I feel like you're having an ENTIRELY different conversation here. The premise; California was it's own State. Would THEY need the United States more than the United States would need them. I've pointed out that virtually all the technology, the research and development, the largest corporations STILL reside in California, including the most sought after technology in THE WORLD right now. You; But... some companies are moving their headquarters and paying taxes in other states. Ok...AND? California is STILL paying a ~130 BILLION dollar surplus to the Federal Gov't that they otherwise wouldn't and in this...admittedly ridiculous scenario in which they are they're own Country...with a GDP just behind Japan for the 4th largest in the WORLD, do you think they would allow a company to keep the core of it's workforce in one Country and then move to another? Does the United States allow MSFT to have all of their employees in the US except for 8 who co-lease an office in the Cayman Islands? I mean, of course many smaller Corporations do that and it's illegal and the US goes after them every year, but a 20M dollar company is not quite the same as a Trillion dollar company, right? So... when you decide on the point of this conversation and stay on track...well, it'll still be over because you have yet to make a coherent point about other than to further the argument that the United States needs California and it's Engineers and workers more than California needs the United States.

I have no idea of what Hillary would have to say on the subject.

I think you’re wrong. The deep state is setting Trump up to be exposed during this process.

Here we go again...they're doing everything they can to deflect attention away from themselves. It won't work. It actually makes him look even more guilty. Just release the file, or at least the client list. They're trying to do everything EXCEPT that. It's so obvious to anybody without the winger goggles on.

Chris Earnest to Kent State. Campbell is….

What is the USDA's Milk Loss Program? Or the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) (not milk)?

Both Clintons will have medical conditions that prevent them from appearing.

I did not have a sexual back rub with that victim.

I didn't read the rest. Sorry to upset you so. I always thought it was funny to tease you about it. I guess you don't see the humor in it. My bad. Carry on...

No, it's not "easier," but it's also not any more difficult. That's just how I write. More to the point, it's how I'd speak, so I write it how I'd say it. Stream of Consciousness. And THAT would be "post padding?" Writing '33 instead of 133? Sure, that makes a TON of sense. I'm padding my posts by substituting a quotation mark in lieu of a number...the exact same number of characters. Dude... you've posted... I don't know, at least 2 or 3 times today about my posts(I think on this thread) and you seem quite bothered by longer posts which you're obviously obligated to read. You also seem to think the more weird little passive aggressive pre-teen like comments you make I'm going to change. Tell me, in the last 8 months and the however many times you've done that, have I ever once expressed enough respect for your opinion that I'd change how I write? Now... I was having a pretty good conversation with @nhs67 and while you talk about "post padding," which you clearly consider important, you've posted multiple times about the structure of my posts. You got anything to add here other than I use too many paragraphs? Are you the boards version of an HOA policing my word count? In fact, I'm getting strong "stay at home Dad who ran for the HOA board," vibes here. You probably get that awesome golf cart and get have that time going, making sure everyone's go those garbage cans in within 12 hours of when they're emptied! Just waiting for someone t run a minute over so you can and police something else so tedious but you find it SUPER cool! Anything else?

Do you just make things up and hope it turns out to be even marginally true?

California can’t survive without the Colorado River.

... get on it!

Where do those taxes go ?

Ok...and what I said was; Did I say 85%? I don't recall. I do know they have like 125,000 employees and about ~2000 are located in Texas. If you want to call that a "Texas" company... ok...cool. Their R&D, sales, consulting, engineering, support, and research are all located in California. They are at their offices in Irvine, Pleasanton, Redwood Shores, Rocklin, Santa Clara, Santa Monica. Their famous "Emerald City," in Redwood is STILL where their innovation and engineering takes place. Meanwhile, in Texas, they subleased the office that is their "Headquarters." So please, lets not insult each others intelligence anymore by arguing the parts of these companies that make them valuable are from Texas or...wherever. Or...again, that anyone gives a single bowel movement about In and Out now paying Tennessee tax rates while still making most of their money in... California. As for their "overregulation," yeah... I've said that repeatedly. And Texas is the other end of that spectrum with their power grid and building standards. They have ZERO regulation. There's a happy medium. I don't know where you live, but the entire State doesn't shut down because it's 30 degrees and and the unregulated power grid goes down.

Maybe he was post padding. Scourge likes big post' with 4-7 paragraphs...

Ok, but I don’t see that she complained about the ad

No. But she was parodied on South Park. That’s how I know who she is. You should watch the episode it’s comedy gold.

Amos should have went somewhere else after that first season. Hillger and covid didn't help Amos any.

So a 2024 episode of South Park was complaining about a commercial from 2025? Interesting. Your AI needs work.

We all do. He should have gone anywhere but Wiscy. Here's to hoping he can bounce back and have a fantastic senior career.

I don’t think she did, she just released a parody of it. I’ve said this before, but your AI needs work.

Never heard of either. I did hear of Iizzo on South Park. It’s quite good you should watch it. ai summary In the 2024 South Parkstreaming special “The End of Obesity”, Eric Cartman's doctor prescribes him “Lizzo” as a cheaper alternative to weight loss drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro. The fictional drug “Lizzo” satirizes the popularity of weight loss medications and Lizzo's message of body positivity. The drug: The fake commercial claims “Lizzo” helps patients feel good about their weight and eat whatever they want, while minimizing physical activity. The narrator says 70% of patients no longer care how much they weigh

Any insight into who attended?
