Yeah, I’ve known people who have had skin grafts because of those fuckers. Fuck those spiders.

Fuck this dude and all, but if you get bitten by one of those, you best jam to the hospital.

Isn’t that the NBC affiliate that’s partnered with a yacht rock radio station?

Agreed. That said, it’s worth noting that a lot of people who are homeless were residents of the area before they became unhoused. It’s often a myth that a city’s homeless population primarily consists of people looking for a more lenient city.

Take a place like California’s east bay. 80 percent of those homeless people were from the area before they became homeless.

Even with the war, he would get a pass from the majority of the public for going to his kids wedding.

Although, now that he said he was going to skip, and he referred to his first born son as “someone he’s known for a long time,” he’s going to get roasted either way.

The no-win situation was caused by his inability to show affection to anyone other than himself.

Alcohol is basically the only recreational drug active-duty military personal are allowed to have after hours. Weed, Kava, etc are basically all on the no-no list.

No idea, but he already said he’d do it.

My guess is that he’ll try to keep appealing as far as he can because the court costs are trivial for him, and in the rare chance he can kneecap Altman, he benefits.

Also, he gets to continue to pester Altman like a petty asshole, and that probably brings him joy.

Looks like they’re also getting kneecapped by people reading AI summaries in Google, as opposed to clicking a link to an article.

The bots are just regurgitating the journalism without compensating the journalists.

Dark times for journalism.

So now I assume he appeals so he continue this grumpy billionaire feud?

“White house to pander to Christian voters because they’re scared about the midterms”

I’m also in this camp. That said, I’ve learned that everyone studies differently, and some people learn by synthesizing, and others do better when they have something structured from the jump.

I often run to weird little study teams where one person studies by taking everyone’s notes and creating sets in something like quizlet, and someone else studies by using the flashcards / tests that get spit out.

As someone who works in ed tech these days, I’m kind of down for them as a study tool. For example, synthesizing notes and turning them into flashcards, practice tests, etc. I find that stuff to be suuuper handy if I’m trying to learn something.

But for cheating, yah, fuck that noise. A lot of classes are moving back to pencil and paper because of this, and I totally support that.

They are not required to create some sort of inpatient trans kid gulag.

The “clinic” requirement state that doctor’s need to help kids who are getting off of hormone blockers - which any good hospital would do anyway for anyone doing a big medication switch. That’s standard care.

They also apparently are required to pay to reverse surgical procedures if someone asks. Which would be never or rarely, because doctors / parents almost always delay puberty until a someone if old enough to decide about surgery.

The clinic is dumb bullshit that won’t be a real thing. The real impact is the 10 million fine, firing five physicians who previously provided care, and ceasing performing puberty blockers. That’s the shit that’s really fucked up.

Yeah, all the X links are the fucking worst. No fucking thanks.

They also have a new URL. I assume this is because the old one still had SEO juice that bots wanted to slurp up.

1% of the US identified as trans and 1% of people who transition want to go back.

This is going to be a “clinic” for a 1-3 kids who decided to stop puberty blockers. And the free clinic will basically be “we’ll wave the $30 copay on a call with a doctor or therapist.”

These politicians love to fixate on ragebate issues that don’t actually change the lives of their constituents for the better.
