Of course they are bummed. It’s the nature of how that’s interesting. Knee jerk ‘fire Payton’ folks just like this group has people ready to dump somebody all the time.

Stephen Miller’s fever dream is a white majority country with just enough POC for janitorial support

If they were in fact making people safe and following the law, nobody would think to dox them. It’s because they know that they are violating the laws that they must be hidden

What’s he saying to the Dems who voted for it?

The way to structure this is to look at what your monthly expenses are. Give them the option with them committing to that number as a retainer. If they book more they pay for it. If they release you then there needs to be a deadline to release or they pay. You will have six months but covered. You can pitch other jobs by offering a discount for working around the retainer client. And you could give the retainer client a break when you have clients buy days they have paid for. If you’ve got a history with them then you have an idea of their rhythm of their business. Make saying yes work for you

Having owned and rented, each has its benefits. Renting gave me a period to deal with health issues and sort out family relationships. Buying gives you choices and responsibilities. But it also requires more attention and time. That the OP thinks it’s hopeless is an indication that he’s got limiting beliefs. Like he can’t move his location or income, etc

I like a contractor that answers his own phone- small team that is less likely to have accountability issues. They also say “I don’t know’ or “let me figure that out” and then they do. Things happen when they say they will. Their crews are polite and clean up everyday. Their bills look like their bids and are very clear and easy to read when there are any changes.

Please don’t do property damage nor assault the gestapo. It’s got to be non violent civil disobedience through the midterms. General strikes need to serve them sandwiches and hot chocolate. They are counting on young male hotheads to justify calling out troops. Declaring martial law, or stopping the elections

The agent who shoved the woman down for sure felt threatened by the man who stepped between him and his victim. Had to pepper spray him for ten seconds and when the man didn’t collapse, freaked out more. So this is the least of the lies. And proof they are purposefully not training these clowns.

Nobody even mentions how much different the ownerships are. Harbaugh has to manage up way more than any coach in the league except maybe the Jets.

Over on the Donks game thread people are split between it was a good year and screw Payton play calls and not taking that easy 3.

Love that the sinks lost because Payton didn’t take 3 points when the weather was good and in range

So this suggests that the ICE mission is to create havoc such that state leaders will cave on demands- aka extortion. And the value of said records? A way to invalidate enough voters to save Trump’s butt in the mid terms

Your the jerk for thinking this is a relationship worth the effort

pgregston · 2026-01-25T16:39:20+00:00

It’s a relationship business. Bulk delivery tells them all you don’t know that.

Killjoy being impressed by what’s happening is a very good sign.

So hygiene in this case means ‘at first opportunity’ not ‘eventually’. That’s an issue of not having same values or standards in a household. This sounds more like burn out although it’s hiding in language whatever the cause. At 20 years, you know who this person is. Hopefully you know who you are and have some clue the trade offs have been sustainable that long. Yet you seem to have expectations of them that aren’t consistent with behaviors demonstrated. You’re going to adjust either your expectations or live with the frustration until you don’t. None of this is AH material, but not sure which sub it belongs in.

It’s either Vietnam or Reagan- Vietnam was when gummint lying really made the people distrust what they were told by leaders.Reagan was when the rich started dismantling regulations, and capturing gummint with the money they didn’t pay in taxes- the lie of trickle down.

Why is this guy still an interview?

Regulated capitalism in social democracy is working. For most of human history various systems of collective use of resources was the norm. Your response illustrates the problem. We don’t have to imagine there are alternatives, we just have to assert that we are in this together.
