âCantwell but not Murrayâ is a strong anti-endorsement tbh

I have allocated all of my Conspiratorial Thinking Points to the belief that Rob Saka is not a real person, but a character played by the untalented actor, Rob Saka.

The 48 hours / 30 days is the enforcement mechanism. Basically thatâs the timeframe the President has to justify to Congress.
Ofc this has been routinely ignored, especially since the Obama admin with Libya.

The WPR doesnât confer ANY additional authority to conduct military operations, it imposes procedural constraints. No conditions for military force were met: (1) DoW by Congress, (2) statutory auth by Congress, (3) âattack upon the United States, its territories or possessions, or its armed forcesâ.

Unfortunately Seattle is so deep in the hole that weâre not doing anywhere near enough, to the point that the state is intervening.
Which just makes Californiaâs failures all the more stark.

1. Transit is public capital expenditure, most housing capital expenditures are private.
2. Reliable service is largely incompatible with suburban development patterns.
3. Pairing transit projects with utility upgrades needed for more density saves public money and avoids added disruption.

Experiencing an earthquake of cognitive dissonance because my brain understands that, yeah, people are gullible enough to be taken in by grifters like AltNPS, but my bleeding heart rejects it.

In 2003 we were in the âdonât ask, donât tellâ era. Those laws were rarely enforced and only on the books in 14 states. âAcceptance of homosexualityâ polled around 50% in the early 2000s, with the regional variations being what youâd expect.

I think you canât explain the last ~20 years without factoring the info environment. Thatâs obv tightly linked to social reproduction, but the top-speed radicalization of total normies via Facebookâs algorithm was novel because it put the propaganda *before* the media consolidation / capitulation.

i brought my old gaming PC (vintage 2015) to work to do Excel and Outlook because the 2017 dell inspirwhatever couldnât not freeze whenever i clicked a UI button, and nobody tried to stop me because i am the Excel Guy who Decides Whatâs True

Itâs really something watching the NYT nakedly exercise the conceit that they can create the truth with the words they print.

I was up nearer the front, it was wild looking back up Pine as we turned on to 4th and it was just people as far as I could see.

Theyâre just using Mobilize which is like ActBlue for volunteer recruitment. You donât have to sign up, but this is the core of how orgs like Indivisible grow.

Yeah it sucks but makes sense. The Ave has height restrictions and lots of other regulations that really limit who can afford to develop there.
Also the Cedarâs owner is a transphobic jerk. Friends and I have heard him making multiple disparaging remarks about passersby *at the service counter*.

Iâm old enough to remember that we had a deal with Iran, and Trump ripped up the JCPOA. Maybe heâs too old to remember that himself.

Itâs hard to separate traffic noise and air pollution, granted. But do you know what the constant sound of traffic does to sleep quality? Over long periods, of course it increases mortality. Plenty of literature on the negative health impacts of sleep irregularity.

Iâm going to need the product specifications to tell me if it beeps when I hit the mute button. More than my own peace I do not want to support psychopaths who are hellbent on destroying domestic relationships.

The fact that a hyphenated American isn't any less American than anybody else is literally the best thing about this stupid-ass country, the thing that most clearly makes it a redeemable project.

this is why team-killing is a necessary part of FPS gameplay that developers should embrace. this man would not be behaving this way if he was breaking into a cold sweat every time he heard a car horn, unable to tell friend from foe.
