I’d like to point out to younger people that good or bad, future employers check your social media before deciding whether to hire you or not. They’re not supposed to do that but I know many do so consider what you post and how it could affect your future. #jobs#employment#socialmedia
Marjorie Taylor Greene Greene disgracefully disrespected Dr. Fauci during a hearing today: "Mr Fauci -- because you're not 'doctor' -- you're Mr. Fauci in my few minutes. No, I don't need your answer ... he belongs in prison"
A pair of Texas professors figured out that their female students have sex and, boy, they do not like it.
So now the philosophy professor and finance professor are suing for the right to punish their students who, outside of class, have abortions.
"Pregnancy is not a disease, and elective abortions are not 'health care,'" University of Texas at Austin professor Daniel Bonevac sneers in a federal court filing with professor John Hatfield.
Instead, Bonevac writes, because pregnancy is the result of "voluntary and consensual sexual intercourse," students should not be allowed time off to get abortions.
If the students disobey and miss class for abortion care, the filing continues, the professors should be allowed to flunk students.
Additionally, Bonevac asserts that he has a right to refuse to employ a teaching assistant who has had an abortion, calling such women "criminals." https://www.salon.com/2024/06/03/texas-professors-to-fail-students-seek-abortions/
West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin is leaving the Democratic Party and registering as an independent.
Manchin had previously announced that he would not run for reelection for his Senate seat.
His change in party affiliation now means he can run as an independent for the Senate,
or even for governor of West Virginia,
where he’d take on Republican rival Jim Justice.
He has not announced plans to do either yet.
Right now, the move makes him the fourth independent in the Democratic Caucus.
#foodtoot I may need help with this: I splurged on some nice ravioli, filled with ricotta and artichoke, at the Italian deli, but I don't know what kind of sauce to make with it. Any suggestions?
@eribosot you could try cooking it in broth but I think a light cream sauce would pair well with it. You could tone down the garlic and use some chives

19 Republican states have filed new appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court to intervene against lawsuits filed against big oil and gas companies. The lawsuits allege that big oil and gas companies lied to the public about the potential climate harm of fossil fuels. However, Republican states are pushing back, claiming California and other states do not have the authority to dictate the climate policy for their citizens.
