The President said in a social media post

Imagine doing all this damage from a toilet.

Looking forward to talking with people tomorrow and learning why they are there. There’s an entire dartboard of shit to be pissed off about, and I’d bet it often differs from my grievances or what you hear most on Lemmy.

You cannot get water from southern Oregon into California by any practical manner. Same as the person you replied to, the Central Valley and coastal regions are inaccessible except from the Sierra Nevada or Colorado River.

Much of the agricultural land would be fine. However the population centers in SoCal would have to make drastic cuts without the Colorado River.

8th grade me jealous the snipers on the Lincoln Memorial had a better view of the fireworks.

The Department of Education currently manages a student loan debt portfolio of more than $1.6 trillion.  This means the Federal student aid program is roughly the size of one of the Nation’s largest banks, Wells Fargo.  But although Wells Fargo has more than 200,000 employees, the Department of Education has fewer than 1,500 in its Office of Federal Student Aid.  The Department of Education is not a bank, and it must return bank functions to an entity equipped to serve America’s students.

Move student loans to private banks! There it is.

Interesting. I prefer hyphens to improve readability

No I generally have to seek out UHT milk if needed.

I’ve seen a couple mentions of YouTube in this thread. Not sure if this is source inspiration of your meme, but in case…

The Roku TV YT app has been heavily enshitified in the last 6-8 months. Keep in mind, ads on this format (CTV) typically run $12-35 per 1,000 views.

They are bit rate throttling content and it most commonly occurs on content one year or older. YT has a dismissible call to action to upgrade to premium to remove this experience.

When you pause, the app shows a display ad sidebar to the paused video.

When the TV goes into initial sleep mode after a longer pause the YT app will lose the current video and land you back on the home page.

My experience is with using the YT app on Roku TV unauthenticated.

No shame in ~8 year old Reddit threads. It’s where all the organic content is!

Back when Pelosi was pushing the Affordable Care Act she came on KQED and railroaded the host, basically just ignored all the questions to deliver the party line. I was bruh this is your home base and acted like it was hostile territory.

Pelosi has been a huge fundraiser and leader for the Democrats, but might as well live on planet Mars when it comes to understanding working class people, even in the Bay Area.

We need a leadership vacuum in the Democratic Party to even hope of changing anything significantly.

Are you even real?

Leaving a comment here to look back when there is body cam footage and/or more details.

The fact that this person participated in an insurrection does not excuse a killing by police or give me joy in the outcome.

From a purely consumer perspective, fast food prices increased to the price territory of superior fast casual and independent restaurants while being significantly lower quality.

How did this happen without the other options increasing prices at the same rate? McDonalds lost their value proposition and eaters adjusted.

People didn’t stop ordering burgers, but they can get a great one over McD’s for maybe 20% more cost.
