  • Wasn’t there a whole thing about the lawmakers not being allowed to sleep in their office in D.C. anymore which made it so less wealthy politicians would struggle to be able to afford to rent a place in D.C. until they started having money actually roll in. It would make sense that the politicians either rent or own a place near D.C. if they have to work there and can’t stay in their offices. If the property was owned in say Florida, Tennessee, Texas, Alaska, or some other state that doesn’t have income taxes and was claiming that as his primary residence I could understand why it could be cause for alarm, but nope. The place he lives and represents… And the place he works from to represent them.


  • A lot of it kicks back to companies as well. If every time someone interviews for a new job they are telling users they need to run their programs or even just the application for the interview from a Windows machine it pressures users into going back. I always see shit like that for stuff that is even just browser based. I prefer not to install zoom, teams, and such and just open in the browser, but ive run into companies saying their typing tests and other pre employment material only run on Windows. It’s usually false, as I never actually have needed it to install Windows, but it sows doubt in people who don’t want to take chances when they are already in a potentially tight spot.

    I believe the name was set to center, and the text is set to wrap by a set table width. So while it looks weird, it makes sense I guess.

    Yearbook committee: “Yo, they aren’t paying us for this shit”

    If they put “Don’t give up on your bad dreams” it likely wouldn’t have wrapped bad. You’re right it looks bad
