BTW--we were still a net exporter of oil in 2021, if you have any trumpbots in your family yammering about how "we were energy independent" under Trump but not Biden lol

 

The wording here is strange. "Attempt to compromise"..the screenshots clearly show there was compromise, odd to frame it as an "attempt".

 

Sure, but they didn't disclose it back in January, so it must have only been an "attempt"! It's an odd statement.

 

"AP: US has run out of money to buy potential fourth dose of the vaccine"

WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Looks like the lack of funding is due to the stalled funding of this bill: https://www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2022/03/15/white-house-republicans-coronavirus-aid/

 

Fun stuff

 

“This is for the questions that don’t have an answer” - Kid Rock, “Bawditdaba”

 

I'm glad that the reverence for Limp Bizkit didn't carry over to Kid Rock.

 

simply….get in the pit and try to love someone

 

I remember buying that CD back in the day and thinking that song absolutely rocked

 

We had a "mosh pit" to that song during my high school prom.

 

Limp Bizkit is unironically waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than Kid Rock.

 

yeah, you're worse.

 

I mean Iraq wasn't that long ago. Shock and Awe killed a craptop of civilians.

Obama and Biden have both tried to tamp down on collateral damage, Trump purposefully increased it. Unless you're really buying into Obama's later years/The Biden direction we're on, it's hard to say we're much different considering we were doing horrible things to civilians in very very very recent years lol

 

At best, i could maybe give them an argument of one is cruelly indifferent and one is cruelly purposeful but even that's a stretch lol

 

recent years? today.

 

No one at work even knew about the Okta breach. I'm the one that had to tell all the managers about it lol

 

Yeah its just 1,000,000 dead Iraqis that's our bad whoopsie daisy
A bunch of children born with birth defects due to our illegal use of white phosphorus munitions? So sorry we done goofed we didn't mean it though so it's ok!
