But then I saw that article about a different part of Arlington having issues and I wonder if it’s just round-robin sucking. 🤷🏻♂️

Our service was trash for years. Thankfully it doesn’t impact us negatively beyond annoyance, but we found packages were always given priority and attention, first class mail came… when it came. Might be a week between deliveries.
It suddenly started coming regularly within the last year.
I think it’s perfectly reasonable to say “hey maybe you should not do things in more regressive states and/or implicitly support an event that keeps getting skeevier" in response to promoting said event. But the level of outright nasty I’ve seen in responses to this are unhinged.
Shame the guy is leaving, he seems like he belongs there. He’s got the debasing himself in the court down pat.
No doubt, I was trying at humor. Should have asked the AI to punch it up I guess :)
I had thought people also understood the same about tough guys; real tough guys don’t need to TELL you they’re tough. But… *waves at current world*
Do they have that many eyes after all the ideological purges?
One of the lines that has never left my mind since reading @scalzi.com ‘s BEING POOR essay decades ago is “being poor is knowing exactly how much everything costs.”
I was never poor in the lacking a last-resort bit of family to retreat to, but I was close enough that I felt that line in my bones.
Oh yeah I forgot about that earlier bit. Not sure who he’s auditioning for then; I’m sure any firm thinking of hiring him is gonna be super thrilled to know he’ll blame them when he fucks up in court next time.
It was only a big problem when the plebes used it against the rich (usually dudes). Making sure you laid off the lineman who didn’t laugh at your ethnic joke is just the way things are!
I mean that’s sort of been their thing in decrying “cancel culture” too, right? It was fine that the shop clerk could get fired because their boss saw them at a protest they disagreed with, or whisper networks about what actresses not to hire because they wouldn’t take to the casting couch.
Oh that’s gonna do wonders for his standing at work I’m sure.
Guess it helps to work for an agency that’s bleeding people so quick it’d be hard for them to fire someone with a pulse. And now they have proof he’ll debase himself in court - surely he’ll do it for them too!
Good in the “makes me laugh as I mourn for our nation” sense, yeah
Well yeah, your honor, but that’s because I delete “hallucinations” that don’t help my case
I’m having a lot of Iraq war/gitmo detainee habeus rights flashbacks with this.
Kennedy really thinks he comes across better here
That’s a butt double! Saw a funny interview with her where they asked her to pick her own double and she talked about what an odd experience that is.
Funny, I thought how disappointed Mojo Nixon would be. youtu.be/37aYWI4dPZA?...
Takes some real Something to make this sort of statement while there’s a literal bombing campaign being waged against a country that took no overt aggressive action, never mind Venezuela and Cuba rumblings. Dismantling hegemony indeed.
Wow and he thought the ADL was too liberal IN 2022?
Personally I think you only need the first two and last four words but that’s my personal grudge #perl4eva
They’re just teasing all of the being together at Awesomecon in DC.
It can be hard to tell the difference between losing one’s own and the experience of engaging with people who lack one
My eight year old asked “what’s transgender” in the car yesterday and it took two sentences for him to be satisfied. Three if you include my tacked on moralizing of “if something makes a person happier and isn’t hurting anyone else, who cares?”
I Have Mixed Feelings is my family crest
My biggest problem with the felony murder rule is that it doesn’t apply to cops who create situations where someone gets fatally shot
Ahem. GRIFTING death cult. bsky.app/profile/unra...
Yeah, think I’ve changed my mind about taking the kids to see CHOMPERS tomorrow
