This is the beginning of the turn. All part of Thiel’s plan to get his puppet as president for 10 years. Regardless of who wins the midterms, Trump will either be impeached and removed from office or 25th amendmented after January 20, 2027, so that JD Vance will be eligible to serve 2.5 terms.

He’d make a fine Reverse Clinton.

Why are so many people in FOSS weird fascists?

Many of them have no idea what’s actually happening. They’re firmly in their bubble and refuse to believe anything negative about Trump.

Absolutely fucking wild.

The charge isn’t for waiting in line, and it doesn’t increase with time spent in the waiting room. The charge is for whatever they already did. Triaging and vitals are a thing someone is doing. And in emergency medicine, everything is expensive. This is why for those who are able, Urgent Care centers are much more useful than an emergency department. And why we should be prioritizing preventative measures rather than treating the ER like a primary care physician.

(Or, more accurately, why we should become like every other developed nation and have universal healthcare.)

But in a system where I’m being billed hundreds of dollars just for the privilege of being triaged and sitting in your waiting room, you can kindly fuck off with that prioritisation bullshit and get to work on the people who came in first.

That’s just not how emergency medicine works. The goal is to save as many lives as possible. If your condition is not immediately life-threatening, you can wait longer than someone having a heart attack or who got shot or who has a shattered femur or something.

Both of Michigan’s senators, Slotkin and Peters, voted for the measure. Don’t put the treacherous Fetterman on us. He’s PA’s problem.

(Now, if we end up electing Floridaman Rogers instead of Abdul El-Sayed in November I’ll gladly bitch about us.)

I’m not saying they won’t make ANY gas guzzlers.

My hope is that this is going to be similar to the toilet thing.

In his first term he tried to bring back the giant toilets that used way more water per flush, but manufacturers were like, “Um, no, we’ve got low-flow working well, why would we want to go backwards and cost consumers more in water bills?”

I’m hoping car manufacturers look at current gas prices and go, “Yeah maybe we don’t just make even more giant gas guzzlers…”

Lot of things didn’t go right in that crash. Mentour Pilot has a really good video on the subject.

I tried to explain this earlier and got downvoted. 🙄

Edit: not that downvotes matter at all, it’s just frustrating. Sometimes there is zero room for nuance or context on the Fediverse.

they were one of the first that tried to get you to pay and have ads. I went no fucking way, never will they get my business.

As I recall, that was back when they were transitioning from having only a free ad-supported service to having a paid ad-free tier. Some of their contracts with a very small, specific set of shows didn’t allow them to be ad-free. Everything else was ad-free. And eventually they renegotiated those contracts and got everything ad-free. But people made a huuuuuge deal about how you’d be paying and still watch ads. It was like, four or five shows? And this was when Hulu was pretty much everything from current seasons on broadcast television, so they had a shitload of shows. I never saw an ad when I paid for it back then.

How dare you!

Beetlejuice was a Broadway show, not off-Broadway! Though she did see the tour in Denver, not the actual Broadway cast.

If I read the article correctly, that’s exactly what they’re talking about. Promo prerolls.

I don’t understand why anyone could be anti-Sikh. Unless it’s just good old xenophobia. But thank you for pointing that out.

Edit: Ah yes, it’s xenophobia. Cool. This fucking country…

Sikhs taking fire because Americans are manipulated into hating Muslims is so tragic. In my limited experience Sikhs are some of the coolest, chillest, kindest people.

Like, Americans shouldn’t hate Muslims either, don’t get me wrong. But fuck.

The correct response was “Just one small problem: sell their houses to WHO, Ben? Fucking Aquaman?”

🙂

Don’t you think if sea levels rise people will just sell their homes and move?

Do we know she was sent to prison? I know she said she would be.
