More weakened.

She was the VP and had the backing of the DNC, and even being somewhat unpopular that’s a pretty massive advantage.

And the democrats’ own analysis has shown that if Harris took a stand on Gaza she would have won easily, exactly as they were told before the election.

And if the democratic establishment had told Biden “you’re done” in (say) 2022/23, and had an actual primary (which Harris would have likely won in a walk) there would not have been the nasty taste of a coronation for people to contend with.

A crash of rhinoceroses.

A group of rooks (cousins of ravens and crows) is also called a parliament. There’s also “an exaltation of larks,” And my favorite: “a business of ferrets” which makes me imagine a burrow with wooden desks and a bunch of ferrets in green visors chattering at each other.

If my kid was speaking in front of the school board and subjected to that kind of harassment I’d be in jail right now.

Fixed the headline.

You can stand in front as a shield, but only then.

Oh shit, THE PLAYHOUSE!! Nooooo!

Also, the Vox/Netflix documentary series “Explained” had a genuinely good episode about billionaires. One of the things they brought up was that oligarchs store a lot of money in US real estate, like super-expensive NY condos.

“Add a difficulty selection? Be very clear about how challenging a game is? Fuck that, AI!!”

None of that RAM (or the GPUs) have been purchased. All that is just letters of intent or even flimsier agreements, there’s no contracts or actual money changing hands.

I have no problem with churches backing candidates, if they surrender their tax free status first.

Actually, churches should not be tax exempt anyway. If they’re doing good work in the community, they can open their books and apply for 501©3 status.

On the bad site there was a whole dontputyourdickinthat community.

Thanks!

Utterly horrendous page. Anyone have an archive or other non-pay/privacywalled link?

I know it’s just anecdotal evidence but every trans person I’ve known has been cool as hell.
