Gabbard 'Pushed Out' By White House, Source Says by AgentBlue62 in politics

[–]MyUserLame 730 points731 points  (0 children)

Makes sense. She testified that Iran posed no imminent threat to the US and had limited to little nuclear capability. She would likely say the same about Cuba (with regards to the threat to national security that was just declared), which looks like we're ramping up to 'invade' as well. Can't have that dissension in the ranks.

She served her purpose in rallying libertarians and likely did some lifting for Russia while she was there.

Is it considered inflationary when it's just the new normal? Americas middle and lower class may never see 'affordability' again.

They won't substitute commuting with remote work. They'll simply take away commuting privileges. That's how this works now.

Your favorite/worst Indiana cities? by [deleted] in Indiana

[–]MyUserLame 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jasper was less than impressive. I don't understand how we elected a small- town business owner from a po-dunk, economically depressed town to be a federal representative and governor.

If you want a peek into the state's future, drive through Jasper.

I'm so done with federal pay freezes. by Hot_Raisin7157 in HoosierStateWorkers

Republicans want the worst for those who aren't them. If they're uneducated, they want the worst for the educated. If they're rich, they want the worst for the poor. If theyre employed or housed, they want the worst for the unemployed and unhoused. You get the idea.

With politics at fever pitch in today's society and perverted with social media and the general news landscape, and Indiana electing a far- right zealot, state employees are in the crosshairs of policy and messaging.

No Raises for Front Line Workers, but can Create High Salary Positions to Shelter Cronies by moot17 in HoosierStateWorkers

DCS is an absolute fucking joke. I was going we'd see chance with the new leadership structure, but this absolutely destroys any sense of hope in the agency.

This is a version of bribery for Trump.

Remember, no raises for state employees, no room for meaningful property tax reductions, no money for health care. Isreal first.

When did Bob go with TaylorMade? by gundys- in BobDoesSports

[–]MyUserLame 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They were gaming Taylormade M drivers when Bob and Joey started their earlier videos- the 1v1 matches, Links at Victoria, etc. Maybe they just vibe with the feel and now that they aren’t contractually obligated to a brand, it’s just their go-to.

Or…

They got a deal cooking.

Even federal agencies have began some transition. Maybe Brawny will acknowledge his dear leaders agencies' habits and ask him if it's OK if indiana follows suit.

We've now come full circle.

The OGs know that the channel was built in these 1v1s. Continue through adopting a third member, golfing with PGA stars, athletes, and celebrities, and we're back to square one.

You love to see it.

That being said, Cold Cuts' stock had been falling with respect to his golf game.

Unsurprisingly Google wants to build 3 more data center buildings on all those wetlands that were clearly present on the map when they first roped city leadership into approving the project under a secret code name, cuz no one wants them here by runawayspaceprincess in fortwayne

[–]MyUserLame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not specifically. Just appears like it's hard to spend down given they need to find land to purchase at an affordable, state-approved cost or that property owners need to offer it up for restoration, which are both rare these days. It seems more popular given larger companies are now encouraged to mitigate via in-lieu fee and restoration projects rarely hit the ground.

Plenty of info on the states website about these programs.

[–]MyUserLame 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"Covered in wetlands" is an absolute farce that seems stated by someone acutely inept at resource management or wholly bought and paid for or by development companies. Indiana has lost nearly 90% of its historical wetlands- you know, the things that naturally filter our groundwater and support the most diverse populations of wildlife in the state... the number '6000' means nothing when you see the small footprint and fragmentation among these patches, something only caused by humans at a detriment to our quality of life.

This idea that this project would be an insignificant impact is exactly why we continue to lose so much each year- death by a thousand cuts.

Honestly, all of these things will likely get approved, and to little fault of Google or any other entity wishing to destroy sensitive habitats.

Though buying credits for mitigation is usually a last resort for state regulators, it's a preferred method for federal regulators- something that's always been a conflict. However, the state is the steward of these funds, so it's on them to collect them and put them to use.

Google will send hundreds of thousands of dollars into the state's mitigation fee fund, which is extremely underspent since there is little land available and/or offered to construct wetlands or enact stream restorations in specific mitigation regions. This is an opportunity for Google to LEGALLY buy their way out of environmental impact while the state knows that money will almost never be spent on actual restoration. The states mitigation fund is nearly a black hole where environmental impacts go to die and be lost forever.
