Jared Cram@jscram3254.bsky.social · yesterdayYeah, the latest study is not bearing out the snake oil actually working. It looks like more code is generated, but that code is also worse and needs more reviews and repairs.
If and when Dems are able to take back power, I cannot tell you how much any question about the debt or deficit needs to be met with loud mockery and extreme derision. Just an aggressive, ‘Oh NOW you care about the debt? GTFOH.’ Over and over and over again.

The woman, who was wearing a “release the Epstein files” T-shirt, was attacked “by at least three men, one of whom appeared to throw a punch at her head, as well as pulling her hair. Police then arrived, but ignored the violent attacker and whisked the woman out of the arena.”

Another one of Trump's worshipers whose believe is harm women and little girls for any reason in any way. Abuse the little one and older ones, beat them rape them etc... Trump leads the party from hell. Remember this attacker!!!

look this is all horrifying and awful, but let’s not pretend like there isn’t a literal decade of precedent here. There were supercuts of this *exact same thing* happening in 2016!
A Trump supporter punched a protester wearing a “Release the Epstein Files” shirt in the face at Trump’s rally in Youngstown, OH. According to Mediaite, police removed the protester while the attacker stayed and “high-fived other attendees”. This is disgraceful and sums up the entire MAGA movement.
At last night’s Trump rally, the crowd (and possibly also law enforcement) beat a female protester while Trump called her a “fat guy.”
Notice that law enforcement aren't removing the guy who punched her. Also, last time I checked, free speech is allowed at public events, even if it's unpopular with the crowd.

Rollercoasters built over the past two decades were not built for safety. They were built more and more extreme. Some of the motion of them duplicates being in a rollover accident. You’ll find out in your later years what that means.
I don't have the foggiest idea why I've never enjoyed rollercoaster rides. Honestly, just never trusted their designs or maintenance. My trust in metal fatigue is zero. My trust in people doing their maintenance properly, less than zero. youtu.be/xKLjGUwJQJU

This is appalling. The denial of critical medical care while in custody is inhumane and torturous. And being trapped in solitary confinement at MDC - infamous for its horrific conditions - without adequate food or water is nothing short of traumatic. We demand Oscar Belgal be freed, now.
