Down the thread someone points out one of the kids' other clients is a private school - their parents are on the school's board.

I bring this up because there's something to be said here about a situation where most of the world is on lockdown and meetings and conferences have to be done via the internet, and then what happens when our primary means of telecommunications are all corporate-owned with particular ideological interests that allow them to exercise censorship?

The sad thing is that in most of those "the kids selfmade themselves into millionaire at 20" i am ready to bet that it's also the parents that pushes the newspaper to publish those poo poo articles so they can float their own kid "totally self-made" success to the face of their "friends". So natural, totally not "capital pushing capital" artificial!

Trump's answer is atrocious, but I want to focus on the reporter asking about what would happen if the election ends in a draw.

Do Trump and Biden become co-presidents? Do they switch off every month? Everyday?

Odd Couple-esque comedy where Biden and Trump have to be president together and find someway to co-exist in the White House (where they both live now, but there wasn't room for their families so it's just them now)

I call it, The West Wingnuts, coming to NBC This Fall.

the precedent was clearly established in 2000 that if the election seems to be a draw or too close to call definitively then the democrat gives up and fucks off and the republican assumes office

Ties go to Congress. House picks the President. Senate the VP. House votes per state delegation instead of by member. So even though Dems hold the majority they may not have the votes.

The thing is something* in the construct of the USA broke. Or it never existed and never was really tested. Or it did and it was broken recently. Or it was broken long ago and 911, the iraq war and the empty promises (HOPE!) of one Barack Hussein Obama finally destroyed it completely. Maybe the American Dream was always an obvious lie and it just finally became ridiculous to continue to deny it. I mean a nation conquered by murdering the natives, built on the back of the slaves, fueled by war and profiteering worldwide, the SHINY city on the mountain and best hope of mankind ? The temperature is rising, the water level will follow suit, most animal life will die and mankind is hosed and condemned to live in a hell of some oil companies execs making.


*some kind of really stupid make-believe optimism.

you see charges were not brought because of the symbolic connection between the body in car and breonna in the bed, both subject to and reliant on jamarcus to move them through the world, and in that act, that becoming, surrendering their self-motion, literally their autonomy and ultimately their life. the grand jury found this parallel imagery a compelling argument against indictment under the well precedented "smart people just view everything as consumptive art criticism and say 'by all means', right? ps its the black guys fault" criteria
