That was quick. I saw it cross my headlines this morning (Lemmy as an aggrigator is slow sometimes, and thats not a bad thing).

Looks to me like the judge took one look at it and tossed it right in the shreder.

I heard this on the radio this morning and could have sworn they called him Michael Bolton and could not tell if they were doing an office space bit.

Something, something, Mastodon, something, something…

Thats enough singing for now lads.

[Don Cheadle points finger] Tree! Tree! Tree, Tree, TREE!!!

Basic human deceny is a foreign concept to you, aint it…

Probably for the best, that game is radioactive right now. They have a chance to fix it in the eyes of some people, but for me, bungo is a dead company walking.

Someone is eventually going to break kayfabe and punch him, those ovel office meeting look incredibly stressful for the guests.

Grow up…

Yah… After Nixon closing the Boston naval shipyard in retaliation for not voting for him, Massachusettes has done a fairly good job at isolating itself from federal shenanigans.

They will have a rough time when the dept of education gets completely doge’d but they will fair better than many other places because this is not their first rodeo.

Calling it now, insider trading (If that wasnt obvious already, look at the market 30 min. before the announcment)

Dito, still have RIF installed on my phone so every time I click a reddit link im reminded of what they did with a 403: forbidden error. I like it better over here anyway, nicer people who give a shit and fewer bots (or atleast fewer obvious ones).

Happy thoughts my dude.

Japan is sending us some new cherry trees for our birthday. (I know its more complicated than that, but take the little moments when they happen)

Woot

At the time of posting, he is ~5 hours out from the record.

Edit, 3 hours, I cant read clocks…

Thank you, you are a gentleman and a scholar.

I guess it is in a traditional sense, but they are very infrequent these days due to the senates rules and their collective lazyness.

IIRC the current version of the filibuster is a combination of two rules (procedural rules of the senate, not laws).

1. Votes on bills cant be done while a senator is talking.
2. You cant force them to give up their speaking time (which is how ever long they want it to be) unless 60 members of the senate vote to get them to stop.

Back in the day, you actually had to be talking the entire time, but in the senate’s lazyness they changed the rules to streamline the entire process. Someone to just say they are going to filibuster something and they have the vote, to see if the matter gets dropped or not. I think its a squares vs rectangles sorta thing, a filibuster is done with the intent to kill a bill by not allowing the voting process to go forward, this appears to be doing the same before they brought anything to vote on. The outcome is still the same, the senate does nothing.

Insurer’s plays reverse uno card: your decals provoked the vandals, therefor its not an accident or act of god, no payout for you.

IANAL, but because this was done on a third party encrypted chat app, doesn’t it also violate the federal records act or something? If this was any other administration they would have been launched out of a cannon for that alone, not just the breach in security.

Explain!
