"Orwell’s message was this. That you must always, always, always call things what they are, and yet this simplest of tasks gets more difficult, to the point entire societies fail at it, the more horrific things get."

They're concentration camps.

This is what I am saying. Put the liars on the defensive. They're liars. Call the lies what they are, colleagues. Who gives a shit if they start whining about "civility?" They're fucking liars.
That's why I'm so aggressive, that's why I get in peoples' faces, that's why I'm always calling people out. Because you have to. You have to call things what they are. And these people are fucking liars.
It's on all of us

Not at all surprised. By the way, KUSI is the same station that tried to pick a public fight with CNN because the network didn’t run one of their segments lol
They tried so hard washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/…
Oh yeah and this is the place where the interviewer asked me out halfway through, then when I declined told me there was no job opening after all. Soooooooooooo

I'm sure I don't need to say this but just in case: Those kids cannot "just leave" the camps. There are locks, there is barbed wire, and there are terrible consequences for trying to escape. From last July: washingtonpost.com/news/post-nati…
In other words, this guy is lying, as is anyone who parrots him.

Regarding that story about the girl hiding in the auto shop, this is the facility she escaped from (and was sent back to.) miamiherald.com/news/local/imm…

#Rational thinking is the ability to consider the #Relevant variables of a situation and to access, organize, and analyze #Relevant information to arrive at a #Sound conclusion. Confine oneself to the facts as they are. Do not add to it with your #Bias.
@TulsiGabbard was referring to this one incident only: at a fundraiser in New York on Tuesday night June 18, 2019, Biden tried to back up his claim that one of his greatest strengths was to “bring people together.” 1/
Biden then used an extreme example of people with whom he had major disagreements but still “#GotThingsDone” within the Senate. But today DEM and GOP Become enemies. 2/

More palette cleansing #TailorSnarkWars

Curves: plus women’s wear

Female coded clothing is complicated, not just in our social expectations, but technically. As Algebra II taught us, conic sections & parabolas are more difficult math than rectangles.

Queen Latifah, 5’10”.
So: all that stuff about wrinkles in the body? Yeah, that gets more complicated when we’re talking about bodies that have lots of complex curves.

Part of the reason high fashion likes very skinny models is because they’re living hangers. It makes building the samples easy.
So, that tux jacket: Yes, it’s properly fitted, despite some diagonal pulling as she hands up the woman in orange (I forgot to write down who that is. Sorry.)
Note that her hem is right at her thumb length. Shoulders are wide. Visible cuffs.
A little gape at bust (real world.)

Watching AVENGERS: INFINITY WARS.

Within 120 seconds of the opening credits, it’s pissed all over THOR: RAGNAROK, making all the themes and sacrifices of that story irrelevant.

Why do I get the feeling this is gonna suck?
So Peter Parker is supposed to have a secret identity, right? Not anymore. A moron now knows that Parker is Spider-Man. FFS. The entire existence of Spider-Man, every series ever written, is now moot.
I’m twenty minutes in, and Bruce Banner is trying like hell to turn into the Hulk. (a) The last time we saw him it was hard for him NOT to turn into the Hulk, and (b) he was terrified that if he Hulked up one more time, Banner would cease to exist.

FFS.

Ok, I want to build a simple product this week and launch it. I am thinking of a bot that pushes a commit to a stupid repository on GitHub everyday in order to make it green in the span of a year.
I have to find out first if it is possible to create through official APIs and whatnot. Let's see...
Ok so I had a look, it can be done. You can create a repo and create a commit programmatically through the official API. So far so good.

Three commonly held but untrue views seem to nicely summarize this "report":
1. Selling your goods below cost is a success strategy
2. Being "big" means you cannot be disrupted
3. Government wants to save us from "market power"
#1 only produces a return if one can then raise prices and still sell big volumes *and* no one else can enter the market. How can firms "protect" their staked-out market space? Without government privilege there's only one way: by offering goods of higher quality at lower prices.
So to be successful, either the firm produces better goods or they're more efficient (lower cost). Neither is much of a problem for consumers. And if they charge prices above what consumers think it's worth, both the good itself and the purchasing power of their money, they fail.
