Every dollar printed affects the value of every dollar already in circulation. Where that money goes changes who feels it. Printing money to blow up and then subsequently rebuild infrastructure in Iran is going to hurt basically all Americans, although some people (guess who) are probably going to see their share of the pie grow even more because their assets are not held in USD.

It's all so goddamn stupid. If I allow myself to turn to illiberal thoughts I begin to feel like perhaps anyone who supported this clown should have their voting rights permanently stripped. He's the worst president in maybe 150 years. I guess Trump supporters should be thankful the rest of us are so goddamned liberal.

It's Loss. It's funny in a repetitive memetic sort of way, kind of like "The Game." (u just lost teh gaem lololololol11!!!1!)

It works well, until it doesn't. That first part lulls people into complacency. I rented a Kia last year that had automatic cruise control and lane keep assist and it kept me on the road far past when I should have pulled over and taken a nap from being sleep deprived after a redeye flight. Dangerous? Yes. Skill issue? Maybe. What I took away from the experience is that it is frighteningly easy to get used to a thing "just working" and forget about its limitations when it is convenient. I also learned that I do not want lane keep assist or automatic cruise control in my personal car.

Could you elaborate wrt Fedora being a shitshow? It's my daily driver and I haven't experienced any kind of instability and (to my knowledge) I have not been compromised.

Invade Puerto Rico. Got it.

Obviously the solution is to invade Panama and make it a US territory

What a coincidence, I was bitching about how far away his communication skills are from anything Sorkin has ever written a mere 2 days ago:

And to think i used to be mildly annoyed by sterile bureaucratic politician speak.

Edit: or one day ago as of the original time of the top post. Having a life is hard, I wanna go back to being a chronically online teenager with time to waste and the certainty that I could solve all the world's problems.

I think makeup is cool, the standard of having to wear makeup is bullshit. When my girlfriend doesn't wear makeup people ask if she's sick. It seems like a lot of work.
