Minnesota native laughs at +40c to -40c annual span.
I walk every morning a couple of miles outdoors, I wear a long sleeve shirt at 10c or below, a light jacket at 5, go from shorts to sweatpants at 0, a hat and real jacket at -5, and we don't walk below -15.
How to lie well.... make 1/4th of the lie have a statement of fact.
peppering your statements with truths is how you get people to think "oh... well maybe they are right".
It's not that hard to validate this, just google it. (No, life experience...)
Like saying people were to blame for the reflecting pool fuck up. Sure that was true, just not any of the people Trump or the justice department blamed, it was the installers and morons who managed the project. Yah we get it, thanks for the lying pro-tips.
We were all waiting for federal cases to be built, or some disclosures. When it became clear that simply wasn't going to happen, one year into Trump's term the Republican controlled House and Senate passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act in November 2025.
I don't know what Biden's DOJ was doing, but Congress figured out what Trump's definitely wasn't doing after more than enough time had passed. Republicans controlled the house for the 118th Congress, Biden's last two years. Try asking your congress critters why they thought 2025 was the right time to get involved.
Around 2029 we'll see that a ride is available for $16 or $31 with a driver.
Rider's choice. I'll guess it goes about 80/20.
That is what it is supposed to be. We don't rehabilitate in the US we PUNISH, and incidentally teach criminal techniques.

He seems like a real scumbag but it's worth keeping in mind that the people who told us that have a massive incentive to pin their crimes on a scapegoat.
Since we pretty much know that FTX was the #1 donor to a party's political action committee with money laundered through Ukraine, he would have been smarter to wait for that conflict to conclude.
The people who benefited from the crime also prosecuted him which is never reliable.
It might not be FedSlop but unless it is proven that both parties didn't benefit we shouldn't trust this government either.
We do know that Ladybug Graham got $18M straight into his bank account from Ukraine so there is certainly smoke.
It's only since a dead man can't sue for libel that people are willing to print that nugget now.
Not in a Corporate Democracy.
The people who would prosecute OpenAI want to use OpenAI to maximize their power and wealth at your financial and legal expense.
Remember when they tried to extradite Gary McKinnon for twenty years for looking at a spreadsheet when he accidentally got RDP access to an unsecured NASA desktop with a simple Perl script? Intent is not relevant for prosecutors (mens rea should be an element in a Constitutional case).
The legal basis is there but the will to power is not.
Two systems of courts for different classes of people (yet again). It would be an error to call that a Justice System.
n.b. the Culture War psyop is there to try to convince you that the classes are something else.
...Says the side literally endorsing fetish frankenpeople cavorting specifically for children.
You understand that literally everyone who reads your comment (whether they agree or not) recognizes you're a ccp-sponsored bot, yeah?
Does Fox "News" give equal time?
They don't have a broadcast license since they are only on cable or streaming. So this threat doesn't apply to them.
But, to answer your question, no, they never even tried to give equal time. And they never tried to present facts, either, but that's a different discussion.
Fox "News" can mean many things, but this sure is broadcast. The actual answer though as a news segment, no, those are exempt.
Actually, they have. Pete Buttigieg and Bernie Sanders have appeared on multiple Fox shows. So too have the Democratic governors Gavin Newsom, Josh Shapiro, Wes Moore and Gretchen Whitmer, and senators Amy Klobuchar, Elizabeth Warren, John Fetterman and Chris Coons also dropped in on the network. (Although some may consider Fetterman 'barely' a Democrat these days.)
Well for one thing, the question was Fox News, and they'd likely be exempt as bonafide news right? If we're bringing the rest of Fox (we mean broadcast right?) into this, having had people on is not AT ALL the same as fulfilling equal time requirements. Jimmy Kimmel has had people on, Trump himself, Ted Cruz, etc. it doesn't mean anything.
The question is really if Judge Judy (national program carried by Fox broadcast affiliates) had a special with Ken Paxton, guest judge, on trial, jury, makes no diff, does the station have to give equal time to James Talarico.
TMZ Live, if they have Talrico on, does the Fox affiliate have to give Paxton time?
Or, does the 700 Club, that syndicated weird religious fake news program, if they interview Paxton, is the station required to give equal time to Talrico?
Dr Phil Primetime: One on One with Donald Trump aired in 2024 in several broadcast markets, did they have to give Biden/Harris equal time.
That's a good spread of entertainment through the faux seriousness spectrum. The only answer to any of these now is we'd have to find out because shits different. Some of those are not actually hypotheticals, we used to know the answer from past precedent, some we wouldn't know unless the candidates cared to ask. We definitely know the FCC didn't go bulldogging their party's opposition. Can national programs be broadcast safely with political candidates in them, and does the answer depend on which team they play for.
There are corrections to gravity that include the current size of the Universe as s term that gives extremely small differences in calculations but explains most observations.
It has a certain allure from an Information Theory perspective and is extremely parsimonious in ask.
But funding is for finding wimps and axons and evidence of mysteries that use the old equations so you are called crazy if your simple theory threatens that gravy train.
Some people say useful physics is too dangerous to fund and we're better off wasting time and money.
Twenty years ago Dark Energy seemed like a good idea to me. So did Supersymmetry. Most new ideas that can be tested and used or disproved probably should be. That LHC found no Supersymmetric pairs is a good thing.
Apologies to the original.
According to a report I heard yesterday Talarico has 50x the cash of Paxton and it's the Bush politicial machine that is funding him.
The situation was similar in the primary but the base favored Paxton over Cornin by such a huge margin that the spend didn't matter.
The dual state people hate Paxton so much they have been after him for years.
It's populists vs. oligarchs in most races where party affiliation is a distant second to the money machine.
Since Trump ran on populism but then did a 180 with Judas knives out for his "former supporters" the odds of any Republican getting elected anywhere but an R+20 are extremely thin regardless of warchest.
DC's interference in free elections is gross but it probably won't matter on Election Day.
Impeachments of officials over FCC actions are quite likely at this point.
She sounds much more like Elizabeth Holmes than anyone else.
âoeWe need to have European politicians who are ambitious,â she said. âoeEntrepreneurs cannot do this alone. We need to be backed by the politicians and by the European Space Agency. But we have to start by achieving the crazy targets that weâ(TM)ve set up for ourselves. That will give trust to others to believe in what weâ(TM)re doing.â
eg
"I don't have a plan, but I have ambition, and with piles of your money I can work toward what even I recognize is basically unachievable. If YOU believe in me, then others will also believe in me and I'll be rich, I mean, we'll be successful!"
Do you guys know what you're doing, or are you just hacking?
