Geoffrey Skelly, an analyst for Decision Desk HQ, responded on X: “If Kentucky had just remained part of Virginia in 1789, voters there could be voting for #VAGov right now. Their loss.”

The Louisville Democratic Party responded on X: “We are here for this energy. Kentucky, put our primary May 19, 2026 and Election Day, November 3, 2026 in your calendar for our next elections!”

Journalist Caitlin Huey-Burns wrote on X: “This is a good public service announcement.”

George Conway, a former Republican lawyer, responded: “There is a distinct possibility that some people are too stupid to participate in a democracy.”

is this seriously not the onion

nobody’s saying that SNAP is worse than nothing

an example is provided in the PR’s before/after

no, the banner is what you currently see on Lenny above a community’s feed. i changed the post title to hopefully clarify that

to display the banner that moderators want for their community/magazine (i just call it a commag)?

anything else would be a disservice, frankly

No. It’s just “6-7”. It is not supposed to be a rating or something with actual meaning at all. It’s just a pattern.

“slop” didn’t explode in popularity this year tho

two

the act of persuasion involves a degree of acting

In the memo, ahead of the campaign’s launch, executives grappled with whether to include public disclosures about “secondary” use – water used in generating the electricity to power its datacentres.

They warned that full transparency was “a one-way door” and advised keeping AWS’s projections confidential, even as they feared that their advice could invite accusations of a cover-up. “Amazon hides its water consumption” was one negative headline the authors anticipated.

Callaghan said efficiency savings have already been achieved and pointed out that other companies also don’t count secondary water use.

Scientists balked at the selective disclosure and the choice not to include secondary use of water in the total.

finally an article whose text is just as oniony

indeed, katakana. the actual website name is “マリウス”, which I’m guessing means “Marius”.

perhaps, but that’s also cruel…

Last year, Laker reportedly won a conference championship for the wrestling team at the school.

I wouldn’t blame him if he doesn’t compete feeling that it’s unfair for everyone else.

Laker Jackson “has been enrolled in QCUSD since elementary school and has been registered as a biological female throughout their time in our district,” the district’s statement read in part. “The day before basketball tryouts, the parent submitted a new birth certificate and a doctor’s note indicating a gender change. Our schools rely on a student’s original birth certificate at birth to determine athletic eligibility […] We informed the parent that documentation such as a chromosome analysis could be considered to help support or verify eligibility in accordance with policy.”

Becky Jackson told KNXV that the cheapest option for genetic testing her family was able to find would cost them $1,500 — with no guarantee that her son would be granted eligibility. “So who’s going to pay for that?”

Have you tried the Black Country, New Road –related scene like Squid, English Teacher, Fontaines D.C. (it stands for Dublín City)? Or maybe Divorce, which is “normal” indie rock? And King Gizzard is usually a safe option

(there’s also Ladybird but Servo is more exciting as the Rust one that used to be supported by Mozilla and now by the Linux Foundation)

I don’t think this was a suggestion, just a showerthought based on existing mobile app behavior

I don’t think he was that rich… surely there’s richer Americans who opposed even richer Americans and got knocked down, like at least Aaron Swartz. Not that I disagree with them on what led to their deaths. (Also, insult? More like going to great yet civil and pleasantrishly-polite lengths to oppose his campaigns.)
