if it leaks shit out of both ends, it must be full of it.
‘office space’ probably still lives…
in treasury department computers.
18·7 hours agono. we didn’t ‘bully’ them into dropping the 15 minute thing.
they’re still gonna do it–they just won’t tell you up front at the start of the call. and it will be because of reduced staffing at call centers instead of automatically adding a long wait time to every call.
8·11 hours agoi don’t have one. i don’t want one, either.
9·1 day agoyou can have (well, used to) eggs anytime… fried, boiled, scrambled, omelets, poached–whatever. but gram’s special deviled eggs were for ‘special occasions’ only. she always made enough, so yea. gonna eat far more eggs that way than i ever would in a normal breakfast or meal.
13·2 days agolike the fuckface ever graduated on his own…
oh, it’ll still happen now… just no ‘15 minutes’ announced to callers.
it will be the actual honest estimated wait time, and more than 15 minutes during customary busy periods…

i vaguely remember a health teacher in jr or sr high saying something like that (this would be back in the '80s)… “about 10 percent, that’s the same as at least three of your classmates…” (in that class)…
and then the students kinda all looked around, eyeballin’ everybody… as if they were counting… yup. checks out. one of them blurted out “that’s kinda low, don’cha think?” --this bit is why i remember the class. and she was right. it was low.

63.7% overall voter turnout nationwide in 2024.
five states with the highest turnout were:
Minnesota (76.4%), Wisconsin (76.40%), Michigan (74.7%), New Hampshire (74.4%), and Colorado (73.1%).
2020 was the highest nationwide at 66.6%.
more numbers at ballotpedia

he could have bought congress for less than half that.
amazon does a lot of their own now. even to my little shit town. nearest fulfillment center is in another state, 2 1/2 hrs away.
because they, the “conservative” maga nuts, want those bad apples in positions of power. those boys like to hurt “them”.
the only thing i sometimes wish i could do–snake only gets you so far on my nokia.
but i usually just carry a book when i go somewhere i may have to sit awhile. when i’m reading, most everything gets tuned right out.
if ~ $44b was the cost to acquire the u.s., and its ~ 25% of the global economy (un estimate based on gdp), he could buy all the rest, complete the set, and still have a chunk of change left over.
in case you really, really wanna go there and see that billion dollar body: warning: do not click unless you have good insurance and a puke bucket nearby
he must think he’s still twitting-out bullshit to game the stock market and fool investors.
definitely got some spins (ok, a lot) on my record player when i was little. i musta had all the records from the early 70s and they all got played all the time… unless it was the chipmunks, or snoopy, watching a ‘movie’ on the show 'n tell.
