I don’t disagree that their priorities are wrong, but this is not an aberration, this is the norm (and that norm should change)

What? You didn’t get to rule on a case solely based on your fucking betting pool.
This is exactly how injunctions work. It’s a combination of “how likely is the party asking for the injunction to win” and “how much damage will be done if the injunction is not granted”. It’s the same logic used to block abortion laws from going into effect and things like Trump’s gag order being enforced, while those actual cases work their way through the courts.
Greater Hartford checking in. This really seems more like a “people didn’t know how to do their job correctly” situation but when your job is running a fucking election, you better know how to do it right.
Also this was for a primary that (convicted felon) Joe Ganim won by 251 votes? Seriously, throw the book at them.
This sort of power-trip bullshit pisses me off so much. Kid’s “horsing around” in the hallway and it’s your job to keep the hallways calm? Then tell them to stop. Is it a pattern of behavior and they don’t listen? Assign them an official punishment with the power you’ve been given: detention of some kind (probably a lunch detention).
Trying to make them do pushups? Fuck off, this is school not the fucking army.
The station is owned by FOX Television Stations, not Sinclair. If you want to tell someone to fuck off, tell it to Rupert Murdoch, who ultimately is the owner of the FOX corp.
Seriously, blindly assuming “this must be bad because it sounds like something I dont like” and parroting an irrelevant"Fuck X" is the same thing as people saying “Dominion stole the election” when Dominion machines weren’t even in use in their county.
It’s literally the same breakup that happened with movie studios owning theaters in 1948. It’s emblematic of the state of antitrust in the past decades that we’ve let another industry get away with the exact same issue thing.

Directly from the summary paragraph of the Wikipedia article you linked:
The story was widely believed for centuries, but most modern scholars regard it as fictional.
When I was practicing jujitsu, our instructors were pretty unanimous that they would rather be robbed by someone with a gun than with a knife. Not that your odds are great against any weapons, but a gun only has one dangerous bit. The first time I was learning to disarm someone armed with a knife I was told “If you fight someone with a knife, you’re going to get cut, no question.”
It’s not just a black player, it’s the black player. Jackie Robinson was the first black baseball player in major league baseball.
The last time there was a major schism the nations of the day were explicitly aligned with one side of the other of the schism and the states attempted to crush the other side of the schism by force. Part of the separation of church and state in modern nations is meant to prevent church issues from becoming state issues (see the recent mainstream schism in the Methodist chuch which was completely peaceful and over similar issues).
There’s a very wide range of options between “doing nothing” and “intentionally bombing civilians”
Unless the statue was erected by George Wallace, that caption is irrelevant. Put a caption of Lee’s written words:
There are few, I believe, in this enlightened age, who will not acknowledge that slavery as an institution is a moral and political evil. It is idle to expatiate on its disadvantages. I think it is a greater evil to the white than to the colored race. While my feelings are strongly enlisted in behalf of the latter, my sympathies are more deeply engaged for the former. The blacks are immeasurably better off here than in Africa, morally, physically, and socially. The painful discipline they are undergoing is necessary for their further instruction as a race, and will prepare them, I hope, for better things. How long their servitude may be necessary is known and ordered by a merciful Providence.
This passage is commonly cut off after the full sentence before you get the full context in which Lee actually cares about how bad slavery is for white people and how slavery was good for the enslaved.
Not a resident of either but it’s worth mentioning that this is NYC not NY state and California probably has suburban and rural areas that are much, much cheaper cost of living than NYC.
The Senate isn’t the chamber holding up a budget bill…
I mean, assuming the writers agreed to this deal, then technically the deal is the final deal, and presumably it’s the best offer since the writers agreed to it.
Why not just not use the switch function? You can even “disable” the switch in Home Assistant so you can’t accidentally turn it off, and most of these sorts of switches have a setting for default (on power restoration after power loss) of on or off.
