So much of the morality we’re taught is really only applicable to our class.

Well, that’s why he’s qualified.

A point that may be overlooked when you consider how pointless this action seems to be to someone like the original shooter: They have opened the door to public awareness that this group is a viable target for a broad swathe of people who may be looking for a similar opportunity.

If this action does trigger copycat actions, it’s very likely they will be less refined. The one who tried to take out Trump seemed to be just as willing to target Biden. For someone who is just doing a surface level search, obfuscation can be effective. That isn’t an option for public figures, but may be an option for insurance executives.

For the assertion you can just get their info from documents from a publicly traded company, in addition to the above, the people writing the rules are being paid by the people who are potentially being targeted.

Why do you think that having coercive power over someone means you should exercise it?

On the other hand, why are you giving them unlimited money today? Can you really limit it enough that he wouldn’t prioritize chips and cookies?

You’ve already got some good advice but in no particular order:

1. You are much more articulate than a lot of people. You can read and write better than a lot of people.

2. You’ve been at least emotionally and physically abused

3. You know how to work hard.

4. ADHD is somewhat treatable with medication, at least improvable.

What that translates to:

1. no it isn’t too late, especially if you keep working hard.

2. the things you blame yourself for likely isn’t your fault. Therapy, when you can afford it, should be a priority.

3. working hard is so important for employment. Most jobs don’t require high intelligence. Working hard with a good attitude and working with people is so much more important for most careers.

4. learning disabilities suck. ADHD is hard. You can still learn coping mechanisms and find ways or a career that fits better with it.

Life is hard. It’s harder for you than most. It can still be worth living, but it will be up to you to find a way. I think you can.

It might just be the picture, but it looks like if anything the tie washes out a little too much relative to the shirt.

This is a very meta unpopular opinion…

Also, it is wrong. And unpopular. So I need to up vote?

Neither one has a goatee though

If it makes you feel better they’re super shitty to their paying customers too.

You may be able to get in at an electric utility, preferably public power or a co-op. They tend to need both low and high voltage electricians and engineers.

I think I vehemently disagree with you on principle, but it’s a point I hadn’t thought of before, so thank you for pointing out that perspective.

Try something like Wyndly. Same stuff that’s in the shots, just sublingual. Have to do it every day, but can do it at home.

This was the first and the one thing they united to do everything in their power to ensure passage in 2016.

Everything else following was theater and/or smaller scale quid pro quo. Those actions still have serious consequences, especially for reproductive rights and minorities, but delivering money to the wealthy is the one true gospel.

Microsoft makes its money from business and enterprise customers. Home users are a drop in the bucket.

Money from home users is from stealing data.

People are worms, stuffed into a meat sack with appendages that make it easier to put food into the worm.

My favorite is when the question starts out with “I don’t have insurance and can’t afford to see a doctor, but I have dandruff and it just won’t go away”, and the first response is “I know you said you can’t afford it, but you should really just see a doctor”.

Like, sure, homeopathy is slightly better than snake oil because it doesn’t generally have random poison in it, so getting recommendations for that is worthless. But that doesn’t mean asking people who have been through similar things for advice is also worthless.

the people of South Dakota, not the politicians in Pierre, will be the ones to decide whether to restore Roe v. Wade as the law of South Dakota

This reminds that although abortion rights are the most important result of Roe v Wade, there are other rights that were abrogated when it was overturned. It’s hard to say all that was lost, and those generally won’t be recovered with these efforts.

That is a good place to start your journey.

On the one hand, those are some jackasses that should be fined. On the other hand the jackass caucus is going to be forever trying to use similar measures as a tool to interfere with the democratic process.

That image is very hard not to down vote.

And it’s mind blowing that the two options are polling as close as they are.
