Cool article, and I respect it. But personally, I don't do any of those things.🤷🏿♂️
I just say, "I understand." And listen.
Anything else feels like I'm trying to persuade someone who has clearly thought about this deeply, and often, in my experience, has suffered a pain or loss that I'm not ready to hear.
Eg, I can't follow someone saying, "This is my niece. She was 6." with anything persuasive.
Dig a little deeper - they didn’t so much as uphold the lower court ruling as much as they declined to call it up for their review. May not be the right set of facts to try to set national precedent on. Wait for a conflicting decision from a more liberal appeals court on similar facts and that’s when the question will be ripe for review. https://universeodon.com/@JenLucPiquant/112275772329361356
@mjf_pro I hopped off to Linux a while back due to to the nonsense of Windows 11. I’ve lost nothing. I can do everything I did on Windows, the laptop runs faster , doesn’t freeze all the time.
I can also now, when I need to, “upgrade’ to used slightly older hardware that Linux will make run as well , or better than, a brand new machine running Windows.
#dfw#eclipse weather - At the moment, if I’m reading my Windy app right, the only model that’s verifying right now as I look out the door is the NAM, and that model shows some partial clearing north of I-20 at eclipse time. Cross y’all’s fingers. 😎
@tshirtman If we strand Israel, we sacrifice our own foothold in the Middle East. Netanyahu knows that, and it limits the pressure we can put on him without jeopardizing our own interests.
@mjf_pro as usual, the people able and willing to destroy something if they don’t get their way are left to control it, because others know how much of a pain it would be to lose it, though in the process, it is lost anyway, because it has to be made as brittle as possible for them to have as much leverage as possible, and at some point, it will crumble. The US is hated by most people in the middle east, people will more readily turn to russia or china or whatever for "help".
