We didn’t always have a primary system, that’s relatively recent.
In the past, the candidate would be picked at the convention after much wheeling dealing. “Smoke filled rooms” and all that.

“Not good” is an understatement. Potential career ender.
If Trump wins in November, this debate will be exhibit #1.
Abrams can’t win local elections, she has no shot at a national level.
Biden can only be removed by Biden, but frankly, his performance last night was so terrible, he not only needs to stop the campaign, he should consider stepping down from office.
If he can’t handle Trump in a debate, there’s no way he’s handling the duties of office.
As for who would replace him?
The DNC would push for Kamala Harris which would guarantee a Trump win.
The next two logical choices would be Gavin Newsom or Gretchen Whitmer.
But there are lots of good Democrats out there, Peter DeFazio, Jeff Merkley, Ron Wyden, Earl Blumenauer, all from Oregon.
If you’re dead set on “ancient white guy”, I hear Jerry Brown is still available. :)

Teams meetings

Too many open channels of communication.
It took reddit a long time to come up with “Multis” where you put whatever themed channels under one group.
I don’t see why it couldn’t be done here.

3 out of 9 Supreme Court Justices agree!

I am certain, after paying to put my kid through college, that student loans are more than $12,000.
He graduated from a state school in 2018, his tuition was $10,000 a year, and he had a scholarship that paid $5,000 a year. I paid the other $5,000, laundered through my Amazon card for points. ;) But if we had done a loan, it would have been $20K.
So problem #1 - I’m not buying the stated number about how many people it will help. $12K is NOTHING when it comes to student loans.
Problem #2 is how much of that sub-$12K loan is still out there after 10 years.
In the end, it doesn’t matter since it’s all shut down anyway.
I say this as someone who has had multiple sub-$12,000 loans and never taken over 10 years to pay off.
I remember when this happened, and I was stunned. There are only 133 people in the town and the vast majority of them are black, it should have been a self solving problem to throw out the white minority.

When I was in school we had earthquake drills and stop drop and roll. My parents had “Duck and Cover”.
Not sure how this is any different other than being potentially more useful.
