The problem is that this is a strategy, and it might work. The judge is showing signs of exasperation. The defense is laying the grounds for an appeal based on judicial bias. Viewed in that light, each time the judge interjects out of annoyance or exasperation is citable evidence. It's funny, but it is also rather dangerous.
isn't it only Empress at this point, which is the entire reason why she is tolerated?
States' Rights is a euphemism for the reactionary cause du jour. You can call them out for a contradiction, but at best they will just ignore you because they know and we know they're not talking about or concerned with the rights of states vs. federal mandate. Then there's always the threat that they will drop the euphemism and say that they want to punish promiscuous women and trans deviants. Trump has largely proven that the right doesn't have to watch its mouth near as much as they used to think. Rather than abandon their political identity, the majority of the "moderate" right will go along with the new framing. The only ones who lose out in this shift in rhetoric are women and trans people, who are now directly and publicly targeted not just by the reactionary fringes but by the right as a whole.
If you're wondering, yes, I absolutely lifted most of this from the Alt-Right Playbook, "The Death of a Euphemism"
if George Santos breathes, it's a lie. what I want to know is how he is still in Congress, voting
2024 is going great, and I can't wait for things to get even better in October!
oh shit we're all going to die, aren't we
so you say you always bring an empty cooler with you on a first date. that's interesting
Yes, and please back up as much as possible while you're there. If they take it from us, we build our own Internet Archive, with blackjack and hookers.
is it nothing? I bet it's nothing.
This book was where the series completely left the rails for me. So fucking bizarre.
the reason why they're doing this and the reason why it probably won't save the product line are the same: the only reason people were buying Amazon TV devices and smart displays was to side load apps
Doctors watch Grey's Anatomy for the fantasy, not because it's good medicine. Long, long ago when I paid attention, it was the general consensus that Grey's had a lousy grasp on medical reality. Remember the ghost sex arc? However, the show that I watched that doctors said was surprisingly accurate is Scrubs, a sitcom.
Well there it is, showing advertisers their shit next to typical X content works. Start sharing those screen grabs and bleed out the cancer.
unsurprising, I don't think he ever knew he was running
You don't. See the first (introduction) video from the Alt-Right Playbook. Basically, there is a real risk that even if you "win" the argument, the red-pill derp just gets angry and takes it out on a convenient female target. The energy is better spent finding ways to counter red-pill ideology that don't involve engaging directly with these people.
what a wild ride
GOP posts nearly $92 million bond in E. Jean Carroll defamation case
Because after Super Tuesday, the RNC's primary function is being Trump's legal fund.
Legacy media is dying, and the hangers on are old corporate types with a "conservative" bias and agenda. The same shit happened at CNN a couple of years ago, right? Hyper polarization is not going away. It's the new normal.
Excellent choice of a starter distro. I hope you have fun
can't afford to get my old man back fixed, but rich people dogs gonna live forever
getting bird shit in my mouth. no, really. I have a recurring (but not frequent) "nightmare" about getting bird shit in my mouth through diverse accidents. there's even an incredibly vivid taste associated with it that I can recall when I'm awake. I'm guessing that toddler me took a gamble for science and wound up scarred for life.
morning glory?
the only solution: fight to the death. let C-SPAN air it
Oooof.
Arcade Fire: Win Butler is a sex pest.
Brand New: Jessie is a groomer of underage girls.
Marilyn Manson: his videos from 2009- pretty much lay it out in the open, but he's the fucking worst physical and emotional abuser of women. Just a shit human being.
I have stopped purchasing these artists merch and they have all been removed from my Spotify. Their records now live in my basement. When I must listen, I listen to my personal rips, alone.
I'm wondering if AI can already solve this. I'm not even some crazy AI fanboy, I'm just thinking about the possibility of predictive AI being able to interpret compression artifacts to determine what forms would collapse into a particular pattern.

This is completely unsurprising. Now ask him to find Utah.
Yeah, there aren't many Pumpkins fans left these days, but the Internet Archive still manages to have a collection that beats the Smashing Pumpkins Audio Archive from the early 2000s.
"keep digging"
the only for tha spicy meatball
Yes, that horrible jackass. He might have good ideas on paper, but he was a miserable "candidate" whose only potential was to muddy up a shit show, and he couldn't even manage that.
what are the exact numbers for the next Powerball drawing, in winning order?
