Hard Pass

The fact that no one has risen up in arms shows that America is well-done cooked.

look at the flowers they grew they're so proud

A Louisiana man said during a state Senate redistricting hearing that MAGA was "the last breath of the Confederacy."

In an emotional speech on Monday, the resident who identified himself as Marshawn said he had "zero doubt" that Republicans in the state would pass a map that erased majority-Black districts.

"If y'all can give us less than zero seats, you would do it. Y'all do this under the orders of somebody that said the Civil Rights Act was harm for the white people, that it caused reverse racism," he explained. "RFK said that Black children are overfilled on antidepressants and that they need to be re-parented on different forms, all of them. Pete Hegseth constantly brings Doug Wilson to the Pentagon to give a prayer service. Doug Wilson is the same pastor that said that slave owners were on strong spiritual ground."

Marshawn argued that the only reason Republicans supported redistricting is that President Donald Trump demanded it.

"So as far as I'm concerned, if you here as one of these Trump Republicans, you already showed us who you are. You showed us what you want to do. And I believe the country as a whole is rebuking your party. Y'all are in a death spiral. That's why you have to redistrict," he observed. "That's why y'all have to cheat. That's why Trump got to go to Texas and say he entitled to five more seats. It's because y'all know what y'all doing is abhorrent."

"But the beautiful thing is, the children that y'all have made, and the people that's younger than y'all don't support none of this racism that y'all want," the man continued. "The MAGA party is the last breath of the Confederacy, and I'll be happy to see millennials and Gen Z. bury y'all. There will be no more of your party. The midterms gonna come, y'all gonna get wiped out."

The man concluded by asserting that "Trump gonna get dragged out of the White House, and I'm gonna love every second of it."

"Because y'all loved every second of the suffering that he calls to everybody in this country. And worldwide, we starve in Cuba. We bomb Nigeria. We holding Zimbabwe and Zambia hostage for their minerals. We don't want to give them AIDS support," he added. "The pro-lifers that say all life is special, y'all letting kids die of AIDS. What part of your Bible say that? Point out the scripture. I think everybody would love to see it. And we would love to see y'all in the midterms."

The $1.776 billion ‘slush fund’ will be funded by taxpayers and be administered by a five-member commission appointed by Trump’s ex-defense lawyer

EDIT: Turns out it's ~~fake~~ ~~real~~ hard to tell?!
It's Bloomberg Getty Images number 2275322571
But it's "Editorial", which means not necessarily from a trusted news source.
But then again, it's not marked as AI/Synthetic, which Getty is supposed to do.

My opinion -- it's probably fake.

Apparently this image was taken down by a bunch of Western media; only Times of India still had it up when I checked

Can't even memorize the name. Is a meme format even good if you can't memorize it?

The complaint says DoorDash drivers began waiting to batch multiple orders together after gaining virtual visibility into kitchen systems, allowing them to see when pizzas would come out of the oven.

Instead of immediately leaving with a completed order, the suit claims drivers waited "up to fifteen (15) minutes" for additional deliveries, increasing the time between when a pizza is removed from the oven rack and when it leaves the building to be delivered. That delay slowed deliveries, disappointed customers, and caused a sharp drop in sales, the suit says.

The lawsuit also alleges Dashers could see tip amounts and whether orders were cash payments, making some drivers less likely to accept certain deliveries.

dude I would be so damn happy if I got a golden sticker from a pretty lady for each good task I did, I would be so much more productive

Also, on a related note, I literally held a 1 on 1 conversation in vrchat from literally 1am to 10am. it was so nice talking to someone who has similar issues but like also kinda has come out on the other side
