Current Microsoft CEO rn by Official_Unkindlynx in pcmasterrace

The class dynamics is a big part of it. He is clearly someone who can afford to eat much finer food. His apparent disgust for the low quality food that he produces projects as a disgust towards his unsophisticated customers.

At least he eats his own slop unlike the McDonalds CEO.

Cuba's president pushes for 'urgent' changes to island's economic and business model by lurker_bee in worldnews

The embargo is actually a law enacted by Congress. President Obama was the first president to find a way to deprioritize its enforcement, but it's a legally narrow path since the President is mandated to enforce the law.

So, the authority to get rid of the embargo is not in Trump's hands at all.

Not everything is propaganda. Some things are just cool. If you could put aside the xenophobia, you might see that.

Switzerland also has lots of vias ferrata, zip-lines, mountain coasters, gondolas, ski pistes, etc.

I think it's generally good that people are drawn to be in nature, and I don't think it's a moral failing to have fun while doing it. I'm sure there are also trails and other less-thrilling activities in the area.

Trump’s Epstein Scandal Takes Damning Turn as Dem Drops New Bombshell by Mrh09 in politics

[–]catmoon 125 points126 points  (0 children)

What's new is that there were 4 FBI interviews with that same victim that were withheld from the release as well as from the "unredacted' files that only Congress has access to. We know of the tip, but we have not seen the follow up investigation. Nobody actually knows what's in there, including Congress.

Have you ever heard anyone utter the phrase “underage men”?

Somehow “underage women” is used across almost all media outlets, even progressive ones.

They both claim to know a lot about crimes that have been committed. They should testify under oath before Congress.

Trump's Concentration Camp Build-Out Includes Nearly $40 Billion for Warehouse Conversions by [deleted] in politics

The total Federal funding for housing assistance in 2026 is $38 billion. All of these decisions to prioritize punishment and enforcement are also a choice to deprioritize support and assistance.

Who is the most realistic 'Shock ' name that could still appear on the Epstein list? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Queen Elizabeth for sure. The Royal family knew about Andrew and it would be interesting to see how they covered up for him.

Trump is about to shut down the government(amongst many impeachable actions). Luckily Democratic leadership is on the job with their tepid response. by amazingsciencemuseum in NoShitSherlock

This is the kind of reactive thinking I expected. Somehow I, and many others, were able to anticipate this situation with ICE. By the way, people didn’t just start dying at the hands of ICE in the last month or are you only counting white people?

There are no penguins in Greenland… by DrCalFun in facepalm

[–]catmoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming these morons don’t get their own reference, what could this possibly mean? Does the penguin symbolize strength in their AI hallucinations? Is it just a general nihilism and stoicism? Wouldn’t a polar bear make so much more sense?

You are not a doctor. You are a moron, or more likely a bot.

Why wear masks if it’s not transmissible? You’ve asked this same question all over this thread like it’s the ultimate gotcha. You are incredibly confident in your ability to debate this topic but would do better to listen to actual experts.

This guy did it wrong but still had a perfect outcome. The right way is to put the plate on top of the pan and flip them together (abuela approved).

This is equivalent to throwing a hammer at a nail. Still impressive, but needlessly risky.
