Although when they do get a speaker his name will be: Kevin. McCarthy. They don’t have anyone else that can get a majority and still be enough of a glutton for punishment to take the job.

Well I guess we get our government shutdown in 42 days because I don’t see the Republicans having a speaker before then.

Every government shutdown in the past has hurt the Republicans at least temporarily, so bring it on. Maybe a good six month shutdown will be enough to push Biden over the line against the soon to be imprisoned one. #burnItDown https://apple.news/AhhORkrLcSs-V8SrPRAn2NA

I guarantee that 100% of the “housing crisis” is due to rich speculators buying up property and other rich NIMBYs preventing zoning updates that would allow enough housing to be built, and 0% is due to immigrants. This is how it always is in this country - blame poor and BIPOC people for problems created by rich white people.

@Mhw23 all good now. New phone feels 100% better in the hand than the old one. I’m getting a case but will probably go back and forth between using it and going caseless.

@Mhw23 Yep. I’m in password hell right now. 😂 it’s a trade off. If I restore from cloud I can use the phone sooner but the passwords are all gone, if I restore direct from the other phone it takes hours but I get passwords.

I used to write a lot of fake Craigslist Casual Encounters posts and I definitely used the tactic of writing something in English and then running it back and forth through several languages in google translate until it was still English, but worded VERY strangely, just to see what kind of responses I would get.
