I imagine even if he dies during the term republican leadership will Weekend at Bernies him for the remainder of the term to continue to use him as a scapegoat for all the evil shit they want to do.

Which a stock market crash does in the long term. They are better positioned to weather a recession then anyone else and during a recession there is ample opportunities to buy property and ownership from those that couldn't weather it, further centralized wealth among the billionaires. In another way, think of covid, did you see many huge corporations go out of business? No, but i know a ton of small businesses that couldn't weather the storm and went out of business, guess who gets to replace them when consumers look for their wares.

It's literally always projection with this party. Anything negative they say is because they can't imagine anyone doing anything different then they would do.

Amen, same state where the governor is stalling a special election for an open US representative position because the district is left leaning

It's also a different type of crude, a lot of US refineries can't use the light sweet crude that the US mainly has, they are configured to use sour crude that opec mainly has.

Bad thing about putting disaster response to the state is that they can decide not to serve a city based on political leanings. Not that this couldn't be done at the national level, but harder at least. Gov. Abbot did this during Hurricane Harvey to Houston with state funds. Houston had been one of the biggest bastions of democratic voters during the recent elections so they rewrote their state disaster relief funds stipulations to severely underfund areas with high population density.

They're saying if you were the only holdup it doesn't matter. If enough of your semi-close relatives submitted their DNA, yours can be extrapolated reasonably accurately from that.

I think this is the last strike for me, where do you go from Proton, I know for vpns I'll likely be looking at mullvad, but what about passwords/email/calendar/drive?

I quite liked the setup for creating individual email addresses per service and used that heavily, which I assume will make this transition painful.
