“Bottom line: if you win, it means you’re unpopular!” - galaxy-brained Dem strategist who lost Michigan and gave us all Trump
Do they even make jeans anymore that don’t blow out at the crotch after 1-2 yrs occasional use? Just so sick of flimsy-assed clothing. Garbage.
The article describes Republicans being petty shits, praising Trump for capital projects funded by Biden’s Infrastructure bill. Then the author congratulates themself for also giving Trump some praise and tries to make it a “both sides” article without ever reflecting on the lopsidedness of it all.
I’m on it as well, seems to be a pretty widespread thing. Then they added me to a “Spies on Moderation Lists” list, which I thought was pretty funny. 😄
My daughter, in the meantime, made “Hugh,” the capybara. And a yuzu fruit.
This is Pierre. I made him from a popular kids’ “learn to crochet” kit, it’s my first time learning any of these stitches. He has some knot errors and slight asymmetries but I think he’s perfect just how he is. My daughter was very proud of me.
This is a *very well-written* article if you have friends/family who are falling for the “Tucker has changed, he really has!” act. I don’t pay enough attention to have picked up on the glaring differences btw two interviews in a week, but @parkermolloy.com did the work here.
My goodness we needed this SO BADLY here in Colorado. It doesn’t “erase” the severe drought conditions this year but it puts a dent in them.
Yeah, and when even the tiniest tax is proposed to begin to reverse that trend in the slightest, Forbes is always gonna do this:
Gawd, that's annoying. I just pasted 2 paragraphs of a human-written email I'm sending out (brief summary of a project). Out of curiosity I ran it through an "AI detector." It claims "High probability of being flagged as AI-generated content." I wrote every word myself. No em-dashes. F these guys.
Yes because historically nothing soothes people more than chatting with an automated bot on the phone that has no idea how to solve actual problems.
Is there latency for labels being *removed*? I picked “he/him” to replace the separate “he” & “him” labels, & de-selected the latter two. “He/him” showed up almost instantly but now all 3 persist, despite only 1 being currently selected. Do I wait, or is it a bug? Not a big deal, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
On a local neighborhood message board in Colorado. To our knowledge ICE hasn't set foot in this particular neighborhood yet (well outside Denver metro). But they know it's coming. There are a few MAGAs in the neighborhood but local organizers have already stood up to them previously (and won).
There's a "Settings" button there but it just sends me to a paid subscription prompt, lolsob. It isn't selectable on the slide. I can't click -> delete. It's just "there" now. I can't "Undo" to before it'd appeared. I can only delete the slide entirely and re-create my cover slide from scratch now.
