In the grand scheme of things someone being here illegally and working construction is about last on my list of priorities

They bother me.

They are taking up housing that US citizens could use....everyone keeps complaining about needing more housing, eh?

They are a burden on our schools and other public resources.

They are dead weight on our medical system...in many cities they overrun the ERs of hospitals making it difficult for true US citizens to get emergency care in their own country.

Just a few examples.,,....the US budget would save a lot of money if they were GONE.

It turns out that immigrants commit fewer crimes than citizen

Add some guard towers with machine guns and the border is starting to look like post WW2 Berlin.

Frankly, iI'd be all for settting up our snipers, they could get some free practice...

And a No Man's land....complete with a field along the border of land mines.

Airbnb allowed making guests do it.

They lost so much money to hotels theyâ(TM)re banning hosts from requiring it.

Am I the only one that finds her to be somewhat strangely attractive ?

She's not beautiful by any stretch.....but something about her, maybe the big eyes....I find somewhat attractive.

Anyone else?

...Now, does anyone have a spare $30K they could loan me?

I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a......

Are there any wearable countermeasures available to wear that will at least notify you these devices are in your vicinity....and, even better, emit some kind of signal or sound that will fsck up any AI recordings going on around you?

"Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.â

I think we're seeing this in droves right now....

Do not taunt (Happy Fun) Claude...

"...99 luftballoons...."

Oh JFC.....

What's next...Trans-Bots and DEI for underserved Bot minorities?!!? H1-Bot....?

It sounds interesting from a hardware perspective ....

....but "Windows"? Ick...no thanks.

So...there's really a shed that people build to store bicycles?

Again, is this a European thing? I've never heard of a shed dedicated to storing bikes....I can see this is brewing used as an analogy for something else, but the shed/bike concept itself is foreign to me.
