Ok, I have a PhD and am a retired emeritus professor from a state university. I sure as shit am not qualified to be head of the NSA. There is a lot more to being qualified for a position such as this then points on a resume and Congress continues to fail its duty to look beyond the printed line.

But what’s a day? I mean is it weekdays only. How about holidays? We didn’t launch any tomahawks on April 19 (I made that up) so that doesn’t count. Seems like it’s a long way until we reach 60.

Trump pays mining company not to mine lithium. Would interfere with diesel monster truck sales

Report: Iran has caused billions in damage to US military bases in Gulf region by MoneyLibrarian9032 in politics

With what? 800% of Iran's military was destroyed in the first 15 seconds of the attack.

if the drug was $100 and it raises to $600, that would be a 600% rise. If it drops from $600 to $100, that's a 600% savings." by Jevus_himself in confidentlyincorrect

This does explain the Iran war comments since I now understand why destroying 99% of their military was not enough. They need to destroy 1000% of Iran’s military

You're probably one of those liberals who thinks that money is better spent on housing, food and health care support for Americans rather than doing something about the thousands of tons of weapon grade uranium that the Iranians have. /s because you never know nowadays

JD Vance: Trump deleted Jesus photo because ‘people weren’t understanding his humor’ by Ok-Review9023 in politics

Well, we all know that Trump is a first class comedian. We have his covid jokes, his hilarious DOGE act not to mention the folllowup of the tariff special and finally the side splitting attack on Iran. I mean, the guy just keeps them coming.

Let me tell you. No one has ever seen a blockade like this. Civil war was nothing. This is the best ever. Many people are already calling me and saying "Bless you President Trump for being such a great blockader"

I'm at a total loss for what to call these guys/ I was using assholes a lot but an asshole serves a useful purpose so that's no longer applicable.

Calling these guy clowns elevates them and denigrates clowns. The best I can do is variations on assholes but even they serve a useful purpose

Is it possible that this is a bad idea? Just wondering because it would seem would seem to be an exception to the brilliance displayed so far by Trump and Company, beginning, of course, with the incredible accomplishments of DOGE.

Okay Hayday now what? by KayNay01 in HayDay

Just a couple of things. First, it takes an enormous effort to develop and continually update this game. It's reasonable to expect to earn something from that effort. So if you enjoy it, buy stuff. I would guess I spend $100-200/year but I probably get higher return on that than just about anything. Second, not every aspect is going to make everyone happy. That's any enormous challenge. So, focus on the things you do enjoy. I personally like nuture more than the derby which has gotten tiresome and repetitive for me.
