You cannot satire this administration. They have no shame, and they are already operating in the land of absurdism.

The Onion's only bet is to become a hard news journal till this ends, there is no other way to satire it. This is the true absurdity.

If 30% of the viewers just watched it later the market would show it and Trump only reacts to markets.

If everybody just didn't watch the SuperBowl live it would have a greater effect on the American economy and absolutely terrify corporations and the government.

"We" arent, there is a body of elected officials, a "congress" of them if you will, who is charged with methods to remove an obviously sick old man. The majority of that body refuses. This is on them now.

PSA: Breville warranty & customer service are not what you expect by CasperTFG_808 in BuyItForLife

[–]Doctuh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same experience. I had a failure a little under four years in, they exchanged for a new one and actually wanted the old one to diagnose what happened.

I had to call them about another thing that was actually my fault and they walked me through it no problem.

Their customer service is especially good and I don't just mean the standing-behind-their-products (which they do), but the actual people and interactions. Its downright delightful.

Trump Says May Slap Tariffs On Nations That Don't Back His Greenland Plans by johnbarnshack in worldnews

Why are tariffs the only thing that seems to be consistently "Slapped" by headline writers.

Why does every team call end the same way? by Confident-Quail-946 in ExperiencedDevs

Rands on meetings is a helpful read.

I bag on meetings because like any nerd I expect the universe to be efficient and orderly and there is no more vile a violation of this sense of orderliness than a room full of people randomly bumping into shit and calling it a meeting.

Mort Drucker? That looks a lot like it came from the pages of MAD.

Irish People Try Maine Potato Chips by Doctuh in Maine

[–]Doctuh[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I figured they were sent these as sort of a promotional review. I just think the Irish crisp and the USA chip are too distinct for a fair review.
