We need a mandatory retirement age for federal appointees, fucking immediately.

I’m honestly surprised this doesn’t happen more often than it does, considering how much coffee McD’s sells.

That would be a more accurate title.

I’m honestly surprised that 30% didn’t need some form of support.

This is one of those situations where there was no need for a police interaction at all, let alone a violent or forceful one.

The strike isn’t all bad, clearly.

100% of the time.

The public face a politician puts forth is often very different than the actual person, and it’s been that way since forever.

I’m not surprised. You send your kids off to day care or public school, you’re just trusting in the good will of strangers at that point. Especially times 1000 if your kid has a mental health condition.

Even if these people successfully sue the school and the employee - so what? Their kids’ still traumatized, the damage is done.

The advice i have always heard about suing someone for money is that if you win, collecting is a real pain in the ass.

Considering what a total wasteland amazon’s self published section is, i don’t know that it could be much worse.

Of course any author with an IQ over 70 would have the good sense to never disclose they were using AI.

We seriously need age limits for elected officials, it’s absolutely absurd to have an octogenarian in a position of authority like that.

While we’re at it, term limits for congress would be nice - 19 terms is absolutely ridiculous.

Just think of the money saved in severance by them quitting instead of being fired, which is probably the plan all along.

Christ, imagine you get a day off school and you still gotta do online. I’d be pissed.

My town didn’t have cops for over three years, and it was totally fine.

Alot of weapons laws, when one looks at them, are based on pure hysteria and nonsensical reasoning, and the silencer laws certainly are.

How the NFA ever got past the supreme court is a mystery to me since it clearly infringes on the 2A. It’s a bad law and it needs to go.

I mean to be fair assault and public intox are about what i’d expect out of most military vets. It isn’t like the VA’s giving them good mental health assistance after they return home.

Yahoo, too, is still out there and pumping out news stories and such.

That’s my thought as well, these shots are not going to be tuned for the variants we face today but the variants we faced months ago.

I think a lot of people have never met people actually from WVa, but I have - i have lived near the state my entire life. There is no one more ignorant, backwards, than the average West Virginian. They simply do not care: about the future, about what anyone thinks of them, about repercussions for their actions.

It’s really hard to believe if you haven’t experienced it first hand.

Anyone who feels differently or does not fit in - leaves as soon as they are able to, because literally anywhere else is likely to have more opportunities for actual job growth and careers.
