Why not from Meta to MAI TAI?


The video is not about that.


Eh. I am very happy with thwir service, but I didn’t opt for the free tier. It has replaced my old VPN service provider, 1Password, google’s 2FA, Google Drive, and the office suite is useful.
Since i was paying for other services that offered no privacy, switching to a single paid service with privacy ended up saving me money, so no complaints.
The grim reaper doesn’t deserve to be placed in such company.


I get that, for the overall post. I was just noting that this specific comment thread was in response to your comment about his qualifications and experience. Nothing more. It later got filled with other trains of conversation, but my response to you was specific to that one subject, not whether or not celebrities in general should be public servants.


I don’t understand your replies. In the video Jon addresses the impulse people have to want folk like him, Colbert, and Kimmel to run for office. He insinuates his disagreement but understands the sentiment. In other words, exactly your point.
On the other hand, you keep arguing the point of Jon as POTUS in this comment thread when the only point being made was that, unlike most celebrities, Jon has knowledge and experience in the legislative process. You stated that he had no other qualification other than fame. I corrected that misconception. Nothing more.


His involvement was hands on and significant. In person lobbying, actual help crafting the legislation, etc.
Does that alone qualify him to be potus? Probably not, which is the point he is making in the video. Does it make him far more qualified than Trump? Absolutely. But the point of my comment was in response to yours…
What kind of preparation would Jon Stewart have to be a good President of the USA? other than being famous?
…and to illustrate that he does indeed have hands on knowledge and experience in the legislative negotiations and crafting, which most other celebrities do not have.


I genuinely thought this was an Onion post.


Oddly, you’d be correct 99% of the time but in Jon’s case he is actually highly experienced with dealings on Capitol Hill.
After leaving The Daily Show, Stewart maintained a low profile in entertainment industry circles, but used his celebrity and voice in a sustained advocacy for 9/11 first responders and war veterans’ health benefits. In 2019, he received the New York City Bronze Medallion for his “tireless advocacy, inspiration, and leadership (helping to) pass the permanent authorization of the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund Act”. He continued using his platform as an advocate for veterans by being instrumental in helping pass the Honoring our PACT Act of 2022, which expands healthcare access and funding to veterans exposed to toxic substances during their service including burn pits.
Just saw this featured in the opening scenes of Agatha Christie’s The Seven Dials (Netflix).


Your tails are too short which makes it hard to read. The letters “a” and “o” are hard to differentiate because of this.
EDIT: Also, splitting a four letter word at the fourth letter “dow -n”, is a very poor practice.


Then what do you want them to do? Violent uprising? Because that’s an even worse thing to suggest when you are in a different country.


Also, I can’t vote in the Untied States, I’m Canadian.
Jesus fucking Christ, dude. Why are you trying to discourage Americans from trying to fix the mess their in via legal means if you don’t even have a legal say? This is a bad look, at best.
As a former Austin resident, I am wise enough to know that the price of a.peaceful lunch is to leave some leftovers for the grackle overlords. Fail to do this and they will shit on you, your car, AND your lunch…then steal it.
“It Takes Two” is the game you are looking for.
I’m American. I rarely buy American. Almost everything is Chinese, Japanese, European, or something else.
Highly effective tactics you’ve got there, ICE.
