that liberal bullshit that everything must be done respectfully and within the system as much as possible is such a fucking joke but goddamn do people fight so hard to make it seem like anything else is just as bad as the right. you're not winning shit by sticking to the polls and op-eds, meanwhile countless millions suffer under the violence of the right and the liberals every day.

the country will continue to collapse even if joe biden's dumb ass makes it in, so people need to start better preparing or shutting up and stepping the fuck aside. fuck the selfish middle class.

The noodle baking is due to there being a better suited candidate that was a former serious competitor in an industry that doesn't really exist anymore, not that a Japanese multinational has a presence in different industries. Cahiers du Cinéma is appreciated, though!

I wasn't really commenting on the rice cooking. :yeshrug
But I think I was giving some context on their continued existence. I started my post and mentioning Fuji before I saw yours so there was no relation.

Manufacturing Chloroquine really seem like a smoking gun too far though in that whole grift. :lol
I guess the riddle is to know whether it's a complete bullshit "plan" to justify public subsidies or something they'll really do. Not a chemist but with everything we know about Chloroquine it sounds like an ill-conceived plan.

Yeah, Kodak is probably still fucked and agonizing.

The best part of the article though is :

However, it turns out that Kodak representatives had just accidentally told reporters about the loan a day before it was public and forgot to embargo it.

Pelosi and Schumer met with Mnuchin and Meadows, hadn't realized they were still around during the recess. McConnell seems to be absent from these discussions?

Anyway they said it was their most productive session but that they weren't close. Afterwards Trump tweeted about the payroll tax cut that nobody likes.

Payroll tax doesn't do shit for the people unemployed. It would have made more sense if it was at the start of the pandemic with an 70-80% payroll. Then he would have crowned that he was really giving people their 'more' of their paycheck.

There a deal for Cheeseburger + 10 nuggies + small fries + small soda for $3

You can even swap the nugs for spicy nugs for free

I love these articles.

"Campaign/White House officials have asked Trump to focus, stay on message and pivot"

*next paragraph"

"But instead Trump acted like an ass clown and someone probably put a lot of campaign money in their own pocket"


They've basically now frozen the entire campaign for a 'reset'.

Unethical life/food tip: Chipotle doesn’t check your ID for on-line carry out orders*. They just put it all on a shelf and use the honor system. Don’t abuse it, but that’s one good meal a month.

You can use food stamps or EBT at most grocery stores, at least in California. You're right that some fast food places will also use ebt.

The one closest to me typically doesn't do that because it's half a block away from a high school and they don't trust the teens, but it's obviously different circumstances now.

Veepstakes stories must be so easy for reporters because you can find some mid-level donors or party operatives with no real access to the candidate and write them up as "party insiders." Nobody remembers later if you got it wrong.

Basically you get to be Chris Broussard.

All the hoops to go through to get on food stamps here isn't worth the effort for the pittance of credit you can buy shitty trash food with no nutritional value. It's much the same way that trying to get unemployment is intentionally such a pain in the ass in the hopes of people just not bothering.
don't disagree that we hate the poor but you can use your tanf card at any grocery store to buy whatever you want
