Yes, I have no clue how she felt about the article from 2000, and obviously reading it with a 2024 lens is not fair to the original author. I am happy for her that the obituary didn’t deadname her like the original article did, and hope that she would have been ok with the pronouns used the way they did pre/post transition.
It’s a double edge sword, but I think people are just sour that there is no choice for this election. If there were primaries in 2024 and Biden didn’t win, then that would be unprecedented and a recipe for losing against Trump. One could argue that in 2020, the primary process forced Biden to adopt a more liberal stance with regard for Student Debt loan forgiveness, which he would not have done otherwise.
You’re right, very weird use of pronouns in the obituary. I can only imagine that most of it was lifted from the article from 2000. That doesn’t excuse misgendering someone, they could have updated it for 2024.
Just like how in 2020, NYC painted a Black Lives Matter mural on the street directly outside Trump Tower
It’s like poetry, it rhymes.
If Trump wins (and the senate is R), Thomas and Alito are for sure resigning and will be replaced with younger shitter people who will make major decisions for the next ~30 years.
Our system sucks but it is what it is. Voting for Biden doesn’t mean you endorse everything he’s done, it means you realize the alternative option is worse and for sure don’t want that.
RIP SALLY RIDE!!! 😭
Or there will be one/several episodes showing the backstory of the fire that she’s getting revenge for, where Carrie-Anne will be heavily featured?
“I don’t want anybody going on me. We need every voter. I don’t care about you. I just want your vote,”
This was one of the three Trump quotes they have in the article. He added he was just joking but pretty sure he was serious.
Could it be you’re allergic to your laundry detergent or something introduced when washing it?
“I wouldn’t go up there. It’s really narrow.”
It has its downsides as well
Leaving a bar to catch a train and I did this when closing my tab. Ended up in a conversation and missing my train.
But but suddenly critics it’s but. I’m not defending the bot this is just the first words of each paragraph and it’s really annoying to read.
Those luxury RVs don’t pay for themselves. You expect Clarence Thomas to take away our basic human rights and subvert democracy in a regular RV?
Does Microsoft’s GitHub offer any pre-receive hook configuration to reject commits pushed that contain private keys? Surely that would be a better feature to opt all users into rather than Windows Copilot.
I misread the title as 2,019 trips were paid by Harlan Crow, and honestly wasn’t surprised that the amount of corruption was that high.
One Switch can have two states. Switch on is a 1 and switch off is a 0. Group 8 switches together and you get a byte. Miniaturize the switches and put 8 trillion of them into the size of a fingernail, and ta-da you have a 1TB micro SD card.
Wire up two switches so that a light bulb only will go on when both switches are on (1). This wiring creates an AND gate. Adjusting the wiring so that if either of the switches are on, the light turns on. This wiring is an OR gate.
Channing the output of the lightbulb and treating it like a new switch allows you to combine enough AND and OR gates to make other logic blocks, NOT, NAND, XOR, etc.
Combine enough logic blocks and you can wire up a circuit so that you can add the value of two switches together, and now you can start to perform addition.
This all naturally evolves to the point where you can play Skyrim with the most degenerate porn mods.
Imagine if they become cell mates in prison. I smell a sitcom.
Not saying it’s not an internet meme, but NBC News seems to have ran the quote yesterday, and hasn’t updated the article with a correction:
he Biden campaign slammed the former president in a statement about the expected gun license revocation.
“When Trump tells the NRA he won’t do a damn thing to prevent convicted felons, domestic abusers, and other dangerous people from getting their hands on guns, he’s talking about himself,” said campaign spokesperson James Singer in a statement.
I checked James Singer’s twitter and couldn’t find a written statement, nor a rebuttal to NBC News article, so maybe this was a spoken quote off the cuff?
This is great and all, but what I really need is an alternative picture of shel silverstein to put on the back of the book.
