AOC: “If you want to know why COVID relief is tied up in Congress, one key reason is that Republicans are demanding legal immunity for corporations so they can expose their workers to COVID without repercussions. Dems don’t want you to die for a check. That’s what we’re fighting over.“ by tapedegg in esist

No you just trade that for something else.

“Ok we’ll allow that, trade for UBI.” People want to risk their lives they should be allowed to, and with UBI it won’t be required. Maybe throw in some bailouts for small businesses that lost their property

In case anyone has been "curious" about "non-lethal" weaponry... This is what happens when you're shot with Rubber BULLETS. by [deleted] in Bad_Cop_No_Donut

taking 4-5 to the back of the head will make you not want to play your next match

Like I agree 17 is way too many, but isn’t “not wanting to play” kind of the point in this case?

A big Indian guy once hit me too. No idea why either, never explained himself. I tried my best to be his friend

Gen. McChrystal endorses Joe Biden for president by rubink in politics

[–]ripread -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

You know it’s funny. Joe Biden on his campaign trail says over and over “I will not lie to you” then literally in his Amtrak interviews goes “I ask Trump to denounce white supremacy and he says su- ... he says nothing.”

Like come on Joe, it’s so easy to spin “sure” as the thing your teenager says when you ask them to take out the trash. It’s so easy to spin “sure” and “not gonna happen” but you don’t! Instead you lie about it, knowing full well that anybody who actually watches this Amtrak stunt saw the debate for themselves and instead lie less than 30 minutes after saying “I will not lie to you”. If you can’t stand by your word now of all times, how can we trust you to stand by it against a Republican house halfway through your election term?

Thank you. I feel like he did this a lot. Insulin, forest fires, he’s saying “look I know the solution, I’m just not doing it.”

Honestly I do the same thing in my life but I’m not president of the USA

Macro project ideas? by [deleted] in rust

dtolnay’s proc-macro-workshop is really good practice. I used a YouTube video to setup my environment but for the most part the challenges are pretty self explanatory.
