This graphic shows how successful the JCPOA was, which cost US taxpayers nothing but Obama signed it. Can we please stop electing racist dickwads?

That’s very rarely the cause of a mass murder, and a lot of cruel people would take it that way as an excuse. That’s exactly wrong and counterproductive

Federal judge unloads on ‘unserious’ RFK Jr., says anti-trans policy showed his ‘cruelty’ Judge Mustafa T. Kasubhai vacated the “Kennedy Declaration,” finding it unlawfully attempted to override medical standards and restrict care for transgender youth.

Breaking: HHS’s ban on gender-affirming care is struck down. Rarely have I read a ruling this sharply worded.

“This case is one of a long list of examples of how a leader’s wanton disregard for the rule of law causes very real harm to very real people.”

Meme by u/IBoris comparing lawyers and LLMs. They both:

Uses em dashes (-J everywhere

Peppers semicolons every other sentence;
always judiciously of course

Uses English words, but is often hard to understand.

Always available unless IT crashes

Useless without sufficient context & information

Unable to provide a "yes" or "no" answer

Assumes the person asking the question is a moron

Fantasizes about exterminating all humans, toppling unvernments and conquering the world

But only lawyers can: Understands context cues, jurisdictional trends, courts' formatting rules, judges' precedent preferences, and what opposing counsel likes to argue on certain types of files
For the LLM it’s:
Good luck

Bonus (for lawyers): creates dope memes in Microslop Word

The only president or major party candidate in half a century not to disclose his tax returns—who fought for years, at taxpayer expense, to keep them private, and lost—now wants the IRS to MORE THAN DOUBLE HIS NET WORTH at taxpayer expense as a part of the systematic pillaging he calls a presidency.

A good day to remind people that, around 2000 or so, Edward Said began routinely telling journalists and editors in his interviews that the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territory was now the longest in modern world history, after having surpassed the Japanese occupation of Korea.

How Israel’s Unprecedented Killing of Palestinian Journalists in Gaza Makes Accountability Reporting Almost Impossible With foreign media prohibited from reporting on the ground, the deaths of hundreds of local journalists inside Gaza has left the outside world blind to how the conflict is unfolding.

Rümeysa Öztürk, Tufts University grad arrested by ICE agents last year, returns to Turkey - The Boston Globe The government and Öztürk’s legal team have jointly moved to dismiss her immigration proceedings.

America is losing a talented researcher today.
Rümeysa Öztürk, whose abduction by masked men prompted a search and her eventual release by ICE, has returned to Turkey. She wants to resume a career without "state-imposed violence and hostility."

the president of the united states is personally looting the treasury to the tune of literally billions of dollars and that he is not being immediately removed from office and tried for high crimes against this country is a devastating indictment of every part of our political system

Hi! A responsible title to this article would have been something like, "Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas calls for violent right-wing revolution against most of the American populace".

On April 15, at the direction of #SOUTHCOM commander Gen. Francis L. Donovan, Joint Task Force Southern Spear conducted a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel operated by Designated Terrorist Organizations. Intelligence confirmed the vessel was transiting along known narco-trafficking routes in the Eastern Pacific and was engaged in narco-trafficking operations. Three male narco-terrorists were killed during this action. No U.S. military forces were harmed.

Despite the administration’s rhetoric and bogus legal theories, the supposed armed conflict with “narco-terrorists” appears to be entirely make believe.

Murder is the general term for premeditated killing outside of armed conflict.

*Forty* senators voted against US weapons for Israel tonight.

~1/2 the chamber & the overwhelming majority of Democrats + allies. No such vote had ever occurred in Congress before November 2024.

A sea-change that will resonate in Tel Aviv, dramatically boost calls for a Dem overhaul + reckoning.

I started a thread there following up on my impression that the hatch diameters may take up too much of the module volume that’s attached. The ratio of docking hatch diameter yo module diameter is going to give you a hatch swing and stowage volume cost ratio for each module and adapter type.
