Senators aren’t impeached. They are expelled. Expulsion requires two-thirds vote in the Senate.
Thom Yorke has literally tried everything for selling music. Though it all he’s seen the music industry eventually consume it.
You can’t invent something new without it eventually turning into what was the old. We can always keep moving the tech, we can always keep inventing some new platform, but we never get to keep to ourselves forever.
The reason why this keeps happening is because people keep trying to apply a solution that doesn’t apply to the problem. We don’t need some NEW method of delivery. We just need to get rid of the OLD system of industry.

Oh no. Man I had no idea what you were trying to say on first read. No. It’s just this shit happens all the time in Tennessee. Our State Government gets told what the fundamental issue is, they create some cheap stop-gap solution, it fails two or three years down the road.
Like if you ever drive on Interstate 24 in Tennessee this kind of thing is in your face like all the time. Also the State prison healthcare going on here is just chef kiss perfect example of failing to understand root cause.
“Prisoners keep dying in prison because of sickness, I know! Let’s just privatize it.” Prisoners keep dying. “I don’t know where we went wrong?!” It’s hard to feel like justice is served if everything that lands someone in prison exposes them to a incredibly high rate of death by disease.

Yeah, the entire underlying problem are the pipes that lead to the pool as many have tried to tell him. The pipes leading to and from the treatment machine need to be fully replaced. When the pool was renovated in 2012, the pipes installed were for the wrong application. The land the pool sits on is formerly wetlands. So special attention is required for putting in pipes in that area. This wasn’t done and so the soil is literally crushing the pipes allowing water treatment to leak into the surrounding soil.
This is why they’ve had to have people physically go out there and manually treat the pool. The problem is that the treatment is never making to the pool in a large enough volume to make a difference. But the manual treatment requires people in large “unsightly” protective gear to wade through the pool and treat the water. Then they have to rope off the section that was treated to ensure no one tried to enter the pool until the treatment has diluted enough.
Trump keeps doing the thing Trump is known for, cutting corners that ultimately mean more money is spent long term. The problem is the pipes. They need to be replaced. But then the pool has to be closed for large construction and the short term cost goes up. So Trump keeps just putting a band-aid on it over and over and over again like the idiot he is.
He’s been told what the issue is and what the fix is. He just wants a short-term “fix” so he looks good. He’s not actually interested in fixing the pool. The pipes have to be ripped out and new ones installed. That is the only true fix.

Futurama meme coming soon.
