Well, he is a member of the GOP, I expect nothing else.

Well duh, he's a Republican. That's their MO.

Someone should tell him to not take a bath with a toaster.

His bathrooms were built by someone who gave a shit (that probably didn't get paid what they were owed), so his outlets are probably up to code and GFCI, so that probably would just give him a story about how General Electric tried to have him assassinated so that Mr Electric could be president.

what do you think an effective so-called third party looks like in the us?

Well for one, they're elected to a national office where they can try to implement change.

i think you are mistaken about the effectiveness of the green party.

Which green party senators or house members have pushed for that? How many of them are there? What national office holders are making the changes you're looking for?

I've never been able to figure out how to use usenet. Do you have any suggestions on how to get started?

Audiobookshelf. I've started using it this year, and I've listened to it every day except for a single day since I started lol. Its amazing to keep track of my podcasts and audiobooks. My only complaint is the app doesn't do autoplay for podcasts but headset media controls work, and the web client autoplays podcasts, but my media controls don't work. Even with those minor complaints, its an amazing tool that I don't know how I'd live without again.

Because he's a consummate liar talking to entirely credulous people who gladly believe whatever moronic diarrhea that dribbles out of his lie hole, and attacks minorities because they're relatively powerless and his base wants excuses to hate those people too.

There are many jobs where the hiring manager already has someone in mind for the job (but they have to check the required boxes and pretend to open the position to any candidate).

I had a manager who offered a promotion to our department and went through the whole process of interviewing and whatnot before giving it to someone outside of the department who had no idea what he was doing and had to be trained by us on how to be a manager. It was really cool to find out after I bailed that he had the job before we even knew about the possible promotion. Glad I bailed on that asshole, that was the same manager who was buddy buddy with the office diddler and tried to run interference for him around the office when he got a new set of bracelets.

Agreed, but that's hasn't stopped people before...

Bots can view content without being able to post, which is what people are aiming to cut down. I don't super care if bots are vacuuming up my shitposts (even my shit posts), but I don't particularly want to be in a community that's overrun with bots posting.
