It is also a LOT easier to both post content and reach a lot of people via social media as opposed to doing both using your own website.

Once upon a time, in the long long ago, I could create content on my site and then automatically or semi-automatically share it on social media, where my social media followers would see it.

Tell us you don't know any old people without saying you don't know any old people.

I'm starting to believe that Joe Biden is exactly the president we need right now. Yes, he hesitates in speech sometimes. Yes, he's old. But in most of the world, age is actually respected. And most important to me, he has demonstrated actual character over the years. You can't fake that. Right wing jackoffs hate it when a leader shows character, and watching them make fools of themselves over Biden is an added benefit.

I think he's doing fine.

And free to manufacturer and own nuclear weapons. It's none of your business what I do a long as it doesn't affect you.

So long as you demonstrate that you can keep them safe and secure, I'm less worried about you having a nuke than the US government having one. The US, after all, has actually flash-fried children with the things before.

As for mandatory vaccination, the SCOTUS found in Buck v. Bell -- and has never overturned -- that the same principle that justified mandatory vax also justifies forced eugenic sterilization. It's not just a theoretic "slippery slope", we already slid down it.

20% of Wyomings power is from wind. 75% is from coal.

And 90% is from right-wing bullshit that the faux "cowboys" eat up because they think it makes them look manly, when it fact, they're some of the biggest welfare queens in the country. Their government ranks #5 in the states most dependent on Federal money, then they brag about not having a state income tax.

Are they also going to investigate why the owner of FTX was the second largest democratic party donor, next to Soros?

Will they also investigate why the CEO of FTX gave $24 million to Republicans?

"Bankman-Fried was among the most significant donors to Democrats during the cycle, distributing more than $40 million through direct contributions and super PACs. Salame gave roughly $24 million to Republicans."
