Do you have a link?

I don't know how these things usually work as there was no indication in any of the articles how the successfully media handled it. It seems crazy there would be such a knowledge gap.

Feels pretty obvious that seating would be limited and coveted, and there was contact information in the announcement for "more details". If I had no idea how to get an invite, I'd have written that email May 15th. But maybe there's more to the story than either side wants to tell.

Oh. I don't know anything about this. Is it weird for an app to be pulled from all of these sites? Do they have a way for the original developer to take it down if they want or some kind of flagging? Does your new phone have a higher Android build, maybe the site checks somehow to match with the right version and then fails? Wild guesses

But the fact that so many stores have dropped it recently, though it's clear they once had it, may mean something, idk.

This article explains it better. First of all there are plenty of black owned media companies, more than one in Atlanta who were denied credentials:

The NNPA represents the 197-year-old Black Press of America, which counts among its more than 230 newspapers and media companies, The Atlanta Voice, Atlanta Daily World, and the Atlanta Inquirer. The popular Rolling Out magazine also counts among the Black Press’ members frozen out by CNN.

However, they were apparently all denied based on the Jun 7 deadline.

CNN implies the deadline was stated in their announcement of the debate on May 15th but the only deadline mentioned is for polls determining which candidates could participate.

President Biden and CBC and Rep. Meeks lobbied CNN for Black media inclusion after the denial.

Omg, this is amazing. Ok hear me out, you think bribes are expensive, but at local or even state levels they can be very reasonable, so here's what we do is GoFundMe for legislators, where regular people bid money into escrow for a certain rep's vote and if they do it, they get the cash. Of course people of wrong opinion can also bid so it's not guaranteed to get you what you want, but you can collectively at least make it more expensive for them! Normal bribery requires all kinds of relationship development and professional lobbyists to make sure it's works right, so it's available only to the well funded few. Post-vote bribery is open to all and cuts the smarmy middlemen.

I know you're appalled, but consider how out of touch most reps are from their constituents. They are told all day long by these lobbyists that you don't really hate genocide or that you really count on them to keep drilling for oil. Here you can tell your real values to their face with money, the same arbiter of truth those billionaires are using. Not for a campaign, but for a specific vote!

Not saying you're wrong, but just to add, [this article] (https://www.opb.org/article/2022/11/18/demolition-plan-of-four-klamath-river-dams-moves-forward/) gives a good account of the issues with several dams along one river. The electric company saves money by demolishing compared to building required fish ladders. They were already expecting less and less power from the dams due to low water levels, which may be drought or competition with irrigation. The dams only accounted for 2% of the electricity they sold, so I'm not sure how big the replacement project will be, if any.

One thing to note is that activism like this does normally happen in "spurts". The legislative cycle is very long and most projects that eventually achieve government backing also require a lot, even matching, private money. Backers may go through several rounds of hype before catching the attention of a big local family or other donor that makes the whole thing plausible enough for the government to act on.

Nearly half who were removed [during post-covid eligibility audits] were able to reenroll, the survey showed, suggesting they should not have been dropped in the first place.

These are people who have no funds and no recourse. If it takes months to re enroll, that's months without healthcare, including residential facilities and home health services Sometimes food and shelter programs are also tied to Medicaid eligibility.

I just thought at the last second it was disrespectful to people with seizures. The s probably doesn't help with that anyway though

This is ludicrous. The Republicans have nothing to worry about. It does not matter to their voters at all. He could start shouting "kill, kill, kill" until he has a seizure and craps himself on stage, voters: "just like Jesus"

Amazing article, thank you. Sets out clearly how we got here and what is at stake.

[Tire sales] are growing a little faster than the population, but still slower than the GDP [sad tire manufacturer noises]

Why should sales in a static (and resource intense and polluting) technology like tires grow faster than the population? Making money off the stock market seems kind of evil

EVs are still part of the solution, though. Not spilling gas all day long on every corner of the city would be a big deal.

That's fun, reminds me of high school Shakespeare performances

Pretty much:

switched its vote “given the strong alignment of executive pay with shareholder returns since 2018 and the benefits the board asserted related to the motivational value for the CEO in preserving the original deal.” Vanguard also voted to allow Musk to relocate the company from Delaware (which is the site of a big lawsuit about Musk’s pay) to Texas.

I agree. If the choice is between phone polls and ai from Reddit, the ai at least might surface something they didn't already think of. What they do with the information is still up to the party/candidates and still likely to be fuck-all since they didn't really want your opinion anyway.

So is original phishing supposed to be over the phone? Like it's the email game called emishing or something?

The thing that triggers the alarm is flat and often applied as sticker. Most likely the bold design is meant to alert the cashier to deactivate it. But if you're suggesting that you can just keep walking after the alarm goes off, I think your chances are good, unless like all the Walmarts near me, there is a police officer in the exit lobby.

I think about the venting: one thing you can do when you know you've gone too far with it is just to thank them for listening and tell them it makes you feel better to be able to say it all out loud. Just turn the conversation away from your problems and leave them with a good feeling at the end.

I'm glad people are studying this, and I do agree there is a lot of unwarranted fears mixed up in this topic. But full acceptance of this science will not answer the whole issue, as in this study

All transgender participants had undergone hormone therapy for over a year

Which is not the definition of transgender used by teams and organizations in most of these controversies, if athletes even want to disclose their health history.

I always count to twenty to know when my turn is up, and why is no one reminding me to save some for the fish?
