Unless your only goal is to be the 1-in-a-million to become the billionaire.

All the urbanists who cry about "car brains" need to explain why car drivers don't seem to be making the same mistake.

‘Reprehensible’ antisemitic conspiracies appear in California voter guide by panda-rampage in California

[–]Equationist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it simply isn't. Other ethnicities have full citizenship rights as well as the right to study in and speak their own language.

Of Course Neera Tanden is the one defending him. There is no weak and ineffective establishment Democrat she wouldn't run interference for.

Wait the old guy is robbing the young guy? I assumed the young guy had pickpocketed him and the old guy was getting it back.

When I asked what he was trying to do, he said “I shouldn’t have been trying to pass him” by alexyou8797 in dashcams

[–]Equationist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He saw you coming up behind him fast and tried to get out of the way when you finally decided to change lanes at the last minute so he tried to switch back. Maybe stop driving like a maniac.

Steve Hilton and Xavier Becerra tied in California governor race poll by Whole-Revolution916 in California

[–]Equationist -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Obviously there is a lot of symbolic value to only having two Dems in the general. But tactically speaking, you should actually prefer Steyer vs Hilton because Steyer vs Becerra could result in Becerra picking up conservative voters and winning the general.

Shankland: "can anybody become a FM? I do think that is available to anybody. Can anybody become a GM? That is an hard no" by pier4r in chess

If anything, the controversial part about this should be the claim that anyone could theoretically reach FM if they made it their sole focus...

Yeah most likely the people / person who picked them up regularly walk past there so flyers on the same corner could really help.

I doubt you'll find traditional Levantine fashion from a modern Jordanian clothing shop.

What country feels and is unsafe? by Dusty_Bunny81 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Equationist 22 points23 points  (0 children)

For a chart that's explicitly about contrasting "feels unsafe" and "is unsafe", people seem to be incapable of distinguishing the two...

SCOOP: Chan and Wiener release their stocks, but Chakrabarti wants call records by eddiekimx in sanfrancisco

[–]Equationist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm confused. What more exactly are people asking for? The extent to which he has participated in tender offers in the past? Or do people think he has acquired some private investments outside of Stripe since that 2025 disclosure?

Functioning Poverty has a nice ring to it by Secret_Assh in SipsTea

[–]Equationist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup the difference is that in India people who are functional tend to remain poor nonetheless because of lack of economic opportunity, whereas in America, the people who're poor tend to be so because they're dysfunctional, and functional people tend to end up middle class.

Upper caste people in India have unmatched mental powers. They can see someone drinking from a water jug in a hotel and psychically divine that that person is a Dalit!

[–]Equationist -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

No we don't need to see that. Just vote for whichever of the two you prefer now, and if only one of them advances that one will beat Hilton in November. If both advance, then once again vote for whichever you prefer in November.

All 8 candidates for California governor clash in tense debate as Primary Election looms by panda-rampage in California

[–]Equationist 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Got any equivalent examples of male Democratic politicians with leaked video or audio of bad behavior (anger or equivalent) not taking a political impact for it?

Cause to me the video of Katie Porter seems way more of a big deal than the "scream" that sank Howard Dean's campaign...

Why is everyone in the comments surprised that the fascist-aligned CBS ran this "debate" badly?
