This article is ridiculous It looks like I need to start bookmarking sources to R-antics again for when his bs gets rugswept again and all the Republicans get on board.

Fuuuu

But it’s not just that one story. Vance has tried to claim he has a mountain of “evidence” that migrants are eating cats, dogs, and geese from local parks. And they all turn out to be garbage. NBC News talked with a woman in Springfield, Erika Lee, who was behind one of the Facebook posts that far-right influencers elevated online before Vance really kicked it into high gear. It turns out Lee’s post was based on something she’d heard from “an acquaintance of a friend” and that she had no first-hand knowledge of anything like that happening

Did I miss some detail? I get the impressions from the comments this is some really poor choice for user experience as people will often pause to check something

But in my experience pause ads are nothing new at all and they start after the device has been idle. What did I miss that makes this different?

You’re so right. Your point deserves a lot more recognition than it got. Don’t shut up, don’t stop what you’re doing.

To be clear, I mean the courts are absolutely failing this child and caretaker by allowing the abuser to have have access to the victim(s)

This article has sooo much being said between the lines.

The mother, Rachel Pickrel-Hawkins, said the reunification therapy by Christine Bassett, a licensed marriage and family therapist, has been harmful, abusive and counterproductive

When the other party is there perpetrator of abuse and the one with power, it very often is detrimental to have some sort of mediation or therapy/counseling. Because the abusers very often are able to manipulate the story so they are the victims in need of most support/compromise/thoughtfulness/time/money/basically ANY conceivable resource in life and relationships they will exploit.

Now I admit I am more familiar with the medical side of things but this entire dynamic gives me pause because it is so psych 101.

In my opinion : The money is MUCH more lucrative now because of data mining. That’s it. That’s the real product being sold and because it isn’t encouraging innovation for innovation’s sake, but for a bottom line or goal that almost certainly depends on features that gather ad much data as possible to sell… etc etc

Sorry if I wasn’t clear but that’s my logic and point, yeah. I think maybe it got interpreted the opposite way or I’m tone deaf to your sarcasm or smth

My guess is Walmart will cave, Costco won’t. Target waits to see what happens before making official moves.

What if they are surprised because they were pearl clutching so hard they thought it was gonna be worse?

I’m sorry for this topical cheap reply but I genuinely don’t pay attention much to the faces of people because my brain won’t log them, correctly or not at all, anyway. So yeah dude I saw this and like…

Idk if I’ve ever seen a more caricature evil villain IRL Maybe DC (comics) should hit him up

Lol I almost realized too late that DC needed to be specified, either would have worked (some may argue one more rhan the other)

I used to collect these and keep them in a coffee tin filled with dirt (and air holes) they bred like crazy. I loved those little rollie pollies so much!

It was the 90s, insects weren’t even on the radar of animal cruelty. Parents definitely weren’t commonly teaching against it. Before anyone @ me. I disagree with it now.

Please reply to my post with any random emoji if you had tangible relief and improved relationships when trump was kicked off Twitter.

I noticed an immediate and drastic difference in my work environment, for example. I could elaborate but would ramble

Before I could drive and had to walk everywhere??? DAILY

Yeah thanks for pointing out something that sort of tickled my brain for a while now and made the thought full formed. I’m going to start pointing this out because it is WILD that we have a culture of saving children from the predators and then also blaming children for being preyed on. And it’s just the one side.

How much hypocrisy can someone swallow ffs???

Yeah they aren’t bad but the nature of this type of thing is largely statistics and self reporting and all sorts of other stuff smarter more scientific, academic minded people could point out than my stoned brain recalls. Things that can be interpreted differently much like translators could translate the same scene between characters with different dialog and undertones.

I mean it isn’t like they are outright disproven or liars or anything… just it is often up for scrutiny because that is the nature of sociology.

Freakonomics talked about this ages ago

Not that they are a proper source or anything just… one of those things where it feels true and you keep seeing examples of it forever

When I see the most depraved defense from lawyers like this it just tells me that the person is so fucking guilty that I now suspect them guilty of even more than we know.

“The agency claims authority to regulate everything from a power lawnmower’s design,” he wrote, “to the level of ‘contact between trainers and whales at SeaWorld.’”

I fail to see anything wrong with either thing like… is he just mad it is not the people who sell lawn mowers should decide what’s safe?? Please please please don’t tell me Americans are going to dip to this new level of cognitive dissonance

Just not nearly as much, and most importantly they are held much less accountable for those things without OSHA or similar oversight…
