  So in a discussion about the big news of today, you are discussing… something that is decidedly not the news of today. Worse yet, in a manner that everyone expects is about the big news of today.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Did I break it?⁩ ⁨⁨16⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  Buh? You need 2/3 vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate to override presidential veto.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who came up with the phrase "coming out of the closet" to describe homosexuals admitting they are gay? Why not coming out of the kitchen or coming out of the bedroom?⁩ ⁨⁨18⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think it’s trust, it’s market dominance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When the American military founded Silicon Valley, do you think they chose the SF Bay Area because it was well positioned? That is what I am assuming is true.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Many suggest it was the Naval base that helped things as they tried to innovate, so in that case it’s because of the deep water port.

  Pollution was worse back then, look up smog in the 70s. We’ve introduced catalytic converters, emissions standards, etc. Most people now question why we need clean air laws because we have clean air, much like people thinking we don’t need vaccines because those diseases aren’t around.

  The right wing needs an enemy, so when the USSR fell they switched from hating Russia to hating Democrats. 30 years of Fox yelling at them really works.
