Man, to think that $260M could've been used in so many better ways to benefit society... Yet was instead used by a power-hungry billionaire to "contribute" to that POS
It's like nobody is even trying to kill him.
Will nobody rid me of this troublesome mollusk?
Lmao is this the norm now? We just write this shit on the traceable Internet? Forever archived?
Like the owner of Twitter who wrote about how no one took a shot at Biden?
... Jfc.. you're right. I've lamented it for years nonetheless. I guess I'm actually thinking "are people really saying this about the team that will actually use Prism (remember that whole govt access to internet thing?) to hunt down threats to their agenda? "
If enough people write about it on the internet, they will never find the one who does the killing.
Remember being scared to text your weed dealer? Was the FBI never a real thing?!
I won't ever let him live those words down. Why should he?
Anyone who thought or for some reason still thinks that Ginsberg and Trump align is an idiot. @ me, you're an idiot.
Ginsberg had a specific and nuanced legal argument that essentially came down to, a law should be passed to clarify the right to abortion. Ginsberg was pro choice. However as a judge and Supreme Court Justice she had a specific and nuanced opinion, but ultimately believed Roe v Wade provided the correct answer, but how it got there did have some shakey legal ground.
My cousin is a lawyer and that was his view as well. Framing it as a privacy issue is pretty shaky, and we need to just pass laws for it.
What is with this @me thing I keep seeing?
Spawns from Twitter initially, but it basically means "say it to my face."
For instance:
@[email protected] Your mother was a hamster.
Now there's a CEO to get that United treatment.
Surprised Boeing hasn't tried yet either.
