I’m not.

Lol, of course they still get paid!

It’s clearly written by somebody who has never filed or prosecuted a fucking case before.

Nah, remember that WWII sabotage book that said, “do what you’re ordered to do, but do it as badly as possible” … ?

Will congressional Republicans get serious about restraining Kennedy’s perverse policies or forcing his resignation?

Betteridge’s law: “Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no.”

They want their speech out of their hate-infested echo chambers so that they can start infecting more of the populace.

As someone pointed out, this is the start of the block warden-spies the Stasi ran in East Germany: spy on and report your neighbors, and maybe you’ll get an extra ration of eggs this month …

Oh, they’ll “release” it all right. But they’ll narrow down the scope as much as possible to some combination of “things that have already been released”, “things that can’t be released” (ie, the grand jury records, which are pretty much never released and which require judicial approval), , and “new things the public hasn’t seen yet but which are redacted to near total blackness”.

Try versus.com . Put in your selection criteria, it’ll give you a list of phones that meet that criteria. You can pull them up together to compare features, and they have an overall rating as well.

Most recently, that guy who shot four people in Minnesota (two politicians and their spouses), killing one couple and leaving the other pair wounded.

Funny how when a liberal politician is shot, they’ve been “killed”, but when a conservative influencer is shot, it’s “assassination”.

Why is there a pile of clothing there?

So had I!

In general, the new shots usually aren’t ready until the end of September/beginning of October, so pharmacies may be using the last of last year’s stock. I know when I got my spring booster in May, neither NovaVax or Moderna were available, so we went with Pfizer as well.

I’m holding off my fall shot until mid-October, so I’ll have maximum effectiveness through the the of February, but it does mean I have to be a bit careful while cases are currently rising in much of the US.

Is any of that money actually going to the authors, or is this just like a fine they hand over and they donate some money to a charity or something?

Map of protests and rallies.

Our maternal death rates are the best if we only count white men!

Considering that he’s actually a senior Israelis official, he didn’t need asylum, and we all knew he wasn’t going to return.

Well, let’s see, you’ve closed planned parenthood and outlawed abortion, so more women have to carry sicker babies to term. You’ve gutted Medicaid and lower-cost health insurance, so women can’t afford to get themselves or their babies treated when they become sick. You’ve gutted reproductive services, women’s health services, and prenatal services, so even women carrying healthy babies who can afford healthcare will be generally less healthy. The pandemic reduced the overall number of qualified medical staff in all fields, making access to care even harder to get, and you’ve made that even harder by offering some of the lowest wages in the nation and enacting laws that are hostile, to medical providers, to women, to parents and families, and to public health. Your state is, and has been for decades, the literal definition of social murder.

So now you’re worried and have declared a “public health emergency”, great. What exact, explicit, concrete steps are you going to take to reverse that trend?

What’s that I hear? crickets.

“Oh, we need to release them. I have no problem releasing it, but you’ve got to go through the judicial,” Collins responded.

By which he means the grand jury testimony, which is not going to be released because grand jury testimony is pretty much never released. Anything referring to the grand jury testimony is a red herring, and anyone trying to pass that off as a serious answer should not be trusted.

Ask your friends and family as well. Someone has an old laptop/desktop from school or an old job stuck in a closet. A lot of people give up when their machines become too slow, but they don’t bother with basic maintenance to see if that will speed it up: virus checks, uninstalling un-needed programs, clearing caches, defragging the hard drive, etc. I have one friend ditched a PC because it ran too slowly and when I checked it out they had two antivirus programs competing with each other, making it impossible to do anything else. Other people take the fact that the battery or charging cable died as a signal to get a replacement.
