Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
I'm debating going to my Mom's where they'll have the full eclipse, but most likely I'll just stay here where we have 94%. Both kid's schools are doing something so that's neat for them. I'd go to your mom's if at all possible, unless the weather looks unfavorable. People say that the difference be...

There’s some sloppy, frenetic, bad hoops going on between Illinois and Iowa State.

Re: The Baltimore Key Bridge collapse on 695
Mine is in that space in the driver's side door. If your car plummets from a bridge, it will likely go head first into the water, and it will sink to the bottom heavy side first, right? I dunno. Seems to me you want to have that tool taped to the underside of your steering column/wheel. Otherwise w...

Re: The Baltimore Key Bridge collapse on 695
Anyone else here have a dream last night that they were in a car that flew off a bridge over water? I guess I woke up before the car actually hit the water. But I do remember making sure to lower the car's windows while we were in the air, because it might not work once we hit. (I've been nervous ab...

I get that. But he’s a rich white guy in America. Him walking away scot-free is what’s expected. In fact, having anything stick to him is the exception and not the rule (because he’s a fucking moron). He was just going to the same thing he’s done for the last 40 years.

The fundamental problem is that for-profit corporations exist to make profits for their shareholders. Their managers have a fiduciary duty to do so.
Historically, hasn’t the (supposedly) ideologically neutral media been the exception rather than the rule?
