Rosa Parks was breaking the law, too. If the law is stupid or unconstitutional, suing is how you get a court to make that determination and strike the law.
In this case, the cyclists’ argument is that they are following the law and the NYPD is incorrectly citing them.
Time for Jello Biafra to write a new updated California Uber Alles
This is a child. He attended middle school, so he’s at oldest 14. The article makes it sound like he was severely disturbed, he needs psychological care.
Israel is a test of the limits of oppression both technologically and legally. They are building the technology that will allow the wealthy and ruling classes to oppress the poor when things go bad, and developing the legal arguments for why that is okay.
Coffee beans aren’t beans, they are pits. Vanilla beans aren’t beans, they are seed pods.
Sounds right.
Or a coalition of media companies maintaining a legal defense fund.
I had heard it was popular outside of car commuters from outside the city, have you seen reports otherwise?
My understanding is that the Israeli economy relies very heavily on US support. If Netanyahu begins to turn away from the US, he’ll have to call on European nations for support, and at least in some places those populations are more aware of and disgusted by the behavior in Gaza. If Israel can’t get other foreign investment to continue propping up their economy, all those Israeli companies that have been attractive investments for the last 4-6 decades are going to tank hard. Along with trumps idiocy, an Israeli collapse could be a complete disaster for the industrialized world.
This is a point more people need to understand. One thing I would love to see more of is journalist-owned news outlets, ideally in a co-op model (so the writers can agree to bring on, say, editors and photographers as the income warrants it). This is the only way to guard against the wealthy just buying the press and thereby dictating the narrative.
Thanks for the rundown, I got used to spotlight when I was using macOS, and the main selling point for stuff like Alfred seemed to be things spotlight already did. What you describe seems way more useful.
I’ve seen launcher apps discussed for years and I’ve never seen an answer to the basic question of “what do they do?”
Yeah, there’s a big difference between “this herb has some naturally occurring anti-inflammatory compounds” and “this berry is a cure for cancer and lupus and the common cold.”
Regarding yoga, stretching and bodyweight exercises are definitely a good part of fitness, but the mystical side of it is complete horseshit.
People laughed when leftists talked about the yoga studio to fascism pipeline…
In all seriousness this is utterly fucked.
I just read it as “guys who are douchebags often say hello in languages they don’t otherwise understand.”
I hadn’t really listened to her music before, it’s not really my style. But I’ll be listening more now.
At this point, I don’t know that you can be pro-Israel but anti-genocide. It’s a nation founded on apartheid which is just a few steps removed from genocide itself.
The podcast Weird Little Guys just concluded a long series of episodes about the weird bullshit leading up to this.
I don’t know many leftists who keep that secret. “Apolitical” is typically indicative that someone is more or less fine with the status quo, which is an inherently conservative position.
Same.
