This all assumes all years are measured by the same orbit with no mixing and matching planets or space habitats.

The standard earth year had not been adopted system wide

A plague of posts please

I honestly don’t understand this

Few things are as violent and shitty as forcing births on people.

Two takeaways I noted was that the majority of people censoring these cartoons consider themselves part of Democratic Party.

Every large party has their extremists, I am not attacking them on that.

But people who oppress one group find it easy to change their targets, historically. This is very well documented in many languages and histories.

Which is my second point: many of these will join forces with authoritarians should that happen to their government ; and do it openly, some will have what the them are good arguments.

And it’s not only anti Palestinians, pro Israeli.

There will be a lot of new political bedfellows, and it’s going to surprise many.

Have you heard of our lord and savior memory management?

No, not those other false gods

King wrote this in the 1960s, but it applies equally to fascism today

I must confess that over the past few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to ‘order’ than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice

Controlled opposition and an apathetic population be like that when the crises strikes.

Rust is both a nice programming language, and an obnoxious social movement made of a small minority of Rust programmers who are very loud

It’s a planned disabling of ss.

The trepidation of news sources, or even most social media, to call it deliberate sabotage, gives them cover.

The majority of the American public does not deal at all with this level of tech. And the small percentage of people who understand can not influence anything.

It’s a sneaky way to shut down social security. Everyone in Doge knows it will break the system. Really break it. And that is bad, of course ( there is a but here)

But I think it’s brilliant to do it this way because 95% of the people reading the news do not see the ramifications. And will not see it later, they will know it’s gone but how? Why? It’s so complicated!

The American public is really gullible, and this gives enough political cover to avoid the oft stated “gone too far” mantra about disabling social security.

Bad people can have good plans to do wicked stuff

Some socks have horrible return times

I don’t understand egg-xactly how that would work? Eu standards are different. Would the new administration change fda rules out of hand, eliminating the wash and change mandated ( because USA eggs are so nasty in the factory farms this is required); or would someone connected make bank in a new scam to “process” them? Either way, there are not enough eggs to bring down prices, so all this is just a demented publicity stunt, with Americans being egged on about it

More like the department will be crippled for years. The replaced code will not work, corrupting data. I fully expect them to make it hard to replace the new stuff with the older systems which has tens of millions of moving parts.

The damage will be so great that people applying for social security a generation from now will still feel aftereffects

It’s more like the rubes listen how about terrorists are being stopped from doing their dastardly plans, and why did the dems not do that before?

I will never understand how people can blindly defend Biden, or even think that the destruction of infrastructure on a massive scale is business as usual. Or cannot be stopped under any circumstance.

Perhaps you and others have no clue of the extent of the damage , or perhaps you don’t care? Perhaps it makes you feel better to think nothing could be done.

Honestly feel contempt at this moment

Who knows? I would like to think that; my point is, that if Biden officially recognized what was happening , and made it a point to try to stop the damage, then lots of options come open after that.

But, he ignored that: we will never know

He could have allowed criminal charges against DeJoy, it’s hard to keep one’s position if convicted and serving a multi year sentence.

DeJoy destroyed so much of the infrastructure that he could have easily been charged for dozens of things, even murder when prescribed medications were lost by the tens of thousands due to the backlogs he created.
