From the photo, they look pretty easy to swim under. Just a waste of money, plastic and rusting metal for posturing more culture wars.

The only free alternatives are dogecoin or WSB? Wtf? Who the hell decided this... oh yeah. We all know who.

This looks like an illustration or AI, did you put a filter on it?

I wasn't directly attacked but my friend and I had the same experience in our 60% Trump area.

We weren't together when each incident happened, but they're so similar I'll describe them together.

We were just at the checkout: me at a convenience store; my friend at a major grocery store chain.

So, we couldn't reasonably move away. We had to stand there to pay for our purchases.

An old man encroached my space; an old woman encroached my friend's space. We both politely asked them to step back for social distancing, and they refused.

I wish I had my friend's ability to think and speak on his feet. After he checked out, he told the old lady "I asked for you to do something, that cost you nothing. All you had to do was take a few steps back. I hope in the future, if you ask someone the same, they treat you like you did to me."

As for me? Even though I just said my request and didn't respond further, the guy was a huge jerk who tailgated me for several miles in his huge pickup truck. Like headlights in my mirror tailgating... during the day.

Who tf cares that much? Honestly.... just take a few steps back. Doesn't cost you anything, like my friend said.

The day after the 2016 election, I sent an email to the guy who contracts most of my services. He's also one of my best friends. It was in response to a job we were working on, so I cc'd his assistant.

Basically said I was disappointed about the outcome of the election, then got into the job specifics.

From his response, I knew I fucked up. He just said he was glad the election was over.

I never liked his assistant anyways, but I looked up her voter registration and she's Republican. And she's totally the Trump type, though I hadn't thought about it before.

She's been pretty much on the warpath for me ever since. I provide a great service at a good price, so she keeps me around. Plus some clients know me and would possibly revolt if I were taken off their jobs. I think she's been disparaging me to them for any misstep that I make.

I suspect she asks me for quotes and gives projects out to anyone who bids lower.

This was never the case with my friend; if I made a bid too low or too high he'd ask me to requote it. Yes,** if he thought my bid was too low, he'd tell me to charge more.**

Not so with this monster. She's nickle and diming me for everything.

And now my friend's health has taken a turn for the worse, and she's in charge.

God I wish I never sent that stupid email.

I bet it looked amazing on you! I hope you'll find a worthy replacement.

I bought like 10 of these at Habitat for Humanity and gave them out during a fly outbreak. Some of the neighbors looked at me weird (granted it was the first time I met them) but I'll swear by these things. I hate killing bugs but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

Love it. Last sentence especially.

Wtf is uber ambulance?

And thanks for your service.

Christie is on the warpath for Trump. Trump gave him covid while Christie was helping him prepare to debate Biden; Trump didn't tell anyone he had tested positive.

Christie was hospitalized and in intensive care for a week. Iirc he was in the hospital for a month total. He was so sick, at one point he said his goodbyes to his wife.

When Trump finally called Christie in the hospital, he didn't ask how he was doing or anything, he just told Christie not to tell anyone he gave him covid.

So now Christie is PISSED and wants to tear Trump down.

Christie is horrible, especially for supporting Trump in the first place, but he can think on his feet and whip out some zingers. Pass the popcorn, I'm here for it.

Ok, fuck it, we'll do it live!
