A few days ago, I'd sent you a note to volunteer to assist with any non-development "stuff" that I could take off your plate. That stands.
Home Depot, many many years ago (20+), used to hire people who were experts to work departments. Best Buy used to have concierge experts to help you with phone, camera, electronics purchases. I really wish that stores would do that again. The only differences between stores that sell the same items now are price and availability. Actually focusing on service would easily set a store apart.
WFH, desk job, multiple monitors, remain sitting at the desk after work because fuck outside.
THERE'S A DONUT SHORTAGE IN INDIANA??!
I'll airlift some in, you can price gouge them, we'll split the profits.
I can only hope it was with a side of fava beans and a nice Chianti.
I'm sure that by "outsiders" you mean "people who go outside," and I agree.

Because you clearly do not know what that term means.
We are immigrants who didn’t grow up here, so we have no idea what’s normal and what’s not.
I'm not sure where you're from or where you are, but considering how this is escalating, I don't think it matters.
I would actually take this to the school administration - principal and counselor(s) - and not to the specific teacher. A second grade teacher may not have the experience necessary to handle it properly, but the administration would. And you don't have to bring it as "I want you to do something about this." Present it as "This is definitely something you should be aware of," at least in your first conversation with them.
/s definitely means serious.

Wrong guy.
Those revelations came to light last night when former Missouri Representative Shamed Dogan (R-Ballwin) tweeted out a screenshot showing the unofficial candidate filing list for governor posted to the Secretary of State's website. On it, Darrell Leon McClanahan III's name sits atop more well-known GOP contenders like Mike Kehoe and Jay Ashcroft.
This is apparently a thing he does, and this will be a "walk in the park," so to speak:
In 2019, he became the first and only person to make the 80-mile round-trip hike to Mount Everest Base Camp without shoes. Two years later, he set the 2021 Guinness World Record for the longest barefoot journey after hiking 1,875 miles on the Australian coast. Now he plans to break that record by walking 3,000 miles from Los Angeles to New York City, entirely barefoot.
Trump was never going to win Illinois anyway.
... willful idiots we had this time ...
Oh, there were plenty of those in 1918, too.
Carroll's case is federal, this one is New York State.
I am right now sitting on a Steelcase Series 1, and while it doesn't have great lumbar support, it is far better than any shitty $150 "gaming" chair, and is right in your price range brand new.
This is for the tax case; Carroll's judgment for the most recent one was $83.3M. They're both civil cases, though this one is NY State, and Carroll's is federal.
In either case, if the bond amount is not posted, there is no appeal, and assets can be seized to fulfill the legal consequences.
Tangent story, I was in Manitowoc, WI, on a motorcycle trip. In WWII, they built submarines there, and they have a US submarine at a museum on the lake.
You might remember Manitowoc as being the area where Making A Murderer happened. Turns out that series only gives a light impression of the local accent there. The tour guide for that submarine sounded like he was speaking a completely different language from English.
In order for groups to function, the people that make them up have to operate in a sufficiently shared reality. The best one of those to operate in is, of course, actual reality. The more you deviate from that, the less cohesive your organization is.
Yesterday, I made bad decisions. I may make bad decisions tomorrow. But today, I made a decision that was slightly better than it could have been, and I’m calling that a win.
And vice versa.
And also "shower."
That's what my brain wants to know.
Edit: I know you would die, but I need someone to put together a Mythbusters-esque test with a pig stomach or something.
More important edit: DO NOT DO THIS DUMBASSES
The character Archie Bunker in All In The Family was originally offered to Mickey Rooney, who declined. Carroll O'Connor lived in Europe, and accepted the role only because he thought the show would fail and he could go home, so much so that part of his contract with Norman Lear included a return plane ticket to Rome so that he could fly back when it failed
Over the last few days, there's been an increasing problem with spam accounts from lemmy.blahaj.zone. It seems like they're working on addressing this issue, at least in a one-at-a-time fashion, but it's clear that they have not been able to proactively prevent the problem yet.
Of specific note, these accounts are posting links to offensive images. kbin.social doesn't display these images inline (at least not for me), which is nice, but the fact that they're being posted anywhere feels like a liability concern for kbin.social could be raised.
I don't pretend to know what can or should be done to address this. I just wanted to bring it up, because @ernest should know about it.

Good luck with dealing with this
This is a place for posting original source documents, courtroom videos, all the stuff that everyone writes articles *about.*
Original Documents Original Documents (kbin link)
While journalism is certainly valuable for adding context and insight around news stories of the day, it's also important to have the documents being referred to at hand. This enables you to find bits that don't come up in reporting, and compare the reporting to what was actually written or said.
At present, my posts have been centered on the many high-profile trials going on in the US, as there tends to be both a large amount of documents and reporting thereon. But there is no intention to restrict content to that.
A career military officer who went from fighting in Iraq to serving in the White House as a national security adviser, Vindman acknowledged that he is a newcomer to Virginia politics.

By invoking the defense, the defendant waives attorney-client privilege and must therefore disclose to the government (1) all “communications or evidence” the defendant intends to rely on to establish the defense, and (2) any “otherwiseprivileged communications” the defendant does “not intend to use at trial, but that are relevant to proving or undermining” it.

In a free press, journalists must expose the truth even if it upsets those in power. Our work often leads to significant backlash, and we at The Onion are no strangers to receiving threats of legal action. While we generally dismiss them as the baseless accusations they are, we recently found an old cease-and-desist letter from the president’s personal attorney that has caused us to reexamine this policy.

I am trying to focus on posting source documents, as opposed to someone else's reporting on source documents.
