Former Republican. Always Never-Trump. Self funded a tiny little PAC that helped defeat my MAGA Congressman. You can have my democracy when you pry it from my cold, dead hands. #T1D

i think this is sort of wrong in that the entire Republican push to make people believe that government doing literally anything is socialism has made people believe that socialism is when the government does literally anything

from 2001. no one’s doing product testimonials like this anymore. t.co/PEswCtbEZz
Toyota's unease at being associated with the Taliban and Al Qaeda is evident. In its September statement, the company said,
'Toyota does not have a sales or distribution channel in Afghanistan, and we do not export vehicles to that country."
Somewhat less laconic was Wade Hoyt, Toyota's spokesman in New York, who put the best corporate spin on the situation this week.
"It is not our proudest product placement," he said. "But it shows that the Taliban are looking for the same qualities as any truck buyer: durability and reliability."

There’s a motte and bailey to it. That ambiguous text and terms of art can codify a meaning understood at the time of adoption is true and mundane. But in practice “originalism” has become just this: bad faith window dressing for right-wing policy preferences and pro-Republican partisanship.

I don’t think everyone realizes how bad things are for US science: For the fiscal year that just ended, the Trump regime withheld $1.4 billion from the National Science Foundation’s research budget, which is about 1/5 of its primary research budget.
nytimes.com
National Science Foundation Diverted $1.4 Billion in Science Funds Mandated by Congress (Gift Article)
The move, affecting about one-fifth of the National Science Foundation’s primary research budget, is the latest sign of how the White House is asserting more control over grants.

i think we probably do need to do more talking about how to help women heal from sexual assault and less talking about whether and how sexual-assualting men can or should be rehabilitated, based on that realization that i've seen a great deal of discourse on the latter and ~none on the former

This is the kind of story the Canadian government would normally go out of their way to shut down. Not now.These are trial balloons about prepping for US cyber threat and interference. "Hypothetical" scenarios about fighting an insurgency war. It's sending a message that we aren't fucking around.

At the time of the sentencing the judge who oversaw the case, Todd Lang, seemed to appreciate the use of AI. 

"I loved that AI. Thank you for that. As angry as you are, as justifiably angry as the family is, I heard the forgiveness," judge Lang said. "I feel that that was genuine."

When can My girlfriend sit on my face again
I'm 21M my Girlfriend 21 F, and I broke my lower jaw 9 weeks ago, it was fractured in 2 places and I have 2 titanium plates and screws in my mouth, everything has gotten back to normal now at this point though, l've been eating and going about my life almost completely normal, but I was wondering if she was able to sit in my face now at this point in jaw surgery. I'm not on any medication I haven't been since week 2 and I'm healing great. Any feedback is greatly appreciated, please and thank you!!!

Only if we let him. Musk absolutely stole 2024 for Trump, but not in the way people think. He spent hundreds of millions. He manipulated the X algorithm. He literally bought votes in multiple states. He didn’t - and can’t - change any votes, and nobody is falling for his bullshit this time.

He’s absolutely considering ground troops, and actively laying the ground work to make it possible if he ultimately green lights it. His advisors are urging him to ‘finish the job’ after the midterms. They’re trying not to lose any more votes than they’re already going to.
