An interview about Oath, the site I'm using to donate to Dems this cycle. It targets underfunded swing races, and it DOESN'T give my contact info to campaigns. Their website is app.oath.vote . An Algorithm to Stop Democratic Donors From Wasting Their Money politi.co/49oasbL via @politico
De Partij voor de Dieren maakt wereldnieuws! Dankzij het aangenomen voorstel van onze Haagse fractie wordt Den Haag de eerste stad ter wereld die fossiele reclame wettelijk verbiedt. Een prachtig succes! Nu we laten zien dat dit kan, kunnen vele steden wereldwijd het voorbeeld gaan volgen.

visionOS 2 introduces a new system overlay for accessing home and control center that involves making a pinch gesture and rolling one's hand over. Read more about how to avoid conflicting with that interaction in the updated HIG Gestures page:
He voted for Trump in 2016 and 2020. He was a huge fan of using an executive order to stage a coup after Trump lost the last election. He was a covid denier, among other whacko conspiracy theories.
He apparently soured on Trump because of his stance on Ukraine.
The right is going to blame “the radical left” but, once again, this was one of their own.
Umm... Wow... Political censorship forces Manchester Royal Exchange to cancel it's entire production of Midsummer's Night Dream... Palestine and trans rights were the politics involved.

"On Meet The Press, Buttigieg called the lies and ensuing threats to the city “part of a strategy,” where Trump’s campaign would rather “talk about anything but their actual record and their actual agenda.”
“They need to get us talking about something else,” Buttigieg said. “The crazier, the better. And they go for something so outrageous that you actually can't ignore it...because very real pain has been inflicted on this community.”"

Review: Kill Yours, Kill Mine by Katherine Kovacic
austcrimefiction.org/review/ki…

But what’s the mechanism for these effects and is it caused by more than weight loss?
