  • What’s an L10?

  • “A short-fingered vulgarian.”

  • This was reported as misinformation, but I have no idea what this means. To me, this looks like a bot talking to a bot. Can other people weigh in and confirm I’m not just ignorant of whatever this is about before I ban what I think are bot accounts?

  • Trump’s total disregard for the Impoundment Control Act, which basically requires the President to spend money that Congress has appropriated — and the acquiescence of Congressional Republicans to that executive overreach — is ample reason why Democrats have little reason to trust Republicans will do what they say.

  • The proposition is time-limited, and will revert back to independent redistricting organization after 2030.

  • I saw it somewhere else on here, but I liked the suggestion of Democrats adding demands for popular changes as the shutdown continues on (e.g., Medicare for All, Medicaid expansion, no hungry kids, etc.), and I love it.

    Reporting Ban Evasions

  • The only reason I made the request is I received a mod report from people who didn’t realize it, and at the time, the votes on your comment were in the negative, so I was concerned it might continue to be misinterpreted. I thought simply adding a “/s” to the end of your comment would be an a win-win for everyone: you wouldn’t continue to be downvoted, and people that didn’t pick up on the facetiousness of your comment, would then be able to appreciate your comment.

  • Please add a sarcasm or facetious tag.

  • You’re using different words to repeat yourself without actually addressing the flaw in your argument: it misses the larger picture.

  • You’re right on the technical points, but you’re completely missing the larger reality, which is corporate and media consolidation. There are a lot of business interests that include some subsidiaries that are subject to the FCC’s regulation, and other subsidiaries that are not. The point is, members of this administration are exerting extortionate pressures that don’t happen in a vacuum.

  • I seem to remember seeing something like this a while ago. I can’t remember if it was the one that had the secret button or not, but you may end up being to keep things from moving around, but The most straightforward process I can think of is to use a CNC or lay a straight edge across and regular and precise increments and use that as a guide for a router. Then you would fill the gap with epoxy. This way the parts are still attached, and you never have to worry about the moving around when you pour the epoxy.

  • Often called “zombie bills”… Georgia Republicans do it all the time.

    Texas House passes Trump redistricting plan, setting up showdown with California

  • I locked this it’s post because it’s a duplicate submission and so that comments and replies can be consolidated in a single thread. (This submission had less activity than the other post.)

  • A little bit late to the party, but if you're in the U.S., you should report this to the FDA's MedWatch, here. There's some backstory here, but from personal experience, I can say that the different release mechanisms (e.g., osmotic) can have an impact. It sucks.

  • Appreciate the effort!

  • I saw someone reported this post for changing the title of the article. Nevertheless, in this case, the post title that was used appears to be more objective, more informative, less of a clickbait title than the original, and the author of the post was upfront about this modification from the outset, so I’m going to let it stand.

  • (Go to 4:28.)

  • I just updated my comment, to reflect another conversation about that Substack, and the short of it is: that Substack post is misinformation.

    I know it probably wasn’t your intent, but In the future though, please don’t use a “shell” article to post other content.
