I’ve tried mastodon and followed a couple people. But I never did Twitter either. Could you recommend how I could best use mastodon? Who to follow, or for to sort/search out whatever what’s popular? I couldn’t figure it out

I’m thinking several people didn’t realize that he was talking about food

That’s not showing in my blue city, but another movie “Am I Racist?” is showing (or not? Maybe they don’t hit play if the theater is empty).

It seems to be about a racist guy who takes on a disguise so nobody recognizes him as the racist guy and pretends to be a mentally ill progressive or something and interviews people

NYT and other major outlets that carried the same Reuters pull used language of “the channel based in Qatar”. AP said “broadcaster”.

Actually, Reuters only said “entered”, so NYT added “forcibly”. AP only said raided. BBC also said entered.

Russia article is about a law passed that made it illegal to discredit the Russian military and lead to thousands of arrests and stamping out protests. It was a months long investigative report

Israel article is a news push from Reuters. However the Reuters article, and the rest of the media that used the piece included the word “raid” in the title. The original Reuters article also was much longer and included Al Jazeera response…

Makes me wonder if sticking your head in an MRI every couple weeks would rewire your brain…

I love how this company repeatedly rags on Hellmann’s, but even more I love their Black Friday gags. But even more I love their political actions. I know it’s all just marketing, but it’s incredibly entertaining.

Honestly, if you want quality educational support, subscription services are more often going to be your gold standard. Ones that work in a browser probably best bet. Line ABC Mouse or whatever.

My cousin’s friend’s wife got the vaccine, and a month later had an STD even though neither of them had an STD before. Now my cousin has the same STD too because the government is spreading the vaccine through the air now.

I love it. Order when you’re ready. Don’t have to wait until the waiter is done helping the other table. See additional “substitution” options listed that you wouldn’t have thought of trying. Pay and leave when you’re ready to go

Is that a speed camera plate cover, too?

As of now they’re still considering this a test, so people have to still carry and have available their physical ID in any situation.

But, off the top of my head, say you’re going through security and already have your plane ticket on your phone, that is all you will need to have out.

If you’re buying some booze at the circle K and already planning to pay with your phone, again no need to get out your wallet.

I dunno if the ends justify the means, but use-case is kinda fun I guess

Are you mad at verge for not expounding on what that button does, or trying to display the issue itself?

I looked it up. It’s true!

That wasn’t my opinion. It’s statistically a higher percent raise than average.

Just to clarify, the evidence provided by opposition is not from exit polls. The evidence is genuine voting receipts from the machines that are supposed to be* guaranteed to each party’s site observers

*Opposition says many of their observers were removed without being allowed access to their polling site receipts to explain why they didn’t have them all

The electronic machines provide every voter a paper receipt that shows which candidate they chose. Voters are supposed to deposit their receipts at ballot boxes before exiting the polls.

After polls close, each machine prints a tally sheet showing the candidates’ names and the votes each received. Party representatives stationed at polling sites throughout election day get a copy of the tally sheet, and electoral authorities keep another one.

Sorry but I’m criticizing your initial reply to the fact that wage increases are statistically high. Yes, 70 cents raise is a lot for a grocery worker. And it’s especially important, as OP said, when compared to the rest of the world US is rising faster.

The “2/3 of states” reply, while factual, was misleading as well as tangential to the original point you were replying to.

Idealism has an important place, but not when it results in pure cynicism

Shrugs? Well fuck data I guess

Less than 2% of the population is making minimum wage. Median income is more than double minimum wage. Even in rural areas

I agree it’s not enough, should be raised and all that, but it’s not the reality (because that number is so ridiculous)
