punchymcpunch posted:remember that movie where kevin kostner built a baseball field so that the ghosts of eight dead baseball cheats could end their eternal torment in the haunted cornfields of iowa even tho they didnt play in iowa and i guess its possible that one or two of em were from iowa but id be very surprised if they were all from iowa and then kevin kostners daughter was choking to death on a hotdog and her uncle (the guy from thirtysomething) wanted to get an ambulance but kevin kostner said no, no, the baseball ghosts will help her. and youre like yeah obviouslt they will, gently caress YOU yuppie uncle. but when you think about it thats loving ludicrous now this is some loving poo poo right here can we have an on-screen appearance of Lance's ghost nut

MysteriousStranger posted:no it was worse than that. it's hard to fire feds, but you can make them quit, so when they announced they were going to move them and a whole ton of them quit they got their wish of firing all the staff without having to do it. you can fire feds, but its a pain in the rear end and takes forever. making them miserable enough to leave on their own is the usual strategy, but when you take away the things that made them miserable via changes in personnel rules, you often can restaff fairly quickly. The brain drain is a big problem though, but having interacted with plenty of federal agencies the people who've been there for 20-30 years often aren't actually that great at their jobs and can be pretty serious impediments to regulatory progress. see: the entire loving FDA

docbeard posted:Yeah, they had some kind of "BY DECLINING THIS RELOCATION YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE QUITTING" form letter bullshit. that's exactly what they had. they can't fire them, also the move was illegal, but before that could be resolved a ton of them quit rather than moving to a red state rural poo poo hole, and of course the move was never going to happen anyways

if I ever run into Donald Trump Junior in public, I'd just heckle him by reminding him that he's a junior, just a kid until he goes beet red and jumps up and down in a stomping tantrum and shouts back "I am an adult, dammit! I am I am I am!"

what software are they even running that can do this? i've seen those dog face filters and poo poo, but they're janky and sort of jump around. How do you replace your face in real time while live streaming? my real question is why would you trust this not to gently caress up but the story is about it loving up. And thirsty nerds just handwave away the face lagging behind the head, or angle being off every now and then? is this just standard twitch streaming poo poo nowadays? jsut one of those cases where you're like 'OF COURSE it's happening, but also How is this the first fuckup that has occurred?

Gutting regulatory agencies via this method is like.. GOP-101. It's basically the most normal thing that they've done. Bush did it all the time.

I thought that cops were paid poo poo like teachers so you only get people who really want to do the job? Like teachers really want to teach and cops really want to shoot unarmed black people.

Schnorkles posted:the best bet would be to actually have people staffing police offices that believed in good things (lmao thats never gonna happen) but i am heartened that millennials really don't want to be cops this is a strategy that liberals talk about a lot but it actually doesnt work because people are shaped by the material conditions they are placed in far more than they shape those conditions. what you need is to elect mayors and police commissioners and das who are actively hostile to the modern war on drugs/iraq war style of policing

that said, state governments can't really micro manage what a DA and mayor does as much as the crazies want them to, so you'll get some high profile revocations of authority but generally solid progress elsewhere

Schnorkles posted:and also have enough people in state legislatures or governor's offices to give them the room to pursue these policies yeah, grinding bureaucracy is one of the most effective barriers to even incremental reforms, never even mind radical progressive reforms centrists think this is "good" because it means that the "bad guys" can't do sweeping reforms for BAD things, but lmfao they don't care about bureaucracy, processes, laws, or norms. they just have a bunch of "acting" cabinet chiefs ramming their agenda through and an army of chudges to rubber stamp verdicts on any cases that challenge it
