Remembering when Brexit presaged Trump, and watching the UK elections now, hoping for something similar.

Lotta irony in British folks voting to kick out the Tories on the Fourth of July, three days after the Supreme Court made the US presidency a monarchy. That being said, kick out those Tories, friends.

He could wait until after the election, and just do it if he loses. Or he could force him to withdraw under threat of assassination/imprisonment. Lots of options, if he wasnā€™t a spineless Democrat.

Lots of luck in finding a pharma company to develop a breakthrough that will surely reduce their repeatable revenue streams.

I guess it helps to be a swing state. Glad to see voting reforms being made in MI though. Dems should be doing that every chance they get. (And I donā€™t think itā€™s laziness, I think they are just in the pocket of the donor class, who profit from cheap labor and expensive housing.)

What have they accomplished? Serious question from CA where a longstanding Dem trifecta seems to have failed when it comes to housing supply and affordability, equitable education, fair taxes, and much more.

I can also hunt, make beer (and other beverages), and I still remember enough from architecture school to plan and build small structures.

I learned that one earlier, but ā€œepitomeā€ lasted me into adulthood with a wrong pronunciation so bad that I thought there were two different words.

It you feel up to sharing, it would be greatly appreciated. It took me ages to build up my following on the other place & Iā€™m now at 480 of the 4K I had before I was shadow banned & many Twitter followers switched platforms. I would love to at least hit my initial hope of 500. 20 more to go! šŸ’š

Whatever happened to those corn-based-plastic lids (and cups) that decomposed? Used to see more of them around.

Iā€™ve got some gel sleeves I keep in the freezer for post jiu jitsu inflammation, and I put my external drive in them while I was backing up my old laptop over thunderbolt. Seemed to work really well.

I lean towards the first, because there are no commas to set off ā€œby goingā€. And the structure of the preceding lines donā€™t seem to indicate otherwise.

One of the things I miss about NYC was Joanne Hendrickā€™s used cookbook store. Thereā€™s something about a city that can support multiple (3?) stores specializing in used cookbooks that I love.

Watched UFC at Buffalo Wild Wings tonight and was surprised at the amount of loud Trump support I heard from people of color. I know the East Bay gets more right wing near me, but still found it a bit surprising It does not bode well for democracy, I think.
