welcome back, fam

true to life

It's a rational argument, but give that a number of states have had similar requirements for decades (and *cough* the political implications) I can't see the current SCOTUS siding with him.

I'm on summer work hours so I don't have to be in until 10 counterpoint is that regardless of when I have to work, there's a toddler here who follows the beat of her own drum

pretty sure it was someone who tracked zeni here with a friend because he was harassing them or something elsewhere.

good luck!

He said several times in the hearing that he was using terms like "biologics" and "craft" because he either couldn't confirm or couldn't disclose what they were, but wanted people to keep an open mind.

I hated the FB algorithm when I used it, there would be that one guy who'd post political trainwrecks and I'd do the old slow down to view the disaster here and there, then FB thought that's all I wanted to see. My personal Twitter figured out what I actually liked to mindlessly scroll, a weird combination of politics/elections twitter/video game whatevers. YouTube is kinda doing that drive-by thing right now that FB used to do, but I don't actually watch a variety of stuff on it so I can't say it makes a difference.

idk man, it seems pretty bipartisan all the way up to like Chuck Schumer, and the hearing had people like AOC and Raskin asking real thoughtful questions. the point being ICARUS LET ME HAVE THIS

when I first set up a UEMB Twitter account and tried to follow as many [as]/toonami adjacent people and things as possible to baseline a feed, OH MAN the algorithm on that it was like pure furry porn but worse
