It's the kids that wanted an education from a normal school that are getting hurt

DeSantis is now using more public funds to push conservative christian "education". If kids who want to go to a religious school enroll here, this is a win for the christian right

We should claim that the Chik-Fil-A mascot is transitioning next and watch their heads spin

The matches imitate a video game. Two TikTokers stream side-by-side, divided into "red" and "blue" teams. As a timer counts down from five minutes, they go to wild and kooky lengths to get their fans to send them these gifts.

The creativity to create things like these battles is interesting

We really are fleshy machines that just need our buttons pushed the right way to get us to obsess over almost anything

As mentioned in another thread, there is a paintless dent repair video on YT of a fix done to the corner of a Rivian rear bumper

The owner claimed that he was quoted $41K. To do the work, they would need to cut the body all the way up to the front of the roof

The PDR fix was close to perfect in this case

I switched to Liftoff from Jerboa.

There are a few features that either don't exist or I haven't found (jump to next comments thread), but it's worked really well overall.

For context, I use Relay when I'm on Reddit

Counter with an amendment that also reduces Greene and co's salary to $1

Or to make a stronger point, make it 50% of their current salary so their supporters know how much money they make

He didn't just accidentally enter the wrong home, he was forcibly breaking into the home when he was shot. Even breaking a window to open the door from the inside.

Tragic as he was likely just intoxicated and confused, but understandable that the homeowner would use force to defend himself

While the woman was on the phone with police, Donofrio broke a glass window on the front door "and reached inside to manipulate the doorknob," at which point the male resident fired the shot through the broken window that struck Donofrio in his upper body, according to police

The best scenario is conservatives keep giving him their money, and he loses

Or just one of those magic 8 balls to make decisions

Or even worse - PIPs exist as a paper trail that that shows the employee knew they were on the chopping block

I've rarely seen people's PIP fairly evaluated; they are just fired at the end of the PIP term

I throw the "ok boomer" back at my teen kids when I'm sorting out tech problems for them, just like I do for my actual boomer parents 😆

This wasn't a punishment or sentence.

He was literally breaking through the door to enter the house.

What was the home owner supposed to do? Hope he became non-violent once he got in? Challenge him to a game of chess? Declare a set of non-lethal rules and duke it out?

The homeowner has a right to not be attacked in his own home ffs

I think his analogy is accidentally spot on. ICE cars are going to be around for a while

I find AirBnB to be cheaper when renting an entire house vs 3 or 4 hotel rooms. But an apartment vs a hotel room is even or the hotel is cheaper

You nailed it. The belief in "I got mine, f u" isn't tied to any sexual orientation or race.

It just doesn't work out for the minorities since most conservative-minded people are also xenophobes

I'd wager that these conservative minorities are probably xenophobes too

Their claims to their base that "if they are able to do this to us, they could do it to you" should be the wake up call that snaps the MAGA cult out of its blind devotion.

How the average MAGA cultist can look at Trump et al and feel that they are part of the same group is mind boggling.

They are in agreement about the hate, it's money they scrap over

They probably don't care about Twitter - it's just a way to insult Musk because he is obviously invested in the"X" rebranding

The heat pump I just had installed in SW Ontario hands over heating duty at -10C to the gas furnace

My understanding is that businesses can refuse services which conflict with their beliefs, morals, etc, not broadly refuse to serve people

So you can't refuse someone for being a MAGA clown, but you could refuse to print MAGA shirts for a customer

Reason #21 that my mid-life crisis hasn't led to me buying a motorbike yet

Muslims could stop Quran burning by just not reacting to the obvious acts of incitement

They could just drop abortion and focus on attacking trans and gay rights

The artists have found a good way to lose support for arts funding

Same-same, but different, but still same

An eye for an eye would see rockets hit Moscow and St Petersburg

Is it reasonable to surmise that's what happened here

This reeks of Scientology from front to back

Just had a Marketing colleague try to make the case for a SaaS solution telling us the justification was clearly articulated in our company-specific deck he created

Reading the deck and then checking the revision history, it's clear that buddy just pasted in the vendor's brochure ware

Some parts of the business have no place in actually selecting tech

I very much hope this is true

That just allows people to be overtly bigoted and crated an apartheid society. And we did have this: "no blacks", "no Irish"...

Fox just used it to back their generational culture war theme for another segment

That is way too small a car to be in when an elephant decides to go ham on your ride

Well, that was a twist ending.

I route all my sensitive chatting to personal texts to avoid the scenario you and your coworkers encountered

Forcing a woman to carry and deliver a child often forces them to remain dependent on their partner, thus increasing his control over her

They were banking on Trump's coup to work. If he had regained power, none of these people would have been prosecuted

(e: "nine" to "none")

Israel could also stop the annexation of Palestinian land and the murders of Palestinian civilians, but doesn't

The only reason Israel hasn't wiped out Gaza and the West Bank and taken those areas as part of Israel is that they believe that a full-on intense genocide would be too much for the world to let go. Whether or not that fear is true is something we may find out now in Gaza

It's nothing special - just digital snake oil to make some money and rile up the uninformed

Tesla does a lot of things right - their cars are amongst the fastest around and their charging network is superior to any others to date

But their build quality is poor and their autonomous driving features are overstated compared to what they can deliver

Plus their service support is limited due to their direct sell model - there aren't many places to get Tesla's repaired

Tesla did make EVs mainstream though. Consider that their cars outsell popular ICE cars even though the Tesla's cost 50%+ more

So, it's a mixed bag with a lot of their customers, and some outsiders, absolutely fanatical about them, some people hating them by proxy because of Musk, and some people 50/50 on them like any car brand

The right wing media didn't do a bad job reporting it, they used it to push a wider narrative deliberately

Chip him and send him to Mars.

Make him drive to the launchpad in a Model X on full "auto pilot" too
