Exec in big tech. I have to stay semi-anonymous because my employer generally doesn't like us to be publicly controversial and I like freely discussing controversial topics.

I am going to put this in a separate post but all of this reminds me of something.

I had a case pending in the Third Appellate District in California about 20 years ago.

I knew I was going to lose. This particular panel didn't like my clients very much.

I had an author/ personal website and one of those stat counter devices so I could see who went to my website. It was obviously a personal website about my most recent book, a Civil Rights story.

vegangster,

@Teri_Kanefield You figured out the IP address for the court and saw activity from that IP? If so, nice hack. :)

Former Trump official William Wolfe warned that Christians are getting close to “heed the call to arms.”

Why?

He said Christians are “in danger by the loss of our religion”

Honey. No amount of persecution fetish and AR-15 pins is going to save a crazed minority from getting a beat down from the United States armed forces

I double dog dare you.

vegangster,

@flexghost That's like Sean Hannity believing MMA will help him with an armed gunman. https://youtu.be/OQvNdBKroPU?si=4MzLBRVUWb24CzfQ

    @Teri_Kanefield My primary source now is your feed. I uninstalled twitter and facebook six months ago. I can definitely provide the counterpoint that my politics-related rage has not been this low in the last decade. It saves my rage for things that actually deserve it. 🤓

    First day of daycare 😬😬😬

    vegangster,

    @ben Went through it a year ago. Relief to have them in someone else's hands for many hours every day.

    @Teri_Kanefield What is so hard to fathom is that the right is reading a similar level of detail on the Hunter Biden story right now, with an equal sense of disbelief.

    @Teri_Kanefield I thought the takeaway from Hillary's email was that there was some grey area of crime (a non-zero mishandling of classified information) but she was cooperative and apologetic and likely without sufficient intent, and so they decided not to pursue charges.

    vegangster,

    @Teri_Kanefield Re-reading the story on factcheck.org, your "brush past" analogy helps me interpret the facts as more accidental than purposeful. Harder to look past the false/misleading accusation but as a layperson I don't know the nuances of whether that in and of itself constitutes a crime, so will take your word for it. Thank you for your insights as always. https://www.factcheck.org/2016/07/clintons-handling-of-classified-information/

    vegangster,

    @Teri_Kanefield The gender bias is patently obvious even to a normie techbro like myself. 😂

    I have felt the need to get additional clarity given it's the main whataboutism the GOP is using for Trump as of late. So thanks again. 🙏

    @Teri_Kanefield really tough to get this type of comedy right these days, but he nailed it.

    Someone once threw a 'gotcha' question at me.

    Hey, since you're vegan, how is it you support abortion? Isn't that hypocritical?

    It only took me a moment.

    "No. I'm against forced birth."

    vegangster,

    @oliphant The pro-life meat eaters are the hypocrites. They talk about how advanced the fetus is but have no problem with killing and eating a mammal far more advanced than a human fetus.

    Elon Musk lost $13 billion in 24 hours on Thursday, and he’s still the world’s second richest person

    Don't tell me billionaires can't afford a wealth tax.

    vegangster,

    @rbreich Who says they can't afford it?
