Independents are people who don’t identify as democrats or republicans.
Many independents are more progressive than mainstream dems. Some aren’t. But we’re a spectrum and it’s stupid to treat us as cohesive.
This is patently untruthful.
First, Cohen’s conviction was federal. Trumps are state.
Second. Trump is convicted of fraudulent business records. Cohen was convicted of lying to a financial institution, tax fraud, unlawful corpo contributions, and excessive campaign contributions. (Source)
Pipe dreams. It’s extremely rare for prison sentences to be imposed for white collar, non-violent e felonies like this.
Merchan isn’t going to impose a shit load of time just because people want it- that would pretty quickly get over turned by higher courts.
Most likely the best we can hope for is house arrest; the only reason we have a hope of jail time at all is that trumps behavior during and leading up to the trial (inciting his mob to threaten violence, refusal to abide gag orders.)
In some regards the house arrest might be politically the best for Trump. He can still broadcast his stupidity.
rather wish god would get canceled.
is it bad if I want one?
Edit: maybe in 1’s. So I can send them to bigot family members when they bitch about me not sending them cards on holidays.
well. it's now on the list of places I want to visit!
You remember this guy that trolled Katie Hopkins with a fake award?
I wonder if we can hire him to troll Netanyahu into going into some place that would arrest him.
Aren’t there warrants…… ?
Too bad we’re not part of the ICC….
line forms behind you?
(and now me.)
this election is going to come down to whoever loses more votes... and I don't think trump's bases is all that disloyal.
Saw this going to a friend’s house- they bagged the fire hydrants….one thought was snow; but this is the first year apparently. And snow has been a mild issue this year compared to most.
Mamma loafing around with the minions. (~~one is behind her, to the front, the other is behind and to her tail.~~)(edit: those are snacks,)
Gotta ask, what kinda candy was she making? Soft crack. Hard crack. Pot….
Even has the donuts on there for, you know, dealing with the munchies.
Double, double Toil and Trouble; Fire burn and Cauldron boil.
and the finished soup:
Okay, so I was making chicken soup from stock I had made using a (lightly,) browned carcus and neck. just before dumping the the dumplings into it, the stock's color was a nice light brown. I added about 1/4 cup of lemon juice, turned my back for 30 seconds after a stir and it turned it an almost milky-off white. Eventually it deepened to this:
It's delicious, and tastes as expected, I'm just curious as to what happened in the broth's chemistry?
Seasoned with salt (duh), a sprig of thyme, some ginger and garlic, (just a hint of ginger,) black pepper, lemon zest (which was added with the torn chicken,) and white wine deglazed the pot from browning the dark meat.
The stock was from garlic, onion, celery, carrot and maybe ginger scraps cooked with the chicken carcass..
Due to reasons... I've "adopted" a CR10s that a friend had bought. It was used, and was already well on it's way to being a janky Printer of Theseus. My hope is to get it up and running and put through it's paces before the holidays so I can give it back as a gift.
With the linear rail upgrades, I picked up the hardware and it's on it's way; which got me looking at how to do the upgrade, which I have mostly figured out; the question I'm having is, most upgrades seem to place the rails on 2020 extrusions sitting on top of the base frame- same as how the original y axis 2040's were designed.
Which raises the question- why not lower it so the 2020 rails are even with the frame, with the mgn12 rail sitting on top? Like so:
The short answer I came to is this would necessitate replacing the brackets for the y stepper motor and it's idler; but it should be possible. the easiest solution would be something like:
which raises the question: are printed parts rigid enough to hold against the tension on the belts? The motors can't handle too much tension anyhow, and the printer already has the screw-cap tensioners for x and y printed that seem to have been holding up well.
has anybody replaced the OG metal bracket on the back? does it stress and need replacing often, or is it fairly reliable (and above all, consistent,)
Lockouts save lives
Usually idiots, but sometimes we’re all idiots.
We should hand them the weapons and let them use them how they want/need to.
If Russia doesn’t like how they use them, they can end this fucked up war of aggression they started simply by leaving.
