70% of The Party of Jade Helm believes the president should be able to invade states.

The new Reuters/Ipsos poll is absolutely brutal for Trump in every single way, but I want to take a moment and reflect on this little note about the party of Jade Helm.

I recently re-bought the same, I think Panasonic, inverter microwave after around 15 years apart and nothing had gotten better.

my most millennial internet complaint is that I find it contemptible when people post deliberately provocative shit and then get upset when people are provoked. back in my day being a troll used to mean something goddamnit. you didn't do this "whoooaa hey just a joke" shit, you accepted the risk

Maybe on the order of $5/yr for a typical homeowner.

Tax collection is fixed, so the tax payments that this property makes goes down, and everyone else’s taxes go up slightly.

They absolutely are at their core because left elite culture is American culture, so of course they adopted it, but the bizarro version of it.

For someone in the White House, this guy has such loser energy.

His next ICE order will be that they have to arrest every kid from his elementary school unless they come to his 40th birthday party and gift him a TMNT action figure.

Imagine being subject to a campaign of dehumanization! What kind of people would do such a thing!?!?

I believe the literature shows that startups with experienced founders (ie older) are more likely to succeed. Comforting to me now that I’m in my 40s, tbh.

What’s the failure rate on startup CEOs? 90%? 95%?

Do you know what the failure rate is on young startup CEOs???

No one in their right mind would trust an established firm to a college kid, which is why you never hear of a 20 year old being hired as CEO.

You guys are making up a hypothetical to be mad at. Maybe! Maybe not. You can stipulate your hypothetical to be whatever you imagine it to be.

I’m not saying having leadership experience automatically makes you a good mayor. I’m saying you don’t have to pretend like the job doesn’t benefit from leadership skills in order to make the positive case for a candidate. And pretending like it doesn’t just sounds silly.

CEOs have decades of experience typically, working their way up their org.

We literally are electing a CEO.

If you put a random person in that position, maybe they’re good at it, probably they’re not. Sometimes we get lucky.

It’s easy to make the positive case for a candidate without pretending being CEO of a large org requires no skills.

I wouldn’t say any of them had leadership experience to merit helming such a large org, I even remember that being a criticism of Durkan. I think Harrell and Murray both benefited from their legislative experience, irrespective of them not doing things I wanted them to do.

I don’t think “being a lawyer” is qualification for a job as a chief executive of a large organization either.

I think it is entirely reasonable to make this point separate from what reasonable qualifications are for running a 13,000 employee organization.

Okay, so you’re saying that a series of low paying jobs and being a college school dropout is enough qualification to run a 13,000 person organization with a 10 figure budget? Can you point to any corporations or co-ops with that leadership background?

So, like, was he a good superintendent? Not an excuse, tbh, but opens up a secondary question of how effective are interviews and screening at actually finding qualified candidates.

The implication, of course, is that we should only develop technology for the bottom 20% in any given situation.

They want you to know that they can shoot US citizens with impunity, just because.

The conformity pressure here…sure is something.

I’m out of the loop. What’s the context on this one?

Someone suggested we call these attacks on civilians "Kavanaugh stops." Because after a brief questioning you're free to go, right?

Which is a more common cause of death in America?

1) Shark Bite
2) Lightning Strike
3) Modern Apartment Fire
4) Piano Falling on Them

I wish this would be seen by normal voters in its unvarnished form instead of sane washed into "Trump again asserts Dems searching for votes among illegals" by media.

If a fight spans generations, then so be it. But the people who waged yesterday’s injustices aren’t my enemies because they are all dead. I hope no one takes their place or feels a duty to take their place as descendants.

OP blocked me I guess, but here’s the excerpt from the Klein-Coates discussion I was responding to.
