The American Prospect has some really good recent articles about this. We’ve entered a new age of personal pricing. Companies have so much data on us that the price that I see when I visit a website is no longer necessarily the price that you see.

My Asus zenbook, purchased in 2015, is still going strong. They’re pretty affordable and at least from my experience have held up well. I’m pretty sure you can run Linux on them too.

Democracy Now is my main source

I also listen to NPR to hear what narratives the state department is pushing

“now been hijacked”?

Been a long time since once could say Dems are an anti-war party with a straight face

Ho Chi Minh City:

• Man Tu Vegan - Wonderful vegan buffet, pay what you want style
• War Remnants Museum - incredible, powerful, and devastating museum focused on the Resistance War Against American Imperialism

Hanoi:

• Temple of Literature
• Đồng Xuân Market
• Ho Chi Minh Museum

In general, eat lots of street food. When crossing streets, don’t stop midway, the motorbikes will go around you.

Easy. Threaten them. Remove them from committees. Cut their funding from DNC. Many many things could have been done.

You would learn more if instead of asking “what could they have done” but instead asking “why didn’t they do anything”.

They didn’t do anything.

Did Biden fight tooth and nail to push through his agenda? Nope.

So it’s completely reasonable to say that Biden allowed childhood poverty to double under his watch.

Similar theory to that put forth by De Selby

Kia and Hyundai skipped installing industry standard immobilizers in order to save money. The cars are incredibly easy to steal. Kia and Hyundai should be held responsible.

Ah yes someone selling a few dollars of milk is definitely the same as a corporation stealing millions. Ah yes. These two are the same.

In my early twenties it was nearly constant. It’s subsided greatly since then. At a certain point I think I just accepted that “there is no meaning, so it’s ok”.

So once you get there, and you start understanding capitalism, then that takes over as the most all consuming topic.
