you hit the nail on the head. Americans believe the book still works. you can go in various threads be it on lemmy, piefed, reddit, etc and still the rhetoric "remember people, vote them out in the midterms!" is still being posted. Meanwhile a Democratic Rep from Arizona who DID win is STILL waiting to be sworn in. So the Republican Party/Current Dictatorship is clearly showing the American people that voting doesn't matter. that they can simply block people who did win via votes from doing their jobs. Americans still don't understand that. They still firmly believe that they'll win the midterms by a landslide but...what then? the republican party can simply and president can simply say "nah, we're good" and just stay in power. whose to stop them? and the current administration is hedging on that bet.

but...they're not even signed.

They're essentially "local jobbers" or doing the indie circuit and they're demanding they go over? Neither of them are even any good.

Add to the fact that AEW, currently, is building a womens tag division thus you need a team like Tay Melo (who literally just came back from pregnancy) and Anna Jay to look strong as they were pretty much the first womens tag team before the damn division even existed. Both of whom have also been with the company since pretty much day one.

Shit if I were TK I'd sign Hyan and Maya World just to stick it to Alize and Nixon because Hyan and World understand what's going on and are more than willing to do the job. Add to the fact they stepped up at the last time to do said job. you want workers like that around.

I'm not an American but I can kinda understand why. Gotta tow that line. A good chunk of Americans are on the verge of homelessness and all their healthcare is tied directly to their employment. So rioting, looting grocery stores, etc runs a risk of not only being arrested or killed but also losing their jobs and thus losing their healthcare. The US Government has done a brilliant job over the decades of establishing a system preventing people from revolting.

Now one can argue that other countries would revolt and they'd also lose said things mentioned above because how can you get healthcare if you're actively fighting the system that provides it? But Americans don't know that. They've been conditioned to, again, tow the line.

Add to the fact there's zero leadership for said revolt. Literally none. This isn't like Black Lives Matter where there was an organization rallying everyone. I mean the proof is in the pudding just look at the No Kings protests. when do those happen? on the weekend, on a Saturday, when the vast majority are off work.

Now if those protests happened at 11am on a Tuesday I'd be impressed, but as it stands right now? that ain't happening any time soon. They need leadership, they have none.

just upgraded my instance. pretty good, very smooth and yay animated profile avatars!

no, they're not.

ugh I know. In hindsight I would have never bought it.

yes if they want you back you NEED to demand higher pay. Many companies, even some of my clients, are trying to pull the "we need you back but we're going to pay less than what we previously paid you" bullshit thinking devs will be desperate enough to take it.

ugh I wish I could but my Laptop set up says "no, you can't." discrete Nividia GPU with onboard AMD GPU and gaming on x11 is a no go for me. So my only choice is wayland :/

I wish Layton was still alive...

I mean what choice did we have? we didn't. It was either a conservative in a liberal furry suit, A wanna-be apple munching trump, or a guy that has never had an original thought pass through his head.

We were fucked. we realized we were fucked. And we decided the fake liberal was the way to go. Canadian politics are so fucked our choices are conservative, ultra conservative, or a weak wannabe democrat party.

oh and don't forget they also want to give $1billion to AI development over the next 5 years.
