A lot of people don’t realize how rigged Texas is, or how recent it’s redness is.

The Governor prior to Bush was a Democratic woman. Bush got elected off his name, then got the Presidency. In the Republican bump from that the Republicans got a majority in the Texas legislature for the first time since Reconstruction in 2003, which they used to massively gerrymander the state.

Prior to 2004, the majority of Texas reps.to Congress had never been Republican. Following the 2003 redistricting, it was over 2:1 Republican. They’ve locked down voting districts and attacked voting rights ever since to maintain their majority, while courting out-of-state conservatives to move to Texas and driving progressives away.

The reality is the Republicans got full control of the state government in a single legitimate election in 2002 and have spent the last 2 decades rigging the system to ensure they never lose that power.

That’s why they need to be able to monitor everything on the internet.

Not for anything fascist, we promise.

It’s established that Picard hates fancy breakfasts.

If the Courts can’t enforce rulings against him l, then there isn’t even a theoretical check on his executive power. So even if he were impeached he could refuse to leave office, with no courts able to compelling the justice department to drag his ass out of the white house.

I have to lean sideways anyway because my shoulders are too broad and the side of the plane is round.

There’s so much about flying that sucks as a big person.

My knees are folded up to my chest. I’m leaning to the right to stay off the fuselage. I can’t be in an aisle seat because I’m in the way of the crew, and I have to lean forward the whole time because someone is in the seat next to me. And that person hates me.

My dread of the flying experience is why I never go on vacations.

Honestly, that may actually be more comfortable for me than trying to fold my legs into the tiny rows they have now.

Maybe if a certain political party hadn’t spent decades convincing its voters to disarm themselves, we wouldn’t have 90% of guns owned by fascists.

Guns are evil until you need them.

This protects him even if the Dems take back Congress or the Republicans finally turn on him.

They can “compel” whatever they want. It’s amazing how quickly someone can forget their password when stressed out.

I don’t love the field, but a competent marketing department has no interest in creating confusing product names. Being easily found in a Google search is like the number 1 thing they care about.

They’d be more likely to rename it something like “Remote Desktop: By Microsoft” or “CoPilot Remote”. Something stupid, but recognizable.

They’re the ones who chose the name “Microsoft.”

I’ve done that when I need to send something quickly from an airgapped system.

I had a roommate in college royally fuckup huge batch of very expensive ribs we’d bought for a party because the online recipe called for 2 cloves of garlic abbreviated as “garlic - 2c” and he put in 2 cups of garlic powder.

I’m saying that conspiring with PAs and NPs to falsify medical records with the specific intent to make sure people die is literally murder.

Because the restrictions is technically on the city, not the organizations we aren’t allowed to hire.

It’s bullshit.

In Texas, government organizations not only can’t divest from Israel, but also can’t award contracts to anyone who divest from Israel or speaks ill of it.

It’s insane. When analyzing bids for janitorial services for City Hall a few weeks back, I was required to vett them for their stance on Israel.

They’ll catch on and see it as a positive.

If your mental health is in that kind of state, please get rid of the gun. The world is better with you here, and we need each other the fight that’s coming.

And if we need guns later, I’m a hobbyist that’s been collecting them for years and I’ve got a TON of them.

There’s also a hidden provision to prevent judges from issuing contempt citations against federal officials, so they can fully ignore Court orders without even facing theorhetical consequences

There’s been lots of talk about United killing people through their abhorrent practices and delay tactics.

But this is literally murder.
