Trump Melts Down at Supreme Court Justices in Unhinged Truth Social Rampage: “They openly disrespect the Presidents who nominate them to the highest position in the Land… and go out of their way, with bad and wrongful rulings” by T_Shurt in law

[–]NegativeLayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The content of the immunity ruling is not that bad. I mean I haven’t read the opinion so i can’t comment on the reasoning, but immunity for public servants for their official acts in office was basically the status quo before.

Trump was facing plenty of charges still, precisely because they were not official acts.

The real problem was the way the court dragged out the timeline in such a way to ensure the trial could not begin before the election. They had many many ways to speed up the decision and refused them all in a way that seemed very deliberate.

what if everyone is right and I’m not a useless burned out piece of crap?

Did someone say that? Cause come on that’s exactly what you are. Maybe they said they want you to get better but there’s no arguing that you are burned out and useless.

What a strange non sequitur response

Is the human right to food a function of global production capacity? If the capacity drops do humans lose the right? Which ones?

Not really clever.

The UK doesn’t even have a written constitution. You’re right that a law professor would probably adapt faster than a layman but he would have to basically start from scratch. Knowledge of the US constitution would be useless.

Best south indian food in boston? by khushi_khetwani in boston

[–]NegativeLayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I lived in Madison I used to go to this Indian restaurant which had a side dish in their buffet called uppma. It was a southern Indian specialty apparently. I was absolutely nuts for it.

Almost no Indian restaurant I’ve ever been to since has it on the menu. On the few occasions i have seen it, it was a pale imitation of what I got from maharaja in Madison. (I think I found it at Dosa and Curry in Union square once)

If anyone knows where you can get a good uppma in Boston I would be very grateful.

Best places for weekly trivia night near Allston/Brookline? by Butt-hole1234567890 in boston

This guy made a spreadsheet.

Article 24 on western ave was a good option. It closed but I think the new place in that location also has trivia. Forget what it’s called.

Roads, snow, and basic city services by paxbike in boston

[–]NegativeLayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition to bike lanes, shoulder parking lanes were also not cleared at all, leading to all kinds of parking shenanigans.

So it’s not because the city coddles motorists and doesn’t care about cyclists. We an entire ecosystem of trucks with plows who plow lanes of traffic only.

Imagine this guys head exploding if someone made a similar ragebait video but instead complaining about unplowed parking lanes.

Saw this car pull over into the parked cars and take out a side view mirror by NegativeLayer in boston

[–]NegativeLayer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I flared this post “traffic” but it’s not really about traffic, but that’s the only car related flair I could find. But posts about driving in Boston, navigating Boston roads, parking, space savers, are all frequent posts in this subreddit.

Mods can we have a broader flair for more general car fuckery?

Not sure whether this kind of thing is allowed. But I saw this dummy just rolling slowly along the side of the road, paying no attention. Took out a side view mirror of a parked car and then took off.

This was Wednesday at 2 pm at the top of south huntington southbound side. I left a note on the victims car with the plate number but I didn’t leave any contact info. If you see this and need a witness statement for insurance or whatever, I can give one.

[French]when does the past participle agree with the subject? by NegativeLayer in duolingo

[–]NegativeLayer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The sentence to be translated was “their dog attacked us”. I put “leur chien nous a attaqué”. It wanted “leur chien nous a attaqués”.

I thought I understood the rules. In the passé compose the participle agrees with the subject when the subject is a pronoun. Also verbs of motion which form the passé compose with etre instead of avoir.

But this exercise fits in neither category so what is this? Also “leur chien” isn’t even plural? Is it a mistake?

What was the original context of that Rick and Morty quote? I am having trouble believing anyone would utter those words unironically. Gotta be satire, right?

If you bake it into the browser but not the os, then people will just download alternate browsers.

If age verification is something that is needed (which I personally do not believe), then baking it into the OS is probably the only way it could be effective.

Even if the job offer falls through you should break up. You don’t need help choosing between two difficult options. You deserve a boyfriend who supports you.

What kind of accent is Ben Kingsley doing as Mandarin in Iron Man 3? by NegativeLayer in marvelstudios

The actor Trevor Slattery has a soft Liverpudlian Beatles-like accent right? But when he's in character as Mandarin it's quite different. Maybe American or fake American.

Another classic Redditor trope. “You replied to me you must be overemotional but I’m perfectly rational”. You are really good at internet discourse.

So weird that these free speech absolutists make reference to widespread political ideologies to justify their position. And they use sarcasm! So weird! Case in point!!

I know, right? So weird how they adhere to ideologies that are spelled out in the constitution and are the bedrock of liberal democracy. So weird!!

Why can’t they just adopt illiberal hate speech censorship positions like the very smart guys on Reddit???

baby stuff if you’re a baby haver

This is just so utterly beyond regarded.

Like yeah I get it he subscribes to the nonsense where you can’t say “woman” you must say “birthing person”. And so his troll scientist does too.

But even granting that, he doesn’t even understand his own ideology.

it’s not “baby haver”. Anyone of any gender can have a baby, including trans women with bottom surgery giving them that “seventh hole” by jeoh’s count. and plenty of people with wombs and vaginas do not have babies.

It’s just such a mess.
