Lol that’s a totally understandable and relatable flub. It’s one of those things that’s only relevant when you already know it’s there and what it means. Otherwise there’s no reason for your brain to think twice about it, so you subconsciously file it away with the most common meaning for NA. And every time you see it in passing you inadvertently reinforce that meaning. I find myself doing that shit all that time. The eureka moment sure is fun though! Our brains are wild.

I agree, but it’s all about process. The only thing that ensures our rights are respected is the process that’s used every step of the way. Issuing this order was a critical step in the process. Without the contempt order as a foundation, there could be no consequences for the administration ignoring the order. I completely share your frustration, but these things matter as they build up to what should inevitably be real consequences for the fascists. The judge knows we’re all watching, so he’s gotta be sure to get it right.

That said, I’m not confident there will actually be any meaningful consequences, but there definitely wouldn’t be any without this order.

Wow, that’s really impressive. I don’t really know why, but I want this.

Though I initially thought it was handheld, which would make their claim to be able to print on nearly any surface a little more believable. Still seems like incredible tech.

President Donald Trump's Education Department restored access to student-loan borrowers' income-driven repayment plans after the American Federation of Teachers sued the administration for taking down the online applications.

Uhhh this is news to me. Thanks for the detailed email explaining my current options… (/s obviously). I love learning about life-altering policy changes that impact me personally, from the news. Assholes.

I watched this a couple months ago and the song still randomly pops into my head every so often. Really cool show, with an exceptional intro.

You’re not paranoid, it’s a real pattern, and that pattern is racism. Some white people, in their wildest dreams, can’t imagine how a person of color might get a role instead of a white person. It’s not about skill, it’s not about creativity, it’s not about the quality of the film. It’s just blatant racism.

Remember how the little mermaid live action movie started getting shit before it was even released? That was because the lead actor was black, and peoples’ imaginations are so underdeveloped that they couldn’t see that she is legitimately an amazing talent who played the role just as well if not better than any white lady could have. Now, live action Disney remakes are stupid, so maybe that’s not the best example, but it’s all just racism.

I dunno, I thought she was pretty awesome in Everything Everywhere All At Once.

Borderlands sucked, yeah, but it wasn’t her fault imo.

One of my favorite Japanese dramas, Isekai Izakaya Nobu, based on an anime of the same name, has a plot kind of like this. Lots of fun.

don't think that FAANG companies realize how toxic their image is

Ain’t that the truth. Their behavior and the products they’ve been launching the last few years prove this to me. They’re completely out of touch with society and what consumers actually want. LLMs are another perfect example of that.

Parsing that title was painful.

Not sure if they changed the headline after this was posted, but it’s currently headlined “A mother who traveled to a residential treatment center to visit her child was found dead; her daughter and friend are now in custody” . . . so much easier to read.

As a Jew who has experienced my fair share of actual antisemitism, fuck you, DHS.

We know you’re full of shit. We know that you know that you’re full of shit. And we know that you know that we know that you’re full of shit.

Don’t use me and my people as an excuse to target immigrants. It’s transparent. We know better than most what a scapegoat looks like, you racist pieces of shit.

Ah, thanks for the context, I wasn’t aware of OP’s posting behavior.
