By virtue of the fact that up until just a few months ago, you could even go there and casually peruse security sensitive and classified information if only you found the right bathroom, I guess you could say it was priceless.

This makes me wonder if team Trump isn't preemptively muddying the waters for pending news of Trump's inevitable death. I wonder if Trump got a prognosis recently and this is just a type of staw poll taken about how ready and willing the GOP would accept a replacement name on the ticket.
I guess you missed it when the story was broken that apparently Nancy Reagan used to give epic jobbers.
Fun fact on kbin.social: you can add mods without their consent or notification.
Not ethical to do so, but you can do what you've described in your question.
But no school district in Texas who stupidly thinks that chaplains should work in public schools would knowingly hire Satanists when there are probably many Christian denomination chaplains available.
Different story if the only applicant is a Satanist, but the district just declares the search as failed without interviewing the Satanist. Then it's a matter of religious discrimination in the hiring process for that one individual.
I can't think of any situation in which the actual chaplain at any given school could challenge this law to the point it starts moving through the courts.
To get into the court system, some parents are going to have to sue. I'm predicting a Jewish family, Muslim family, or Bahai family raising suit after the WASP chaplain starts evangelizing to the non-believers.
Of course he said that because if Trump is disqualified because of J6, then so would also half the GOP's varsity team from Congress. I think if all of Trump's in-government co-conspirators (just to name a few, but not an exhaustive list: Meadows, Scott, Hawley, Boebert, Gaetz, Greene, etc.) were expelled and never allowed to return to government, I'm pretty sure at least half those seats would go to middle of the road Democrats (I mean at least Boebert's seat, minimum) and the GOP would lose their razor thin margin in the Senate.
I think this is one of the many major reasons Pence keeps towing this line for Trump.
Absolute lack of self awareness. Like, what does it mean if the criticism is coming from both the left and now the right about how blind the loyalty is to this orange fascist? They're desperate to link DeSantis and Hillary, but don't you think DeSantis also stands to benefit from conservatives' blind loyalty. When even he is trying to be the wake up call, and they reject it... Good God.
America. Where others' enjoyment of looking at your pregnant body is more important than what you can do with your own body.
I am glad I left Texas when I did. The disgust I have for this entire ilk of people would have me choking on my bile 24 hours a day. My stomach is turning thinking that some people make a living or heaven forbid are prospering off augmenting the suffering of hundreds of thousands.
I appreciate that ringing endorsement, but I feel like it's a losing proposition. So perhaps this is the insight I can share: this maybe speaking only about this one instance (kbin.social), but users can technically submit content from outside the magazine, or from never even having visited the magazine for a first time, so I'm feeling hard-pressed to hold content submitters accountable to the magazine's rules or side bar.
And for federated users, I think it gets even more tricky because the sidebar may not fully load up (maybe they see the description but none of the rules or community expectations) if they federated prior to those being published; and not at all if they federated or created accounts after the pinned post was published.
I've stepped back significantly from policing submission rules because of this, but I'm beside myself with the quandary of how do you grow a community? > You create a place for healthy discourse by adding structure. > You create structure through moderation and community guidelines/rules. > Rules are de facto unenforceable because of federation. > How do you grow a community then?
I would be interested!
I saw an ADHD influencer recommend wearing ear plugs in public to block out environmental noise to keep conversation directed at you still audible.
I get distracted in public when my ears pick up conversation around me - especially people who are fighting or gossiping and I find it very entertaining compared to the discussion I'm in - so this is something I'd like to try the next time I have a dinner out at a busy restaurant with others.
Editing to add: I just listened to about a minute of the femtanyl song you linked and I realized that I also get in the zone productive with some types of music in which I can't understand the lyrics. I listen to a Pandora station built around Sigur Ros because I can't understand the language lol
