This is incredibly fucked up. Handmaid’s tale was a documentary.

I mean, no? In case it wasn’t clear from the article, these are the people that voted for this shit. It’s also ironic they’re already on Medicare (in their 20s) as it is. This should be an ‘I get it now’ moment for these families, but they’ll learn nothing.

U.S. is sending a carrier strike group closer to Israel and will begin supplying munitions starting today (www.nbcnews.com)

The U.S. military is moving an aircraft carrier strike group and military aircraft closer to Israel as a show of support, and will also begin supplying Israel with munitions and other military supplies immediately, said Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin....

Point of note - it’s just ‘Ukraine’, not the Ukraine. ‘The Ukraine’ is a label used by those who see the nation as a region part of Russia. Small, but important thing I had to change when referring to it as well.

These specifically are invasive species to these states and negatively impact the ecosystem. It won’t affect native species.

Edit to add that these mosquitos are the carriers of yellow and dengue fever.

The funny thing is this article talks about kids. My Mom is in her 70s and I maintain her phone and she currently uses a pixel 6, so it’s the latest os of course. Whenever I see her, I have to declutter her notifications. They’re constant. Apps and websites have gotten more noisy and aggressive in prompting users to enable notifications or sending constant push crap and I don’t think most people know how to disable them while retaining what they’re actually wanting to get.

I finally have a void kitty myself and I amuse my friends by sending pictures that state there is a cat in this picture. He is so incredibly light absorbent it is insane.

You can also pay for it and get a refund, which is what I did. It isn’t anywhere close to being finished.

And you still can! Only now you can see Brand, errr, Snow as the narcissistic womanizing asshole that he is!

I bet the deer are doing terrible though.

What I’ve noticed with my partners 13 year old is how little is actually taught. During covid, he got daily lesson plans for home teaching which took a couple of hours at most. He’s been back in person now for 2 years. He gets no homework. He doesn’t seem to be taught or retain any kind of knowledge, yet his grades are ‘good’. Like, he can hardly tell you what countries make up North America, let alone where stares are or anything actually meaningful like history of… Anything. It seems to me the bar has just been lowered. We keep waiting for this to flip, or school to get ‘hard’ but it doesn’t seem to be.

Apple is winning the communications game and I’m afraid I’ll wind up switching once they go usb c. I’m sick and tired of the iMessage walled garden when messaging nearly everyone I know, and also tried of the hit or miss debacle of rcs. I will miss the customization freedom (currently using Niagara launcher and it’s super unique ux), but Android phones have deleted all of the other benefits that separated them from iPhones, like expandable storage, ir blasters, headphone jacks, etc. I hate to jump on the bandwagon, but I’m sick of waiting for this all to be worked out. Before anyone says to use signal or Whatsapp, etc, it just isn’t a standard here in the US. Folks will never switch off iMessage.

I don’t know what you’re referring to

I’m literally the only person I know who uses any of these platforms. A new messaging service out of those won’t ever be on their radar.

Amazon is seeing some employees quit instead of moving to a new state as part of relocation mandate (www.cnbc.com)

Exactly this. Also, the market has cooled off now with more people looking for employment, so if they need to rehire, it will be cheaper.

Coffeemonkepants ,

Thank you. Was going to be my comment as well. And we’re talking fractions of a percent.

“Goods prices have abated…” The fuck they have. Also stop blaming inflation on wage increase. Most of it was caused by opportunistic greed of those aforementioned ‘goods prices’.

Our? Where? In the US? Certainly not in the US. By any measure. Math scores are the lowest they’ve been in decades, same with science. Nevermind all of the fascist 1984 book banning and burning nonsense happening in certain places. These kids are not smarter.

I have a handheld marine vhf radio with a removable battery that I can throw in the ocean and it will work and continue to work for days. Don’t believe the bs the manufacturers tell you.

Since you actually seem to be asking… There is no gerrymandering at the federal level in the presidential election. You could argue that the electoral voting system is somehow a form of this, but it isn’t the same as intentionally drawing districts to mathematically skew the advantage to the party drawing the map. That said, because electoral votes are based upon congressional representation, they do weigh smaller, emptier states more heavily. US senators are entirely free from gerrymandering as they are directly elected by popular vote. Small, empty states do have more power as a result and by design, for better or worse.

I honestly think he desperately wanted to be a porn star or something. Like, he really is maniacally obsessed with ‘x’. He’s such a complete fucking tool.

No matter how many times you post this, you aren’t going to counter a century of bad deals and predatory behavior. Car dealers have zero place in the market stream any longer.

Super nice guy and super talented. I used to go to the society of illustrators in NYC for their life drawing nights and he’d be there pretty often painting and drawing. Nice to everyone and a good artist!

I’m not sure how informed any 13 year old is, so this doesn’t concern me - what concerns me is that most 12-15 year olds are just putting in massive hours on this nonsense. My partner’s 13 yr old spends, no exaggeration, 8 hours/day on TikTok. If not more. I just started looking at access time on my pi-hole and router out of curiosity and it is disturbing. He is not an outlier.

Which couch will they look in to find all that money??

I believe it’s the Samsung s23 ultra. As others have said though, the number is largely nonsense. My 20Mp mirrorless slr takes far better pictures and it simply comes down to sensor size.

YSK: You should dry off beef before cooking. Doing so promotes the Maillard Reaction, which will make the meat taste and look better. (www.seriouseats.com)

Why YSK: When you cook meat, any water on the surface must first evaporate before much browning can occur. You want to get as much of a Maillard reaction as possible in the limited cooking time you have before the meat reaches the correct internal temperature. Removing the moisture first means that the heat of the cooking...

You can and should actually salt your steak several hours before cooking, leaving them uncovered in the fridge. Water will be drawn out, and then reabsorbed along with the salt. Dry the surface and salt again if desired right before cooking.
