Outside of Florida, cholera and syphilis are more popular than DeSantis.

Boy it would be a tragedy if 30-50 feral hogs trampled Ken Paxton into a paste.

You stated that the INR would have rigged an election. That is just as false as saying the FBI rigged a foreign election, that’s not what those agencies do.

Does the US fuck with the domestic affairs of other nations? Of course. Does the INR play a role in that behavior? Sure. Does that role include rigging elections? Absolutely not. They might suggest it, but the CIA would most likely do the dirt, the same way the CIA may be involved with armed insurrectionists but it’s going to be spec ops operators doing the training.

She said it in 2006, when she was a senator, not the Secretary of State. So I’d argue she absolutely did not mean “we” as “the state department.” She likely meant “we” as “the United States Government.” Either way, at the time she would not have been in a position to tell anyone to rig the election, being a democratic senator with a republican in the White House.

This agency that has zero foreign assets or any function beyond analyzing raw intelligence gathered by other agencies? They were going to fix an election?

Isn’t there a journalism rule about not having a headline be a question with a yes or no answer? Seems like there should be.

This is what keeps being ignored in these studies, and it seems like the only reason is that copping to the real reasons young people are showing higher rates of mental illness would require admitting that the status quo is unsustainable and frankly evil.

A report that said “gen z is profoundly distressed by the reality of global warming” means admitting we need to fix the climate or see our kids suffers deaths of despair in unprecedented numbers. The same is true if we admit that the economy won’t provide most of them a job that allows basic survival, much less a comfortable fulfilling life; or that these factors have combined to cause a turn to fascism.

Eh, to be fair I think a lot of Biden supporters suck too, if not bad as trump supporters.

Ken Paxton and Greg Abbott deserve to be peeled.

Okay, I’m not OP but a follow up question that occurs to me reading the explanations of what Wayland is, is are there any distros or spins of distros that use Wayland by default?

I am shocked, SHOCKED that hasbarists are using agents provocateur and trying make the protesters look bad.

Can anyone link the full text? “Just sign up” might as well be a paywall.

Based on past studies I’ve read, probably D.

Every time I see a headline like that, I think “it’s racism, right?”

Unless he means with a filet knife I’m not impressed.

There’s a value to having a standard image or images that are used to assess compression algorithms’ performance. It could just as easily be a picture of a bouquet of flowers, or a bunch of puppies.

My exact first thought. After decades of (uneven) improvement, women’s rights are globally taking a massive hit. No wonder women are becoming more left leaning.

“Listen, I’m a trial judge. I don’t know about murder. So I’ll just have to trust you, the accused murderer, to tell me what’s important in this case.”
