a take I saw that rang true for me today is that the GOP, which spends the other 364 days of the year talking shit about NY (and they did this back then, too, lest they peddle some "we loved it then" story), wants, once a year, to front like they love New York. Nah man. Everybody already heard you

Highway 37 sees 40,000 car commuters a day who will get an $11 billion taxpayer gift from Caltrans to elevate the freeway to deal with the climate change caused by the cars. BART sees 200,000 commuters a day who have to fight like hell to raise $3.6 billion just to keep the trains running.

My father worked for an amusement park in the 70s, directing people toward parking lots so they filled evenly. He started sorting VW Beetles (v popular at the time) by color out of boredom. End of the day, people couldn't find their Beetle in the sea of same-colored Beetles. A giant mess.

Haiti’s TPS continues for now!!!!! And zowie: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov…

VII. CONCLUSION
There is an old adage among lawyers. If you have the facts on your side, pound the
facts. If you have the law on your side, pound the law. If you have neither, pound the table.
Secretary Noem, the record to-date shows, does not have the facts on her side or at least has
ignored them. Does not have the law on her side or at least has ignored it. Having neither and
bringing the adage into the 21st century, she pounds X (f/k/a Twitter).
Kristi Noem has a First Amendment right to call immigrants killers, leeches, entitlement
junkies, and any other inapt name she wants. Secretary Noem, however, is constrained by both
our Constitution and the APA to apply faithfully the facts to the law in implementing the TPS
program. The record to-date shows she has yet to do that.
By accompanying Order, the Court GRANTS Plaintiffs' Renewed Motion for a Stay
Under 5 U.S.C. § 705.

stop using AI to do your research. it hallucinates too often. if you want an answer to something, post something arrogant on the appropriate subreddit. something like: "this item performs 10% better than everything else. only idiots deny this." this will bait nerds into doing your research for you.

Trying to distinguish real Minnesotans from ICE occupiers? Ask about former Twins first baseman Kent Hrbek. He has a boat dealership or something? Anyway in my experience all Minnesotans will tell you about it for ten minutes straight. Also, I think all Minnesotans make something called “Crop Art.”
