Migrants will be accommodated in holding centres close to airports and ports, which the Government has insisted will not be detention centres, while asylum seekers’ applications will be processed within a maximum of 12 weeks.

i wish reporters had more balls when reporting on political doublespeak.

i use to work IT at a place that used those cisco AP’s and i always considered getting one for myself to drown out the other AP’s in my apartment building because my wifi was also spotty no matter what channel i picked and whatever survey i took; the price tag at the time (around $1k+ at the time) was the only thing preventing me for doing so.

you’d think it doesn’t need to be said because it’s obvious, but i speak from experience that it does need to be said: make sure you don’t put them into an agitation based washer; impeller or tumble washers ONLY!

(or atleast use a laundry bag if you have only have access to an agitation washer)

and air dry them IN THE SUN!!!

so too are a lot of gay men

i was also going to point out biden’s 100% tariffs on electric vehicles contradicts climate initiatives; supporting trump’s immigration policies (as you just did); etc. and i want to say it’s nice to hear someone else splash a dose of reality into the conversation.

that’s how all of our progressive laws & rules take place; they seem progressive on the surface but if you look the tiniest bit closer it’s clear that it’s not.

he also switched sides back then on that topic too when it was no longer politically popular.

he’s not a leader nor is it growth (he was proud of appeasing segregationists during his campaign and kamala had to put him in his place); he’s a politician that does whatever it takes to get votes.

Very frustrating to see Presidents implement these policies out of desperation in the middle of a tight election season rather than rolling them out ASAP.

given biden’s history; i’m convinced that this was the only reason why he did it.

i feel like it’s worse if you do remember it or don’t take it for granted; because those who never got experience it refuse to believe it ever happened. (and i’ve run into a few on lemmyverse in the last few days who are old enough to remember but still refuse to believe it).

biden et. al voted for doma which ended up with the person i built a life with being deported and also they also voted for non-dischargable student load debt; that combined with don’t-ask/don’t-tell; forced me to take on permanent-for-life debt.

seeing him touted as the most pro-lgbt or progressive president ever on social media (especially the lemmyverse) feels like a slap every time i see it and seeing him take these token actions only serves to reinforce it.

biden believed it until 2012; so it’s easy to see why anyone else would

We’ve decided your sexuality is scandalous, forcing you to hide it, which makes you at risk of being blackmailed, so we’re charging you with a crime.” Fucking despicable.

part of me wants to forgive biden’s votes & support of those laws (eg dont ask dont tell; defense of marriage; executive order 10450); but seeing as how the everyone on social media (especially the lemmyverse) already refuse to believe he did those things makes me feel like i have a duty to remember since they fucked with my life and so many other’s lives’ so severely; along with the other fucked up things he did that social media has already chosen to forget about.

that’s why he lost; that giant foreign nation spent millions to unseat him and it worked.

and he’s the only viable alternative to the conservatives over there.

my car is 16 years old and it’s american made so i’m certain that’s it’s going to fail catastrophically very soon, so i need a new car and i want one of these; but i’ll have to wait atleast another 5 years for the 100% tariffs to abate. even then, there’s a good chance that there’ll be new tariffs.

i’ve already canceled this summer road trip because of the precariousness of my car’s functioning and i’ll have the cancel the rest from now on and it’s maddening considering how much money people can throw away on car trip helping turn this turd of an economy around; but we won’t do it simply because someone other than the united states or its puppets are profiting from it.

or create a tv show and watch as millions fawn over their every move

and a reality in the united states

it’s also bullshit when you consider that the only thing i could steal is source code and; since everything we worked on was open source; i would have absolutely nothing to gain from it. lol

nope

Other industries, I’m sure, are looking for different things based on what they’re hiring for. Where I work, there is a different set of checks we run on folks that work in our finance department, but I don’t oversee that area.

they look at credit scores now to get jobs and that floored me when i worked for a fintech job at a bank holdings company; they were going to reject me because my credit report showed a an overdue credit card account from when i was 8 years old.

it was obviously wrong because no one gives credit cards to 8 year olds; but it was there in all 3 credit reporting agency’s reports; they had to get their legal team involved to tell their hr team to let me, a software developer, work at a bank doing software development because of a bad credit score.

maybe because i mentioned it?
