@LinkofSunshine @UrbaneUrban Not really. On either count

[Jacob @Perrid13]

@jasonfurman Anyone can fuck up and destroy value. The ability to burn a building down around yourself says nothing about your value over replacement.

@vikphatak @danprimack Clients (including governments) and shareholders HAVE to question Jensen’s judgement because he’s shown himself to be a moron with horrible judgement.

Either way there’s risk, losing him or keeping him, because he has skill but also shown himself to be a liability

@stanfordNYC @LinkofSunshine They could have drawn a 9-5 or even 10-4 map and still worked out, if you REALLY pack Democrats, but 11-3 was too thin.

They got hoisted by their own petard whatever you want to call it

[Jacob @Perrid13]

So I meant an 10-4 but you get the idea

[Jacob @Perrid13]

@emilykmay Spread themselves too thin.

They could have drawn a 9-4 map and really packed Democrats in and been fine.

But they got greedy

[Jacob @Perrid13]

@MarkBrooksArt I mean, not understanding inflation doesn’t make you a sociopath. Also you could argue that you’re only responsible for your own decision. I don’t take that view but it’d be a common one.

[Jacob @Perrid13]

@R3DPlanetman26 Asking a question and not making the assumptions you are is fine. You, on the other hand, are a cancer on humanity. You make the world a worse place with every breath you steal to continue your less-than-worthless existence.

@JohnPenney8084 @YourDailyCentss Pre Obamacare anyone who was actually sick could be discriminated against. Some prices were kept artificially cheap because sick people were excluded from risk pools.

To the extent healthcare was cheaper (highly debatable) it was on the backs of the sickest people

@chicagobars If you half ass something and predetermine the outcome, amazing things can happen

[Jacob @Perrid13]

@simongerman600 @Noahpinion It took me a second to understand that there wasn’t a blue box border

[Jacob @Perrid13]

@SonnyBunch Probably would have lost by like 5-7 instead of almost 13, but yeah he probably would have lost.

[Jacob @Perrid13]

@AriFleischer We get you, you don't think Republicans should ever be held accountable for anything.

Makes sense, considering your role in the Iraq war. Pure self interest

[Jacob @Perrid13]

@Conrguy @natsfert Again, because the funding scheme hurts their schools, yeah.

[Jacob @Perrid13]

@Conrguy @natsfert Because that's not what it does. It makes it harder for people to stay in the communities they live in.

It makes their lives worse, "FFS"

[Jacob @Perrid13]

@gtconway3d That seems more like a plan than an accident.

Not sure why they'd want it to tank though. Want to do it themselves? Want different articles? Don't think this Senate would convict, but the next could?

[Jacob @Perrid13]

@Conrguy @natsfert You're free to think that, and the people who you're choosing not to value can vote for people who do value them and will fight for them.

[Jacob @Perrid13]

@Conrguy @natsfert Stealing money from people's schools so the few who can or who want to leave do so will make the people who have to or choose to stay unhappy.

[Jacob @Perrid13]

@MorriganReading @MikeDrucker I mean this is an argument to blow up the planet.

If we’re all dead then eventually it’ll be net positive because there won’t be more wars or murders.

I get it’s trying to be funny but it’s just SO stupid…

[Jacob @Perrid13]

@omgmaddie WHY DOES THAT MATTER IF YOU WANT BOYS TO READ? The Count of Monte Cristo was written centuries ago and I was obsessed with it (well an abridged version) when I was in middle school.

You don’t want to “help” boys read you want to win internet points.

Disgusting.
