I thought for sure this was Glendale until I saw the 2 bed 2 bath price. Though I suppose we weren’t too far off a couple years ago. Only thing it’s missing is access to the metro, which I think is coming around Olympics time.

You’re right. It is much better for your mental health, and just makes life better to be able to walk out into the world and have the spontaneous enjoyment of appreciating the surroundings, even when having a specific destination or errand in mind.

So LGBT people should not support innocent civilians being killed…. ?

What do people want here, LGBT to support Israel instead? LGBT people to just shut up? Or is this just a way to shit on Palestine more?

I agree with it all, except that politics is only evil.

People have been taught to avoid politics, and this is the reason our government is in shambles. Politics is merely people making decisions about YOUR life. By disengaging, you allow corporations, well-off people, and groups with agendas to legislate rules that affect your life, usually in negative ways.

It is to the point where now, 90% of congress are bought off corporate legislators, allowing billionaires to pay less taxes than you, which means less money for trains, for schools, for hospitals, for critical infrastructure, and less regulation on companies who have proven time and time again that they will abuse their workers, put them in harms way, poison customers, release products that kill or maim, enforce schedules that cause pain and suffering, deliver products by train on civil war era braking systems, maintain airplanes that fall apart in the skies, pay workers wages that do not allow them to buy food or pay rent, and take away your ability to protect yourself from them - all in pursuit of every growing profits. Profits that will never be satiated and which require taking more and more from you

Books are banned, divisions are sowed, minorities are attacked, protest is regarded as violence, healthcare is a luxury, housing is a luxury, homeless are despised, education is a mortgage, social security is attacked, and safety nets are cut. All to benefit the wealthy, and their corporations.

This is a direct result of voter apathy and disengagement. You don’t have to love politics, or hate politics, but a democracy requires participation, or else it becomes an oligarchy.

Until citizens united is reversed, and people realize their wants and needs will never be addressed by a representative who accepts donations from a corporation, with contrary wants and needs, we will continue empowering the few, and weakening the many.

We absolutely require a population who understands what their representatives’ are fighting for, more importantly who they are fighting for, and we need them to understand that these people fighting against their interests can be removed from office, and must be.

You can’t obsess over politics for your own sanity, but you have to vote, and have to fight for your rights.

But thats not the point I’m contending so I’m not sure why you’re including it. Your original comment that I responded to is says that going thinner leads to more problems. In the case of this thinner iPad it has less bending and rigidity problems than its thicker predecessor.

I’m not arguing that iPads can’t be bent, or that apple products bend less than other companies, I’m arguing that you can make a thinner phone or tablet that bends less than a thicker tablet or phone. Especially with a phone.

Because you can break it if you try? When would you be bending your iPad like that ever?

In any case, my comment wasn’t about the iPad at all, it was about the thinner iPad having better bend test results than the thicker iPad, and this video doesn’t disprove that.

I have no problem with that. There’s like a billion shows I’ve never watched, I can wait for one that is awesome.

I mean the train is on a track, this is tragic for the family obviously, but the truck collided with the train.

I mean the new iPad does way better in the bend test. There are ways around thin being weak, I just hope it isn’t a trade off for battery.

Billionaires’ space companies, however are a luxury. When you can afford to create a space company by paying your workers starvation wages, and evading taxes, in order to have your company subsidized by those workers actually paying their fair share, that’s not a necessity.

Yes bc obviously it doesn’t matter what trump does, his followers are coming to vote. And all of this media hyper focus on ‘what trump is doing at the podium’, and ‘fun new trump nicknames’ is what legitimized his candidacy the first time.

The biden camp on the other hand isn’t doing anything about his falling poll numbers on swing states, and having a ‘field day’ focusing on trump at a podium is weak and does nothing for him. Trump =bad only worked when he was president, that’s not going to get people out to vote this time.

You know this ‘wobbly podium’ guy is literally beating him in the polls right? The convicted rapist, who stole nuclear secrets? Ya, maybe we could worry about doing something about that instead of having ‘a field day’ about dumb shit, when Biden is older and just as ‘wobbly’. But no, clowns like you over here think everything’s just fine

Ya that’s a good tactic. Don’t worry about your abysmal poll numbers and swing state polling, point and laugh at the other guy before using lesser evil arguments and complaining about not getting enough ‘credit’ from young people. Also ban tik tok.

These are definitely things that get people excited to vote.

Believe it or not, there are ‘xmen fans’ who miss the entire point of the X-men completely.

I came here to make fun of how stupid these posts are. I was zipping tho nl

But the entire reason that this is true is because of a disengaged voter base, right? Like if you’re voting for someone because you recognize their name, and not because of their record we’re not paying attention. We need to take responsibility for voting, and realize that any representative can be voted out, and those who are against our interests must be voted out.

I don’t think any senators are incentivized to do good work just because they have to leave after a set period, they would still be incentivized by the donations they receive from corporations, and in this case may even have an opposite effect, of more daring corruption in a shorter period of time, knowing they have a shorter period to line their pockets, and that a new person can take the blame for their deeds.

Good representatives already engage with the locals, hold town halls, speak to voters, go door to door. Bad representatives still will not do this, because they are paid by corporations, and exclusively legislate in their favor. They don’t care about what the public wants, unless it is a culture issue they can twist into the terrible legislation they wanted to pass anyway.

Just my opinion of course, but I don’t see shorter terms leading to less corruption in any meaningful way.

Do you need a link to my previous reply to you a couple of hours ago explaining that I never stated that Boeing killed him, or that we would ever produce evidence finding Boeing responsible but that it is well within the realm of believability that executives who singularly prioritize stock price over human life aren’t above stuffing envelopes for pinkertons to make their profit obstacles disappear and send a message to others, as has been the case many times through history, usually with semi-solid plausible deniability but extremely coincidental intersectionality?

Is it common that you need things repeated to you multiple times, or does your brain just have a very short loop that it is capable of navigating before necessitating a reboot?

I’m getting the feeling you just need someone to talk to. I’m sure it’s lonely working as the Boeing corporate fuckpillow.

So he was a Boeing supplier? And Boeing doesn’t pay attention when Boeing supply auditors are giving depositions in Boeing supplier shareholder lawsuits or complaints with the Federal Aviation Administration alleging serious and gross misconduct by senior management at the Boeing 737 production line at the Boeing supplier?

Since you’re an adept at linking, perhaps you can produce the link where I state “Boeing murdered him with MRSA”.

You want a link to the comment I replied to? Which is 3 replies above this one? Do you not know how to scroll, or do you just have short term memory loss?

What was the company’s name he was manufacturing parts for again? Was he making parts for a Spirit Aerosystems 737 MAX? Or was it something else?

Yes it was dude, he was a quality auditor at a Boeing supplier, alleging serious and gross misconduct by senior quality management at the Boeing 737 production line. Making the case that this somehow ‘helps’ Boeing since they don’t pay attention to manufactured parts once the receive them, or to allegations made by quality auditors at their suppliers, is absurd.

I haven’t ‘obscured’ any facts, you just seem unwilling to accept that a boeing whistleblower doesn’t have to be a Boeing employee, and that Boeing is responsible for their planes.

Do I need to explain to you again that you can whistleblow against Boeing as any individual who has done work for Boeing and has information to whiseblow about, or do you think you can understand it this time. Being a Boeing whistleblower does not necessitate your being a Boeing employee, if Boeing contracts your work, or you do work for Boeing, you can whistleblower against Boeing. Hence he is a Boeing whistleblower. You’re Pro-corporate to the bone dude, speaking the way Boeing would in court as if this semantic distinction has any bearing.

I am using the facts, you’re arguing points nobody has even made, against yourself. OSHA launched a review of barnetts appealing OSHA’s dismissal of a 2017 whistleblower complaint with a higher adjudication body.

Is this something that generally occurs multiple times?
