There are probably dumber takes from less intelligent YouTubers, but if so I'm happy to remain entirely ignorant.

This is correct.

If anyone can think of an episode that's an exception to this rule, please lmk

NCIS is one of those shows that my father finds relaxing, so it's on a lot now. I'd forgotten that anytime there's a civilian male military spouse in an episode, the character is inevitably some kind of scumbag.

This is a common enough academic view that I've held it myself, within the past decade. I was wrong. The problem is that copyright mostly benefits big companies, but it also benefits small creators, and is really the only thing that makes it possible to transition to full-time creative work.

I would make an extremely strong bet that most of New York's 'entrenched bureaucracy' voted for Mamdani.

"instead of real impacts on real people" - fuck that to the point of no further possible fuckatude, gird loins, and fuck it some more. People I knew, who were dear to me, were put in camps, tortured, their families exterminated like vermin, by people wearing the emblem Platner chose to celebrate.

Trump totally take watch party.

Second (different) hypo - it cited the constitution and Lanham Act correctly, and then correctly cited two irrelevant cases.

Just tried this with a local state tax matter. It did somewhat OK at the start, right up to the point where it recommended a course of action that has a letter going to the wrong person and place, probably resulting in a jurisdictional deadline being blown.

Taking the plunge and doing something I haven’t done in years. Just bought tickets for LVO. Does this count as a vacation? Going to bring the Tau and take a ton of painting classes.

Notoriously frightened of big word. Dat me. For sure.

If you are unironically using the phrase "deontological moralism" to criticize people who think that letting a lying, abusive dude with a hastily covered nazi tattoo near the levers of power is a bad idea, you probably need physical contact with herbaceous vegetation.

The first thing I noticed in the video of 9th Circuit Judge Ryan Douglas Nelson attacking a dude and breaking his glasses is that Judge Ryan Douglas Nelson parks like an entitled asshole. The second thing is that he picks fights in parking lots which will get him killed. /1

look how they massacred my boy 😭

I'm fuckin' begging people to learn how to take a W even if it means handing it to the US

When the Soviet Union entered the war on which side?

I am Mike, I am often mad, and I was once a biologist. But there is only one Mike the Mad Biologist, and it isn't me.

mike is AI now i do not make the rules

So tread carefully, lest ye disturb the Dread Fertile Octagenarian or the Horror of the Unborn Widow.

What a month, huh?

Lawmakers move to require chaperones for ‘sensitive’ appointments in military health system www.militarytimes.com/news/pentago...

Wisdom. We need the first sale doctrine back. The only reason we lost it was a turbodumb court ruling that everyone who understands law and tech understands is turbodumb.

There was a time in my life when I was sharp enough to not do this to myself while moving furniture.

I'm pretty happy with this guy - and 9 more should be done tomorrow. I'm going to have to put the orks down once the new rules (and points) drop, though - these guys won't be what I bring to Doubles at LVO in a few months. #paintingwarhammer #warhammercommunity #minipainting #40k #Warhammer40k

Bricks & Minifigs has permanently closed its Oregon store and parted ways with franchisees Best and Johnson, blaming a "devastating social media campaign" while conceding "gross negligence" and revaluing the disputed Star Wars LEGO collection it once promoted at over $200,000. youtu.be/55FMmihiDw0

I scored 50 out of 100 ("Certifird Unc") on the Unc test, and I'm stunned. I get called "uncle" in public by full-ass adults who gave to be pushing 30.

this is how to livepost it

Dear people using Platner's PTSD to excuse his bad behavior: Fix your hearts. Kthxbye

All you innocent scientists, this is not how you go to regulatory war. This is the equivalent of not knowing where the Strait of Hormuz is when you plan a sea war in Iran.

Help! help! you're being repressed! Come see the violence inherent in the system!!

See, e.g., Book, The Battle Thereof.

This is probably the best evidence for why Patagonia made the correct decision to sue. Pattie Gonia is literally using Patagonia's past leniency against them, and the longer they delayed the more effective this would be.

Bought it after seeing her posts here. You should too

30.9k of Micah's followers could do the funniest thing right now...

There are corporations involved in...*checks notes*...Pategonia Inc. v. Entrepreneur Enterprises, Inc.? Who knew??

Two things that are simultaneously true: 1: I agree with @lexlanham.bsky.social (quoted in the article): duty to police is overblown, and in ways that are damaging to art and the public. 2: As a practitioner, I would be unable to recommend that Patagonia refrain from action here.

This. On the one hand, Pattie Gonia's lawyers would be remiss to not seek discovery on these questions. But, on the other, knowing that this will come up in discovery in other cases is a reason companies may enforce aggressively.

Why does Thomas hate porridge?

IP rights are a means of producing income. Sometimes even generational wealth. Having the ability to voluntarily relinquish those rights is a form of privilege. Is the current system perfect? He'll no. But it does enough things well enough often enough that it shouldn't be lightly discarded.

John Blanche did to wargaming what Vivienne Westwood did to fashion. Dungeonpunk showed us that you didn't have to respectfully render Tolkien in historical hues, but could slap on tentacles and spikes and lipstick and chequers and blazing evil moons.

Kill Team Sigma-5 has been dispatched to investigate a signal source on the Tomb World Sargon’s Arrow. After establishing a base camp, the team explored nearby ruins, only to discover the Power Cell Sanctum, a complex of power generators outputting so… #KillTeam #SpaceMarines #WarhammerCommunity

I want the popcorn franchise for the confirmation hearings.

Normally, a plaintiff's lawyer could not throw out a multi-billion-dollar settlement agreement without consulting his client. Nor could the lawyer for the defense. Even when both of those lawyers work for the same guy. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

I've been using Westlaw's AI tools. This would be, at most reasonable (ie not biglaw) billing rates, a non-starter. The tools are not good enough to allow me to save time worth more than 10%-25% of that figure. This is also not a surprise to anyone who has been tracking what the tools really cost.

Time to go back to blogs, blogging, and blog rings.

Academic research means reading 1 article, which leads you to a book and 6 other articles, which lead you to 17 articles and 4 book chapters, and oops now you’re an expert in the 1990s feminist criticism of Taylorist management philosophy, a thing you didn’t know existed until 3 days ago.

You said "allowed to" in the first reply, and "illegal" in the second. I lack knowledge sufficient to admit or deny that you are capable of reciting a poem, and on that basis deny the allegation.
