I live in LA and just checked my TV after reading your post. Colbert, Kimmel and Fallon are all playing as usual (it’s 11:45 here). But they’re all reruns from earlier this month. That’s probably normal on a Friday, just like The Daily Show doesn’t even run on Fridays. The networks have hope for you having a social life on Fridays.
So, maybe your local stations did do a blackout, but you’re not missing out on Trump blowing Mamdani. Maybe SNL tomorrow would be good for that.
I tried this and was no longer able to separate my email into Primary Updates and Promotions, and I started getting pings for every stupid ad. So I put it back. I think I’ll start sending weird emails to myself; “teach your kids (the AI) to talk wrong.”
“And here we see the seatbelt sliding sideways to squash one boob and cut into the side of the female dummy’s neck because it’s not sufficiently adjustable. Meanwhile we notice that in order to be able to fully depress the brake pedal, the female dummy must position the seat so close to the steering column that the airbag will likely cause severe injury.”
They’ve been told these things by actual living women for decades but maybe they’ll find it harder to ignore the proof from the plastic dummy.
The miasma theory claimed diseases were caused by bad sanitation, foul odors and unhealthy air. Before the discovery of germs, it led to the creation of a sewer system in London, and ventilation systems in hospitals, (both of which helped reduce exposure to the germs they didn’t believe in) although it didn’t stop greedy water companies from pumping drinking water from downstream on the Thames, or ease overcrowding and poverty.
The problem with Kennedy’s “just get healthier” version is that like all other Republican schemes it doesn’t provide any actual support for doing so. Because that would take money from the deserving wealthy to aid the indigent poor!
We all know where the real foul odor is coming from…
Old person here, with short legs. If I can hear your feet I’ll try to keep to the right, and I might even slow down a little to make the passing moment faster. I appreciate if you say “On your left,” as you go by. Because then we’re both heroes.
What if the reason homo sapiens out-reproduced Neanderthals is that Neanderthals were so much better at oral sex?
There’s established precedent of few or no consequences for such chatter, and the original perpetrator has already been punished. If it bothers you, refuse to date anyone who participates in Trump-blowing-Bubba laughter and memes.
Yes, and if you GENTLY press on your eyelids you can make other colors happen.
Also if you stare at a clear sky, NOT AT THE SUN, or at a bluish wall, you may see little swirly things, it’s the white blood cells in your retinas swimming around.

Might be a good moment to ask the Board if they’d like to go another route
Did you delete a comment, or is this your comment? Because funny if so
Mythical or not, how creatures or people are portrayed in media often has very little to do with how they actually are. Or especially how one acts towards an individual, such as you. As long as it’s not leading you into doing something dangerous, or withdrawing from reality, your version/interpretation is just as valid as the stories someone else dreamed up.
Yeah that’s what I thought… In the 1970s.
I’m sorry to say it’s not going as well as I’d hoped.
I’d say it’s pretty hard for a woman to both have enough experience to be taken seriously as a candidate and simultaneously have no past baggage or party agenda.
And I don’t think most male candidates are held to that standard, either.
The misogyny is palpable. In the country as a whole.
You probably type too fast for the old typewriters and don’t hit hard enough, but you’d adapt. And don’t forget the carriage return!
Trump is directly responsible for Kavanaugh, Barret, and Gorsuch. That alone has been destructive already and will reap us tragic consequences for decades to come. Would Hillary have signed the ERA and gotten the right to bodily autonomy written into the law so it couldn’t be “reinterpreted” away? Maybe. But she wouldn’t have set attack dogs after it, and after trans people and immigrants.
That’s not true of most schools or most rains. I not only grew up in SoCal I also taught here, and only got two “rain days” in that entire time.
Well of course it’s not, there’s no excuse. Gaetz is a predator who exploited and raped her, full stop.
Like I said I’m not excusing either Gaetz or the US. I also wonder whether she would have been more comfortable leaving her teeth crooked if she weren’t in the US, unless it caused health or eating issues.
But it’s here on Lemmy, and in years past on the other place, where I have heard people’s frustration about teeth being separated as “luxury bones” under even the best healthcare systems. It goes back through history, separate schools, but the more we learn the more obvious it seems that dental care is healthcare.
From what I’ve read and heard, many poor people just don’t get any dental care, whatever country they’re in.
I wish for her sake she’d been able to find an orthodontia school where she could have gotten her braces from a student under the supervision of a professor.
Yes you are wise. I have a couple gifts ordered from companies who have decided to bombard me with spam, but I need to track the order until it arrives and then I can block them.
