  • Uh, no; They were saying “Booo-urns! Booo-urns!”

  • Without thinking about the validity of the ICCs argument for it, I wonder if part of their concern is whether or not having an antagonist like the ICC doesn’t shore up potentially eroding domestic support from Gantz and his allies.

  • Not “may”, the wording is “shall” and “with””. And while I would have rather they try to end run around the road block, shall and with have specific meaning in legal documents that is much less wishy-washy than “may”

  • This announcement is entirely part of a plan trying to build up good will before ruling Trump immune from everything.

  • I wonder how hard it will be to make this all… DISAPPEAR…

  • If a bear pisses in the woods, would Bear Grylls try to drink it before going back to his hotel for the night?

  • In a normal media environment I’d agree with you completely, the problem is that we have a media apparatus that is set up as a propaganda arm of a political party and mainstream media thinks that balance is that any negative news story must be balanced by a negative news story in the other direction (“Trump incites riot and Biden mispronounced his granddaughters name, why both could mean the collapse of their campaigns” type coverage), instead of being balanced in standards of reporting.

    I don’t know what the solution is. My strategy though is to work down ballot to get better people in positions to push Biden and get him more flexibility to make better choices and changes.

  • Sure it’s good, but it’s no Streets of Rage… 😉

  • Pitch for the NYT:

    THIS Week: Top Republicans not sure if they’ll accept election results. And Biden is so old and confused he mispronounced the name of the prime minister of Belarus. Which is worse? We asked ten voters in a diner.

    9/10 agree it’s Biden.

  • Sometimes things aren’t your fault but are your problem. And men making excuses like “just locker room talk” and not confronting other men in their lives who do or say toxic things or espouse ideas or personalities that generally make women uncomfortable are our problems, whether or not they are our fault.

  • Arctic and Mlem for iOS.

    Arctic is my primary, it was the first that I know of to include admin tools, the single developer is super accessible and on top of for resolving bugs and does a good job at supporting markdown both in the editor and the viewer.

    Mlem is my backup if I need to access 2 different spots on the Lemmy-verse. It has a great viewer and interface but is missing a markdown editor.

  • It was discovered apparently when he went in for mercury poisoning from eating too much tuna. Mercury poisoning… in an anti-vaxxer… who has cited mercury as a reason to avoid vaccines…

  • “There are just too many pre-trial motions yet to be decided for us to continue on the original plan” she opined, having chosen not to decide them in the when they were raised months ago.

    - not an actual quote

  • Not yet. He’s made reference to it in a couple filings, but hasn’t actually filed yet. My guess is that it’s such a monumental request for this particular trial, he needs there to be no question that he has her dead to rights, “When you strike at the king you must kill him”.
