Well, the desk in the oval office used to have a simple plaque on it that said: “the buck stops here”.

Yeah, why the fuck are we lowering the flag for a goddamned youtuber‽

I don’t know. With everything that was known about Trump from his entire history, first term, j6, and campaign ‘promises’, you’d think he wouldn’t have been electable, much less actually win. But here we are, with a complicit congress and enabling supreme court (maybe that’s the other way around), and the wholesale destruction of safety nets, regulatory bodies and systems.

Seems like a somewhat valid use for RICO, moreso that what it’s usually used for…

You already know that answer.

Ahh, so another pedo, but this one is at least consistent with his rambling, incoherent plot lines.

Wtf did I just read?

I knew before coming into the comments there would be a pendatic with this argument

Not to mention: the guy that can’t run for president again (yet)

See my comment about NOAA weather radios

Ignoring the warnings when they say “extreme danger to life” for the river you’re in when your buildings and the kids you’re responsible for are in the damn river’s floodplain does not “make it difficult to decide”.

I’m not virtue signaling. I’m mad as fucking hell. Because I know there are actions that could (and damn well should) have been taken to protect those kids and counselors, and the rot began at the top.

I replied elsewhere, but I’m gonna stick it here as well for visibility:

NOAA Weather Radios go off like alarm clocks when warnings are issued. Loud as hell. We hear ours 1 floor away through closed doors with a fan and a white noise machine. This camp absolutely should have had not 1 but 2 of these in separate locations.

I’m the emergency manager of a camp. We have redundant alert and notification systems, a full All Hazards emergency plan and drill routinely for sheltering and evacuation.

No less should have been done for these kids. This is 100% on the hands of the leadership of the camp. Full stop.

I bring you the classic by Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie

Shaddap!

Late to the party but Verkada. Block their domain at the front door and don’t look back. The highest pressure sales tactics, cold calling everybody in the company they can find on LinkedIn / website / data broker lists. Started calling our board of directors at home and their day jobs asking why we weren’t returning messages. Verkada can burn in hell.

It really sucks ass when you have a Cisco voice system. I can’t even get a quote from my Cisco VAR to update b/c Broadcom isn’t replying to small quote requests, but are pulling shit like this for old-ass v6.5 installations like ours that only have 2 hosts and 6 vm’s.

Wall-e was a single unit carrying on the task of thousands (tens, hundreds of thousands? We don’t know if others were still functioning or we’re global). He was doing the task he was built for. EVE’s task was completely different - visit the planet every so often and search for the sustainability of life. She did that as per her programming. Different tasks.

Which is why they’re not getting the requested aid… Well, actually, the local emergency manager has to make the disaster declaration to the state and have all their local and mutual aid resources exhausted. Then if the state approves a state disaster, the governor can request a presidential disaster declaration (PDD).

IF the cheeto agreed, that would free up a willing FEMA to respond to requests. However, we now have a FEMA Director that wants to eliminate the agency, so who knows. The whole thing is a shitshow.

Ahem…
