I was mostly poking fun at how absurd Crenshaw is. Dude is amongst the most right wing of the entire house. He had the audacity to criticize the president a few times and lost his seat for it but he’s not flipping. He’s a true believer.

Not sure I’d call that bigotry. Sexist and predatory certainly.

I’d be terrified of having to win a contested primary and a general I walked around with a Nazi tattoo on my chest for a decade and my campaign finance people quit, and I’d retweeted and talked positively about a famous anti-Semite.

I'm looking to hear some specific examples of how disabled Minnesotans have been harmed by federal Medicaid pause for reporting I'm doing at @motherjones.com . Please reach out to jmetraux@motherjones.com with any leads.

Divinity Original Sin 2 made me a more chaotic D&D player especially in regards to my environment. Electrifying water, steam clouds, asking what buildings are made out of before using my flaming sphere.

Big D&D nerd here and yet to play it. Finally getting a computer CAPABLE of playing it and am very excited.

BTW if you like the game, you should check out Divinity Original Sin 2 by the same studio. It's phenomenal.

I mean that's not "regime change" nor relevant to Iran.

Yeah, I went to an ACE after and found a singular kit. But don't worry the ACE has whole section of Pokemon cards and toys and stuff now where there used to be tools. Bad sign... I bought a bunch of other things I needed but ended up having to get anchoring kits online.

I went into a Home Depot and asked about furniture anchoring kits that the website said they had in stock but I couldn't find in the aisle and the ~18 year old kid without even looking, suggested I just buy it online.

I get it, patent publications have two columns on each page, and only every 5th line is numbered…not starting with 1. And the numbers are between the columns so…so depending on the ocr it’s going to mess up where the quote is but holy hell this has been an illuminating process. Coding is hard af.

I’m experimenting with Claude for the first time (trying to build a patent publication citation tool) and am relieved when it locks me out for 5 hours because holy shit is it frustrating to hear I’m right when I don’t know shit about shit and the tool doesn’t fucking work after the change.

You people are insane. The U.S. government did it because it wanted to do it, not because Israel manipulated us to do it.
You are absolutely delusional and normalizing terrible views that could lead to terrible things.

Followed and I’d love to talk through it with you. Grandparents were born and raised in Canada, at least one great grandpa was naturalized.

Doesn’t matter who you have defending when your 6’8 311 pound TE can actually get downfield.

Remember when Sean McDermott used the 9/11 hijackers as an example of people coming together as a team defying all the odds?

That was less bad than this letter.
