McCarthy Says ‘We’re In a Very Bad Place Right Now’ Thanks to ‘Crazy Members Led By Gaetz’
  • The question is whether the new conservative party would push even further right wing as a whole. The Republicans had a schism in the late 2000s when the Tea Party was formed. When that movement was absorbed back into the Republican party, their ideology was pushed further to the right.

  • Senate Democrats introduce bill to implement term limits and biannual appointments to Supreme Court
  • No, the Constitution says, "The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour, and shall, at stated Times, receive for their Services, a Compensation, which shall not be diminished during their Continuance in Office." in Article 3 and in Article 1 "The Congress shall have Power . . . ] To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof."

    It could be said that Congress is mandated to pass a law defining Good Behavior, so that the judicial branch can execute its powers as defined in the constitution.

  • 30's wheel of pain
  • Given that Lemmy is largely populated by programmers, I assume they have done next to no exercise through their 20s and mostly sit hunched over in a chair all day. So now that they are hitting their 30s, they are paying the price for abusing their bodies.

    You don't need to be huge like Arnold, but find some way to move your body every day. While you're young in your teens, 20s, and 30s find different and interesting ways to keep your body moving and build up strength, whether that be swimming, running, larping, lifting weights, finding a local exercise meet-up, local sports league, or walking to a park and using the little exercise machines.

    A lot of the back issues will go away with more core strength and lifting things properly with your legs. If you can't think of anything, then start by sitting up straight and tall in your chair using your core to stabilize yourself and see whether in a few weeks you can get through a half or maybe even full day without slouching. Anything is better than nothing!

  • Senate Democrats introduce bill to implement term limits and biannual appointments to Supreme Court
  • There's nothing that says it can't be done. But I'm sure SCOTUS will have something to say should a case make it to them.

    Constitutional amendment would be the best way. Not sure if it would be easier via Congress or State Legislatures given the implosion on Capitol Hill.

  • This concept for budget double decker airline seating
  • And for people with blood clots! Locking your knees prevents blood flow and can get those clots forming faster.

    Since locking your knees while standing makes you pass out, I wonder if locking your knees while seated also makes you pass out.

  • What’s the Real Difference Between Stuffing and Dressing?
  • It's a regional thing. This is the first I've ever heard Stove Top referred to as stuffing rather than dressing (although it would be blasphemous to serve at thanksgiving).

    I've never known dressing to be cooked outside the bird. You cook dressing by putting as much in the bird as will fit and then let the rest cook around the bird in the juices in the roaster.

    Maybe it's a north vs south thing. I've always seen it referred to as dressing exclusively on menus as well

  • IRS will pilot free, direct tax filing in 2024
  • You can download forms from the IRS website or use free software like TaxHawk. Many people prefer to use similar software that you have to pay for or pay an accountant to do their taxes for them.
