Texas has one of the strongest ‘Stand Your Ground’ laws of self-defense that cannot be nullified by a jury or a progressive District Attorney,” he said in a statement. “I thank the Board for its thorough investigation, and I approve their pardon recommendation.
pesky juries and DAs thinking they have legal authority!
It’s part of a shifting norm and shifting norms are always controversial. Especially norms that involve opening up bodily autonomy, dignity, or respect to previously excluded groups.
This is not a right wing resource, but if you’re interested in learning about the arguments and historical evolution of ideas that underpin economic liberalism/neoliberalism, I highly recommend Geoff Mann’s Disassembly required : a field guide to actually existing capitalism. It’s concise, relatively short, and treats the ‘other’ side like rational actors (which is important for understanding, I think).
Ofc this would only help understand people who are quite well informed.
Remember water guy?
Imagine being the warehouse employee who opened the package

They shout out a stat from gallup I hadn’t seen— 43% of people gallup polled in 2023 identified as independent. Much higher than I thought.
Edit to add the gallup source they referenced.
Wtf, breaches aside why would a health care company be working with advert companies?
Related to bargaining, I read the wiki article on Iran’s nuclear program the other day and was surprised at how hard they are trying to do their nuclear program “by the book” while the US keeps blocking everyone else from agreeing that they’re entitled as long as they follow the guidelines (paris agreement etc).

It would be interesting to look at generational differences in what people consider a splurge at the grocery store nowadays. Things like chips that didn’t used to be luxury priced cost $5-$6 dollars a bag now. I’ve always considered items more than about $4 (for individual items) to be expensive.
Things that I ate regularly that have drifted into “splurge” territory for me in the last few years:
-chips
-Veggie italian sausage
-Naked juice/bolthouse juice
-grapes
-chocolate chips
-pineapple juice
-potato bread
-salad dressing
-croutons
-yogurt
-cottage cheese

Oh good another economist swearing things are good because they’re using 2022 as a reference (@ that dumb thanksgiving anecdote). It baffles me that they’re baffled.

I always imagine it going:
Uni admin: “They’re approving kids for how much?! Well fuck $3000 a semester, let’s triple it!”
And now universities depend on that increased revenue and there’s no simple way to roll it back.
Somehow I don’t think insulting people is going to get them to want to participate in your shit show
I haven’t played around with them, are the new models able to actually reason rather than just predictive text on steroids?
Would have been cool for them to host their own instance with just the one account
City governments are like “but developers pay us for the privilege of putting up the luxury buildings, win-win, right?!” and miss that it doesn’t house any of the population that needs it. I’d rather directly build public housing with my taxes.
All the US cases and most cases worldwide are linked to people working closely with infected animals according to the article—no mention of raw milk.
