Going bankrupt due to medical bills.

It took me awhile to like Katy Perry's older stuff. This coming from a guy who likes Indie/Punk/New Wave. I haven't listened to her newer stuff.

Oh and same with Billie Eilish.

That's absolutely true, especially for a paper like the LA Times. I am dubious that there is any appreciable effect when it comes to random blogs and so forth.

In California, it doesn't matter because the results are already known. In other states the calculus is a bit different.

Voting for a minor party in terms of the effect on the outcome is approximately equivalent to not voting.

first past the post voting is a broken system and that main party candidates should make more effort to fix this glaring hole in the voting system.

The Democratic Party would rather lose to the Republican Party than change the rules to allow for a multi-party system.

That aside, the major parties don't want to reform the system they have because it's worked very well for them. Our parties are incredibly old by world standards. The Democrats have been around since the 18th century, and the Republicans have been around since the 1850s.

There was a guy who was in tech support who talked to a customer about who was hot or not in the company. It was actually the customer who started the conversation, but the rep ran with it and used all kinds of unprofessional and disparaging language when describing his female co-workers.

That call happened to have a supervisor listening in, so he was fired immediately after he got off the call. The thing is found out who called in, and the women on the team had to assist him when he called for support.

The Supreme Court did pretty much read out that 3rd section.

I got big time Ferengi vibes from that comment.

It's porn if the state wants to harass you for something.

I think this is not quite correct. You're absolutely right that 6 weeks is basically the same thing as a full ban, but it's based on last period rather than from conception. Which is even worse. They assume that women conceived the day after their period.

A woman could become pregnant late in her menstrual cycle, but the 6 weeks counts from the previous period. So she could really be only a few weeks from conception but closer to 5-6 weeks based on the ban math.

Until people are donating enough money to make maintaining an open source browser doable, this will continue to happen.
