If you go for the hat trick, may Gord find mercy in your heart to annex the TI region on your march back.

On the human rights. Now cut the shit. Cognitive empathy is a learned skill one can practice. Try.

Messy. Damnable. Pragmatism is hell, not cowardice. Trump is not a clay that can be worked on. He will go all in with what Israel is doing. With no alternative, if the lesser evil saves a life I’ll shake hands with it and kiss it on either cheek.

More dominoes lined up this go around.

More safe guards have eroded since 2020. The Republicans that did not fall to heel have been replaced.

Last time he had less of a plan, and less institutional support. Now they have lists of supporters to fill the non-elected positions -those were the people that who slowrolled and resisted his worst policies before.

I’d like to be more optimistic, but this isn’t going to be a fair fight and the stakes are higher.

…We also sometimes eat other people when shit hits the fan. 🙁.

In many places an overdue will automatically become lost after ~2 weeks - ~3 months. Then you’d be charged the cost of the item and sometimes a processing fee to cover the costs of preparing a replacement book. If you have a lost book, still bring it in, I would happily waive fees up until the point the replacement order was placed. Libraries generally just want the books back.

It’s also when past speakers (and nominees) are voting for their candidate.

Yeah, was listening to BBC this morning -Tim Franks interviewing Israeli intelligence about allowing fuel through to get water pumps going again. It was very clear the answer was no, but they refused to say so directly. The interviewee became hostile and kept going on about how hamas uses these people as human shields. … Is the west supposed to think dying of thirst the more humanitarian option? Is that what they’re going for? jfc

I think until this year(?) South Koreans traditionally did something like this. You were born starting at 1 year old to count for your time kicking in gestation. There’s some groundwork for FL to follow.

Isn’t there also some drama about how the governor and the democratic establishment want different people in her seat? The establishment wants to wait for the election to get the more moderate Schiff, who’s a safer bet against lesser known progressives. But if the governor can appoint his progressive pick, as an incumbent they’ll have a better shot at sticking.

Well. In hell you’ll find company. The greed of capitalism is a violence, it a fair world it would be punished accordingly.

For peace of mind just avoid Stefanik’s district, some people call it Cantucky for a reason. 🥲.

Ya’ll do make a lovely casserole.

Beehaw defederated from shitworks around then (they are waiting for mod tools to refederate), you can see beehaw if you log out, or use a different instance.

What’s your take on cancer then? Imo it all comes down to the woman’s intent to carry. We carve out exceptions for intent in society all the time. But we live in a world that really really doesn’t like women making choices for themselves and will use any crutch it can to deny equal rights.

I can’t take your blood without your consent to save my life can I? Even if you were a murderer on death row and I was a saint, it’d be a crime. People understand bodily rights when it’s a kidney, when it’s a uterus they lose their damn mind.

I’d also recommend a recentish book about him and Lincoln called The Zealot and the Emancipator in case anyone wants some light reading. The politics around Bleeding Kansas feels relevant to the US today.

John Brown did nothing wrong. (except maybe a bit tactically at the end.)
