Theryl @theryl.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I wonder if the quarterly "Major Updates" imply minor updates as well. I assume those would be bug fixes, class tweaks, and the like. 000
Theryl @theryl.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Not to mention, best case is we get single payer in 3-4 years (probably longer). I don't think you want to wait that long to find a pharmacy/doctor. 050

Theryl @theryl.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Michael Harrington's "The Faithful Executioner" discusses one executioner's successful attempt to restore his family's honor after retiring from the job. It's an interesting if occasional gruesome look into early modern Germany. 040
Theryl @theryl.bsky.social · 17/09/2026A lot of executioners had a profitable side hustle as doctors since they had to fix people up after they were tortured and before they were executed. 040

Reposted by TherylSarah Taber @sarahtaber.bsky.social · 31/08/2026The Taylor Farms Cyclospora outbreak was, and IS, still a huge mess. Both due to the sheer size of the outbreak, and because of TF did a historically bad job handling the PR around it. But it's also really the only out-of-the-ordinary outbreak we've had so far this year. (So far. Ha. Hahaha) 216516
Theryl @theryl.bsky.social · 02/09/2026That the GOP still believes this is the best explanation for things like the SAVE act. But most voter suppression efforts only tinker around the margins - enough to swing close races, but not sufficient in a year like this. 010
Theryl @theryl.bsky.social · 01/09/2026What am I missing here? How does this benefit the GOP? My guess is that they believe their own propaganda and think only Dems vote by mail when this will probably affect GOP voters at least as much. 200

Theryl @theryl.bsky.social · 24/07/2026I think it's probably a more urban North and a more rural South because the split really does seem to run along the Mason-Dixon/Ohio River line. I'm going to have to find a history of US local government and do some reading. 010
Theryl @theryl.bsky.social · 24/07/2026Here in VA (and most of the South, iirc) the county is the main unit of local government in rural (and not so rural) areas with towns providing some extra services. Cities in VA are completely independent of counties. 110

Theryl @theryl.bsky.social · 01/07/2026There was a reason state legislatures gave up their power to elect senators, part of it was public pressure, but a lot of it was that it was a massive PITA with little political upside. 000

Theryl @theryl.bsky.social · 15/03/2026Is there any information that this will hurt democratic leaning voters more than GOP leaning ones?

Theryl @theryl.bsky.social · 07/03/2026The same thing applies to domestic opposition. It doesn't look like they anticipated the resistance in MN or the Democrats counter-gerrymandering or the pushback they're getting on Iran. They can't conceive of other people having agency. 0130
