I’m under the impression there are more votes to lose by not appearing to stick with Israel than there are votes to lose by not attempting to intervene. At least, that’s what the party appears to have assessed.

It’s absolutely not enough time. Those are serial killers in the making.
Fuck is wrong with you?
I support this new saying. What’s wrong with people literally fitting the original label? I think we generally appreciate those people, right?
Yeah, good point, but that article isn’t talking about what’s in this picture.
Store-bought sandwich bread usually can be kept in the fridge without much change in texture. That’s because it often contains additives and preservatives that keep it fresh longer.

That’s a big motivation for me, too, but I’d say it’s about equally that I want archival of the best stuff for when rights holders pull their catalogs from the services I stream. I used to think that was mainly for the more obscure stuff, like local bands’ early albums that I can barely find anymore, but recently I’ve noticed albums missing from main services (Tidal and Spotify, in my case) for bigger acts, too.
Cleveland clinic says says about coffee’s laxative effect:
Researchers found that 29% of coffee drinkers report a desire to poop after drinking coffee. The feeling can come pretty quickly, too. (In as little as four minutes!)
And about lactose intolerance (same article):
An estimated 65% of people have some difficulty digesting lactose, which can lead to restroom runs. Lactose intolerance can cause diarrhea and other gastrointestinal (GI) issues within 30 minutes of consumption.
I gnu y’all would find a way to pun it up.
I thought it was because he’s afraid he sounds like he’s saying “lion” instead of “lying”, and he doesn’t want to risk sounding complimentary.
It is ridiculous, but it’s also exactly what is happening with loud combustion engines. Any sound coming from it is just higher-entropy (i.e., unused) energy being produced and promptly lost instead of contributing to power.
I thought, “What’s wrong with ‘fascist’ in a politics forum?”
Data can be beautiful. I just found a similar but maybe clearer example from 2016 with a nice write-up about it.
Teaser from that article:
I think the common term for these is “cartogram”.
For me, it’s helpful to remember what the underlying reality is.
Skewed for population and colored on a red-blue scale to reflect vote mix.
When those votes are counted, the resulting electoral votes align to those votes, which results in maps like what you showed. When strategists tune their messages to target demographics they can divide (e.g., rural vs. urban), they’re playing a game of inches and shades on this map of purple goo, and that’s still the reality behind the ultimate electoral vote, even if it doesn’t feel like it.
Keep voting, everyone!
edits: So much autocorrect.
It blows my mind that centuries-old concepts “let’s not jump to hasty conclusions” and “people should be free to protest the government but not break the law” just got called “flaming progressive”.
edit: Sorry, now I see what you’re saying, that those were some points that pull people from across the aisle.
Keep in mind, though, so far, we only know it to be a user experience issue.
“Incomplete paper and online applications will not be accepted,” Evans said in the statement. (Parker’s cancellation request would have lacked a driver’s license number.) The Secretary of State’s Office did not respond to individual questions about what testing the portal underwent before launch, the system’s security procedures, what happened to Parker’s cancellation request…
It doesn’t matter what the browser says if the end user tampered with the running page to make it say something. It matters if the application might have been processed. They’re claiming it wouldn’t have been processed since it was incomplete (lacking ID number). We’d need to know how this was handled on the back end to know how risky it really was. It could still have been bad, but this isn’t, in itself, proof of an actual problem.
edit: Just to be clear, I’m not saying it shouldn’t be investigated. It really should be, as the article claims, an all-hands-on-deck moment. I’m just saying that the article makes the case that it should be investigated to ascertain what would have happened to the incomplete application submission to assess the exposure, not that it definitely was a vulnerability at all.
And primaries are the “real” elections to get us there. General elections will continue to be major party A vs. major party B, with a “this is the most important election ever” backdrop, while primaries are where we have to try to get our important issues (like election reform) carried by generally electable candidates to get those issues injected into the parties.
And the amount of money spent on primaries confirms how influential they are capable of being.
