Chu Minh Tofu — it's all vegan and I'm a pork-eater, but I love it.

Only ten mill? I'm surprised he isn't going for the BIG bucks, he's been SOOOO victimized.

Huh. Kinda surprising that there's a lawsuit, that this is allegedly against some rule. It's America, so I just assumed, if your parents are rich and you want to go to some elite college, of course you're extra welcome. Here, have an pillow with the university's logo embroidered on it.

Ha ha, I don't think you really wonder. (:

Yeah, there are a couple of hundred fentanyl addicts and ongoing sales of stolen goods, and other such problems the city can't/won't do anything about. But it's scary to suburbanites and the old and fragile, so now there'll be no bus stops there. Ignore the problem, just drive right past, but the symptom is solved — no more worried drivers or passengers.

With so many bums and rabble everywhere, what's weird is that it's still a busy neighborhood for small businesses — Little Saigon, it's called. There are at least twenty restaurants at that corner, 12th & Jackson, and it's gonna be a pain in my ankles to walk a few extra blocks to get there for lunch.

Couldn't happen to a more deserving chap.

How long was he on "administrative leave" (paid vacation)?

A for-profit business must put profits over people. That's why health care must never be a for-profit business.

Thanks — educational and depressing. I'd known the broad strokes, but hadn't known there was a name for it.

Here's one of the most corrupt, cartoonishly awful politicians of our time, making what might be his first non-blatantly evil statement: He's against polio.

What a kick in the victims' teeth. Commuting this guy's sentence is Trump-level corrupt, one of the more despicable things Biden has done.

[–] DougHolland 5 points 3 days ago

That's my take, too. I've done activism, and peaceful protests, and letters to my Congresscritter, and done it all for a long, long time. Years and years of doing what we're supposed to hasn't accomplished squat. Luigi's activism seems much more effective.
