Well how long to you think that’s going to last? They are for-profit companies after all.

If they can base their business on stealing, then we can steal their AI services, right?

Follow in the footsteps of Gil Cisneros…

"…is an American government official, philanthropist, and politician who served as Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness in the Biden administration. He served as the U.S. representative for California’s 39th congressional district from 2019 to 2021

“In 2010, he and his wife won a $266 million Mega Millions lottery jackpot and became philanthropists, establishing endowments for scholarships to be given to Latino students at GWU and the University of Southern California. They also founded Generation First Degree Pico Rivera, with the goal of ensuring every Latino household in Pico Rivera has at least one college graduate, and the Gilbert and Jacki Cisneros Foundation with an initial investment of $20 million to provide mentorship in education.”

Yeah, why go through the trouble of installing a puppet government when we can offer “assistance” with a military base? How many hundred bases are there around the world now? And have any been decommissioned ever?

Yeah, the Democratic party really showed us how they think about positive change when they blocked Bernie. We’re seeing the same dysfunction with how Harris has softened her position on a number of issues. That party machine mainly thinks of itself.

'Had a similar experience with a 2020 Bernie rally in Los Angeles. Big arena, lots of energy, long lines. It was loud but a good experience. I’d recommend it at least once for a candidate that you feel strongly for.

PS: I went on to canvas for Bernie. He won the primary in California!

Thank you all for doing this.

(four leaf) clover have to be in the top five most recognizable too

Post a follow-up please.

Maybe we should check to see what that VP candidate James Donald Bowman, James David Hamel, J. D. Hamel, J. D. Vance, JD Vance has to say about this.

The rail lines…

The two new trains are operated by Caltrain… The trains were put into regular service the following day, running along the route between San Jose and San Francisco.

Get in the habit of getting into habits. My high school chemistry teacher turned me onto this. Make a point of doing something every day for a while and soon it will become hard NOT to do it.

Our dog taught himself how to roll a ball with pretty good accuracy. Coming home from our morning walks we’d play a game where he’d push the ball so it would roll down our driveway. I’d return it. With much concentration and practice he got good at getting it to roll all the way down - even sometimes doing bank shots.

Yeah… after a while.

Me too. The latest sensation: Avocado and canned peas.

The first time camping with my girlfriend. We drove 25 miles down a dirt road to get to the campsite but found it was full. (We hadn’t realized that it was opening day of hunting season.) So we drove 25 miles back and started looking for a hotel. No luck after multiple tries. It was getting dark and we were tired.

The surprise? We still got along just great! Even with the setbacks we took it easy on each other and still found humor. Eventually we found a hotel room, then the next day a beautiful campsite.

So I married her.

“The Good Place” - you bet your fudging life!

I can’t drive 55.

Ranked choice voting would help, but I like that “throw the bum out” option mentioned here.
