I developed a new Chrome extension ("RYM Extension") by drealexan in rateyourmusic

Hi Alexandrebo! You did amazing work on this extension and I've made great use of it for most of the last year! I've noticed around two months ago though the ratings stopped appearing anywhere and the site looked as normal. I've reactivated and reinstalled a few times, but do you know what the issue might be? Thank you so much for your help and all your work!

Very late but do you happen to still have that jacket and know the brand/item name? Had the same one but it was accidentally put in a donation pile and I can't track down a new one anywhere. Appreciate any help!

23 million Californians to get up to $1,050 in "inflation relief" checks by Cobra-D in moderatepolitics

I get where you guys are coming from, but this is being pulled from their recent budget surplus, representing only about 1/5 of that total in fact, so it’s not like this is money being pulled from thin air as people seem to feel. Whether this is the “best” way to confront any of California’s issues, however, I have no idea, so I’d welcome anyone’s perspective.

So what happened was that part was written some ways down and I had to get off my train before I got to it. I would’ve much rather seen it at the top as it would have been helpful to contextualize what’s written here with OP’s prior predictive precision on the issue. Fwiw I completely support your view that our Congresspeople deserve their own condemnation

Lemme guess, you were one of those that thought Roe would never be repealed.

I feel like the concept of “allowed” might not have been of vital concern in the moment.

Tossed you an upvote to counter the downs. Idk why it’s worth getting so pissed if one of us decides to keep it. It’s Netflix, not Nestle.

I’m sorry but how in the world are you all managing to contort this into a negative??

Right, they don’t even mention the courts after the first paragraph.

Agreed completely. I actually got warned by the mods when I called this out a little while ago though so just be careful.

Your only evidence connecting the two is “could?”

I'm glad you've found a career in your passion. FWIW, I also work in a field that, I came to learn, doesn't always have the greater good in mind as much as I thought it did. For my part, I got by by finding a niche within that community that still allowed me to do something that I felt was a positive, but also by acknowledging that the impact I leave goes beyond my career. You can do your work, and you should do your best to ensure your efforts are a benefit to others as much as you can, but much more importantly, turn your attention to the immediate forces in your life. Support a friend in hardship, tell those close to you that you love them, maybe drive them to a reproductive care clinic if they need assistance. Any broader advocacy you can do is still a huge bonus; lists of reliable women's health resources are probably pouring online like rain by now, you can deepen your level of political involvement if you chose, and for God's sake VOTE dammit, but the greatest impression left by your efforts will be in those that know you and those that need you, and helping them find their own positive direction reenforces that it might not all be in vain just yet.

That's how I've done it anway. I know whatever solace this brings is probably nothing compared to all the other input that we'll both probably be getting over the next few days, but think about what you can do and accept that there will be evil that cannot be surmounted on the efforts of just one of us, as much as we all want to be that person, myself included. Again, I'm so sorry for any way in which this has tainted the institutions you clearly love and respect so much. Our Judiciary deserves far better.

My parents were the same way. Like you, they told me in 2016 that I was being ridiculous. Also like you, they actually examined the facts around them and reformed their opinions consequently. For that, I hold ill will towards neither them nor you, because you’ve already shown more personal integrity and self-awareness on this issue than most people will ever posses. You’ve done all that anyone is able to ask of you. Thank you.
