We won 105 years ago. Weβll fight again if necessary.
βIf particular care and attention is not paid to the Ladies we are determined to foment a Rebellion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any Laws in which we have no voice, or Representation.β - Abigail Adams, March 1776

If you put in your newscast that President Trump says he will βprobablyβnot run again, and then you donβt follow it by saying he is constitutionally barred from doing so, you are failing.

Ugh. Sell it for more?
So far, if I get flaxseed on my skin, I get bad hives but no anaphylactic reaction (like when I eat it). And itβs immediate. When Iβve accidentally eaten it, my lips and tongue flare up in the first bite. Benadryl staved off EpiPen. For now.

Iβm allergic to flaxseed. The number of times Iβve been told βFlaxseed is proven to be very healthy and good for you. You canβt be allergic to it.β And itβs an ingredient often left off the list - like in beer and cosmetics. Ask me how I know.

Listened yesterday morning & thought it was going to be a fun hate watch. Instead, we got sucked in, binging it all. No spoilers but we (non-horse people) became invested in the stories after certain horses werenβt running, cheering out loud during races. Canβt wait to hear the rest of the episodes.

How do you know they think nothing is wrong when you see them doing all the things required for life? Are acts of resistance not counted if not posted on social media? Does anxiety have to be observed to be real? Responding differently than you to whatβs wrong is still a response.

The single worst thing the Internet invented was the idea that anything digital should be free.
Everyone who does work deserves to be paid for their labor. No exceptions. You are not "sticking it" to anyone if you pirate content. You are greedy and wrong.

I would genuinely like an always-listening AI to let me say things like "I'm putting my sweatpants in the closet, the ones that Dave gave me, the maroon ones" and then three weeks later I can say "Where did I put those maroon sweatpants?" and it tells me.

Watching mtg recording. Speaker has said βnot to date myselfβ 4 times in first 7:30 while talking about the early 80s. Then says βSo, Iβm 29.β She spoke as if she lived through the 80s. Thatβs why what she was saying was barely correct and felt inauthentic. Why not just present as research/history?
