Correction: “ABAWD” is “Able-Bodied Adult without Dependents”, not “Without Disabilities”. But that’s tangential to the larger issue regarding the “Able-Bodied” part of that, anyway - in order to be considered “disabled” for SNAP purposes, here are the criteria:

Uh, the US requires vaccinations as part of the immigration process. And asylum seekers can be quarantied. So we already do curtail the “right” of immigrants to enter the country without vaccinations, leaving only those who are here without documentation in the class of those possibly unvaccinated. And they’re not the…

Hoo-ray!

Don’t forget that they just love “Dr.” Alveda King, who uses the fact that she was MLK’s niece to repeatedly push not only that narrative but also that MLK himself was anti-abortion...and so was Rosa “literally on the board of Planned Parenthood” Parks.

Pretty sure what JDG was saying (and do understand I’m not stumping for Sanders, merely clarifying a point) is that marginalized people are the darlings of the party only when they can use them as shields or battering rams against candidates like Sanders. See also: excoriating Sanders for endorsing “anti-choice…

You might want to include in this article that this only applies to Individual accounts - Family subscribers like me will get a “this code cannot be redeemed” error. That fact isn’t even given its own question in the FAQ, instead relegated to the second half of Question 9:

Anyone who’s going to try to convince me that the party should keep out the less famous candidates, that they should raise the amount of donors or the polling numbers or whatever to come in, and that us having tons of choices is a bad thing, didn’t learn any fucking lessons from 2016.

During the episode, Ingraham and Nathanson discussed the “attack on masculinity” and some of the apparent hoaxes behind it. “The hoax that somehow sexes are all the same or capable of being bed into one continuum, that masculinity itself is toxic, terrible and poisonous, all of those things, and in fact has to be…

They were members of a gang which was formed in prison, not inmates at the time of the kidnapping and murder.

To the fuckstick I dismissed: The actual quoted parts make it really clear that the NRA is against even the slightest expansion of the law to protect victims of abuse from their abusers, and to remove abusers’/stalkers’ ability to legally purchase and own firearms. The statement literally says “It is a shame that some…

NRA spokeswoman Jennifer Baker said the group objects because it believes the legislation could lead to firearm confiscations over misdemeanor domestic violence or stalking convictions.

The man was truly a Trump-level liar.

It probably was, but this was before the lawsuits laying that out, back when Josh McKoon was trying to push Georgia’s own RFRA (so 2015). Not only did he block people calling him out on blatant lies, he would have comments that did so deleted from his Facebook page. That’s where it got into some even more clear 1A…

Given the way the DMCA is handled in the US, I worry that it’s also going to wind up putting the final burden on the user to prove that their use is non-infringing rather than leaving the burden on the IP holder to prove infringement. Just look at the number of YouTube videos that would be declared clear cases of…

I really want this to succeed just for the potential knock-on effects. Back when I was more actively in-your-face with government officials, I would get blocked for pointing out factual problems with their Tweets/FB posts, even in the most civil terms. I’d love to see more government officials at all levels told they…

I’m gonna make a guess that part of it has to do with the tax having to do with the value of the good and not the dose, so if the pricing isn’t linear by dosage it can wind up with higher-dose single products being cheaper than multiple lower-dose products that add up to the same total dosage.

And people somehow seem to think that “this is a very high dose, eat no more than one square and wait until you feel it hit” means “eat all of it at once and you’ll just have a nice couchlock”. I can’t tell you how many stories I’ve heard from the stoners around me of people who just would not listen and thought that…

Seriously this. I’ve seen a number of thinkpieces that start off saying “no one is saying that criticism of Israel is inherently anti-Semitic”, then start listing off the criticisms they say are, ending up with marking every substantive criticism as inherently anti-Semitic. Some of them have managed to mark Jewish…

ALSO not a legal scholar, but it seems like this particular challenge would be presented as a new question based on the removal of the individual mandate, creating a new theory of how the law functions and hence a new challenge. Sort of like how Roe stands, but conservatives do everything they can to challenge it,…

Trolling, which I’m pretty sure is just MAGA 101 right now.
