The third party here is a spoiler to try to bleed people from the left to think there's a legitimate other option when their motive is to get a Republican elected. People on the left may not be equally susceptible to bad faith arguments, but that doesn't mean they're immune.

Yes. You are misinformed.

Where was Rogan when the Westfold fell?

They're having trouble finding people who want to do the job for the pay they're offering.

Mix of both light and deeper shows here, mostly character-driven:

Scrubs - Show about a group of residents at a hospital navigating their first few years of training.

Cougar Town - Show about 40somethings in western Florida, the name has nothing to do with the show after the first five or ten episodes. Same creator as Scrubs. Focuses on the core group navigating life at 40 in Florida and their ridiculousness.

Community - Show about a community college in Colorado that gets increasingly experimental in its story telling. Show focuses on the antics of the core group.

Better Off Ted - Another show about 40somethings, this time in the corporate world. The name, like Cougar Town, has almost nothing to do with the actual show. Focuses on how this group tries to keep ahead of their soul crushing jobs for a corporation that's literally evil.

Happy Endings - This time about 30somethings in Chicago who are all friends, two of whom are about to get married when the bride runs away at the altar. Really turns into putting this group into various scenarios to see how it plays out.

New Girl - Show about a teacher in LA who moves into a loft with three guys (sometimes a fourth) and their subsequent misadventures in the city.

30 Rock - Show about the cast and crew of an SNL-style variety show airing weekly on NBC out of 30 Rockefeller Plaza in New York, grows increasingly absurdist over times.

Arrested Development - About the son of a real estate tycoon who gets arrested for so many crimes and how he tries to keep the family business going despite the incompetence of the rest of the family (and occasionally his own incompetence).

Bored to Death - About a writer who solves mysteries with his publisher and best friend (two different people).

Only Murders in the Building - Show about three residents, two older and one younger, of a classic New York residential building that discover they like the same murder mystery podcasts and then start their own true crime podcasts when they discover a murder occurred in their building.

Veep - About a put-upon Vice President of the United States and the general incompetence of her office and the administration. Surprisingly insightful satire of the actual executive branch in the United States.

Silicon Valley - Show about a group of guys in Silicon Valley and their VC partners trying to build a startup.

Happy to recommend more if you've got something more specific you're into.

I get you. There's good and bad in law enforcement, especially when it comes to tech and social media. On the one hand, there's pretty serious crime happening online that needs to be stopped. On the other, wild invasions of privacy. There's no easy answer at this point and governments obviously won't police themselves.

And yet, and this will shock and amaze you, they're probably here already. Lemmy isn't a secret.

It's still important to note. These workers provide a broader economic benefit, this isn't just about them working for their own sake.

They publicly threatened to make writers and actors homeless. He's just being more direct about it.

I like Adam Something’s takes on it, which is essentially that the Hyperloop is dangerous and metros/subways are better.

This really isn't a helpful answer. People don't get a Ring for the doorbell, they get it for the camera. This post is requesting a good private security camera that can also record and maybe allow you to talk to whoever is at your door. Your answer is the equivalent of:

Q: Gasoline-powered car - what are the easiest hybrid alternatives?

A: A normal goddamn bicycle

Fun fact: if you took a sip of beer every time you saw the word "federated" on Lemmy, you would drown.
