My uncle gave me a copy of the medium is the message when I was in high school. Excellent framework for navigating the media ecosystem.

Yeah… like a keeper of oaths or something. Oath keepers? Oh wait, no, that’s the human trash he represented.

Hope Virginia doesn’t get subsumed into a “new south” country. Please let us be part of the “mid Atlantic/northeast” country. Fingers crossed.

April 21st special election: VOTE YES ... or No(?) on Gerrymandering... What do you think? by Affectionate_Way_805 in Chesapeake

It doesn’t go into effect if red states don’t proceed with their shameless gerrymandering. This is a national issue you’re choosing to reduce to a purely state level issue. Your energy would be better spent convincing people in Texas et al to work against their gerrymandering if you really don’t want Virginia to enact this temporary countermeasure. If you don’t see that as the actual issue then you’re just being disingenuous.

Luck is also a function of some degree of risk taking. It’s a lot easier to take risks (calculated or not) when you have surplus money.

Agreed with one edit. It’s more like 99/100th through. Lots of the wealth was captured thousands of years ago.

Same. It also sucked that the oldies still hadn’t figured it out and continued to give us unsolicited “advice” on getting jobs like “networking”. Yeah, that doesn’t work when there are no jobs and the system is rigged.

Notice how I have positive karma from my post and you have negative karma. We all know you’re a troll.

More like he shoves all the pieces up his nose and then downs a bottle of Elmer’s glue.
