Yi plays dumb, or at least I hope he is not so hopelessly ill informed as his questions suggest.  It's a bad imitation of a Socratic dialogue.

In several surveys, the overwhelming first choice for what makes Canada unique is multiculturalism. This, in a world collapsing into stupid, impoverishing hatreds, is the distinctly Canadian national project.

I enjoy pleasant company.

This is obviously not true, given that you're here  :lol:

The Minsky Moment

Quote from: Admiral Yi on July 15, 2025, 08:57:04 PMI don't know what Cuomo did that was inappropriate.

How about the time he set up a commission to probe corruption and then quickly disbanded it when it issued subpoenas to his allies?  Does that count as inappropriate?
We have, accordingly, always had plenty of excellent lawyers, though we often had to do without even tolerable administrators, and seen destined to endure the inconvenience of hereafter doing without any constructive statesmen at all.

For a NY politician I'd be more worried if he wasn't corrupt  :P

Quote from: garbon on July 16, 2025, 06:12:45 AMOh calling me angry was just you projecting?

It felt odd that you needed to know the exact specifics of how he sexual harassed women.

No, me calling you angry was me expressing an opinion.

At least someone is having fun.

Newsom says California will draw new electoral maps after Trump 'missed' deadline


Quote"DONALD 'TACO' TRUMP, AS MANY CALL HIM, 'MISSED' THE DEADLINE!!!", Newsom's office wrote on social media. "CALIFORNIA WILL NOW DRAW NEW, MORE 'BEAUTIFUL MAPS,' THEY WILL BE HISTORIC AS THEY WILL END THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY (DEMS TAKE BACK THE HOUSE!)".

"BIG PRESS CONFERENCE THIS WEEK WITH POWERFUL DEMS AND GAVIN NEWSOM — YOUR FAVORITE GOVERNOR — THAT WILL BE DEVASTATING FOR 'MAGA.' THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER! — GN," reads the post.
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

Gavin Newsome wants to be President and be this big Democratic leader so bad. I kind of admire his hustle and determination. It is too bad he is so obviously a sleezy dude.

An effective sleezy dude kinda be great considering everyone else is either very old or too young.

I think we're at the point that character is irrelevant, if he can be effective in rallying the base, so much the better. The left can't afford to be choosy anymore.

Sure. But I don't think anybody is buying it. I don't think he is rallying people around him. I don't think Democrats and Independents think much of him.

And I kind of get the suspicion he is silicon valley's man and not really a leftist.

Ultimately I will support him if he does prove popular. Just because...well just about anybody is preferable to the Republicans.

Quote from: Admiral Yi on August 13, 2025, 09:24:30 AMIn what way is he sleezy?

It doesn't feel like he means it. He has a real used car salesman thing going. But garbon has a lot more experience with him than I do.

But hey if he wins over everybody else I am on board.

You'll be lucky the dems get one who manages to stop democratic backsliding.
