Idk why some commenters on The Verge tell me to “stick to tech.” My brother in christ I do not know how to get the office external monitors to work. I have never owned a car and one of my most used apps is the compass app. Stick to what tech????

It ain't much better out in the middle of nowhere.

Locked Up and Locked Out This Black family has endured jail, threats, and violence in their fight to reclaim their land from a white elected official in their rural Texas town.

What started as a battle in court to get back their land has turned into misdemeanor and felony charges that could stick with the Williams family for the rest of their lives.

For context, the family members who were arrested are ages 48, 63, 65, and 67.

Wait, only one? They didn't get the rest? Sounds like the kind of sloppy medical work that he'd do.

Folks who say they want limited government really want limited democracy.

I guess this confirms I'm still not cool. I hadn't heard that one before.

It's pure marketing.

"You'll have to stay in shape by running on the gerbil wheel everyday."

vs.

"If you're good, and tough enough, we'll let you have 30 minutes on THE WHEEL OF DEATH everyday."

Well, even when I can't understand them they at least look pretty. Malayan text looks a lot more beautiful than a clunky San serif font.

How WA weed shops could be affected by feds’ new cannabis policy The U.S. government reclassifying marijuana could open tax breaks and improve security for cannabis dispensaries, some say. It would not federally legalize the drug for recreational use, however.

That the federal government is recognizing cannabis as a medical drug is a huge step. Hopefully it'll help ease up in banking and other restrictions on the industry.

It's almost like the meaning of woke is "Stop being a bigoted, malicious asshats." Damn kids these days.

Wasn't Blorbo one of the face sucking, mind altering "parasites" from Rick and Morty? Or am I getting that confused with modern politics again?

There's a map on the wall. Make yourself at home. Lobbyists are on sale now and next week alt right think tanks will be on special.

You must mean Harbor Freight.

Though I did see a link go by offering it for sale from the campus book store. That must have been leftist propaganda, though.

Well, good. If that doesn't prove the point I'm not sure what does.

I'm reminded of that scene in the movie 10. Every time someone farts they beat the dog. Israel needs to get on the couch and sort their shit out.

I'm rural. My choice was a years long contract for crappy, small town internet or StarLink, which is awesome. That has to make more sense than fiber every which where. Amazon and Boeing have systems coming online soon. Considering the players I'm not sure that adds up to healthy competition.

I'm not sure about this. I have to believe that AI fever dreams probably make more sense than some things they have buried there.

Living in Washington State I can't say I find this amusing. How are we supposed to cram in all the Starbucks now?

"Rights for me but not for you." The cognitive racket from that kind of thinking has to be painful.

You can’t denounce the J6 rioters and then say the Columbia students who occupied a building by force and destroyed property should be immune from consequences.

Yes, a violent group of psychos that led an armed insurrection in an attempt to overthrow the government in the name of a flatulent con man is the same as non-violent individuals protesting violence and murder

US poised to ease restrictions on marijuana in historic shift, but it'll remain controlled substance In a historic shift, the U.S. moves to reclassify marijuana as a less dangerous drug, AP sources say.

A step in the right direction.

From another article I read they may back reschedule it. Which you'd hope clears up a list of issues for too many people, legally at least.

No, man, I swear my deck would have turned out so much better if I'd had a tacticool level when I built it.

I assume, and hope, it's not tradesmen buying that stuff.
