I didn't catch the last couple, but whatever.
Looked at the article. Even on his worst subject, he still has a solid 30% approval rating. His cult will never desert him.
I am so sorry :'( She's very beautiful, and looks so happy and content in your picture :)
Real funny, because Ohanian is partially behind the new Digg.
spez always was a scared little bootlicker, with his doomsday bunker and his "at least I won't be a slave".
Fake news release to cover for that article where they signed up that reporter with no vetting or processing.
Considering that Alexis Ohanian is involved, it looks like he wants another bite at the apple, so it'll likely go downhill pretty quickly.
I got 403 on the main lists. But if you scroll down the first page, there's a link to look up names and photos by state, and those were still working.
It's been DDoS'd by all the traffic.
DHS is privately divided and hesitant about the latest deployments. According to documents leaked to me, not only is the Department seeking “volunteers” for the apparently unpopular mission, it is urging its agents to maintain a low profile and comply with the use of force policies. [...] the volunteer push reflects real unease in the ranks about the Good shooting in Minneapolis and the related surge. “We do have personnel but some just don’t want to go,” the agent told me. [...] an increasing number of homeland security workers are concerned about the public backlash. “The claim is that recruiting is up, but there is also dread that the gung-ho types that ICE and the Border Patrol are bringing in have a propensity towards confrontation and even violence.”
These four "use of force" slides they released internally are useful:
, , , .“In a nutshell, it’s ‘Us versus them’ on steroids and I think some Border Patrol agents are more willing to use force and not feel restrained when you got DHS leadership lying to cover for them. For example, Kristi Noem lying her ass off on what happened is like saying to the federal agents on the ground: ‘Go ahead and do whatever you have to do. We got your back. We will find a way to justify it.’”

That's the stuff I remember I have the ingredients for without actually getting up and checking stuff, I'm certain I could make more if I went and checked.
Side story: I've always kept a pantry which I'd refill during my weekly grocery shopping, and I'd always put extras in the freezer when I make stuff.
Years ago, I got really depressed and decided that, this one week, I'd eat out of the freezer instead of getting new stuff (the freezer was for like backup meals when I didn't feel like cooking, the pantry was for staples when I did feel like cooking). The following week, I was like, "The food thing went well and I'm still depressed, I'm not gonna shop this week either!"
As I went through stuff, I found partially-forgotten and partially-used items that had been sitting around for a while. And at some point, I decided I was going to eat through u stores instead of buying any new stuff. The challenge began.
In the beginning, it was easy: I had lots of ingredients and could make lots of dishes, and there was a bunch of premade stuff in the freezer, along with a whole stash of various frozen vegetables.
But as time went on, I had to start getting creative, the way our ancestors did. I ran out of flour and made a fairly decent pizza with an oatmeal crust. I made pasta and seasoned it with salad dressing. I started rather liberally substituting in different spices.
After about two months of increasingly odd meals, I hit desperation times. I ran out of vegetables and meats, in almost all their forms. I still had a stash of pasta and rice, some bouillon cubes, and an odd array of various half-used things I had bought either on a whim or to make a single recipe.
That last month was hard. It was all carbs, and I was starting to become malnourished, but I soldiered on, just eating my way through everything.
I still remember that final day, when I opened the freezer and it was empty, the fridge contained a half-dozen bottles with the drugs of condiments in them, and the contents of the pantry consisted of one unopened jar of garlic powder and some salt.
I threw away the condiments, thoroughly cleaned the fridge, and went to the grocery store.
Reader, I had not left my apartment except to get the mail for over three months. The grocery store was bright, and a riot of color and sounds! Having not had fruits or veggies for over a month, the produce section was so seductive! Oranges! Pineapples! Bananas! Apples! I wanted them all, and there was nothing to stop me!
I went up and down every aisle, restocking my pantry of everything from butter and spices, soup bases to beans. I spent something like $600, and it was one of the best shopping experiences of my life.
And then I got home and realized I'd bought the normal account of apples I would've if I'd had a sudden urge for apples. And that would've been okay, if I hadn't also bought the same "urge-satisfying" amount of bananas, and oranges and strawberries and ...
It was a huge effort to get through all the fruit before it went bad, but I did that as well, and I loved it.
Anyway, OP, to answer a question you didn't ask: based on previous experience and the current contents of my house, I'm pretty sure I have enough food for about four months, even if I don't buy anything new. But, yeah, the recipes will get increasingly weird as time progresses, and the last carb-heavy month will be somewhat grim.
It's stealing our water, poisoning our land, is helping erode trust in institutions and each other, hallucinates, gives bad advice and worse summaries, bothers our hearing, raises our electricity rates dramatically, all but ensures we won't meet our climate goals, offers us nothing of value, is something none of us wanted and most of us hate, is constantly being pushed down our throats, and is intended to allow the wealthy to access the benefits of the talented while preventing the talented from accessing the benefits of wealth.
AI is a cancer and must be destroyed.
I wish they wouldn't do this, because people are stupid. People are going to be like "I'll vote for the Democrats bc they're promising to try to fix things", without realizing how much time and effort that's going to take. Biden pulled off a miracle in his soft landing, yet they still voted Trump because the economy wasn't perfect again. And they simply cannot understand that the economy will never be perfect again.
Running on "we'll fix the economy" just sets them up for disappointment and failure, and they're too stupid to see that.
If you have a child born of rape, there are a number of states where paternity laws allow the father to sue for sole custody (unlikely) or joint custody (more likely, because it keeps them in contact with their victim as they arrange handoffs and custody arrangements).
There are also a number of states that allow the woman to try to sever paternity rights in cases of rape, but several of them require the perpetrator to be convicted of raping the victim, and there are (a couple? a few?) where the perpetrator has to be convicted of rape in the specific instance that led to the child (difficult in ongoing abuse cases).
Most states defer to the patriarchy, which is terrified of men "losing" the right to see their kids over vindictive, false rape claims.
Nope, because once trust is broken (see; Thermocline of trust) n and new patterns are established (see: why do so many Canadians spend time at the New Jersey shore), that's it. There may be some visits, especially for national parks, but tourism will never recover to where it was before.
I get a farm share during the growing season. So every week I sit down with whatever I've gotten from the farm and clean, chop, dice, slice, etc. Then I make two large batches of food from whatever I've gotten from the farm that week, and some side stuff as well. Those get portioned info single-serving containers; half of them to into the fridge, the other half into the freezer.
Then I take everything that hasn't been used in a dish, and I try to make a variety of salads - spicy, savory, sweet, fruity, cheesey etc. I make 10-12 salads - one for every lunch and dinner for the work week. Greens go on the top so they're not crushed, crunchy stuff goes in a Ziploc on the side, and an old pill bottle of dressing gets tucked in as well.
Then I go over everything that wasn't used in a salad. If it's snack-appropriate, servings go into snack-sized ziplocs, with an old pill bottle of dip/dressing if appropriate. Anything still left over may get frozen to be used as ingredients later in the year, or processed and canned, pickled or dehydrated.
The first part of the week, I eat freshly made meals, salads and sides; the latter part of the week, I eat something from the freezer for mains and sides, and a salad from the fridge. I usually have 40-45 servings of 12-15 different main courses available, so I don't really get tired of stuff.
My goal each week is to use up or process everything from that week's harvest; and my goal each spring is to finish eating everything in the freezer and pantry before the next season gets fully underway.

Murkowski and Collins will always fold. Hawley will act tough, then fold. No idea about Young. Oddly enough, probably the most principled one here is Rand.
The first cards were issued in the fall of 1936. I wonder how many people were using this number deliberately because they didn't trust the government.
It's given me Nazi Germanic creeps since the moment it was named the Department of Homeland Security.
