However, in that same interview, McCrory noted that the North Carolina Republican Party had known for awhile that Robinson’s extreme policy positions and rhetoric could come back to bite them, calling the sitting lieutenant governor a “ticking time bomb.” He laid blame for Robinson’s likely loss in November at the feet of former state GOP chair Michael Whatley, who is now the chairman of the Republican National Committee.

I’d blame racist Mark Robinson, but what do I know about politics.

Spay. There’s no reason not to. There are more cats than homes willing to take them in. My brother’s family adopted a kitty they found in their yard and she had two kittens at only one year old. The kitten that they kept has to be kept from his mom until he’s neutered or she’s spayed because cats will bang family members (I didn’t know this previously).

As someone else pointed out, cats get outside unexpectedly. One of mine was missing for 24h after I didn’t secure a door properly. Glad she didn’t come home preggers cause she was spayed by the adoption agency.

Congrats on your new friend!

Stop doing this.

They’re going to get a beer and a hotdog but they’ll be right back.

Rasmussen has long been criticized for its polling, which focuses on “likely voters,” and for skewing toward older Americans and providing favorable results to conservatives. During the Trump administration, its website became overtly supportive of the right wing, with many of its polls sponsored by conservative personalities and causes. On social media, Rasmussen appeared to legitimize many conspiracy theories on the right, such as election fraud and vaccine denialism.

Yank their non-profit status.

They’ve got the bank account to do so successfully. But I don’t think they’d wanna piss off his lunatic supporters and risk domestic terrorism.

Till has filed a lawsuit, seeking more than $75,000 for “inflicting fear and severe emotional distress.”

I hope they win. I hope they get more. I hope it’s the key to them finding permanent housing.

It’s four journalists who broke away from their former employers and started their own thing. It’s ok to charge money to run a business. The quality of their work is top notch.

I work in IT. Five bucks says their government-issued phones can be unlocked by an MDM (Mobile Device Management) profile.

I’m talking about the senate. Each state gets two reps.

He’s an elected public servant. Regardless of whether or not we want to protect ourselves from prosecution, he’s supposed to be accountable for his actions and he’s deliberately spoiling the investigation.

Apple has a feature to restrict changing the passcode when not in a typical geolocation. This is to prevent thieves from shoulder-surfing your passcode in a bar and then snatching the phone and changing the code. If you’re at home or at work (where the phone recognizes your typical behavior / location), it shouldn’t activate. In a random location, it would. I don’t know how well that works. It’s a relatively recent feature (within a year or so, I think).

They all read a shitty fiction book (The Turner Diaries; you can download a pdf for free; please don’t buy it because it contributes profits to racism) in which that’s a part of the plot leading to societal collapse. Timmy McVeigh (OK City bomber) had a copy in his car when he got arrested.

Also, we’re in beta

That means there might be a few hiccups along the way. If you run across any problems you can always let us know, and we’ll do our best to fix them.

I would have thought this is a disqualifier in terms of quality of the service, but if that’s acceptable to you then I’m glad you got something that works.

The kitties are still slightly suspicious after we left them for five days to visit family (a friend came to check on them). The little one just jumped up and back down after about ten seconds. That’s what’s happening here.

Papa John’s (in midwest; it’s terrible in California). Agree with sibling poster that local shops are better (they don’t exist in the midwest).

I wasn’t bullied into casting a vote for Hilldog (she fucking sucks). I am going to vote against the orange bad because I’ve seen how awful his time in office was. I’m not a fan of Harris, but I’m very anti-him. Dems aren’t good enough, but he’s terrible enough that I must do what I can to prevent another term.

I dunno. I kinda think it’s cool that a state twenty times smaller than my own (Alaska, California) gets an equal share of say to my own. /s

“After an extensive review, we found that police officers in Lexington routinely make illegal arrests, use brutal and unnecessary force and punish people for their poverty — including by jailing people who cannot afford to pay fines or money bail,” said Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke, who leads the civil rights division. “For too long, the Lexington Police Department has been playing by its own rules and operating with impunity. It’s time for this to end.”

Seems pretty standard for the south (Missouri is south-adjacent).

And Lonnie’s platform blocks links. Something I thought he’d never do, what with being the “free speech” guy. /s Lonnie’s a hypocrite, but we all knew that.
