And all the people who paid for a pardon.

One quick idea: give me a way to filter out Tesla. Let me see everything but that brand. Please and thank you.

Ah, I see what you mean now. Thanks. I’m trying to get my employer to allow me to relocate to the UK as they have an office there (putting aside Brexit and all the stupid decisions of late they have been making). It’s an uphill battle where at any point someone could veto the decision because they don’t want to have to deal with the headache. I need a bigger company that is willing to go the distance with the legal hoops. That’s usually a massive company like the ones you mention as opposed to a smaller companies that I tend to work for.

Where did you land? How much paperwork was involved in the transition?

I guess you missed the whole last paragraph I mentioned where we can do a general strike and start helping ourselves. But sure, whatever you say bub.

Is that written into laws? No. But you know who made the original government? People who decided to make their own shit.

We have more information and better access to new decisions. We can simply decide to start over collectively and start once again. We don’t have to do things because that’s the way they have always been (in our individual lifetime).

I was just telling my best friend that I think this shutdown is going to go on for six to eight months. Possibly to the point where the pot boils over and the government gets thrown away because it was closed for so long.

At least, one can dream that after months of bitter pain and suffering, we might possibly get people who care about others running a government. But that’s a whole hell of a serving of pain and suffering before we get there.

Fuck it, let’s general strike this place. Medicare for all with the govt reopen and all those critical services back or nothing ever happens again.

From OPs source, it like a user called kenistod posted it here.

FYI: They mention that they have a TikTok with the same handle. They were streaming in Portland using the same user name.

Not OP; just a guess: old.reddit.com is a way to view and interact with Reddit using the original theme (or closely based on original look). A ton of tools were built for the site to look for data in a specific format. Many users likely utilize this “old” Reddit due to using legacy tools. It’s a way to get people onto the newer product so you can retire old infrastructure.

Basically, an enshittification decision by Reddit because they need to make more money.

“Here are your medications, citizen. And here is your bag of cash to apologize for having to take our medication.”

Yeah, right.

Oh… I didn’t care to check it as I thought it was worth a laugh.

Anyways, I hope your day is fabulous, random internet citizen!

He’s dead according to a post I saw today: https://defenseofliberty.social/@MalcolmNance/114908783699392930

I feel bad for their children who likely had no say in moving to Russia. Bet they wish they were back home in the USA with Dad now. Too late.

Oh well… moving on.
