It will certainly be interesting to see how they handle Trump. I read that Georgia doesn't have governor pardons equivalent to the presidential pardon at the federal level, it has a pardon review board and you have to complete your sentence and then be crime-free for the following five years to even apply.
On its surface, this case seems like it is the hardest for Trump to get out of.
I've usually just walked into a local pharmacy and asked if they have the booster. My local pharmacy just has a standard paper form for all vaccination (flu, shingles, covid, etc) walk ins, there is no website or arbitration clause or even specific covid form. You might want to try a different pharmacy if that has been your experience.
I just hope they don't cost an exorbitant price now that the national health emergency has ended here. It was really nice being able to get them for free because I am poor.
They went on endlessly about Benghazi. No amount of investigations will shut them up until they get bored and latch on to a new topic to beat to death. Same thing with the long form birth certificate from Obama. Finally producing it only brought claims of forgery and more conspiracy theories. The thoroughness of the investigation is irrelevant when the doubters aren't seeking the truth to begin with.
They had a lot of weird stuff in Enterprise. I would love if they did a show in that era that was actually about that era instead of time travel shenanigans. It would be fun to learn about how the alliances and rivalries built up, the successes and blunders and cultural clashes. From what I recall, season 4 was when they finally started looking at that stuff and by then it was too late.
Yes, let's see all those fired Twitter employees get their legal bills covered for daring to criticize him in their tweets.
I live in a rural area and gave up Amazon shortly before the pandemic. I switched to ordering items directly from the manufacturers' websites. Giving up Amazon doesn't mean giving up the rest of the internet, though admittedly some manufacturers link you right back to Amazon instead of running their own separate storefront, so I have to look for another.
I'm from Texas and "yeehaw" is a southern slang celebratory exclamation, so it's something people from outside the area kind of expect they might hear out here. It's maybe a bit rural and unsophisticated so you don't really hear it in casual conversation except rarely to be silly, but you see it enough in old movies depicting cowboys that most Americans are likely familiar with the word even though it's not regularly used.
When I heard about this server called beehaw, I thought it was just nonsense syllables. Then I saw the bee in the logo without really noticing the details and thought someone added a nonsense suffix to the word "bee". It wasn't until someone suggested members should be called the yeehive (which looks like hive with a nonsense prefix) and another commenter said they finally understand the server name that I took a closer look and noticed the cowboy hat and realized the name was from combining bee with yeehaw. Bees aren't really associated with cowboys, so it's not very obvious if you aren't looking for it. It's a pretty absurd amalgamation but the drawing of the bee in cowboy gear is adorable.
Wouldn't cumulative user-seconds of screen time per day be plummeting if you can only see 500 tweets per day or whatever that limit was that he rolled out? I'd be doubting any company's claims of record high viewership at a time when most of their users were reportedly being locked out of the site due to a new policy, even if their metric didn't have such an oddly specific name.
I have a new internet connection that is vastly better than my old one. I live in a rural area that was still on dial up until 2012, then got DSL. It was archaic, to say the least. Mostly it was more reliable to use my phone's LTE hotspot than to use the house internet. Starlink had a waiting list when I looked into them (not that I really wanted to give Elon any money), a local internet provider required us to install an 80 foot tower to get line of sight to them, and so far up until now all the cell phone companies that offer home internet plans have always had "not available in your area" when I put in my address.
On a whim, I checked one of our cell phone providers' websites last week because they recently installed a new tower nearby and 5G home internet was finally available! The speed varies wildly, sometimes it is 20 Mbps and others it's 100 Mbps, but the DSL varied from less than 1 Mbps up to 4 Mbps download speed. We can download games in minutes instead of hours now, it's so exciting. It also costs $50 per month instead of $160, the old internet was a total rip off!
Breaks are good, I hope you find peace and refreshment off site. I enjoy reading your posts so I hope at some point you are able to return, but I also can understand if it turns out to be too overwhelming in the end. Thanks for all the work you have done.
I am surprised roughly a quarter of the protesting communities have stayed dark. That's way more than I expected out of a two day protest. It's no mass resignation, but it is more effective than most of the follow up protests.
Perhaps lousy might be a suitable replacement?
