Just went through this with both kids… The word “need” always implies a goal. “I need x (to do y)”. Without context, the goal is generally either survival, or more often, comfort: “I need a drink.” “I need a break.”

When you’re speaking in the context of doing something, as superglue was, that becomes the implied goal. “I need those recommendations to automatically populate (in order for my wife to be comfortable using this)” is a perfectly valid use of the word “need”.

Lol, you’re welcome to it! And it’s always fun to see your comics!

Yeah, but they responded to what you said! “Anywhere in their houses” could be just wherever in the house, or any specific spot; as in “is there anywhere to pee in the house?”

The thing that really made my kid anti-trump? When some of his classmates started getting nervous about ICE visits.

Ahh, fair point on the source. I should probably let myself wake up more before posting :P

You’re right though, it’s a weird “study”… feels more like a quick test I’d run locally to check my processes than anything with real rigor.

That surely depends on how they do it!

… doesn’t it say Republicans claim similar spam from Democrats got through?

My main takeaway is the Republicans want to block Democrat messaging, and via projection, assume Google is doing the reverse.

palordrolap posted a link to an article that discusses it in depth. To summarize tho, many anti-abortion women themselves end up needing and getting an abortion. They rarely change their stance as a result.

Pretty sure this was just a play on the similar pronunciations between “Epstein files” and “Israeli pedophile”. It didn’t read to me as outrage bait or an expectation that Nevada should be releasing the files, just a joke that keeps the Epstein file conversation alive as a side effect.

AI will now supplement all interactions with the genius businessman

He spent a long time as producer and director on The Daily Show as well as it’s host, and it looks like he’s got some other producer/directory credits as well.

He’s been saying he doesn’t want the job, but did you read the article? He brought up on his own the idea of a reality show host taking over the Dems; and when Mehdi Hasan (his interviewer) asked if he meant himself, Stewart didn’t deny it. Didn’t push back.

Just chuckled.

It sounds to me like he’s reconsidering, and testing the waters.

I certainly think he’s shown amazing leadership ability.

He’s always expressed an active disinterest… but in the interview the article’s talking about, he brought up the possibility of “the right reality host” taking over the Democratic party on his own. Then didn’t deny it or push back when the interviewer asked if he meant himself.

That’s the most positive I’ve heard him be about the possibility.

Teachers are generally awesome. But school boards and superintendents are almost stereotypically control freaks; and that’s who sets this stuff up. There are plenty of good ones too, but it’s not nearly as selfless a group as teachers.

Yeah, think around 2006.

Then she ended up going and getting a husband and kids anyway! But it was the bonus round at that point.

You don’t have to be president to be a leader

It seems like, if they’re publicly denying responsibility, Steam and Itch now have legal cover to restore everything.

I’m not a lawyer, etc. etc., but don’t public statements from these kinds of entities inform how these clauses can be enforced?

Which sounds to me like Steam and Itch could restore everything. Unless MC/Visa wants to publicly say they can’t?

That’s not censorship. That’s just social consequences.
