Plus, Pennsylvania is a nice big purple state to get a little home-state bias from.

Yeah, he’s widely known outside of California, but largely because he’s a massive punching bag for conservatives. Not a good pick for a presidential race.
Piece of glass shrapnel hit his ear.
And who realistically is a better choice at this point? I can’t think of a single other Democrat with the recognition to pull a presidential campaign together in 3 months.
People love this talking point, as if Hillary didn’t also win the popular and electoral votes in that primary. She still would’ve had the nomination of there were no super delegates.
I wanted 8 years of Bernie too, but let’s chill with the conspiracy theories.
The 250th anniversary of the signing of US declaration of independence will be in 2026.
The state is also requiring a four-paragraph “context statement” about how the commandments “were a prominent part of American public education for almost three centuries”.
Generous rounding, there.
So like, the ad didn’t even say anything about the genocide in Palestine? It just starred a half-Palestinian model?
The music accompanying the Night King scene is absolutely top-tier. Shame the storytelling failed to live up to it.
No idea on numbers, but considering IRL cowboys were poor folks doing hard work nobody else wanted to do…probably quite a few black men 0-3 generations removed from slavery.
End of the party of Trump, maybe. They’d still probably invoke his name at every opportunity.
End of the party of fascism and nihilistic corruption? No way, he’s a figurehead there.
I mean, few things in life can be graded objectively so that’s not really the best standard to hold education to. There’s a lot of value in learning and practicing the skill of taking in information and then rearranging it into your own words, creating and supporting arguments from the knowledge you’ve gained.
But the subjectivity of it DOES mean that occasionally teachers will need to set aside their egos. Those who legitimately want to educate the next generation usually can do that, but some just enjoy having power over children and absolutely will not units forced to do so (and doing so will just create a new grudge against that student).
I once got a C- on an essay, but for extra credit we could submit that paper to a state essay contest. I was a state finalist in that contest, with my only revision from the class-submitted version being spell checking Britan->Britain.
Fuck you, Mrs Wickham.
Wait until you see the Nepalese flag. It’s not even a rectangle!
(It’s also the only flag in the world to be mathematically defined by its country’s constitution)
That could realistically be around 1/3 yearly profit in a reasonable company (18% operating margin is common). No idea whether Twitter is currently profitable (it wasn’t when he bought it).
Blue MAGA
It’s not even 8am and I’ve already read the dumbest shit I’ll see all day
At this point, I think the best thing would be for Biden to run, get re-elected, and then die early in his term to make Kamala Harris the President. I’m not super thrilled about her but I think she’s better than just about any other option we’ve got at the moment.
I just don’t trust this fucking electorate to vote for a Black, Indian, Woman for president.
I mean, that just kinda proves the point further?
Anybody that’s gonna vote for Trump is gonna vote for him regardless of who his VP is. The VP is only TeChNiCaLlY an elected office, because 99.99% of people are voting for the president and not the VP.
This headline uses “millionaires” to mean “people with over a million dollars in annual income” rather than “people with over a million dollars in net worth”
That’s not your run of the mill “successful career with a healthy 401k” millionaire, that’s at least ten-millionaires, mostly hundred-millionaires, and possibly some billionaires by net worth.
There’s kind of alot going on, but the shortest answer is “the electrostatic force between the positive nucleus and negative electron creates orbits in the same way that gravity allows a moon to orbit a planet”. The electron is moving fast enough that it just “misses” the nucleus. At least, from a classical lens.
It gets more complicated when you introduce orbital angular momentum and start considering the magnetic effects of moving charges, and that’s what leads to the funky non-spherical orbital shapes.
