Vance sucks, but this article is ridiculous.
He made a joke referencing John Kerry; the staff was amused. No one cares about this. Vance has other actual weird shit he believes and does.

I know it’s the sources title but it’s a confusing one. For a minute, I was surprised that there were a group of Republican attorney generals blocking climate laws that were being pushed by the oil companies.
Turns out the title should be Group of US Republican attorneys general, funded by oil firms and dark money, blocking climate laws.
“Britain’s worst attack on children occurred in 1996, when 43-year-old Thomas Hamilton shot 16 kindergarten pupils and their teacher dead in a school gymnasium in Dunblane, Scotland. The U.K. subsequently banned the private ownership of almost all handguns.”

Woah! This guy does suck. But, why won’t your wife very reasonably tell him “no”? He’d throw a fit, but he’s asking an awful lot and giving nothing. You two will have to work more to support him… and that’s not fair. Is he going to be there for the next four years?! Does he pay some rent, utilities, and cover food? Does he have household responsibilities?
For all that is good, you need to convince your wife that this is a terrible idea.
Sure, but this article is a “Joe Biden Bad” article and immediately cites a report that directly corresponds to a Trump policy… without even giving any indication that it was a Trump policy and that the report was related to a specific time after that policy was instated… 7 years ago. All of this to show that “sanctions are bad” and since Biden has more sanction, Biden bad. If they’re not going to provide critical context, then they’re shitty journalists, they’ve compromised their credibility and it’s not worth reading. Any of their conclusions are suspect. I’m not even defending Biden here…
Also, Joe Biden isn’t even running for president… so what’s the point of the smear campaign?
I was interested and clicked the first source to find this:
As many as 40,000 people may have died in Venezuela as a result of US sanctionsthat made it harder for ordinary citizens to access food, medicine and medical equipment, a new report has claimed.
The report, published by the Centre for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR) a progressive, Washington DC-based think tank, says those deaths took place following the imposition of sanctions in the summer of 2017.
Summer of 2017… hmm… which makes me doubt every other word in the article.
Normally I would filter out other languages but… the non English speaking subs seem to be how I find out how a celebrity died. I don’t know any other word but I sure know what overleden means.
That plus trying to figure out what the German memes are trying to say almost fits as a daily puzzle.
(That being said it should be a feature if it’s not already)
Who decided that this campaign to suppress the vote was worth running? Imagine being this bad at your job. Worse yet… what donkeys are taking money to run this? I’ve worked some worthless jobs, but Christ… I’d feel awful about myself every day. Maybe it’s the same people that run the unending scams?
Glad you could convert your partner to “the way”! I’ve always wondered if it’s less wear and tear or not. I’ve been using mine for decades now (daily…) and I’ve yet to have any problems.
First time I’ve heard of ploopy! I’m due to replace my current trackball and this is extremely tempting!
Absolutely agree! It’s especially great for small spaces and I can even use it while walking around if I need to!
I too am a trackball enthusiast! I have the same mouse even. (Not that there’s that many to choose from) I never seem to spot our kind in the wild!
Nice setup!
I don’t know if I’m in the wrong circles… but I’m not seeing any of this… even on the internet.
I’m with you. Also, it’s not clear to me why people think listening to your friends means you suddenly are responsible for their problems. You don’t have to take on their burden, but you can listen, maybe offer advice, and empathize. You don’t need to solve their problem.
I love this stuff. Developers making an unreleased game freely available so people can see their art. They even threw in the source code.
One of my friends let me borrow heroes of might and magic. Through being lazy, I ended up misplacing it and it was either destroyed or lost for good.
Years later I bought him the whole collection on Steam.
One thing to note about living in your car… not having an address shows up an awful lot. You even need one to register your car usually. I was living on the road for awhile and used a mailing service for most things combined with a family members address as my official address.
So after a fellow lemming pointed me to the digital version. I threw 10 dollars away to find out… that it appears to be identical to the proto rom (and the gameplay footage).
Plausible more content was added or something, but the early gameplay is identical complete with the “you can’t use this yet”
So, the article appears to be a bit wrong in that… the game was finished ages ago… just no one wanted to invest the money to release it.
Oof I went to buy this and they’re charging a 10 percent fee for ShipAid Delivery Guarantee… I mean it’s a digital copy. What gives? There doesn’t appear to be any way to remove it from my cart.
(3rd times the charm… I was able to get it into my cart without the delivery guarantee. I have no explanation of how it was getting automatically added.)
Nice!
