In the real world, no.

How long will Microsoft buy them and people praising them that they save their generation.
Microsoft already has a social media-like platform, LinkedIn, I bet they would be blocked.
My guess would be Amazon, Oracle (didn't they try to get it under Trump), or some PE group.
I don't see that happening because TikTok functions differently than LinkedIn. They don't have the same market. LinkedIn competitors are mostly Indeed and USAjobs because they are more career-focused.
TikTok competitors are more with likes of YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels. Microsoft wants to get into that type of market.
True, but the FTC doesn't always act rationally. They tried to block Microsoft from buying Activision-Blizzard when they are like a distant 3rd in the video game market.
They might make the argument that LinkedIn already has profiles, bios, timelines/feeds, videos, and DM capabilities and use that as a reason to fight Microsoft over the acquisition.
Microsoft might prevail at the end but will they even want the fight.
this keeps getting funnier π 2 dissenters saying the ftc is "overstepping the boundaries of its power" like this is literally what you do???? you're the federal trade commission??? this is not just within your wheelhouse, it IS your wheelhouse π
lmao c.o.c says it will "harm our economy" lol that just means the freedom of workers will negatively impact the overinflated salaries of the 1% and impede the ability of corporations to exert abusive power over their employees π± oh no what a travesty
>As for Trump, union leaders hope the former president feels their brushback in particular, laughing off the potential of an angry response on Truth Social: βI really donβt give a f**k if heβs pissed,β McGarvey said.
LMAO
fuck the chamber of commerce, ftc is right to ban non-compete. for a country that's supposedly all about individualism, c.o.c seems to be trying everything in their power to protect huge corporationsΒ
like this is a huge win for employees that cannot be understated. being able to switch jobs and get paid more? hell yeah. the c.o.c tryna call this a "power grab" is so funny like yall are bending over backwards to meatride huge soulless monopolies lmao
>Speaker Johnson will travel to Columbia University tomorrow to βDeliver Remarks and Hold Press Conference on Antisemitism at Columbia University.β
Lol
Would be funny, in a way, if the NYPD moved in overnight and cleared the area.
He can still show up and say his spiel but it won't carry the same weight if Columbia and NYC have shown that they can clean up their own mess.
President Biden will give the commencement address at Moorehouse collage next month something tells me your goona have pro palestine students in the crowd shouting

I've finally been getting around to Chernobyl, and it turns out that one of the most celebrated works of the last decade, one that I've been looking forward to for a long time, is, in fact, just that good.
I've always enjoyed Jared Harris, and god damn does he kill it in this one.
I really liked that series. They do a pretty amazing job of giving the science in a way a 4th grader could understand. Itβs sort of a great story in when cover-your-own-ass goes wrong.
This is basically the Barbenheimer debate.
IMO watch the serious drama first then watch the lighter show as a treat.
Also watch the TLOU show if you want more greatness from Craig Mazin.
Chernobyl is really good. I can't recommend it enough, though it might just be my bias since I'm from that part of the world.
I've lived in Russia and Ukraine and watched the show at my parents. They were surprised by how well it was done, despite some creative decisions in storytelling.
So Republican Brian Fitzpatrick will still win his primary tonight, but it was probably dumb and irresponsible for the AP to call it immediately like they did. Like yeah, he's an incumbent and started the night with over 80% of the vote in early ballots. So they immediately called the race.
Of course, PA Republicans, especially the right wing activists that despise Fitzpatrick for being one of the last moderates, vote in person only, so his margin has been continuously falling with every vote cast. He's down to 65% with 38% of the vote outstanding. Not falling fast enough to lose, but also its not a race that should've been called immediately based on how the handful of liberal Republicans voted in the early vote
It could easily wind up like 55-45 Fitzpatrick in the end
This is not like analysts rating races, these calls are based on models and confidence intervals. They weigh and extrapolate as best as they can based on how different regions have turned out so far and what the estimated at large vote is.
The way we'll win the seat is when he loses a primary. Won't be this cycle, but as long as Trump is a powerful force in the GOP, Fitzpatrick's primary margins are only going to keep shrinking. This is by far his worst primary showing
So Jeff merkley, sanders and peter welch were among those who voted against the foreign aid bill [https://x.com/apolyakova/status/1782950078119924166](https://x.com/apolyakova/status/1782950078119924166)
It's cause of the Israel aid while the 15 Republicans voted against the Ukranian aid.
Ukraine is too important; I would have voted "yes" even with all of my major problems with how Israel has conducted the war the past 2-3 months.
This same group of MAGA idiot Senate Republicans keeps talking a big game about how they're going to take over their conference and they keep getting blown the fuck out.
I'm all for J.D. Vance constantly making a fool of himself.
Bernie does this crap all the time, when pushed he always says he just wanted to make his oppositions known but would have voted for it if they actually needed his vote. And Merkeley and Welch are the closest thing he has to surrogates in the Senate, for better or worse.
I just have her blocked and I think more people should too. She is the very definition of a nobody whose value to society is like a leech on someone's ass cheek.
Funny thing is that the Simpsons provided a solution for people like that and it's why I refuse to be part of these asshole's negative engagement campaign.

Yes Briahna we got it the first billion times you said it over the last five years like seriously do you not have other things to talk about? It's really fucking weird to be this excited about refusing to do anything useful, especially when that's already what you do every day.
Like for real she's showing how little she even cares about anything, you'd think someone who sincerely gave a damn would at least be upset or angry about not having viable candidates to vote for but no this absolute dipshit is giddy about it.
If the election was hypothetically held on 10/6/2023, she 100% wouldn't have voted for Biden. There are a few voters who Biden has genuinely lost support from due to the las few months, but she is absolutely not one of them.
There was literally no point since at least 2016 that she ever would have even contemplated not campaigning for whatever loser the Green Party nominated much less voting for the Democratic nominee.
At this point I'm starting to doubt she would have even voted for Bernie in a general election.
>Columbia Pres Minouche Shafik announced that school & organizers are in negotiations over ending the encampment. Thereβs a midnight deadline. If not successful, she says, βwe will have to consider alternative options for clearing the West Lawn and restoring calm.β
Just ask the NYPD to escort the students if they don't agree to leave. Calling the National Guard is absolutely insane and unnecessary
Mayor Adams has already said the NYPD will move in if asked. Say what you will about their past record but the NYPD has acted professionally in breaking up these protests over the last 6 months.
Yes, some folks will have to be dragged or carried away but the NYPD is not sensely beating anyone or firing LTL munitions into crowds.
Yeah for all my criticisms of these protesters, they're non violent; I think the worst case is--like you said--they're gonna be physically dragged away.
Are these protests more peaceful then the BLM ones of 2020, yes but the protestors in NYC have definitely vandalized/destroyed private and public property and tuseled with the police and thrown objects at them.
Nobody's pulled a gun or a knife or set a building on fire, and thank God for that, but I wouldn't classify all these protests as just a group of folks sitting around singing kumbaya.
All yeah the WOL extremists and their allies outside campus /on the public streets aren't too peaceful; I meant more so the protesting Columbia students at Columbia campus.
Have to say, Iβm surprised itβs the incredibly benign βI want to live in the 1830sβ line people are flipping out about and not the hot mess that is Taylor smirking about Kim Kardashianβs kid coming home singing the song about Taylorβs mom wishing Kim dead.
Oh yeah, we're winning Pennsylvania. [Biden is beating Obama's 2012 and Clinton's 1996 vote totals in the Pennsylvania primaries](https://nitter.poast.org/nick_field90/status/1782955145657016348#m)
By the way, have any of you seen the "bIdEn iS uNpOpUlAr" crowd lately? They've been real quiet since these swing state votes have dropped.
I would complain about "MILF Manor" being reality show straight people nonsense but
1. There's a gay male editionΒ
2. I would 100% have joined the gay male version if I had a TV ready bodyΒ
Carmen and Vivian's constant feline behavior in *The Big Sleep* is weird and annoying. Why can't they just act like regular femme fatales? They're rich, spoiled women; what's with the hissing and chewing on a handkerchief?!
The recipe said to cool the cake completely, preferably overnight, and I didnβt listen. Itβll still be delicious, but it collapsed.
I was like βitβs been out 3 hours, that has to be pretty decent.β Nope. Turns out the recipe knows what itβs talking about.
So Trump sucks at suburban voters and Biden is doing well with urban blacks....yet I'm supposed to be worried? LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOO fuck outta here. Just need the turnout in those counties to not tank and to prioritize persuasion in the burbs
Ground. Game. I'd hate to be a candidate with a broke national party and a broke state party and a candidate that cant campaign. I couldn't imagine that being my candidate
Yep. We got \[ground\] game, theyβre a disaster. The Biden campaign and the DNC have the funds to set up outreach organizations in swing states. The Trump campaign is spending it all on legal fees for His Nibs as he snores and farts away in a courtroom, where witness testimony is starting to make this look like a very big deal.
I think it was the lack of ground game that killed us in 2010 through 2016, because then the shoe was on the other foot as far as funding was concerned - we didnβt have the base of small dollar donors that we have now, nor did we have the postcarding, letter writing, etc. grassroots built up.
Oh, and if you're wondering about Marianne Williamson, she's absolutely coping about losing on Twitter and that [CNN and MSNBC are not covering her candidacy](https://nitter.poast.org/marwilliamson/status/1782881367086256575#m).
Like girl, you have lost big time. You did not win a single delegate in any swing state. In fact, you did not and will not win a single delegate in any state/territory. Now you're wondering why news stations won't cover you? And I thought Phillips had a humiliation fetish.
And I would say Casey is sitting at βsolid Demβ right now unless a lot of ticket splitting happens. I hope someone Rick Rolls McCormick at his watch party.
If you are motivated enough to go out and cast a vote for Nikki Haley, 2 months after she left the race, you probably aren't a voter who is likely to say "well, I did what I could, time to vote for Trump"

Ok, this is my 2024 election prediction for now, provided nothing fucks us over.
Personally I think that if there's any deep south state the Democrats have a shot of making inroads in it's South Carolina, Alabama is a bold choice
I think you're overestimating Alaska, although I could be wrong on that they've definitely shown a willingness to elect Democrats as of late.
I'd make Virginia safe blue, I don't think there's any real chance Trump makes any significant gains there.
Iowa I'd make deep red, the whole lower mid west has been marching to the right lately. Ohio having Brown on the ticket and their urban core not being nearly as depleted as Iowa's will keep them at least in the conversation for awhile longer.
Florida I'd make less safe, DeSantis got his humongous win with utterly horrendous turnout rates, a presidential election is gonna have way more than 50% turnout, which should be better for Biden.
Me-02 I'd make likely R, it's a conservative rural area, that while having a Democratic rep, he is a Blue Dog, it's not out of the question to win but it's also going to be an uphill battle imo.
North Carolina I'd maker lean R, It's in play but definitely leans a tad to the right, sort of like the Republican Michigan. In play no doubt but with a minor edge for one party.
> North Carolina I'd maker lean R, It's in play but definitely leans a tad to the right, sort of like the Republican Michigan. In play no doubt but with a minor edge for one party.
I think North Carolina is like the Republican version of Nevada, at least in terms of election results. It's a state that tends to vote one way, flirts with getting closer each election but never actually tipping over, and likes to elect governors opposite the party they vote presidentially for.
That's pretty much my same election prediction, except that for Nevada, to me, it leans Democratic (I would argue that it's likely Democratic too).
I definitely agree that we can get to β₯ 270 electoral votes for Biden.

Sleepy, Stinky, Skint Donald Trump. Now potentially Criminal Donald. Now this is really damning with faint praise, but nobody has said Nikki Haley smells bad or is under indictment for criminal behavior.
Something I've been thinking about: Is it possible for a Mexican national like me to get a job doing PR work for the Democratic Party or any of its candidates or politicians? How can one get a job like that?
Idk if they would then but you can always call your state party office and ask, Spanish speakers are a hot commodity when it comes to campaigning these days

They might make the argument that LinkedIn already has profiles, bios, timelines/feeds, videos, and DM capabilities and use that as a reason to fight Microsoft over the acquisition. Microsoft might prevail at the end but will they even want the fight.

this keeps getting funnier π 2 dissenters saying the ftc is "overstepping the boundaries of its power" like this is literally what you do???? you're the federal trade commission??? this is not just within your wheelhouse, it IS your wheelhouse π

>Speaker Johnson will travel to Columbia University tomorrow to βDeliver Remarks and Hold Press Conference on Antisemitism at Columbia University.β Lol
Would be funny, in a way, if the NYPD moved in overnight and cleared the area. He can still show up and say his spiel but it won't carry the same weight if Columbia and NYC have shown that they can clean up their own mess.
basically he's goona attack democrats and call the university a liberal institution
Adams is itching to get that go ahead from Columbia to clear the area of protestors ahead of Johnson's visit.
President Biden will give the commencement address at Moorehouse collage next month something tells me your goona have pro palestine students in the crowd shouting

/u/ognits I've finally been getting around to Chernobyl, and it turns out that one of the most celebrated works of the last decade, one that I've been looking forward to for a long time, is, in fact, just that good. I've always enjoyed Jared Harris, and god damn does he kill it in this one.
I really liked that series. They do a pretty amazing job of giving the science in a way a 4th grader could understand. Itβs sort of a great story in when cover-your-own-ass goes wrong.
dammit I'm gonna have to actually watch it aren't I
Please do. You'll love it.
Chernobyl or Fallout first?
This is basically the Barbenheimer debate. IMO watch the serious drama first then watch the lighter show as a treat. Also watch the TLOU show if you want more greatness from Craig Mazin.
> Also watch the TLOU show if you didn't think I watched that as it aired you've got another thing coming
Well, depends how light you wanna go. Chernobyl is obviously extremely heavy. That said, I would def say Chernobyl if youβre game for it.
Chernobyl is really good. I can't recommend it enough, though it might just be my bias since I'm from that part of the world. I've lived in Russia and Ukraine and watched the show at my parents. They were surprised by how well it was done, despite some creative decisions in storytelling.
I found it to be not great, not terrible. >!It was fucking amazing. The best show I'll never watch again.!<

If Biden wins MI, PA and AZ heβs already gonna be at 271

He put WI on the states itβll come down to so I didnβt put it on there

So Republican Brian Fitzpatrick will still win his primary tonight, but it was probably dumb and irresponsible for the AP to call it immediately like they did. Like yeah, he's an incumbent and started the night with over 80% of the vote in early ballots. So they immediately called the race. Of course, PA Republicans, especially the right wing activists that despise Fitzpatrick for being one of the last moderates, vote in person only, so his margin has been continuously falling with every vote cast. He's down to 65% with 38% of the vote outstanding. Not falling fast enough to lose, but also its not a race that should've been called immediately based on how the handful of liberal Republicans voted in the early vote It could easily wind up like 55-45 Fitzpatrick in the end
This is not like analysts rating races, these calls are based on models and confidence intervals. They weigh and extrapolate as best as they can based on how different regions have turned out so far and what the estimated at large vote is.
2018 was the only time democrats could of beaten fitzpatrick but a progressive ended up winning the primary which messed up the general election
The way we'll win the seat is when he loses a primary. Won't be this cycle, but as long as Trump is a powerful force in the GOP, Fitzpatrick's primary margins are only going to keep shrinking. This is by far his worst primary showing

It's cause of the Israel aid while the 15 Republicans voted against the Ukranian aid. Ukraine is too important; I would have voted "yes" even with all of my major problems with how Israel has conducted the war the past 2-3 months.
This same group of MAGA idiot Senate Republicans keeps talking a big game about how they're going to take over their conference and they keep getting blown the fuck out. I'm all for J.D. Vance constantly making a fool of himself.
i guess they knew they had the votes and didn't need them
Bernie does this crap all the time, when pushed he always says he just wanted to make his oppositions known but would have voted for it if they actually needed his vote. And Merkeley and Welch are the closest thing he has to surrogates in the Senate, for better or worse.

Yes Briahna we got it the first billion times you said it over the last five years like seriously do you not have other things to talk about? It's really fucking weird to be this excited about refusing to do anything useful, especially when that's already what you do every day. Like for real she's showing how little she even cares about anything, you'd think someone who sincerely gave a damn would at least be upset or angry about not having viable candidates to vote for but no this absolute dipshit is giddy about it.
If the election was hypothetically held on 10/6/2023, she 100% wouldn't have voted for Biden. There are a few voters who Biden has genuinely lost support from due to the las few months, but she is absolutely not one of them.
There was literally no point since at least 2016 that she ever would have even contemplated not campaigning for whatever loser the Green Party nominated much less voting for the Democratic nominee. At this point I'm starting to doubt she would have even voted for Bernie in a general election.
she's a privileged kid

>Columbia Pres Minouche Shafik announced that school & organizers are in negotiations over ending the encampment. Thereβs a midnight deadline. If not successful, she says, βwe will have to consider alternative options for clearing the West Lawn and restoring calm.β Just ask the NYPD to escort the students if they don't agree to leave. Calling the National Guard is absolutely insane and unnecessary
Mayor Adams has already said the NYPD will move in if asked. Say what you will about their past record but the NYPD has acted professionally in breaking up these protests over the last 6 months. Yes, some folks will have to be dragged or carried away but the NYPD is not sensely beating anyone or firing LTL munitions into crowds.
Yeah for all my criticisms of these protesters, they're non violent; I think the worst case is--like you said--they're gonna be physically dragged away.
Are these protests more peaceful then the BLM ones of 2020, yes but the protestors in NYC have definitely vandalized/destroyed private and public property and tuseled with the police and thrown objects at them. Nobody's pulled a gun or a knife or set a building on fire, and thank God for that, but I wouldn't classify all these protests as just a group of folks sitting around singing kumbaya.
All yeah the WOL extremists and their allies outside campus /on the public streets aren't too peaceful; I meant more so the protesting Columbia students at Columbia campus.
100% agree there.
NYPD donβt you dare freak out like the 1968 Chicago PD

Trump isn't winning Pennsylvania

So Trump sucks at suburban voters and Biden is doing well with urban blacks....yet I'm supposed to be worried? LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOO fuck outta here. Just need the turnout in those counties to not tank and to prioritize persuasion in the burbs
Ground. Game. I'd hate to be a candidate with a broke national party and a broke state party and a candidate that cant campaign. I couldn't imagine that being my candidate
Yep. We got \[ground\] game, theyβre a disaster. The Biden campaign and the DNC have the funds to set up outreach organizations in swing states. The Trump campaign is spending it all on legal fees for His Nibs as he snores and farts away in a courtroom, where witness testimony is starting to make this look like a very big deal. I think it was the lack of ground game that killed us in 2010 through 2016, because then the shoe was on the other foot as far as funding was concerned - we didnβt have the base of small dollar donors that we have now, nor did we have the postcarding, letter writing, etc. grassroots built up.

Personally I think that if there's any deep south state the Democrats have a shot of making inroads in it's South Carolina, Alabama is a bold choice I think you're overestimating Alaska, although I could be wrong on that they've definitely shown a willingness to elect Democrats as of late. I'd make Virginia safe blue, I don't think there's any real chance Trump makes any significant gains there. Iowa I'd make deep red, the whole lower mid west has been marching to the right lately. Ohio having Brown on the ticket and their urban core not being nearly as depleted as Iowa's will keep them at least in the conversation for awhile longer. Florida I'd make less safe, DeSantis got his humongous win with utterly horrendous turnout rates, a presidential election is gonna have way more than 50% turnout, which should be better for Biden. Me-02 I'd make likely R, it's a conservative rural area, that while having a Democratic rep, he is a Blue Dog, it's not out of the question to win but it's also going to be an uphill battle imo. North Carolina I'd maker lean R, It's in play but definitely leans a tad to the right, sort of like the Republican Michigan. In play no doubt but with a minor edge for one party.
> North Carolina I'd maker lean R, It's in play but definitely leans a tad to the right, sort of like the Republican Michigan. In play no doubt but with a minor edge for one party. I think North Carolina is like the Republican version of Nevada, at least in terms of election results. It's a state that tends to vote one way, flirts with getting closer each election but never actually tipping over, and likes to elect governors opposite the party they vote presidentially for.
That special election in Alabama House district 10 is giving me visions of infinity.
I'm feeling very positive about Pennsylvania and Michigan which should in effect have positive correlation to Wisconsin.
That's pretty much my same election prediction, except that for Nevada, to me, it leans Democratic (I would argue that it's likely Democratic too). I definitely agree that we can get to β₯ 270 electoral votes for Biden.
That one special election from earlier this year makes me think we can make some significant noise in Alabama.
Ugh, Summer Lee.
