We have a loooooong history of arresting people for protesting peacefully and legally.
Oh and shooting them. Especially when the protests hurt the bottom line of the wealthiest in the country.
When conservatives cry about Free Speech it's never this, it's about using slurs without consequences.

Because they are so tied up in trying to make money through mergers and are generally afraid of what unhinged thing he'd do to retaliate that they stopped being journalists and became propagandists.
Before they were arrested- Vets are demanding an end to the war on Iran at the Cannon Building in Washington, D.C.
Sadly the 30k crowd has a lot of people who hate the way things are, hate when things get changed, and hate it when GW tries to make things better.
I have to wonder if these dorks understand that socialist revolution didn't happen because people thought happy thoughts. They had guns.
Also the AK 47 is basically the most socialist fire arm ever.
What if it's not the spirit being damaged but it shifting slightly resulting in it interacting differently?
Of course this isn't something a person can prove since anything above our dimension wouldn't be detectable to us in a way we could understand such as a cylinder pressing down into or through a 2 dimensional space.
It was just a random thought that started from rotating a hypercube in my head.

dimensions we typically deal with.
This of course suggests the possibility that if we could become aware of our own soul in the same manner we are able to perceive the tongue in our mouths we could step outside of the dimensional confines, and possibly alter the way we interact with the rules.

So because my ADHD goes weird places please enjoy this train of thought:
So as far as we know a soul isn't detectable by any means that work inside the dimensions we are within. This leaves a possibility that the soul is a higher dimensional thing and existence is how it interacts with the four

EU ‘right to repair’ law
The EU will soon require smartphone manufacturers to let users replace their batteries.
The tough new rules - endorsed by the European Parliament this week - could save millions of phones from landfill.

You gotta give to the GOP.
They trained their voters to hate “libs” so much they would gratefully accept every manner of corruption, lawlessness, cruelty, ineptitude, and criminality, and cheer it on, so long as it is their team doing it.

the only prerequisite for running one of these superhero twitter accounts is never having read a comic.
he's counting on people not knowing what a doctor looks like because they don't have healthcare
Want to be in a throuple. Not for love or anything, just need a Doordash driver and a backup Doordash driver in case I get sick when I'm elderly and the US still doesn't have universal healthcare.
Genuinely depressing to me that your partner has to Doordash to raise money for your cancer treatment when you get old. What happens if you don't have a partner? Are we just working to pay a landlord and save up for a medical emergency when we're elderly?
I suspect the Pope sounds "woke" to many Christian conservatives because the US is steeped in prosperity theology, where the point of worship is to deliver health and wealth to believers. Thus, "feed the hungry" and "show mercy for the poor" sounds needlessly political and "woke."
A white garment with some kind of food stain. Humiliating.
A pair of dirty hands rest on a car engine. Rough, tough, cool.
Here is an easy solution:
Food stains are humiliating, as they suggest you're a little baby who can't feed themselves.
Oil stains, such as those you'd get from working on your car, suggest you're tough, independent, and skilled.
Thus, simply cover your food stains with used motor oil.
Personally don't recommend these. As the article notes, these properties are typically achieved through PFAS, which can shed carcinogens in your home (which you then inhale) or come out in the wash (polluting waterways for decades). Will try to do a thread on how to treat stains in the wash.
Cosmopolitanism is hardly new. In late Ottoman Constantinople, large populations of Greeks, Turks, Armenians, Sephardic Jews, Arabs, and Balkan Christians lived together. But Stuart Hall nailed it in the 90s when he said "The capacity to live with difference is the coming question of the 21st cent."
Megan Basham on Twitter writes: "Given that I have been critical of the pope in the last few days, including on his self-described communion with Muslims, I do want to take a minute to remind Southern Baptists that our leadership has taken similar stances. The former president of the Southern Baptist Convention, JD Greear, wrote in his book Breaking the Islam code that Muslims and Christians worship the same God. And the former head of our lobbying arm, Russell Moore, argued that we must advocate for the building of mosques in the United States. So this strange promotion of Islam within Christianity is happening all over. Both Catholics and Protestants should be asking why their leadership is doing this." She has attached some screenshots showing that some Christians are OK with finding common ground with Muslims.
Some MAGA acolytes can't imagine people of different creeds, backgrounds, and cultures living peacefully side-by-side. The project to create a cosmopolitan society must be a dark conspiracy. IMO, the central issue of our time is this regressive idea of ethnic absolutism.

Now that the Supreme Court has ordered the Trump administration to refund companies what they paid in tariffs, yet there are still tariffs in place, what's the plan? Consumers continue to fork money over to corporations who will later get another refund?
I paid about $1k in tariffs last year to various carriers, such as FedEx and DHL, for importing goods that have no comparable substitutes in the US. I have no idea how I would even get that money back. If a process exists, it will take hours out of my day.
A clip from The New York Times reads: "But only the entities that officially paid the tariffs are eligible to recover that money. That means that the fuller universe of people affected by Mr. Trump’s policies — including millions of Americans who paid higher prices for the products they bought — are not able to apply for direct relief. The extent to which consumers realize any gain hinges on whether businesses share the proceeds, something that few have publicly committed to do. Some have started to band together in class-action lawsuits in the hopes of receiving a payout."
The average American family paid $1,700 in tariffs last year, according to the bipartisan Congressional Joint Economic Committee. Few will ever see any of that money back. The refunds will go to companies, if doled out at all. What a joke.
Also, what a beautiful outfit. 🙏
