He’s gonna take a sharpie to the constitution
True. He could end up appointing six total SCOTUS judges…
At least he can’t run in 2028 now…
Now we get to see it play out. All the folks saying he was kidding about ______. Let’s see. Now we’ll see…
We’re going to miss Lina Khan’s FTC action and the Dem FCC, among so many other things. Watch for those internet bills to go up and get more confusing. Goodbye EPA. Farewell DOE and our children’s future.
At least a few states codified womens’ choice!
And I was so loving Lina Khan’s FTC, asking
among other things…

Some do like it, but I’m with you; I skip the logo’d clothing.
A band is not the same as a luxury fashion brand.
One is exploited by massive corporations, gets a single digit percentage of the profits they generate, gets known by word of mouth (or T-shirt) among fans, and creates a piece of culture.
The other is a (usually massive) corporation, exploits low paid workers, is a status symbol for the rich and the people who want to appear as rich, and sometimes they make an item that could technically be considered a piece of culture.
Advertising for and/or showing your support for them are very different things that imply different things, for different reasons.
Wearing band merch implies support for their musical stylings, a connection with the creative output of the band, and possibly their world view.
Wearing a logo-festooned piece of couture clothing implies wealth and status, and (often) complicity with sweat shops.
While the two previous paragraphs seem to be similar, because of the first two paragraphs, they are quite different.
I’m always hearing about enhanced privacy laws that only apply to government workers, leaving the rest of us out in the cold. In this case, even those laws are being violated, but when its us being tracked, its fine and dandy.
The Chinese owners seem to discourage all communication between writers. They did however just acknowledge the difficulties the writers face with this platform tool.
This whole operation just smells to me like Chinese work ethic (work them till they jump out the windows, then put nets under the windows) to me. There have been two “supervisors” in the past 16 months that have come and gone. They used to buffer requests and pish to open submission on time, but then they resign without word.
Ty for the reply.
Not comfortable sharing location info, and I know state laws vary. I do know that our state has a law on the books prohibiting withholding pay based on time entry, because my union rep pushed back when I kept not getting paid because a supervisor was forgetting to approve time.
This is similar, because its the final approval process, but the work has been done, taken out of her hands and finalized. Not to mention, she waits weeks sometimes for them to get off their hands and allow her to upload.
No known contacts in the field other than her coauthors. This is her second year doing this, which is her dream job, and its opening doors for her.
Definitely, it could be automated. But part of the problem is the text box that handles the pasted data inserts characters that are not present in the final work. We’ve tried dumping to plaintext several different ways and looking for hidden characters, but it still occurs. Thus, it would still require human review. Double quotes could likely be filtered, but who gets paid to develop the automation? She wouldn’t know how to debug or validate the code, and she shouldn’t have to.
She knows this isn’t her ultimate dream job, but she is getting paid to write, and getting your own stuff published is a lot of work, luck, and who you know. She’s meeting lots of insiders, but struggling with these constraints.
I am not 100%, but I think the white dude who pointed him out was the alleged suspect. The bodycam shows the coos going into the Circle K and the employee describes the problem and points to the gut, and answers in the affirmative when asked if they want the guy trespassed.
So, naturally, they told him to wait while they assaulted his victim.
“IIR his name C” didn’t have the same ring to it, and I am dumb in my morning hours.
Saw this on the Civil Rights Lawyer (iirc his name) YouTube channel Tuesday. Gross cops laughing at his impairment.
Edit: glad that his story is receiving widespread attention, at least
Can’t answer that, but I can tell you that lemmy lets you edit
p0ost titles.
