don't think that's their goal at all.

Literally their goal.

As mentioned (via Tom Warren) by [Playstation co-CEO Hermen] Hulst in the interview, Sony wants to tempt PC players to purchase and play sequels to single-player narrative games on a PlayStation console.

Oh, so you're not actually interested in the facts, you just want to stomp your feet and blame Biden.

Gotcha.

My opinion doesn't matter.

The union and the railroad thought it was reasonable.

The union and the railroad reached an agreement they both found acceptable.

The IBEW and BNSF Railway reached an agreement April 20 to grant members four short-notice, paid sick days, with the ability to also convert up to three personal days to sick days.

They asked for seven sick days, they got four plus three convertible personal days for an annual total of seven. That's a reasonable compromise.

So to recap this sequence of events:

You're mad at Biden because:

  1. A bill that Congress passed preventing railroad workers from going on strike, because it put the good of the nation ahead of the good of the railroad workers.

  2. Biden continuing to negotiate with the railroad unions for months afterwards.

  3. The White House and the railroad unions agreeing to a compromise.

  4. The unions voting to approve that compromise.

That about sum it up?

So you're not mad at Biden for continuing to work with the Union to get a deal both sides would find acceptable, you're really mad at the union for voting to accept that particular deal?

Except they did get those permanent improvements.

Even Biden sided with the railroad corpo's over the union.

Yes, because at that time further supply chain disruptions would have been disastrous for Americans.

And what happened after that? The White House continued to work with the Union until they reached an acceptable compromise.

The economy didn't take another hit, the union is happy, and Internet commenters can cry "Corpo Biden!" with no included context as to what happened.

The billionaire who inherited millions from his dad and lived in a gold-plated penthouse in NYC and has been sued multiple times for not paying his contract work really understands the plight of the working man, you know?

Take your pick

Hey buddy, my preferred third-party vote will totally matter this time!

You're seeing anti-Stein rhetoric lately because it's a Presidential election year and that's the only time the Green party tries to be visible.

I'm sure the two or three Green people at the local level believe in the party's stated platform, but at the higher level it absolutely looks like the party exists only to siphon votes away from the Democratic party.

 

A Warhammer 40,000 space marine is not just your usual sci-fi super soldier. They are hulking behemoths, 10 feet tall (and about 10 feet wide too). They don't move like people, they move like freight trains. They have the physical bearing of an industrial freezer unit and the emotional intelligence of a crocodile. They do not retreat and they do not surrender, and their 9-to-5 is fighting the worst things you can possibly imagine over and over in a completely futile forever-war.
