And other people in Congress don’t?

Depression and anxiety are diseases just like cancer is. I don’t see any other Congress members stepping down when they’ve had to be hospitalized for all sorts of reasons.

Dan should smoke a joint and calm down.

Did you read the first two sentences of the article?

What family? My wife and me both work full time. We couldn’t afford having a kid if we even wanted one.

Just don’t go. I didn’t about 6 years ago when my brother died two weeks prior to my summons date for federal in Philly. Never heard about it again.

Got a local one maybe a year ago and just completely forgot about it. Heard nothing about it. Just got another local one in the mail and I won’t forget this time.

For what it’s worth I have served before. But I don’t think the courts are really going to put any effort into coming after you for a no show.

It’s called strategy. It was certainly effective, and completely legal. This isn’t the “gotcha” you think it is.

What kind of jobs have you had that using your phone at work is so restricted you can’t pop on Reddit or whatever else for a couple minutes. Do you know what breaks are, or that smartphones exist? What a fucking stupid attempt at a gotcha.

Fine by me. They can take what I’m assuming are shit paid jobs. But they won’t because the pay is shit. And none of them will get it.

I see a lot of religious and right wing constantly offended by their younger generation. You know, the one they raised and turned out to be better people because of it.

Straw that broke the camels back.

The fact that churches get away with that shit is absurd. It’s illegal. If they want to donate to politicians, they need to start paying taxes.

“I’m higher up so fuck you, I’m working from home but your asses better be in the office.”

If your employees don’t like you, that might have something to do with it. Personally I’d walk into your empty office, toss my badge on your desk, and maybe in two weeks when you next go in you’d realize I quit.

I’m in the private sector and we had to start doing 3 days a week in office for “collaboration”. I have not spoken more than 20 words any day I have been in. My boss sits in her office with her door closed and just IMs people. HR is sabotaging everyone by not allowing IT to provide hardware to work hybrid.

Are you sure you aren’t an idiot?

With a bunch of excuses for it. She’s only sorry because she is facing consequences for her actions.

Welp, guess we’ll have to toss science out.

I don’t even have kids nor do me and the wife plan on them but I agree with this.

Also the sports shit is out of control. Why the fuck does the high school I went to need several astroturf fields? Waste of money.

Context clues.

I’d bet a paycheck to there were plenty of notifications sent before the winter months.

You can freeze in Texas too, even if you pay your bill.

Three strikes - want to step up to the plate again?

Not interesting at all. Don’t pay the bill, don’t get the service. Sounds like you expect free heat just because it’s cold. Do you also expect free electric for air conditioning in the summer?

It’s very much “go back to where you came from, you don’t belong here” for some people I know up there (wife is from the coal region). It’s a really stark difference between MAGA and even Republicans in general, and people who aren’t, who tend to keep quiet when politics come up. And some of the worst of those people are ones living off the government and keep voting to make things worse for themselves because they don’t know how the world works. We don’t visit her mom very often anymore (to be clear - her mom isn’t like that, very much the opposite, my wife is half black). Lots of good people, but a good chunk of them aren’t going to be good to you if you don’t look like them.

It’s probably reasonable to suspect that a car dealership that can’t issue plates has problems a lot bigger than that going on behind it. I wouldn’t trust that branch or any other knowing that.

They never did know how to. Republicans claim to be fiscally conservative but history shows they are the exact opposite. They don’t care if people suffer, as long as it isn’t happening to them, or at least it being worse than other people for various, mostly hateful reasons.

Except that is literally the free market. You think there are actual rules to it?

A whole team who collectively probably spends less time working on it than a single employee in a given month.

It’s not offensive. It’s just inaccurate and makes you an idiot for coming to that conclusion.
