I thought my release radar was lighter than usual, I wonder how many of my artists are getting artificially ignored from this

I'm sorry

Bullshit. She's great, with a long track record to back that up.

Not only is she not old and not in mental decline, but she's also charismatic, engaging, and she is progressive. Congress and the courts will limit her policies of course, but that's by design, the government is not just the president.

Beyond that, with picking Walz and other strategic picks in her campaign, she's shown that she knows how to form a good team and avoid landmines.

I'm looking forward to the Harris presidency and voting For her, not just against Trump.

Very cool

I fully agree, companies whine and complain that they can't find any skilled labor without ever acknowledging that it's their job to train and take risks on the newbies. Instead they just want the perfect candidate for their specialized position to be gift wrapped and at "market rate" and desperate enough to go through multiple interview stages.

Even in my job, I've asked over and over for them to hire a junior/apprentice that I can train up from the beginning on our complex system and work, but they just want to hire short term contractors instead. We end spending the same amount of time training them as a junior, but then 6-12 months later when their contract is up, they go off somewhere else and we have to do it all over again and never build on our foundations.

I was hired as a contractor, and stuck through until I was an employee, and I'm now 5 years in, but it was not easy. It was essentially a two year paid interview.

And most don't make it that way. If I was hired as a real employee as a junior, and able to train my way up with the masters of my company, who knows where I'd be and how not-delayed and not-over-budget our project would be.

When I talk to business about it, they moan how employees and contractors come from different budgets and the stock market favors contractors so their hands are tied, and I call bullshit on that. It's bad business and the solution is obvious - train up the workforce you want to have.

It's like buying a good pair of boots once, or buying cheap boots every year.

To reach across the divide for a handshake:

This is something Biden and many progressives have been pushing for,

And specifically in shipbuilding and getting the workforce where it needs, both in private ships and the military, the admin is moving in the right direction, opening new shipbuilding yards, getting people to train up, and putting in ship orders https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2024/07/29/fact-sheet-white-house-announces-new-private-sector-investments-in-american-maritime-industries-due-to-biden-harris-administration-efforts/

Getting more manufacturing back in the US, becoming more self sufficient, and having dignified employment are all my goals as a progressive too, and I'm really happy there's movement from the current administration in their areas (despite complaints in other areas)

(I used all Whitehouse links as a from-the-horses mouth source, but there are plenty of articles about each)

Technically... yes

She's going against Debbie Wasserman Schultz and is explicitly anti AIPAC and progressive

I do not doubt or counter the terrible things he has done and continues to do.

He is a despicable person.

Don't dehumanize him. He's a human just like you and me, and we must stay vigilant to our friends and our selves to not become like Andrew Tate or any other people who have terrible unchecked thoughts and actions.
