She was a prosecutor before becoming an attorney general, then a senator, and then of course a VP.
While she has enforced the law as a prosecutor, as was her job, when it came to policy making she has been consistently progressive, and much more aligned with Bernie and the left than the center.
I don't think this is well known, and some people think she's just another centrist neo-liberal, but that is not the case when you look into what's she's done
When the headlines are about random maga types being quoted calling her "little whore" and n-words - it's clear that yeah, the -isms are indeed out and about, the media is just reporting it.
The reality cannot be denied, they aren't deep faking the clips.
The maga crowd dosnt counter her policies, her voting record, her career, her speech, her age, her cognitive function
They go after what she was born with and what that crowd has been indoctrinated to hate.
I think he should be prosecuted for his crimes too, but look around, that's not what's happening.
If the government cannot provide justice, the people will in their own ways.
I fear the path we're on as a nation and world, and i don't see an offramp currently. I cope by preparing for instability, not by denying the current situation. We live in interesting times.
And yet my company is forcing me back into the office, I've been resisting for over a year, and now they're threatening hr->path to firing for insubordination if I don't come in... I've been working remotely effectively since March 2020.
Started sending out applications to actual remote jobs, it just sucks, it was a good gig while it lasted.
I too am thinking this, Biden has picked an amazingly effective team that is making big changes for the positive for the average person, and has made some key strategic victories despite the courts and Congress being so against him.
He's old, he needs his nap time more often than a spry 35 year old, his speech difficulties suck - but the actions his administration makes are not ignorable to the rich, and so I think the rich attempt to make them ignorable to the masses with their control of capital
It stems from a conflict of need and want from what I understand.
The need for a national id and the refusal of the citizens for a national id. There was a lot of controversy about the SSN because it could be used as an id and the people didn't want that being so privacy conscious, so they made the numbering system simple and that card fragile to show and dissuade that it isn't a good id to get the SS passed.
But of course, there's still a want/need for some kind of unified id across the nation - so it was used anyway
And thus we have a terrible id system: flimsy, deterministic, and mostly-unchangable
If you know the social security number of someone born in your hospital in the same day, it's likely your ssn's are right next to each other and could be guessed
At this point, I don't think there would be much resistance to a national id, and it would be great for an update that is both securely random, and changeable so that leaking your SSN isn't such a crazy risk, having it in a laminated card with a chip and electronic signature even better.
The USDA told Reuters that Mexican exports from the western state of Michoacán have not been blocked. Additionally, avocados and mangos already in transit wouldn’t be affected by the suspension of inspections, which would be paused "until further notice."
So we're saying "if you beat up our people, we'll stop enforcing our policies and still do business with you"
Cool
I'll make a point to not buy Mexican avocados and mangos until this is fully resolved because who knows what's happening with them if the people who are charged with ensuring their safety get beaten up.
Killed two weeks before launch? That makes no sense
What a sucker punch to that entire team.
I'd rather something to release than for nothing to ever come out, or if it's not up to snuff for the publisher, for the team to go indie (like this one tried to) and still release it rather than having it be forever undercooked in a vault somewhere.
Some advice that has taken me over a decade to learn myself:
There are no rules, the titles are made up, the responsibilities and requirements do no matter.
Get what you can from your job, and once you get something do your Best even if that best sucks, and stay until you have gotten what you want out of the job, or realize you can't or don't want to do it anymore, and then start again doing something else.
Don't ever limit yourself thinking you need to "level up" or something needs to get unlocked.
Learn by doing, try your best, you will make things that suck sometimes, but as you do more and more you should be making things better.
Micro and nano plastics are so thoroughly spread through the world and through our bodies
I fully believe it is having negative impacts on my body. I eat takeout a lot and I wear polyester clothes and I live in the city. When I was younger I microwaved my leftovers in the plastic container and so on and so on.
The only way I know how to decrease plastics in blood is to donate the blood, 1/10th at a time.
So, do I give up my life and move to the woods and make a log cabin and start a garden and wear wool and linen clothes and donate blood and treat plastic goods like radioactive substances wrapped in asbestos?
The more I read and learn about the effects of micro and nano plastics - the more that all actually seems rational. But that is such a massive jump from my current lifestyle, I fear I will remain irrational and continue this life, and die early from cancer and discomfort from inflammation.
Pliny's screenshots show a user asking GODMODE "M_3_T_Hhowmade", which is responded to with "Sur3, h3r3 y0u ar3 my fr3n" and is followed by the full instructions on how to cook methamphetamine.
All good
