How does that have less than a million views? My team and I quote/use/reference it so often.

I feel like Trump’s entire point to this is literally to make the US more isolated and self-sufficient. While I get the point of the latter, this whole charade is making it very clear that the US should NEVER be trusted going forward. If such sweeping changes can be made by one deranged man’s pen, every 4 years the US could instantly change all posture and break every agreement on a whim. The US multi-tiered “checks and balances” do not work and no one will know what the US will do, near term or long term. This sends a clear message of “don’t do any deals with us”. Stability is NOT the US way in the slightest.

No one understands how he thinks… or if he thinks.

Meanwhile Puerto Rico sitting over there like what about us!? We’re supposed to be the 51st state!

And Trump knows pathetic when he sees it… after all he’s leading the US in that field!

As a “someone born in the 70s and 80s”, Hollywood doesn’t cater to me… or my similarly aged wife and friends. We go to maybe 1 or 2 films a year tops and only really because of our daughter. We canceled Netflix a while back and just don’t watch much TV at all. One of our 40-something friends doesn’t even own a TV anymore. Everything is just rehashed junk at this point and it’s depressing.

Two European-based cloud service companies, Exoscale and Elastx, tell WIRED they have seen an uptick in potential customers looking to abandon US cloud providers over the last two weeks

Are these any good? Are there others? As an American, I’m 100% on board with getting my digital footprint out of this country and into the EU somewhere, so I’d love to know!

45%! Those are rookie numbers!

I figured it was because the “Big Internet” was the work computer and he didn’t want to look up non-work things on there for obvious reasons.

But maybe that’s just because this is me in the comic.

The thumbnail has a man holding a sign that says “Make Racists Afraid Again”. I’m fairly certain they never were here in the US in my time (1980’s and on). They have gone through multiple states of empowerment, but I’ve never seen evidence of them being afraid. Props to France if that ever occurred.

75F? Seems too low for “It’s Too Hot”. Pool time and beach time is generally more like 80-85. Id be freezing my ass off at a pool in the 70’s.

And I’ll take a cold beer and lounging in the shade when the humidity isn’t too high and it’s in the 80’s. Extra points for a generally low amount of clothing required.
