    My wife works for MD Anderson, and she and the other hundreds of coders are all wfh.  They were notified today that the state may cut off funding if MD Anderson doesn’t bring everyone back to the office. There will certainly be many that can’t afford to say no on day 1, but there will be many that quit within the first few weeks. Will be a CF, and the end result will result will probably be that mda uses contractors that wfh at a higher cost at least for the near term. Not to mention all the money they’ll have to start spending on elec, water , cleaning crews, maintenance, etc. 

    What the hell is the obsession with RTO?

    Victoria and all the surrounding counties are hard core MAGA. Good for them, that entire area is heavily dependent on govt checks 

     

    VICTORIA, Texas - The Department of Government Efficiency cuts could mean the closure of the Social Security Administration office in Victoria.

    The DOGE website shows the Victoria office is listed under lease terminations.

    Uh, I have more than a few older relatives there. None are Republicans in fact one of them olds may or may not have dragged down a large Trump sign with his truck a few years ago.

    You know, wishing bad things won’t increase the chance they happen. 

    No but it speaks to sentiment and privilege.

    I am. We want suffering and pain. We voted for it. We celebrate it when it’s visited on “the other.” We are incapable of understanding how stupid awful it is until the leopards start eating OUR faces.
    Fine. I won’t root for the leopards to eat our faces.
    Instead, I’ll root for us just marching towards our authoritarian future. Where - and I’ve got bad news for you - the leopards FEAST.
    You can choose pain now, or you can choose unending pain later. Those are the options. They suck.

    You just said, your children are no longer in America so it's okay to wish terrorism and death on America.

    Bro, just stop.

    I’ve already gotten my kids out of this shithole country, and have ordered them under no uncertain terms NOT to come back and fight for it.

    LOL

    Okay, now it's time to wish terrorism on Americans.

    Listen to yourself.

    I just embarrassed some Jeff Bezos looking prick out of Otherside Bar in Chicago and got a shot. I don’t drink, but I do, so that was the best skrewball I’ve had in 4 months.

    He was Gen X so I’ll get negged

    So…You’re ok with the regime continuing its rampage unabated - culminating in irrevocable authoritarianism - because the American people just haven’t been hurt enough to spur them to action. Noted.
    And NOW you’re worried about stochastic terrorism. FFS, that’s a foundational tactic of our current regime…but we’re just supposed to hope and wish for rainbows and puppy dogs.

    No bro, I am asking you to take the first step.

    Lead by example or just talk shit on the internet.

    Sure you do. Because insufficient, measured, slow-drip cruelty and suffering won’t trigger any response in time. And then, when it’s too late to stop them (because all checks are done)…then you get the death and brutality, because they are unstoppable and answerable to no one.
    In this timeline, your only choice is WHEN the death and brutal suffering happens, not “if.” Personally, I’d like it to happen soon enough for us to have a fighting chance to arrest our plunge into authoritarianism (which always, 100% of the time, results in death and suffering).
    Oh…and maybe realize that the regime is not only FINE with Americans dying and suffering, they are actively working for that goal. Quit being soft. This is an existential fight. It’s already gruesome.

    Yeah. Like you are really going to really do anything other than promote stochastic terrorism.

    Fucking commit violence yourself or Fucking shut up!

    I mean, how can I figure out how to short the 2025 version of Canter Fitzgerald?

    My recommendation is too execute every person with a law degree.

    Americans are going to have to suffer if we’re going to have any chance of surviving as a Republic. That’s a cold hard truth. You need to absorb it.
    I never, ever, ever wanted it to be that way. I’ve rung every alarm bell I could imagine to warn against us reaching this juncture, I’ve actively worked against it in my personal and professional life…but here we are.
    Tell me that something other than massive pain and suffering will get us to alter our plunge into fascist authoritarianism - but you have to have a credible take when you do so. And…you know you can’t muster one up.
    It fucking sucks.

    This is crazy talk. Trump policies will generate enough economic pain, nobody needs to wish for death and violence.

    How so? Seriously…you are one of our former allies. Why would you continue to expose yourself to risk by sharing intel with your stated enemy? It’s just fucking common sense. Any gesture of help to the US is seen as vulnerability and weakness, and a point of attack by the American regime. Why would you expose yourself like that?

    Because you are hoping for Americans to die in a terrorist attack. That's crazy thinking. I understand the logic but you are expressing the exact thing that you oppose, a lack of empathy.

    At this point, I am about to the point of hoping that 1) there is intel out there about a terror attack or somesuch against the US/Americans, 2) one of our FORMER allies has that intel, and 3) that FORMER ally does not share the intel with us because....why would you share intel with an entity that has openly stated that you are the enemy now?

    And when it results in dead Americans, that is 100% on Trump.  Alienate all of your friends, expect no favors or help from them.  That's how it works in the purely transactional paradise he wants to create.  It leads to dead Americans.

    You need to take a Xanax or start smoking weed. You are going off the rails. This is crazy talk.

    Shit is getting fucking crazy.

    I recently talked to a married couple I know that both work for the V.A. They were both on vacation together when the "Reply with what you did last week or be fired" email was sent out. When they returned to work on Monday there were emergency voice mails left stating that they need to respond to Musk's email.

    They are both veterans and have been with the V.A. for years and both have already lost staff with the initial round of firings.

    I mean I'd prefer to live in northern Italy regardless, so hopefully that happens.

    I have an employee that recently moved to Turin in northern Italy. He rents a three bedroom apartment outside of the city for 1500 euros. That's a pretty affordable price.

    That's the great thing about honky . . . it's for everyone to use.

    Actually, someone in here gave me shit about using the term honky a few years ago and they were a member of the liberal cabal.

    Since then I've learned that it's best to just say "Fuck You Honky."
