How did I, a person with no sense of style, build better looking houses in the original sims game when I was like 10?

Think this is more embezzlement than money laundering. Not that either is a good thing.

Because Americans’ feefees were hurt by their fossil fuels being a tiny-winy bit more expensive (still cheaper than much of Europe BEFORE the war) so now this bill makes future fossil fuel projects cheaper and also means data centers have to pay for their grid upgrade costs, so that should make electricity cheaper in theory.

Y’all were crying about your fuel and other energy prices being relatively cheap instead of the usual nearly-free prices you’ve always had. Then you’re surprised that a change is pushed through to make it cheaper again?

Cry me a fucking river, Americans. You all wanted this.

AIPAC apparently spent 9 million on campaign ads for her to avoid getting a Muslim in her seat. No idea if they’ve been “paying her” directly in any way.

Sooooo we going to see another live execution?

Centrism won 2020, kinda. Exactly because of the president who pissed everyone off first

Family friendly means christian and conservative.

As I understand news would be his arse being clean, not him shitting himself

Was it 65 just before the midterms or 65 when the current congress got elected?

Because it’s going to be 65 by the next election cycle if it’s 63 right now. That would mean no real progress if the 65 was just before midterms.

Not really, you get to spend extra years not producing labor other people can retire on (the entire goal of the economic system basically) before starting your duty to the elderly and if you choose a good degree, you’ll be rewarded for it quite well once you’re part of the leech/retirement class. Balances out.

Rent-free indeed.

How to get republicans claiming Michigan was actually part of Canada all along

AIPAC buys people in both parties

Of course, his voters will see it as dems being at fault for only passing bills that weren’t any good (Trump didn’t approve of them after all) and thus if dems get the majority in 2026, they’ll be at fault for everything that happened in 2025-2026 in addition to already being at fault for everything negative that happened from 2017-2025.

And they will reelect him in 2028.

Might’ve thought genocide is popular enough among the Israeli that there wouldn’t be any need to cheat.

Swiss-American. You’re still inflating American pensioners retirement funds if you buy their products, same as with all big American companies. With this one you’ll just help the Swiss out a bit as well.

The proposal, which luckily received enough flak to be put down, was that if the original owner doesn’t buy the car with heated seats, the next one can just get it as a subscription. So at least you’re getting the car for a little bit smaller markup if you don’t get the heated seats option. Though it’s still incredibly dishonest because it turns out that it’s cheaper for them to just install heated seats in every single car anyway, so why not just make them standard at that point and raise each car’s price by like a hundred euros.

Logitech went even worse than that, the subscription was supposed to give you… software updates??? Why are those behind a subscription? I don’t even use logi link or whatever it was called and I don’t see myself paying for updates to that. What kind of software could a mouse have that its updates are worth any amount of recurring payment?

If you don’t have car manufacturers of your own, you’re probably best off buying Chinese at this point. They will spy on you, but so does everyone else and with Chinese cars you get the benefits of slave labour and near-free lithium batteries, environment be damned. We can never match that pricing in European cars.

The other great option is to tariff cars not built in Canada and watch car manufacturers build plants in your country, that’s pretty much what the US and EU both do to protect the auto industry and it’s part of the reason all of the big German and Japanese manufacturers have manufacturing plants in the US for example. Canada’s a smaller population to cater to, but big enough for some manufacturers with high sales volumes to build their own manufacturing plants. I bet Toyota would easily do it.

Of course at present it seems more likely that you will remove the tariffs on European cars in exchange for us removing tariffs on some important Canadian exports. Still better than buying gigantic pick-up trucks, but our manufacturers are lagging behind with EVs since ICE cars are still cheaper to build than EVs outside of China.

Wish there was a goddamn alternative to MasterCard/VISA, or even a plan to create one. If I hear someone say Wero one more goddamn time…

Chinese UnionPay and Japan’s JCB are the only actual cards I know of that are globally accepted, though still not as universally as MasterCard or Visa. And I can’t actually get either card living in Europe. Not that I’d want a Chinese card any more than I like having my American cards.
