded we are, and you are just like us? Diversity in an ad. It’s just sales. You’re just dumb so you see an “agenda”.

@TweetingNinja1 @EthicalSkeptic Check data mode under cellular -> cellular data options -> data mode.

@TweetingNinja1 @EthicalSkeptic They look fine on my 15. Might be a settings thing. Possibly under cellular data? Look for something about downloading lower-res graphics when not on Wi-fi.

ECDO theory stands to shatter mankind's illusions about his past. Only Folleauges know for now.

@jeffgiesea @Jaccusepaper I’m not sure the “incentives” are meant to function solely, or even primarily, as incentives. They may be even more effective at neutralizing the persistent anxieties and hesitation BAP points to as core components of the fertility problem—the persistent buzzkill “what ifs.”

@Jaccusepaper If the problem lies in culture, myth and Dionysian passion, as the author suggests, then the solution does too. Incentives are as Apollonian as tax credits. An elite esoteric cultural movement seems to be both more feasible and more powerful.

@DrClaytonForre1 @SketchesbyBoze You know, now that I think of it, I’ve had a few autocorrects that were pretty spicy, but nothing on that level.

@SketchesbyBoze Maybe his phone "auto-corrected" his text and he didn't catch it.

You can be pretty confident that someone doesn’t read when they say “raped over at Kohl’s” rather than “raked over the coals.” As literacy declines, we are seeing new & unparalleled malapropisms.
