Democrats should be doing a lot of things instead of waiting around for those “good” billionaires to show up. Both parties need to split and take huge chunks of resources with them to form a party that actually does represent the majority. This has happened before in American history but, at this point, it’s just wishful thinking I guess.

From the linked court document in the article: https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.insd.215482/gov.uscourts.insd.215482.99.0.pdf?ref=404media.co

“For the reasons set forth above, the Undersigned, in his discretion, hereby RECOMMENDS that Mr. Ramirez be personally SANCTIONED in the amount of $15,000 pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11 for submitting to the Court and opposing counsel, on three separate occasions, briefs that contained citations to non-existent cases. In addition, the Undersigned REFERS the matter of Mr. Ramirez’s misconduct in this case to the Chief Judge pursuant to Local Rule of Disciplinary Enforcement 2(a) for consideration of any further discipline that may be appropriate”

Mr. Ramirez is the dumbass lawyer that didn’t check his dumbass AI. If you read above the paragraph I copied from, he gets laid into by the judge in writing to justify recommendation for sanctions and discipline. Good catch by the judge and the processes they have for this kind of thing.

^ Troll alert. Don’t feed it.

I stand corrected.

We all know Valve can’t count past two.

I remember a time when Google wrote “Don’t be evil” all over their stuff…

The type steel they used isn’t easily bendable. In fact, it’s a very expensive process just to get the panels in the shape they are. You also have to replace a whole panel if it gets damaged. Instead of snapping / drilling things into place, I’m guessing this is why they just slap Elmer’s glue on with " the highest quality allowed by law" (Tesla’s words) 3M blue tape. It’s $100k for a reason, but a reason that creates maximum turd polishing for people that bought it.

Willful ignorance is a powerful tool to wield for dictatorships. What part of the Project 2025 instruction manual for the destruction of democracy mentioned anything about a “fine tooth comb” method for this change?

In some agencies, you are trained to disobey an unethical or unlawful order. I guess people just rapidly clicked through the power point slides on mandatory training days.

Would be nice if we had an actual opposition party to, you know, put in bills to oppose the massive abuse of power that’s been going on for a while now. Instead we get frumpy faces, folded arms, an occasional angry letter, moral victories, and of course the “that’ll show 'em” bills.

Can start with people not directing anyone to the .ml, or .ml like instances for starters. Maybe even sticky that the top.

For those of you who remember Captain N … Even had a smoker’s voice for whatever reason. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULslwGCpOdc

"Hotdog … no hotdog … " That’s the first thing I thought when it said AI. I know it’s not real, but that just makes it funny.

“He made an awkward statement / expression” Would be the statement posted to win the platinum medal in mental gymnastics. Just exceeding gold medals at this point.

I can see this going absolutely side ways when your mind tries to cope with where 1000+ hours of your life went. Also you’d probably get 1000+ hours of ads beamed into your brain to make up for that gap of time, unless you pay for the “Memory+” or “Memory Max” tier, with just slightly less ads. Would be cool to experience a game for the first time again, but I would just read a book or share gaming “war stories” with my imaginary buddies.

Hope they like the leopards shitting on their faces.

Is that before or after they eat their faces?

That’s a red flag that the managers have no idea what they are asking for and have no idea what it is they make. They just know the last person that probably up and quit to go be a in a completely different career was the only person that retained that knowledge.

In this climate, you are giving them what they want with violence. BLM is now considered terrorism and did not accomplish their objective. The violence was hijacked by people that just wanted to loot and plunder and gave fuel to the media demonize it. Lives were also needlessly lost and a lot of property destroyed for a brief moment of fleeting justice. Need I remind everyone the Civil Rights Movement, just as a violent time, was not achieved with protestors throwing the first stone. Defend yourself for sure, but don’t instigate it.

Those that call for violence on either side are the first to cower or get killed on the front line and drag the rest of us into their mess. There is no regurgitation of state propaganda in my statement. What’s wrong with holding a sign up that says “Fuck President Musk” ? We all know both of those clowns have thin skin. Make that your chant and make them hear it. Get into their heads. Make them fall on their own sword for once.

I don’t encourage anyone to sacrifice themselves on the alter of idiocy either. Be tactful out there.

Both parties need to split up into new parties. However, the money flowing is incentive to prevent them from doing that. Party splits have happened before several times in US history. This time the billionaires are funding all of this chaos thanks to legislation they started passing since post Watergate. How do we get them to split? Take the money out or give them more money than the billionaires can. Both resolutions that should not require drawing blood. How do we do that? I have no idea how to fund more money than billionaires, but being somewhat of an optimist, 99% of the population can probably figure out a way once they stop this tribal mentality of red vs blue.
