I have to object to your use of the term “defenders”

Might as well use the same sleight of hand that we use in the US: they’re not “defending Israel”, they’re “defending Israeli interests”.

My Florida (of course) cousins are half-Thai and rabidly anti-immigrant (their father, who was white and also rabidly anti-immigrant married their mother in Thailand in the service and brought her back to the US). It just doesn’t make any earthly sense. For bonus points, they both happen to look vaguely Central American and have been harassed for that all their lives.

I know Qt is cross-platform, but cars? Wow! I only ever used it for shitty Skype clones for Canadian ISPs.

Well, I am a Prodigy at that sort of thing!

Y’all need Qt Creator: C++ for under the hood and Javascript for the UI. Virtually nonexistent base of coders who can do both competently and if you’re not careful you end up moving to Finland because of it.

I started out with Visual Basic using the Variant type all the time, and even though I was usually just working on one-person projects it was a fucking disaster. You don’t even have to collaborate to see the virtues of strong typing.

just because it’s innovative and disruptive to invent the machine gun doesn’t mean it’s good

That’s a great Maxim.

There are a lot of media stories about healthcare professionals being caught stealing opioids.

Like the new VP’s mom, for example.

OP is unaware Logan’s Run was just a shitty movie - except for that open-sided dress, of course. Renew!

Duarte said the Trump administration should pledge that immigrant workers in the country for five years or longer with no criminal record will not be targeted and look at avenues to permanent legal status.

Bwah hah hah! Sure, that’s something that’s going to be coming out of trump’s mouth.

Pretty amazing that he turned Andy Dick into the second-worst person to come out of that show.

He was great in News Radio.

The penalty is usually a fine, which impacts stockholders by making the stock less valuable

Of course they can always compensate for this by firing a bunch of people.

I’m still embarrassed by how much I loved the original. But how can you not love “I used to fuck guys like you in prison” and ripping out a dude’s throat with two fingers?

I have even more respect for Khabib Nurmagomedov now. “I want to change his face”. Of course Khabib is probably a douchebag too.

TBF roofing companies also rely heavily on ex-felons, so they’re well-positioned to survive mass deportations.

Here in the US, undocumented immigrants form the backbone of food production (agriculture and meat processing) and restaurants, such that mass deportations would cause unimaginable inflation in food prices. I want to think that means the Republicans won’t actually do it, but I thought they wouldn’t actually overturn Roe v. Wade either.

while Superman himself is invulnerable, the rest of the world isn’t

Larry Niven wrote a great essay many years ago about the physical realities of being Superman. My favorite bit was about how him having sex with Lois Lane would have resulted in her head being blown off.
