If it was just the word ‘racist’ then it would seem obviously intentional. But any word starting with ‘R’? What’s the point of that?

@Jolly said in RTO. Different office?: @89th said in RTO. Different office?: The thing is... Trump is an alpha leader. I enjoy that aspect about him, sometimes. He could force a prudent strategy of change if he wanted to that doesn't fall into the paralysis trap. He could say "every agency needs to cut staff by 20% over the next two years, and also provide an executive summary of where funding goes in the next 3 months so that I can figure out where it makes sense to suggest/force cuts". Now I'm sure you'll say it's totally fine just because that's the line, and I don't know your line of work specifically, but imagine if the governor came to your hospital and just fired everyone and said "Meh, gotta break things to fix things!... we'll figure out after everyone is gone what jobs are needed and re-hire new folks as needed. I'm sure you'd say... yeah, not the brightest approach." The governor did come to my hospital and he did fire everybody. Link?

We have chats at work and we discuss all kind of shit there. I imagine if you have chats in a sufficiently large organization then yes, some people would talk about sex stuff. No big deal, in my opinion, as long as nobody's in the audience who doesn't want to read this. If you take the collected chats of every company with more than 10,000 employees, then you'll find "sex chats" with 99.9% probability. It would be different if chat rooms specifically for these topics were explicitly and officially created. That would raise questions.

I haven't seen much but have seen a few videos of Massie, and he seems to be the only sane person in a house full of lunatics with checkbooks. Not sure these links will work (tik tok, instagram) but here's a CSPAN hallway interview of how he was convinced in the closed door session... to vote no. https://www.tiktok.com/@cspanofficial/video/7475456246137703726 https://www.instagram.com/cspan/reel/DGgll6MRelm/?locale=ne_NP&hl=es (EDIT 11 hours later, Jon has a thread with a better video of this: https://nodebb.the-new-coffee-room.club/topic/36882/massie-this-bill-adds-20t-to-the-debt-increase-10-years)

They’re gonna fly free for life.

If heard the name but couldn’t place it. Good thing they caught it early.

@Jolly said in HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY!: @LuFins-Dad said in HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY!: This ought to get a reply from @George-K Dr. K hasn't been here in several days. He may soon have company. I'm thinking of taking my business to Bluesky. All I have to do is post something like "Joy Reid was fired by racist MSNBC white male executives, because Trump's DEI policies force companies to fire all of their Black employees". I get about 100 likes in an hour by posting that. AND several mind slaves. here, I get jack shit for posting anything. This place is complete garbage.

You've got a point, there.

Yeah and “that FuCa” would drown anyone in a spoonful of water if he thought it would gain him more attention. He’s a nickel harlot.

I'd like to see a ketamine overlay on that graph.

Hey! Aren't we all friends? So I guess I'm covered for a long life!

LOL

It was clearly AI. In the real video it was Putin’s feet.
