Assuming that research is accurate, and also given that those 3 things make up a huge portion of my diet, then I’m probably mostly made of PFAS these days.
Ask me anything.
I also develop Tesseract UI for Lemmy/Sublinks

Whether it goes anywhere is a crapshoot.
Which time? (Sorry, couldn’t help myself. I need the small joys. )
Not sure if “CVS receipt layout” is a common term or not, but I’ve used it over the last 10 years or so.
It describes websites that have massive margins with the content displayed as a thin strip down the middle; everything on the side is just wasted space (or crammed with ads).
Receipts from the retailer CVS are a known joke where the smallest, single-item purchase will generate a receipt that’s 6 foot long because of all the ads, coupons, and other junk tacked on.
In the old days, it was a lazy way to make websites work on desktop and mobile. Now, it’s a lazy excuse for not doing responsive design and/or allocating massive amounts of space for ads. I hate it. lol.
Is Clarence Thomas okay, like upstairs? Does he just go around pointing at random things and screaming “Unconstitutional!” ? Is “unconstitutional” in the room with us right now?
Artist’s Rendition:
Yup. Same.
Though I only have 3x 1080p ones so I have to fudge it and size the browser window across multiple monitors lol.
Hey, I pay for those pixels along the sides, so I expect them to get used once in a while 😆
Are you being sarcastic? That looks terrible. I hate when websites go for the CVS receipt layout.
Or did you just zoom way, way out for the screenshot? I’m on mobile so it already looks CVS-receipty.
Edit: Oh, you did just zoom way out, so I take a lot of that back. Still don’t think it looks great though. Cluttered and just “too much”.
Basically they’re arguing that the case against him was built partly on evidence from his time as president. I have no idea why the prosecutors have agreed to go along with that. Best guess is to keep things in the same case rather than have it go to a different trial/appeal?
Although the Manhattan case does not center on Mr. Trump’s presidency or official acts — but rather on his personal activity during the 2016 campaign — his lawyers argued on Monday that prosecutors had built their case partly on evidence from his time in the White House. And under the Supreme Court’s new ruling, prosecutors not only cannot charge a president for any official acts, but also cannot cite evidence involving official acts to bolster other accusations.
…
In response to the letter from Mr. Trump’s lawyers, the district attorney’s office wrote that prosecutors did not oppose Mr. Trump’s request to delay the sentencing. "Although we believe defendant’s arguments to be without merit, we do not oppose his request for leave to file and his putative request to adjourn sentencing pending determination of his motion,” wrote Joshua Steinglass, one of the assistant district attorneys who tried the case against the former president.

Definitely. But there’s also disproportionate representation at play.
Let’s say there’s a mass exodus from the shittiest of shithole states leaving only, say, 100 people. For sake of argument, that’s sufficient for the state to continue existing and with a state government.
That 100 person state still gets two US Senators and (at minimum) one House rep (technically, it retains as many reps as it had as of the last census up until the next census in 2030). It also qualifies to be one of the required 34/38 states to call for a constitutional convention as well as vote to ratify the proposed amendment.
So, the takeaway is that all elections matter. Get out and vote every opportunity, and vote for sane people who aren’t going to pull this kind of crap.
if voting wasn’t this important, why do you think they’re working so hard to disenfranchise so many people?
60% of the population disagrees, yes. However…
The Constitution provides that an amendment may be proposed either by the Congress with a two-thirds majority vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate or by a constitutional convention called for by two-thirds of the State legislatures
So, 34 red state legislatures can propose an amendment. To be ratified, it requires 3/4 of the states (38 out of 50) to ratify it.
For either of those steps, I’m not sure if the citizens of those states have any say in the matter or if the legislatures can do it all themselves (plus or minus any veto from the governor of those states or legislative overrides of those).
So, they need 34 states to propose an amendment and 38 to pass it. As some else in this thread said, they already have 28.
Second, yeah, all of the above plus some.
“We believe this deal is in the best interest of
the flying public, our airline customers, the employees of Spirit and Boeing,our shareholdersand the country more broadly,” Boeing President and CEO Dave Calhoun said in a statement late Sunday.
Fixed that for them.
It’s funny how mergers and acquisitions are always the cure all for every company’s woes, but every time one company gobbles up another, everything always gets worse (especially Boeing). Then the cure for that is to…buy another company. It’s like the corporate equivalent of “Of course having a baby would save our failing marriage”
You missed “synergize backwards overflow” but other than that, I think you hit most of the business buzzwords.
Just updated again. Looks like she did come back for him. At least, I’m assuming she did. They normally don’t wander off from where their mom stashes them.
Not yet.
Got about 30 minutes of shade left in that spot, and about an hour before I have to let the dogs out. I’m afraid I may have to move him.
Luckily, I think it’s the same one that I usually see in the back yard, so I can prob move him there without momma having too much trouble finding him. Gonna wear gloves and try to minimize the amount of my scent that may get transferred.
Took all of my restraint not to boop it. lol.
Thanks for this.

I wonder how hard it would be to pull this list into a JSON file to use as an additional reference?
Lol, if not live forever then at least be preserved for eternity.
