  • He's most likely referring to Juror #2 who, iirc, is a man who follows Trump on Truth Social and also watches Fox 'News'.

    At this point, I would love again like to publicly apologize to Juror #2 for the aspersions I cast on his character during the trial. I'm sorry, dude; you looked at the evidence and went where it led you.

  • Little typically works at Will Rogers Beach, long considered a safe space among LGBTQ+ beach goers. The beach is so popular with queer residents and visitors that it earned the nickname "Ginger Rogers Beach.

    Why doesn't he just ask to be stationed at a different beach? He's offended by a flag, but not a bunch of men and women making everyday PDAs right in front of him?

  • When the agency originally proposed tougher emissions limits, Denka had a longer timeframe to comply. But the EPA sued the company last year, finding the facility posed an “imminent and substantial endangerment” to the nearby community. [...] The company wants the EPA’s 90-day deadline put on hold and says the agency won’t consider lengthening that timeline until Denka sets out an emissions reduction plan, according to the filing.“ [...] (Denka) will need at least two years to plan, develop, test and install the controls required by the rule,” the company said in a court filing.

    The EPA has been working on this rule since Biden took office. You knew it was coming, you just hoped there would be a change of administration before you had to comply with the ruling (so you wouldn't have to comply at all, which is also what you're hoping for with your current delay tactics). Sucks to be you - your lack of planning does not constitute my emergency, etc ....

  • Jam is mashed, preserves have chunks of fruit. With some fruits it's hard to leave large china during processing (like raspberries, which break easily when properly ripe), at which point raspberry preserves might have less sugar then raspberry jam.

  • One thing people never count on is all the stuff your taxes pay for, that you end up paying for in other ways. Things like trash collection, sewer, water, library services, snow plows, etc. You move away and either you pay yourself or you do without.

  • I can see where that's gonna be hard. You might try local harvest.org , though that's less helpful than it used to be - I think something happened during the pandemic and they stopped double-checking the listings were still good each year, but it's the last site I had for finding good CSAs.

  • It's possible Trump will win again. And even if he doesn't, he's not the only threat. There's so the emboldened MAGAts, a resurgent white nationalist / neo-Nazi / christofascist movement being weaponized, an unapologetically corrupt Supreme Court, a Republican party that's too scared of their own voters to do their job, a heavily militarized and intolerant police force, and plans to forcibly re-make the country with the next Republican president.

    Investors will say “OK Boomer” to aging Reddit

    [...] a dearth of profit this late into its existence portends the lack of a real business model, suggesting it’s still not ready for public company life.

    Judge says Rudy Giuliani must pay $148 million judgment immediately

    Judge Beryl A. Howell wrote that there is a strong danger Giuliani is likely to hide his assets from plaintiffs Ruby Freeman and Wandrea ArShaye “Shaye” Moss and is unlikely to succeed in having last week’s the jury verdict overturned or cut down on appeal.

    A man carrying many baskets on his head, Covent Garden, London, 1926-1927.

    25 baskets, to be precise, but I used the original caption.

    The UAW's contracts deliberately expire April 30, 2028, so that they can leverage a possible UAW strike with any other strikes occurring on International Workers Day.

    "We invite unions around the country to align your contract expirations with our own, so that together we can begin to flex our collective muscle [...]. It's important not only that we strike, but that we strike together."

    Today, the National Institutes of Health launched and is opening enrollment for phase 2 clinical trials that will evaluate at least four potential treatments for long COVID, with additional clinical trials to test at least seven more treatments expected in the coming months. Treatments will include drugs, biologics, medical devices and other therapies. The trials are designed to evaluate multiple treatments simultaneously to identify more swiftly those that are effective.

    I'm using kbin with KDE on a desktop browser. Is there a way to hide posts?

    Ex-redditor here, still adjusting to kbin, sorry if I'm asking in the wrong place.

    Sometimes I run across a post that I just don't want to see again. It's not offensive or inappropriate stuff, so I don't want to block the user or the magazine. It's just sporadic content that makes me angry or depressed and I'd rather not see in my feed when I pop back in a few hours later.

    Is there a way in either vanilla kbin or in KDE, to block a post from my feed? Like today, I've popped in maybe four times today, and each time there's some article with a large outraged screaming Trump picture on it and I just don't want to see it. I want a quiet weekend where I can occasionally check in on the news without raising my anger and blood pressure every time I accidentally run across that particular article again.

    Edit: just wanted to thank you all for the help - I appreciate it!
