I think that celebrating multiples of 25 is silly. How about powers of 2? Like 2 to the eighth power, which is 256. Much more reasonable.

It's funny that AP would lead with "a federal judge" when "Judge Cannon" is the most newsworthy, but least surprising, part of the article.

Special elections only apply to Representatives. Replacement Senators are appointed. Replacing presidents happens through constitutional provisions.

Echo chambers are fine if you also visit other sites, as I do. Wait! I now see that all my usual news sources are either woke or liberal scum pits.

Considering the current management, JFK's name shouldn't be associated with it. Just call it the Trump Center. We can fix it later.

So if a party in power wants to eliminate any plausible opposing candidate for office, they just have to engineer a conviction?

Perhaps Trump did say that, but I could only find an August 16, 2024 story about CNN's Jennings saying "If you like bread lines, ..." then Harris "has has a plan for you."

It's also good to check whether they contributed to both campaigns, y'know, are they just covering all the bases.

And wants to restart testing of nuclear weapons. (Anyone can test weapons. What's really hard is to understand them scientifically so that testing is not necessary, as the US has been doing for thirty years.)

So proud! In response to Bluesky's post about the new logo, I replied "Consider it to be a transification." Too radical, I guess, they deleted it.

Think of it as a transification.

It seems like a transification, too.

Such a rule about felons would encourage the ruling party to convict promising opposition party candidates. So either way we're dependent on voters' intelligence and good will.

It is incorrect to think that "religion" just means a set of beliefs about the supernatural. Reading a post about science doesn't help one get along with others or with the earth. There are religions that focus not on "beliefs" or authority but on mutual covenants about how we treat each other.

The second post I read (yours was the first) was a long and interesting discussion about bluesky politics, something I never even suspected existed.
