If full time Walmart employees need government assistance programs to afford food and pay their rent, is it not Walmart who is leaning on government assistance?
The source for the claim of booksales in the original article are the same sources who can’t be trusted in mine, so it’s a fair bet that influence peddling at the very least played a part. NYT wheels and deals off popular people who are authors, always has.
I’ve told users to junk everything to our proofpoint vendor, it’s not worth getting struck with a clever unsubscribe link. I think it would be a good cybersecurity test email to see how many people click it, I’d wager it’s more effective than some of the piss poor phishing attempts we get, and we’re pretty heavily targeted.
Gmail has an auto unsub feature, as do a lot of providers now. It effectively does the unsub for you if it complies to standards and then blocks the email and reports it to can-spam if it continues.
It’s a pretty commonly utilized tactic that’s especially employed by grifters who want to lend credence to the grift and political operatives who want to… lend credence to their grift. Occasionally though by people who want to gain notoriety in a field they’re new in, keep up a streak of success if they’re not sure about the book’s quality, or do a book tour and have something to sell the talkshows. In all cases it’s employed by people with more money than talent.

I don’t think you read your own article. Joe was already picked and he was referring to the runoffs. The actual situation was that Trump was promising the checks and then when he lost the Republicans blocked the funds for it as punishment for not electing him again. Biden supporting them and needed a majority to overcome the block. The first part of the checks was released under Trump still in December, but no more disbursement was being allowed by congress.
Your suposition is that the power of the purse still applies here. Trump has operated the executive as a collective slush fund, many times using horrible arguments that fail in court and then proceeding anyways. Also he’s allocated money from military coup projects like Venezuala to funds not under congressional control illegally.
Bernies plan is to first expand Medicare to all ages. Going off Trump’s logic this would be done by directing CMS by executive order to adjust the rates, the treasury department to allocate the necessary trust fund expenditures, the IRS to apply the necessary taxes, and the justice department to aggressively target every single possible violation in the private health insurance industry. Bernie’s actual plan is to use the bully pulpit as intended to pressure congress to act in accordance with those changes ahead of time, completely different. That’s because Trump moves to erode government into the pockets of the rich and Bernie seeks to build it stronger to benefit everyone. Executive overreach expansion has only been applied to benefit the rich effectively where everywhere else it had failed.
Paying money doesn’t mean you get to harass other students who also paid money… Maybe that’s your first lesson.
Usually typos are the result of multiple people having their own template form that only gets sent to their initializing accounts. It’s not an unforgivable one though if it gets the point across (it does). They probably don’t get many replies on that one since not agreeing to T9 is reason for removal from most roles including publicly funded college students.
I agree completely on this for anxiety. It’s helpful to keep this and similar perspectives: It’s not that I’m bad for not explaining it properly in the way that a hostile employer is satisfied with, instead it’s a hostile employer that views anxiety as a benefit to their power over you and is refusing to level with you or admit they could also be wrong. The lack of recourse or proof* is not you failing to earn it, it’s their failure to afford you what is common decency. You didn’t make a mistake, you weren’t nefarious, so if they won’t see that then it’s entirely a them issue.
Perspective is extremely important with mental traps.
Edit: typo
I’ve found that “sticking up for myself” is a less motivating reasoning than, “Stick it to the assholes that probably do this shit to others too.” I can be passionate about helping victims very easily and help myself at the same time. The anxiety is predominantly caused by feeling wronged and like you’re not worth the solution. It’s extremely similar to depression, just with less perceived control. Similarly your self esteem is lowered and it can feed into the circle and spiral downward. If you position the actions against it as someone else’s benefit then there is no self esteem required and the circle is broken… at least for me, someone with chronic depression and anxiety later in life.
Ask them how they got it wrong. Request a policy change that would address it. If it’s public, foia their process on your ticket and resolution.
To be clear, I don’t mean be a Karen, but more just to insist that it’s a problem worth solving and that the solution should be making it impossible in the future, as broadly as possible.
As an example my car came back from an alignment/inspection and they only finger tightened all 20 lugnuts when they returned it. I called and refused to identify the employee or car, but requested a policy change to make that absolutely impossible to happen again. The manager was distraught and very serious, so I didn’t want to ruin someone’s life on something they could definitely learn to do better on. At the same time, someone else’s life could be ruined. For my own solution I’d just check it before driving every time work is done in the future but that doesn’t really help anyone else.
This is the nature of a defederated website. There are multiple hosts who all act independently, but have decided to source from each other. Upvotes come in from instances you aren’t on who refuse deletions or process them on a delay.
This means that Lemmy is very difficult to pull information back from, if it’s even possible at all. There are no doubt instances that are almost solely functioning as archives as well that may not even make themselves known except through requests to maybe only one ither instance. It’s great for anticensorship, but not great if you say something goofy you didn’t mean and are now getting downvotes from the instances that don’t believe in edits or whatever it may be.
Deletions not be honored is also pretty common generally, because there are accounts who create posts and then delete their accounts. On reddit it’s throwaway accounts, but on lemmy.world at least it destroys the posts permanently and then all of the engagement is locked under the nonexistent post which will be purged.
I think the best balance is instances allow deletions by admins/mods/the user, but do not allow deletions for account purging by the user. I don’t know how many flags there are in the data transmissions between instances to know the origin of the action or what button the user clicked.
They’re pretty clean so long as it’s indoors and ideally not in a bathroom. There’s a massive difference of a new paper towel and a reused towel. I wear contacts and it doesn’t take much to notice residue on my hands/eyelid area.
The lawsuits filed by her and her ex husband would teach you a lot, actually, about medical emergencies that every new parent should be aware of as a possibility.
Many churches and especially political action committees based on Christianity function as death cults. I’d say they definitionally don’t care at all about earth or the people on it. Not wanting people to go to hell stands in juxtaposition to their desire to themselves be raptured.
It also begs the question of why we allow people who yearn for the end times to be the preferred leaders of what used to be the most powerful nation, but a little out of scope for a dumb church sign.
You also could also attempt different patterns if you feel it’s the tip causing localized heating. On a flat print spiral is going to make the center hotter than the outside. Diagonal sweeps are going to do the opposite. If it’s on the side then sweeps w/ length for cold, against for hot.
Edit: since you’re using a .2 nozzle I would hazard a guess that you’re experiencing cold issues rather than excessive heat. Slowing down would make a big difference or switching to a more complicated pattern that spends more time in each area. Seems like you’ve got the right approach
It looks like the effects of heat warping if it’s all confined to the middle. First step is to allow the bed to heat up longer imo. The center might holding heat better or worse than the rest and needs longer to equalize. Is your printer enclosed? If so that should solve it. If it’s not then you may have excessive airflow across the bed.
They’re mostly German. Not sure whether to interpret that as zionist = nazis and we’ve got a nazism problem, zionist =/= nazi and we’ve got a liberalism problem, both, or the scratch a liberal and a nazi bleeds thing is real in more cases than I thought.
Schools < city < state < nation < a foreign nation.
Just as our forefathers intended. /s
This nation needs re-education camps.
Uh, no. Generics are fine though. It’s no longer difficult to make these for cheap
“Hitler condemns pograms.”
They had a failed attempt to pressure congress which generates 600 dollar checks. Then 1400 was later added to that to “complete” the promise, so while 2600 is better than 2000, it wasn’t scummy except to the extent that the Republicans in congress immediately turned on the American people once it was politically advantageous not to deliver.
100% isn’t my standard, but I think saying “elect my guys and get money” when the intention is to actually do it when he has power to (and he did) rather than Trump saying it when he absolutely can do it right now with full control of all branches of government. In other words, “do this so we want to help you.” Vs “do this so we can help you” very different.
