Red states can still do that right now, but don't. Let's focus on what to do right now, instead of the past.

This looks like AI for some reason.

Not a stone tablet in sight. Just people living in the moment.

They want to help but will hurt you and many others unintentionally. Someone holding out a red fire poker when you're stuck in quicksand. They do mean well though.

Except this one hurts way more people than it helps. So much winning.

Republicans want to send those arms to ICE. They want to use the military against us.

I had a similar thing happen with Best Buy. I ordered a laptop which showed as "delivered" but never arrived. In fact I was at home the whole day they claimed it was delivered and nobody even came. Best Buy had no proof it was delivered other than a tracking number, and wouldn't send me a new one or refund me. The employee on the phone told me to just call the police and report it as stolen. I escalated it to a supervisor and asked them to listen to the original conversation, and explained that it's not my responsibility to get the laptop - it's their responsibility to ship it to me. I also at the same time disputed it with my credit card. The end result was someone at Best Buy calling me back and apologizing for the employee's mistake, and my credit card company saying they refunded my money, as well as telling me I could keep the laptop if it ever arrived later. So it ended up working out. I just had to escalate it and be the squeaky wheel.

"Do you get to Turkey very often? Oh, what am I saying? Of course you don't."

Costco has sub par service at their tire center, but good prices. Recommend using their prices to price match at a regular store with better service to get the best of both worlds.

Switching to Linux to own the libs.

My guess is wheels would not have helped when everywhere is dirt and cobblestones. Wheels appeared when we needed them.

Sorry about that, Chief.
