Isn’t that just a merkin?

There aren’t many, but I can name at least a few like Tim Miller, Adam Kitzinger, Geoff Duncan, and Sarah Longwell.

Enough to make a big swing politically? Maybe not. But they are out there.

If you enjoy reading, !Books@Lemmy.world is pretty active place to discuss what you’re reading and review it or get recommendations.

I try to post significant price drops routinely to !ebookdeals@literature.cafe as well. I mostly post ones that I have heard good things about / read myself and really enjoyed and are valid at all 3 big US ebook retailers, Kobo, Barnes & Noble, and Amazon at the same time or Humble Bundles. There’s no rule against others posting deals they endorse for other regions or other books, I just wanted to avoid it being a firehouse of spammy links and I only shop US Stores.

Stare Decisis is for losers.

That’s false, in 2000 there was 84,999. Elvis faked his own death to get a piece of the impersonator action.

The quote of the night: “President Trump, the question was…”

Yes, an incredibly racist ruling is a great comparison to dismantling the administrative state, removing personal healthcare choices, and regulatory authority.

If there wasn’t a convicted Felon on the stage right now, the mishandling by the moderators would be the biggest criminality right now.

There’s literally no fact checking going on by the moderators. This is so dumb.

Also, Biden seems to be warming up.

It’s actually not, which makes it a worse response. It wasn’t overturned by a court which is what state decisis applies to (Stare decisis is the doctrine that courts will adhere to precedent in making their decisions.) Dred Scott was overturned by the 13th & 14th amendments.

Can I petition to just have you adopt all of Minnesota?

A Tweet from Frank Luntz: “My group of undecided voters are moving away from Trump as he gets more and more vicious towards Biden. They complain that this sounds like a senior citizen bingo hall argument.”

I hope one of the tracked statistics is Trumps lies per minute speaking.

The debate was too late to hire a child to read the questions. Would have conflicted with bed time.

“Trump admits he suffers from cardiomegaly”

My mom warned me about people getting the milk for free.

How much does a cow herd charge? Is it really that expensive that it would cause somebody to die?

Biden needs a Smith Brothers Cough Drop or Sucrets.

It’s all right-wing terminally-online stream of consciousness…

No, we’re also choosing who they will be surrounded by in charge of departments. Biden will have sane people in charge, Trump will have Project 2025.

Felon!

Oh yeah, Frank is highly flawed; but his new “job” as an undecided focus group “expert” gives me a little hope.

It’s a joke, but I’m 43 and my mom knew others who were pregnant around the same time and told to smoke by actual doctors so they’d have a smaller baby and easier birth.

On a related note, I also wonder I wonder how many older people self-treated ADHD/ADD with nicotine without realizing what was going on.

If Alito and Thomas can master the field of history in such a short time, what makes you think they can’t do the same with the field of medicine‽

Wait, I thought Trump said his name was Ronnie Johnson?

Has anyone investigated the consequences of all the sunlight that’s leaked into the environment because of this disaster? What sort of clean up are we looking at and how long will it take?

I can too. I put my hand on the input device and the signals my brain sends translates that into the movement of the mouse to a specific location on the screen.

I mean, think of the chaotic implications of letting states determine who is eligible to be on their ballots by following a federal standard laid out in the constitution.

Dogs and cats living together! Mass hysteria!

That’s why I only use “hunter2” for mine. With the number, it’s more secure.

Fiskars the blade company also makes Gerber products. The knives, not the Baby food.

There’s a really good short form podcast by a couple food scientists in the USA and they covered this one saying not risky. https://www.riskyornot.co/episodes/548-cleaning-the-toilet-brushes-in-the-dishwasher-top-rack

Do I like this? No. But I also don’t like that any other entity can do this either. But if we’re going to ban the government from doing this, we should also be banning the sale of this data to anybody.

Sounds like the Boebert crime family is at it again.

It was discovered apparently when he went in for mercury poisoning from eating too much tuna. Mercury poisoning… in an anti-vaxxer… who has cited mercury as a reason to avoid vaccines…
