Nothing personal but every goddamn person that uses "nationalist" instead of "Nazi" needs to be smacked in the head.

They are hiding behind this cute little name that confuses people and normalizes them.

They are f---king nazis. Make no mistake about it.

nationalist = nazi

White, christian.. whatever. They are f-cking nazis. Every one of them.

is it really biden who disappointed you, or is it a structurally unjust broken system which disappoints you?

The counter girl hopped right up when I walked in and was clocking in to help me.

Me: were you on break? I can wait until it's over I'm not in a hurry.

Her: no, we're supposed to clock out when there aren't customers

Me: oh no, honey, no. That's illegal.

Her: 😳

Me: not for you, for your manager or whoever told you to do that.

Her: it is?

Me: it's called wage theft when your boss doesn't pay you what you earned. when your boss requires you to stay here, he needs you pay you for your time.

Her: oh.

Me: here, this is the office number to an employment lawyer, call her and tell her you need to come in to talk about this

Her: I don't have any money

Me: we're gonna get your money, you already earned it sweetie.

Via Angry Staffer:

By my count, the GOP has tried to reduce the salary of:

- the first Black SecDef (Austin)
- the first Black LGBT Press Sec (KJP)
- the first Senate-confirmed openly gay Cabinet member (Pete)
- the first refugee/Latin American to lead DHS (Mayorkas)

Sounds about white.

Jake Sherman:

>claudia tenney is on the floor introducing an amendment to reduce Karine JP's salary to $1.

@GottaLaff So white GOP Rep. Tenney wants a Black person to work for $1.00, aka the amount used to legally formalize giving someone nothing at all?

I thought making Black people work for nothing was 160 years out of fashion.

Really wish #MSNBC and other televised news outlets cared about the most basic grammar.

Rep. James Comer’s family business is shadier than anything involving Joe Biden https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2023/11/9/2204662/-Rep-James-Comer-s-family-business-is-shadier-than-anything-involving-Joe-Biden

(Also, argh! & for real, that’s not at issue! Why rebut moot arguments? The #fraud in & of itself was DECIDED as a matter-of-#LAW. All this trial is deciding are the remaining 6 counts: 1. falsifying business records 2. #conspiracy to falsify business records 3. issuing false financial stmnts 4. conspiracy to falsify said false financial stmnts 5. insurance fraud 6. conspiracy to commit insurance fraud; + the amount of disgorgement.)

Hi everyone! I am looking for a new role and would appreciate your support. Lately I've been working mostly with functional languages (#Elixir, #Erlang, #Haskell, #Elm) in web development, but I'm also passionate about programming languages and tooling (compilers, static analysis, development environments, etc). Let me know if you see an opening that you think I may enjoy!
