I feel like I am crazy. Did he not already get called on doing this before and then just said: “I need to because I’m President.”

I’ve heard Count Binface is saying there was confusion at the polls. Voters could not tell the candidates apart as both are filled with garbage.

So far as I know, gig work is not counted in the data, meaning driving for delivery apps, etc. So they probably dropped from the tracked economy into the gig economy.

I was wrong, see below comment

Some may also have pursued further education in some form.

Seperately, considering the adjustment downward for literally every months data following it’s release, you can probably assume even the slight gain in employment this month will be adjusted down to a loss overall in a month or two.

Lithium ion batteries cannot super accurately report their own charge so the percentage isn’t necessarily digit accurate.

I am also usually just making sure it’ll get me to a place I can charge it when I actually need to worry about charge. That doesn’t usually require like the difference between say 33% and 26% for me.

I just need to be able to see if I’ve got like a fifth of battery left or less / more.

Admitedly also with the ADHD if there’s a percentage I fixate on it for no reason so it’s less annoying for me to have it off.

Same with the battery level in my e-bike. 👀 I know it’ll get me to work and back as it always does but not constantly fixating on the remaining battery is impossible.

“Aw shucks, sometimes you just don’t win guys. But boy oh boy they really gave him a hard time before nothing came of it huh? They really totally tried so hard guys. I will remember them fondly and vote for them going forward!!”

Another meanless “written commitment” extracted from people proven to lie. Maybe worse than the other useless habit of writing strongly worded letters in the “No we totally tried guys” category.

Pepperidge Farms about to start needing regular colonoscopies. 👀

The bipartisan package allows the president to impose tariffs on the world’s top five purchasers of Russian oil or natural gas, including China and India. It provides exceptions for countries that import less than 15% of their natural gas from Russia and are taking steps to reduce those imports.

Allows but does not require.

The legislation also includes sanctions on Putin, senior Russian political and military leaders, Russian financial institutions and Russian energy projects. It would expand U.S. sanctions to target older, reflagged oil tankers that Russia uses to circumvent existing U.S. sanctions on Russian oil and energy revenues. The bill also allows the White House to waive sanctions or restrictions if the president certifies to Congress that it’s in the national interest.

And also allows him to undo any of the stuff he doesn’t get a say over directly.

Very cool!

I have no doubt he will use it as an excuse to further fracture our global power and image in attempts to extort easy wins, personal wealth, or both.

But I do approve of increased support for Ukraine and am thankful there has been progress, atleast in messaging, from the right toward Ukraine.

Also

Sen. Raphael Warnock, D-Ga., who had held up passage of the package over the tariff authority, said he received a written commitment from the Trump administration through U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer that ensures guardrails. The tariffs would be lifted once the countries are no longer on the lists of those purchasing Russian oil and gas, or helping to evade sanctions, he said.

Guys it’s fine.

I said IT’S FINE. HE GOT A WRITTEN COMMITMENT.

Begging you to explain what you mean by “same moderation period we’re seeing with Mormons”.

(I realize that statement generally expresses criticism but in this case I am just very genuinely curious to hear your thoughts)

Aware of the early days of the religion trying to basically declare their sovereignty as a nation but not sure that’s what you’re talking about in context.

I knew they worshipped the same God, but finding out that Islam also affirms the vast majority of the life of Jesus and his place with-in the larger theological framework just makes me infinitely more upset there is nothing small enough humans won’t literally kill each other over it.

He clearly has not accepted that in-group/out-group dynamics always leave potential for you to become part of the out-group, or to have only assumed you’d be in the in-group in the first place. Just thinks Trump messed up by taking HIS partner instead of someone else’s.

“go after criminals” he continues to say, failing to realize that especially in the most heavily incarcerated country on the planet, criminals are actually also largely moms and pops and kids with families that are torn apart by agents of state violence over incredibly minor or intentionally targeted laws.

My experience with so many people is that even when solidly proven to have held a belief they no longer find suits them, they do not look for a systematic fault in their mental processing models or a larger misunderstanding in their base assumptions of reality to find how it was they were led into false belief. They simply assume it was either a fluke, or that reality does indeed conform to their ideas and just made a mistake this time.

Your Honor, there’s no evidence from the provided panels that my client did not in fact open the bag and have a single chip then put the bag away before feeling content in his accomplishments.

Was honestly very confused how this could have performed quite so terribly until I read there was also a section that would’ve taken away the people’s right to approval of sales tax hikes and that makes a lot more sense.

Honestly, I voted for El-Sayid and I barely remembered they were yesterday.

Knew when it was and was keeping track, telling people to go vote. Woke up on the day and only remembered when I saw an article about the pivotal election in Michigan that day and ran down to my polling place before work.

“To my knowledge, this is among the first public demonstrations of document-borne AI-worm self-propagation through normal workflows in a mainstream commercial productivity suite.”

What a fucking sentence my god. Every scientist in cyberpunk shit should talk exactly like this.

You are correct.

Nowhere did I see it said on my sources on grand juries but I looked up the Wikipedia for the DC Sandwich Guy case and: “U.S. law typically gives the Justice Department 30 days to secure an indictment after an arrest.”

https://www.reuters.com/legal/litigation/grand-jury-declines-indict-man-arrested-throwing-sandwich-us-agent-source-says-2025-08-27/

(this is the source cited by Wikipedia but seems to just be stated without source itself in the article)

I became more confused upon trying to look it up.

“A grand jury focuses on preliminary criminal matters only and assesses evidence presented by a prosecutor to determine whether there is “probable cause” to believe an individual committed a crime and should be put on trial. If the grand jury determines there is enough evidence, an indictment will be issued against the individual”

Source: https://www.uscourts.gov/court-programs/jury-service/types-juries

That makes it sound to me like they would need to do that rather than charge him, as the right to indictment by grand jury for federal felonies is guaranteed by the Fifth Amendment.

https://constitution.findlaw.com/amendment5.html

My issue with assuming he has been indicted by a grand jury though is that in the article is specifically uses “charged” over and over and charges are brought by Attorneys not Grand Juries.

So maybe just admin doing crime?

I would note grand juries are required to charge someone with a felony, meaning they did already get atleast (13 of 23?) a majority of the grand jury to agree he did do the crime.

However, there have already been multiple cases dismissed for incorrect procedure during grand juries under this admin, so it is possible that is the case for why the grand jury would agree to charge in this case.

Update: I was incorrect, there is generally 30 days from the time of arrest for a grand jury to be convinced to indict. See below

I usually only comment while high and the hyper-linking looked different than the only other time I did it on here but I couldn’t figure out why. Guess that’s why. 😅

I do think it would probably be reasonable to charge for neglect / abuse depending on circumstance in atleast cases where the child is severely physically disabled from their weight and there is no underlying illness in the child to cause such a desire to eat. Or maybe even further to if there is an underlying illness causing it and they refused to acknowledge such or seek help if acknowledged.

I’ve got a (very old) Logitech G602, and you don’t even need to cross the battery in that. It will work with a battery in either slot or both. Always thought that was nice because before rechargables where it doesn’t matter, usually if you used each battery separately after they stopped working together, you’d get a bit more use from them.
