She acted like she was entitled to the job. Anytime she spoke, it felt like she was holding her nose to do it. She was riddled by controversy for decades (deserved or not).

She was just such a bad choice and probably one of the few people who could have lost to Trump.

It already can.

There are some places where an inability to pay fines, can result in a warrant and imprisonment.

8% now. 20 years ago, it was a third of that. If there is profit to be made, profit will be made. It's also just one small factor in an extremely shitty whole.

The fact prison labour exists at all is an issue. If prisoners truly benefited from it, like a fair wage plus every day reducing their sentence, then I could hold my nose, but as is. Slavery.

This is proof they don't understand the endgame here. The only (legal) type of slavery left in the United States is prisoner labour. It is not a coincidence that the right wants to make so many things criminal. It's also not a coincidence they want to keep poor people desperate because it makes them more likely to commit crime. It's not a coincidence they support minimum sentences.

More crime, more free labour, more for profit prisons selling services.....

Because it's never been about anything other than control. The right to choose anything is abhorrent to them. The only rights they want you to have are the right to be dictated to and the right to be like them.

I switched to Tuxedo. It solved some weird stability issues I had, which were mostly monitor resolution and layout issues.

A group of Republicans and other conservatives that have been anti Trump since 2019.

Their stated goal was to prevent Trump from getting elected again.

I'm new to the world of Linux as a main OS, and I ran Mint for a while, wanted to try KDE Plasma, installed and ran it on mint for a while and blew away mint for a distro with KDE Plasma once I knew it's what I wanted.

To say I had jank is an understatement.

Secretly?

The Lincoln Project goes hard every election.

Asus made me handwrite a note with a picture of the card in the computer in frame, and the box and receipt, just to register the warranty.

Assholes.
