Well, you see, that would fall under the “well regulated” part of the 2A which always seems to be ignored.

Right, exactly. And that got me thinking: what counts as a view?

Do you have to click play and watch it or does it count as a view if it shows up in your feed and you scroll past it? I’m leaning toward the latter, but I don’t have any knowledge of how Twitter’s metrics work (if there is even any logic to them, that is).

I definitely agree that it wasn’t anywhere near 16m unique people, so I do feel a little better about our species. lol

the saddest part is that he still got over 16M views already

For the sake of my faith in humanity, is there any chance Musk might have had his thumb on the scale there?

It might be shocking to hear, but most places could have nice things like this if the majority of people would get out and vote. I could not be happier for Minnesotans.

I’m pretty sure the slip started back in 1954 when ‘under god’ was added to the pledge of allegiance. We’ve managed to keep it mostly limited to that until relatively recently, but their foot has been in the door for decades.

Makes me think of an old Family Guy gag where someone was trying to interview them (Joan Rivers, maybe?) and Brian is like “your microphone isn’t even plugged in”.

Just going through the motions of when they were relevant, unable to let go and move on.

Yeah, for sure. Even though I disagree with it, I understand it (despire her seemingly going for the nuclear option).

It’s an apartment complex which likely is already a no-smoking environment. Logically speaking, cannabis smoke shouldn’t get an exception. The order just seems to prohibit the man from smoking, so I assume other methods are still on the table.

Pretty much everyone I know with a medical card uses a vaporizer. Little to no smell and much easier on the lungs. That, or edibles.

I feel like there’s got to be a middle ground between, “I don’t want to smell this” and getting a court order to stop someone from taking their medicine in their own home.

That’s 90% of the reason I swore off Windows entirely; I don’t even bother with dual boot anymore. I don’t want any of the cloud crap, AI, ads, or “suggestions” in my operating system. As add-on features, sure, whatever, but not as part of the default experience.

Just run my programs, do what I ask, and remember who the system belongs to.
