Normally, I’d be outraged but I sort of feel bad for Tiffany. Outrage is there too but I feel bad for her. She’s clearly the red headed stepchild of the known Trumpitos. We all joke about how Trump has a crush on Ivanka. Tiffany doesn’t even get that.
It’s not Sinclair this time but it’s just as bad. Nexstar wants to merge with Tegna and create a new Sinclair, basically.
Linode. I don’t trust the parent company but who can you trust? It’s super easy to setup and like $5 a month for a small scale project that isn’t mission critical.
Note: I would never use it for a paid or really important thing. If you expect your Boy Scout group to have 50,000 users one day, it’s not fit for purpose. It’s more than fine for a little league schedule or whatever.
He can come to New Orleans if he wants to find out. All this bluster and can’t even take a street car 7 blocks or whatever.
Thank you. I was trying to remember and my brain was like, “Not emu. What’s the ratite from S. America called again? Fuck! I just saw a whole science YouTube video about ratite evolution like 2 days ago.” And then I just assumed it would be exotic.
The most hospitalized man in history does it again! He’s the Da Vinci of hospitalizations! Who but Bolsonaro could get bit by an exotic bird while quarantined for COVID?
This isn’t a Jordon vs. Lebron or Pele vs. Maradona type debate. There can be no debate. He’s the illest to ever do it.
The article says it could result in a fine that’s based on the value of the damage. You’d think having a famous artist’s work would increase the value of the building.
I know NYC is a major city and media hub but I’ve never seen a bunch of bozos so unable to handle a municipal election before. And in a municipality that routinely elects the most embarrassing mayors. The Onion even has an evergreen article about NYC mayors. https://theonion.com/de-blasio-well-well-well-not-so-easy-to-find-a-may-1847151201/
RIP US Democracy (aged 1965 or so to 1980 something). We hardly knew ye.
Imagine the piss pant stains if Trump supporters were forced to take the Metro or a street car to occupy a major city. Any civil war would have to have a regional hub with microwave pancakes and ionized water at their neighborhood (now closed) Bed Bath and Beyond for whatever moron troop movements anyone planned.
To be clear, I hope people who think little kids should be exposed to diphtheria to find out who is trans don’t rise up. But they won’t win a whole war even if they cause more human suffering than every “East India” company combined.
America was founded by tobacco companies and people so weird about religion, they were told to leave Europe even though mass communication wasn’t invented yet and they probably could have just been slightly less weird a kilometer away. Our justice system was probably always going to favor disgraced sex pests.
I got one at a CVS in Louisiana but had to have my doctor call in a prescription. Insurance covered it. There’s also apparently some weird supply issues. A colleague (who is over 65 and clearly eligible) had an appointment at a large hospital and they told her they were out of COVID vaccines but had plenty of flu shots. She was ultimately able to reschedule and get a Pfizer shot but they were still out of the Moderna one and whatever the non-mRNA shot is called.
It all sort of smacks of disorganization (possibly deliberate incompetence considering we have a loon with brain worms in the driver’s seat). But it seems like some people are having access issues and other people just waltz into a Walgreens/CVS and get their booster in minutes.
Well, the good news is that we all know centrists will side with capital. The last step before fascism is almost always cowardly centrists trying and failing to maintain their shreds of status in a world they can’t understand because they lack a binding moral framework.
That’s actually the bad news, I guess. But at least we know it’s coming.
Is anyone in A Clockwork Orange Amish?
They should do a “Victims of Communism” style statue for him except it’s victims of people who don’t think germs are real.
I’m expecting December/January to be when Americans will really start to see widespread price rise and shortages. Every big company was trying to import/warehouse enough stock to get through the holiday shopping season without paying tariffs. But at some point, the price hikes are coming.
It’ll be noticeable before December/January for anything that can’t be stacked in a warehouse or frozen or whatever. But that’s not going to last forever. If nothing else, Kona, Hawaii is the only place in the US where coffee beans can be grown. Even well-off people will notice when coffee costs more.
The other way a partisan gerrymander can backfire is that there’s fewer truly safe seats. So a smaller shift can cause a wave election. Like, to squeeze every drop from a gerrymander, you don’t create 80% GOP, 20% Dem districts; you make several 55% GOP, 45% Dem districts. It doesn’t take as seismic of a shift to flip an aggressively Gerrymandered map.
New Orleans might as well just send him the phone book.
Historically, the Senate has a tradition where the Senators from the state submit a “blue slip” with their opinions on it. If they don’t submit one, it can delay a hearing or kill the nomination. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_slip_(U.S._Senate)
Whether it matters changes all the time — see the history part of the Wikipedia article’s History section — but other Senators want theirs respected so sometimes it does. If nothing else, it can give a Senator who doesn’t want the nominee cover from bucking party leadership.
Oh, thank you for the correction. I just did a cursory look and didn’t see them being involved.
