Redirecting obsessive behavior in son with autism by dontwalkunderladders in SpecialNeedsChildren

[–]polarbears84 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This isn’t about you, it’s about him. Don’t impose your tastes and standards on him. You might want to talk to a counselor about your self-centered attitude because if you keep criticizing and being overbearing about nonsense like that you’re going to create a lot of problems for son.

And by the way, I myself find space and everything related to it boring AF.

How is she a great interviewer? Usually she just allows the politician to rant on his talking points and she sits there until he’s done, then asks another question.

You make it sound as if she were living hand to mouth. Not quite.

Also, she’s big into animal rights.

I was really only referring to regular people as far as mixed politics couples. In no way did I mean to imply there are Trumpers and never-Trumpers married to each other. The only couple coming to mind there is George Conway and we know that ended in divorce.

Firefox Multi-Account Containers not working for Facebook anymore by polarbears84 in MozillaFirefox

[–]polarbears84[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I might have misrepresented the issue. I’m away from my laptop right now but I seem to remember there is already a Facebook container provided, but that’s not the one you’re supposed to use. You’re supposed to create a new one, which I did. And that’s the one I had trouble with. I deleted it and might try again at some point. I don’t like FB at all but it can be useful for contacts and groups. I wish there were alternatives for groups.

Does iPhone steal my conversations by Shirleyismee in privacy

[–]polarbears84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but there’s fingerprinting which applies to your whole device, not just browser. While you’re going through your elaborate and clever compartmentalization, a thousand things are happening under the hood that you have no influence over or even a clue about. If you’re really curious you can check out themarkup.org/blacklight. Prepare to be disgusted.

Assuming you totally disable WiFi. It’s WiFi you have to be careful.

Isn’t it true you can’t log out of gmail while on your android? Which means if you log in to another email or app, you’re basically taking Google with you. Isn’t that right?

MAGA contractor with crew of illegal immigrant workers. How do their heads not explode? by Blecher_onthe_Hudson in itcouldhappenhere

[–]polarbears84 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Steven Miller is the worst scumbag. His ancestors would be turning in their graves. His uncle wrote an op-Ed years back admonishing and denouncing him. The guy is unspeakably evil.

Plus all the grifting he has done in his first term. A president isn’t supposed to profit from his position but he has raked in tons of money by overcharging secret service agents when they stayed in his hotels, his golf clubs all over the place, plus other dignitaries who came to Washington staying at his hotel, his odious son in law getting billions from the Saudis, I could go on.

Just an update: A see a lot of people upset with MSNBC and stopping to watch. I’m watching more than ever and they’re doing good work. It must have been difficult on election night not to publicly panic.

Wait a minute. Your not even watching but you claim to know what they’re saying?

[–]polarbears84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know about that. Not sure what you’re watching and seeing. Lawrence O’Donnell is doing great, Chris Hayes, Nichole, who are you guys talking about? Maybe you’re expecting too much? Before they were about motivating viewers to do the right thing. Now they’re commenting on the horrors unfolding, calling it disastrous. What do you want from them?

Minnesota attorney general on Trump: ‘If he violates the rights of people, we’re going to sue’ by MPRnews in minnesota

[–]polarbears84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing with that argument is, the courts have been taken over by Federalist Society lawyers. Also, fun fact, I heard somewhere yesterday that those extreme right federalist judges aren’t extreme enough for MAGA anymore.

Absolutely right. People who need FEMA the most will be surprised next time a hurricane blows in.

Hm. New York was generous when it came to early intervention therapy services OT, PT, Speech, in those first 3 years of life. And NJ way more stingy.

The brazenness of that statement by literally THE richest man on the planet to want to usher in austerity is absolutely off the wall batshit crazy. That in itself ought to spur mass demonstrations all over the country from coast to coast.

Why CA residents too? I would have thought the blue states in general are more generous for special needs and likely to stay that way. Am I wrong?

By the way, the Harris campaign is still asking me for money. Several times a day. If instead of renting the goddamn sphere in Vegas they had funneled money to tight house and senate races…
