I won't rehash my opinions, they already been better said here, but I want to add I hate the phrase "close the border". What the fuck does that mean, was it open, did the last one in forget to close the door?

From the article, he is considering taking action "to restrict migrants’ ability to seek asylum at the US-Mexico border if they crossed illegally" which has a lot more nuance and is important to the discussion. So this will specifically affect people who have a legitimate claim to asylum, the border was never "open" to any migrants without it (or a visa).

Tomorrow: 3 Million hacked smart fridges were used to spread misinformation that the 3 million toothbrush story wasn't true.

Ok, I tilted my phone and shoved it up my butt... now what? I never get these memes, I must be getting old.

Edit: hold on someone's calling me...

Asshole and full on insurrection supporting MAGA.

Ok, I had to know, so:

  1. It's real
  2. Sold only in Czech Republic around Christmas time, though currently unavailable
  3. Apparently fried Carp is a traditional Christmas eve dish in CR
  4. Because of the Christ feeding 5000 with fish and bread bible story.

I still have questions, but at least I'll be able to sleep tonight.

Rubber ducking, not just for programmers. Listen, acknowledge what you're hearing, ask open ended questions (not leading), and learn from and about their experience. You'll grow closer and both people can gain a lot from it.

No. 1: I didn’t read it — and I won’t. No. 2: All you got to do is look at the author. The author is from Communist China. What more do you need to know?

(emphasis mine)

What a gigantic, ignorant, piece of shit.

Ah yes, because derivative reality shows and bottom-of-the-barrel adult cartoons are so expensive to produce.

What the hell happened, you used to be good.

Just cancelled, haven't touched NF since I subbed to HBO (and even that is getting cancelled next month). Maybe its time to try Hulu.

That's why I always introduce a good bit of entropy to my shopping patterns:

-Enter and go straight to produce
-Spend 20 minutes examining eggplants
-Walk up and down 5 aisles pausing exactly the square of the aisle number in seconds.
-Grab a box of tampons
-Grab what I need as quickly as possible
-Return tampons
-Checkout and leave

Somewhere a marketing team is spending hours trying to figure out how to improve the conversion rates for tampons and eggplants for customers in my demo.

if you’re going to have policies that discriminate against one group of people, then own it, post it publicly,

I grew up right next to a reservation, and my biggest regret is not taking the tribe up on frequent offers to learn their language (one of the languages listed on his shirt). They had free classes and everything. Maybe it's time to give it a go.
