Most scrabble dictionaries removed it a few years back, just because the definition that made it Scrabble-legal in the past was the verb form, meaning โ€œto steal or swindleโ€. Understandable that they removed that along with other slurs

And Fahrenheit has the right scale units, too! 1F difference is ~just about the smallest difference a person can distinguish between (source: me noticing when my roommate sets it to 71 instead of 72), it's very convenient for that.

The only way is to show the Fulton et al radius valley plot instead. There are no other options

People are reading this way wrong. Schumer detached DHS from the other five bills in return for a two week CR on the DHS bill. Now Democrats can make demands on DHS spending without having to shut down agencies covered in the other five bills. They have way more leverage to get real concessions.

If thereโ€™s no additional deal in two weeks, ICE loses their normal funding. They still have funding through the OBBB, but all the funding that is at stake in this shutdown would disappear

โ€œLetโ€™s fund everything EXCEPT ICE for the next year, and then we can โ€˜debate ICE fundingโ€™ (read: not fund ICE) while people get the healthcare and food stamps the rest of the government providesโ€

Correct, yeah -- political parties in the US aren't actually organized institutions in any way outside of fundraising, unlike parties in Canada or Europe

Also, Jon Tester did win. Like I know he lost in 2024 but he did win three straight terms in Montana

221-205, House passes the โ€œmotion to dischargeโ€ the Jeffries 3-year ACA funding extension.

NINE (!) Republicans join unanimous Democrats in voting to advance it.

This tees up a final House vote tomorrow; itโ€™s poised to sail through.
