They were illegal when they got here, so they are still illegal. They have to go back to their own country, and re-enter the US properly.

Of course, when they get there and find out their own country is now a US state, and they can’t enter it, there may be some confusion.

Let me be clear. I fully support the assassination of Donald Trump, by an American citizen. I lack the skills to do it myself, and I’m not interested in losing my life to a ineffective gesture, or I’d do it myself.

My reasoning is simply that he is not going to live long enough to be tried and imprisoned for this, and if he dies of natural causes, then he will never have paid any price, suffered any consequence, or been in any meaningful way censured for all the harm he has done to the world. Only his death at the hands of an American Citizen can go any distance at all towards correcting that.

If he is allowed to go without even a slap on the wrist, then future generations can only assume that we, all of us, approved of his behavior.

Yea, I’m pretty sure that we can’t, and shouldn’t, recognize Iran controlling the strait.

We are going to have to accept Iran controlling the strait, though.

The word “tick” is very important here.

Our governing system is increasingly illegitimate.

I recall he ordered it from the replicator center. I imagine they had large replicators for furnature, then beamed it to his quarters.

They are focusing on issues they have universal condemnation, and are undeniably the responsibility of the current regime.

If you try to rally around big picture issues, you better be sure everyone seems the same big picture, and agrees on what should be done and how to do it and who should do it.

There are people who think the war in Iran is gong great. There are those that think it’s going poorly, but that we can and should win. There are those that recognize it’s a disaster, but believe that it was necessary, or at least desirable to take action against Iran, just not like this.

But everyone hates high gas prices.

I would assume they were placed on a bedside table pointed in the general direction of the fucking.

But still.

It means I think everyone else is an asshole.

I might be too, but I don’t think I am.

If they are closing the store because of the union, it’s warfare. If it’s just unprofitable, then I suppose it’s just impersonal harm.

It’s not betrayal, because they were always the enemy. It’s just class warfare.

Depends. If the chief murdered the guy, then that’s the restaurant’s responsibility for not keeping the chef secured.

At least I understand the words in the explanation.

But who the duck dislike being called a good boy?

Seems like other people got to it before I did.

I’m always curious to know how one decides who’s sense of offence is to be taken seriously, and who’s is to be ignored.

People have no sense of humor.

Sir, how dare you say something so accurate.

Of course I did.

Right, but that’s not to protect them from AI. It’s to protect them from us, once we come to our senses.

Because the people with money know they don’t have to listen to the little people.

We don’t even need overblown fears about AI killing everyone. AI is ruining students, ruining artists, causing massive layoffs, being used to monitor and judge our behavior, and is attempting to influence our behavior. It seems there are attempts to give these glorified auto-complete programs increasing amounts of resources and authority.

This is bad for most people. And those of us born after 1980 or so have no illusions that anyone in power is going to care about the welfare of the little people. They only recognize money and power. We don’t have money, but there are many kinds of power. I hope someone recognizes the signs, and changes course before it gets bloody.

Possibly not.

But “We know what he meant” when someone demonstrates that they don’t know what they are talking about has proven to be dangerous.

I wouldn’t hire a mechanic who thought cats traveled at miles per MPH. Why should I listen to someone talk about boats who thinks “knots per hour” is a speed?
