  • So there's that, but also the position of "special counsel" or whatever dumb title he holds is time limited. You can't be an unelected government official indefinitely (although I'm sure the current administration would change the rules if they cared enough to keep him). He's making it sound like he's bowing out, when it was the plan to step down in May from the beginning.

  • I don't know if it's the circles I'm around or what, but this is not my experience at all. As someone with a nonverbal autistic loved one who was bullied with this slur, I disagree with the idea that it doesn't cause harm to continue to use it. If someone uses it I ask that they don't use it around me and that's been respected. Language evolves over time, and we need to evolve away from using what was relatively recently a medical diagnosis as an insult.

  • It sounds that we are on the same page, in that it should not be difficult to vote. Logically it follows that introducing barriers to voting is wrong.

    As for the financial piece- all I will say is that circumstances change. $50 dollars may not be much to you (or it may not have been much at the time of the initial name change), but it could mean the choice is between being able to vote or being able to eat.

  • Friend, I don't think anyone is arguing that it's impossible. The problem is that there's an additional burden (financial and administrative- have you ever changed your name? It's a nightmare.) being targeted at mainly women with a side benefit to the Republicans of affecting trans folks.

    Do you see how that is inequitable access to voting?

    Any Roguelike/Roguelite suggestions?

    I've sunk probably a thousand hours into Slay the Spire, have beaten Hades, and just finished Cult of the Lamb. Looking for something else to scratch that itch- preferably on switch. Any suggestions?

    Update: Y'all convinced me. I bought Binding of Isaac and am excited to start. I also tried out Dead Cells via Netflix, but feel like I'd prefer it with a controller compared to mobile. Gonna start with Isaac, and wait for a sale on Dead Cells. Thank you for all the recommendations! I'm saving this thread for future reference.

    How would you make this cut?

    I'm looking to build shelves beside my fireplace but need to trim my mantel width down to accomodate them.

    I have access to a circular saw, a reciprocating saw and a jig saw. I could also get a router if needed.

    This is from a diy website but they had this part done by a professional. I'm just curious how you would go about cutting this. What tools should I use?

    What do zoos do with dead animals?

    I mean, if an elephant dies what do they do with the body?

    What's your favourite -dle? (Daily puzzle game?)

    I do the daily wordle, but lately have been liking the murdle and the hexcodle.

    I've tried worldle, but I'm crap at geography. Probably a reason I should play more, but thems be the breaks.

    Any recommendations?

    Ghostie Bag

    Second ever bag, first time following a graph. Tons of fun. Now I have a bag to use for the next month and a half!

    I really like the way the green turned out. I used scrap yarn so the white was actually a 3 instead of everything else which was a 4, and only have a 3.50 hook. Overall, still in love.

    Guess the animal

    I made this as a gift, but long story short I don't have the right yarn colours or the right sized hook or the right eyes. So I improvised. Hoping it still reads as the animal I intended!

    Ps. The recipient knows my current status and why I can't procure the correct yarn, etc. They'll still appreciate it I'm sure.

    I learned how to do proper magic circles and now I have a new hobby.

    The hobby is tiny octopus friends. Pattern by Mohu.

    Dollar store yarn (labeled mini skein with no actual weight), 3.0mm hook. 6mm eyes.
