If full time Walmart employees need government assistance programs to afford food and pay their rent, is it not Walmart who is leaning on government assistance?
It was pretty clear JD overstayed his welcome before they took office. Arguably before the campaign was over. The donut shop video was a classic.
I feel like Tucker is going to be active as a politician and it’s going to destroy the country if we don’t see a federal Mamdani-tier populist before it happens. Tucker’s extremely effective at achieving rhetorical goals while also being an absolute Nazi shitstain and above all liar, who has never showed his true face to a camera.
5 months, that’s almost 14 whole scarmuccis.
SCOTUS: “Until it happens we can’t determine if it’s harmful.” Thanks sugarbabies. The world’s oldest democracy in action everybody.
Gays for Trump never had much prominence and you speak as if they make up a sizable chunk of a convention of 20k bigoted people. 3.8% percent of adults in 2016 identified as lgbtq and an estimated 14% of those voted for Trump that year. That means statistically there would be 99 lgbtq people there out of 20k, but:
On the night of July 17—the Sunday that check-in for the convention began—there was a 120 percent increase in users online in the area, more than all previous evenings in July. As of last Wednesday, a representative from Grindr tells Broadly, “more than a thousand guys have used the app near the Quicken Loans Arena.” The total attendance of the RNC is estimated to have been roughly 20,000 people, so this data suggests about five percent of attendees used Grindr during the convention.
If their data is to believed, that means that the stadium had over 10x the predicted amount of conservative lgbtq folks relative to the general population and survey results of preferred parties by noncloseted individuals and, in fact, had not only more gay individuals than the general population by percentage (which seems crazy for 14% support), but that they all used grindr, an app with less than 3 million global daily users at the time. It also doesn’t filter out the few women at that sausage fest.
It would appear that grindr has decided in this environment that it’s better to keep their head down. Obviously a typical major service like grindr uses cloudflare. They are not going to “crash” as a result of overusage in an area because any concentrated traffic is easily spread across their network and overloading traffic is handled by cloudflare seamlessly. Unless grindr is actively giving location Hotspot maps for every event I think any dismissal of the article’s evidence is in service of narrative rather than evidence, ironically.
I don’t think you read your own article. Joe was already picked and he was referring to the runoffs. The actual situation was that Trump was promising the checks and then when he lost the Republicans blocked the funds for it as punishment for not electing him again. Biden supporting them and needed a majority to overcome the block. The first part of the checks was released under Trump still in December, but no more disbursement was being allowed by congress.
Your suposition is that the power of the purse still applies here. Trump has operated the executive as a collective slush fund, many times using horrible arguments that fail in court and then proceeding anyways. Also he’s allocated money from military coup projects like Venezuala to funds not under congressional control illegally.
Bernies plan is to first expand Medicare to all ages. Going off Trump’s logic this would be done by directing CMS by executive order to adjust the rates, the treasury department to allocate the necessary trust fund expenditures, the IRS to apply the necessary taxes, and the justice department to aggressively target every single possible violation in the private health insurance industry. Bernie’s actual plan is to use the bully pulpit as intended to pressure congress to act in accordance with those changes ahead of time, completely different. That’s because Trump moves to erode government into the pockets of the rich and Bernie seeks to build it stronger to benefit everyone. Executive overreach expansion has only been applied to benefit the rich effectively where everywhere else it had failed.
It can be a meme and also be based in reality.

Downdetector isn’t a good source, which is the origin of the Dallas claims of outage, but Grindr itself is.
This is an old article referring to Paxton winning the gop primary. Vote in the actual election on November 3rd.
Nothing more cringey than obsessing over brain chemicals when you preach anti-scientific bullshit on the regular. The title of the article is also pretty dogshit, but probably speaks to a different person being in charge of the title than the body. He hasn’t backed down at all from the sentiment of his statements, which is that human gender terms don’t define an almighty god. Not that hard to understand if you’re not seething behind your micropenis syndrome worried that people getting gender affirming care are gonna be bigger than you too.
This is the nature of a defederated website. There are multiple hosts who all act independently, but have decided to source from each other. Upvotes come in from instances you aren’t on who refuse deletions or process them on a delay.
This means that Lemmy is very difficult to pull information back from, if it’s even possible at all. There are no doubt instances that are almost solely functioning as archives as well that may not even make themselves known except through requests to maybe only one ither instance. It’s great for anticensorship, but not great if you say something goofy you didn’t mean and are now getting downvotes from the instances that don’t believe in edits or whatever it may be.
Deletions not be honored is also pretty common generally, because there are accounts who create posts and then delete their accounts. On reddit it’s throwaway accounts, but on lemmy.world at least it destroys the posts permanently and then all of the engagement is locked under the nonexistent post which will be purged.
I think the best balance is instances allow deletions by admins/mods/the user, but do not allow deletions for account purging by the user. I don’t know how many flags there are in the data transmissions between instances to know the origin of the action or what button the user clicked.
They’re pretty clean so long as it’s indoors and ideally not in a bathroom. There’s a massive difference of a new paper towel and a reused towel. I wear contacts and it doesn’t take much to notice residue on my hands/eyelid area.
We’ve let death cultists chose policy for us for decades, so how is a death cultist with his own cult a significant departure from our standards?
Love this dystopia we’re building where a candidate can make endless money by speaking to issues people care about, gaining popularity, and then dropping out mysteriously. /s
The fact it’s now built into news coverage faster than any emerging market ever shows how much money is behind it, and how juicy the oligarchs view it as a method of further extraction.
I think we all kinda knew DHS wouldn’t be able to fully utilize such a massive budget increase via staffing expenses. This is what it will be predominantly used for: Settling civil rights lawsuits.
A system that allows money to make up for rights being stolen is one in which those who need money are silent and those who don’t are heard.
You also could also attempt different patterns if you feel it’s the tip causing localized heating. On a flat print spiral is going to make the center hotter than the outside. Diagonal sweeps are going to do the opposite. If it’s on the side then sweeps w/ length for cold, against for hot.
Edit: since you’re using a .2 nozzle I would hazard a guess that you’re experiencing cold issues rather than excessive heat. Slowing down would make a big difference or switching to a more complicated pattern that spends more time in each area. Seems like you’ve got the right approach
It looks like the effects of heat warping if it’s all confined to the middle. First step is to allow the bed to heat up longer imo. The center might holding heat better or worse than the rest and needs longer to equalize. Is your printer enclosed? If so that should solve it. If it’s not then you may have excessive airflow across the bed.
Makes sense, she is incredibly Islamophobic, antisemetic, and above all, a slave to the Ellisons. Paying their fair share as the richest people in America would be unreasonable to her.
Well I’ll be damned. There was an interview. https://youtu.be/ysMKki0V3SM?is=ZfZYF8RUiWgsTn4o
They had a failed attempt to pressure congress which generates 600 dollar checks. Then 1400 was later added to that to “complete” the promise, so while 2600 is better than 2000, it wasn’t scummy except to the extent that the Republicans in congress immediately turned on the American people once it was politically advantageous not to deliver.
100% isn’t my standard, but I think saying “elect my guys and get money” when the intention is to actually do it when he has power to (and he did) rather than Trump saying it when he absolutely can do it right now with full control of all branches of government. In other words, “do this so we want to help you.” Vs “do this so we can help you” very different.
