I think if we can divorce this from a discussion on the President, we can make it about what it actually is - the commoditization of the bottom end of the American labor force. Inflation is just kind of like the tide going out.

@Jolly Truly. I don’t understand why dumb phones aren’t offered either. I learned in my 40s presbyopia affects almost all of us as we age so we need cheater readers, at minimum. When I talk to people my own age, many don’t have added apps or even use standard features of their smart phones. Many don’t bank or pay or even access their email. Many have their fonts increased just to see what they need to for text messaging. A dumb phone certainly would’ve helped grandma or my auntie when they were in the nursing home. Both couldn’t grasp steps needed to receive-respond to a text or phone call. To increase the volume, to recharge. And their hands/fingers were quite shaky.

Yeah. They usually can't get much past 35.

They had better tell their boss. LOL https://apnews.com/article/trump-bullet-shrapnel-ronny-jackson-christopher-wray-cb780b9d1a078f0be4191682e75101cf Nearly two weeks after Donald Trump’s near assassination, the FBI confirmed Friday that it was indeed a bullet that struck the former president’s ear, moving to clear up conflicting accounts about what caused the former president’s injuries after a gunman opened fire at a Pennsylvania rally. “What struck former President Trump in the ear was a bullet, whether whole or fragmented into smaller pieces, fired from the deceased subject’s rifle,” the agency said in a statement.

Heh...seen elsewhere. Term limits. [image: 1722388236825-screenshot-2024-07-30-at-8.10.15-pm.png]

I love adaptive cruise control when I'm stuck in traffic. On my way home from downtown, I park myself in a lane and veg out for the ride home.

Again, in a 2 way race, Bloomberg has Trump at 49-46. In a 5 way, it’s Trump 46-45, with RFK getting 3 and Stein getting 1. It seems pretty clear that RFK is dragging votes from Donald, not the Dems…

I never pictured Musk as a doting father.

@blondie My colleague started the process when she was in her mid ‘50’s and completed it two years ago. She is now 69 years old. I am surprised it cost so much for your son to renounce. Sounds like a money grab scheme.
