When a religion is good, I conceive it will support itself; and when it does not support itself, and God does not take care to support it so that its professors are obliged to call for help of the civil power, 'tis a sign, I apprehend, of its being a bad one.
Of course, it’s not an entirely unreasonable question to ask, and if they were asking it seriously, it could lead to some self-reflection and improvement.
For example, maybe people are trying to assassinate Trump because he’s made it clear that he approves of assassination as a political tool, and he’s also made it clear that he is a worthless piece of slime. Maybe Harris just isn’t quite bad enough to rise to the level of murder to a bunch off morons.
Also Harris hasn’t really disappointed anyone. I don’t think anyone who plans on voting for her believes she’s the second coming of Christ or any bullshit like that.
However Trump is not leading a political movement. He’s leading a cult. When you find out your god is just some asshole, you might snap.
Or people who know how minorities are treated and are therefore afraid to become one.
I’m white. This fucking turd doesn’t speak for me.
I didn’t have the option to have my bank send it in, but I printed a check for each kid each month to cover school lunch costs. I don’t know what it cost them to process the checks, but it wasn’t all that inconvenient for me to do. If there had been a no-cost way to load funds online I would have done it, but it wouldn’t have been much more convenient for me. I’m not going to pay extra to make it easier for them.
Donald Trump’s response if asked:
"I’ve never met J.D. Vance. I don’t know who he is. People tell me he’s a fan, but I’ve never met him.
they want to go back to pre-civil war
FTFY
If you want to avoid appearing to be a Nazi apologist, you should at a minimum drop some examples of the shocking things you learned.
Because Trump’s been an idiot all along. With Biden there was a decline, so they could claim he was no longer competent. Trump was never competent, so any decline doesn’t really matter much.
Neither did my grandparents. Likewise, my parents didn’t update their will when my children and nieces were born.
The attitude among all generations has been: your own kids inherit, and they distribute to their kids as they see fit.
I wasn’t in my grandparents wills, but I ended up with some of their furniture.
It’s the other end of the spectrum from “extremely normal”
Yeah, I meant “guaranteed”
the US doesn’t give their citizens the same rights as those in other countries receive.
The U.S. doesn’t give their citizens the same rights that the U.S. constitution has.
When people ask me why I like Linux, my go-to reason is my main personal machine. I use it for everything I do outside of work, including running my Emby server.
I built it from $500 worth of parts 13 years ago. I’ve kept updating the os and applications. It’s starting to slow down a bit after the last os upgrade, but it’s still plenty usable.
I am getting concerned about the spinning platters. As far as I am aware, Linux won’t prevent an ancient hard disk drive from reaching the natural end of is life.
It’s probably time to move on to a new machine. Well, new motherboard, CPU, RAM, and disks at least.
I can’t think of a time in my Internet life when “Well, duh” was so often the most appropriate response to so many posts.
We survived a very rough period about a quarter century ago that taught leadership the value of fiscal responsibility. It was quite literally an existential crisis. The lessons carried us through multiple economic downturns in the intervening years including the pandemic.
Regarding the challenging cases that are deemed too unprofitable by other institutions, our solution is to improve both the quality and the efficiency of their treatment so that we are able to cover expenses without compromising care.
I’m quite proud of the work we do. In a world filled with corporations led by over paid sociopaths, I believe that our (non-profit) organization is doing the right thing for the right reasons.
I work at a hospital. I have heard that another hospital in our city will transfer patients to our hospital because, we are “better at treating their particular condition”, that condition being “poor”
Been there, done that.
How about this: crank up the taxes on houses people don’t live in. Make owning empty real estate so unprofitable that it’s better to rent it out cheap than to try to screw renters.
Make it a crime to own an empty house.
Anyone who kills Donald Trump would be an enemy of the people, just like the other scum that fight to keep him from facing consequences for his crimes.
