@AlliFlowers The punishment should fit the crime.
... I'm also now somewhat tempted to write a mediapipe wrapper that detects Carleson in video and adds in these pieces, though realistically I think I'd have to reduce the number of bowties.

Why do the *bad guys* ALWAYS want "to move forward" when it's about the #GQP yet can't "move forward" when it's about a Dem?
Double standards much?
Should have been BILLIONS with EVERY "reporter" STARTING and ending their "segments" with A FULL THROATED DECLARATION that THEY LIED!
That TFG IS STILL LYING!

This just in: profile in the New Yorker of CAPTCHA and Duolingo guy saying that AI will be a better teacher than teachers. Not profiled: teachers.

As a former teacher, I know this bill would discourage my former students from reading. For many years, it was sound pedagogical practice to give students a choice in what they read. This bill is taking education backwards. #txed #txlege https://www.dallasnews.com/news/politics/2023/04/13/bill-requiring-texas-schools-to-tell-parents-what-books-kids-check-out-passes/?sailthru_id=626c33e69dd2ea034f0d7432&utm_source=Sailthru&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Politics%202023-04-18&utm_term=Politics

Shooting of 16-year-old Black teen Ralph Yarl is a direct result of GOP’s weaponization of racism and GOP's “Stand Your Ground” laws. My new article on how GOP has for years radicalized their followers to fear Black faces plus embolden them to shoot first:

BREAKING: Ali Alexander, solicitor of teen boy dick pics and January 6th co-conspirator, has just been suspended from Twitter.

I hope this settlement between Dominion and Fox involves each of their air heads -- Hannity, Carlson, Ingraham, etc -- forced to apologize at the beginning and end of each show for lying repeatedly and knowingly to America, and they have to admit President Biden won the election.
Every time their show airs, for a year.
Anything less would be weak sauce.
@KayJanes Maybe we’ll get one with Smartmatic.

In 1930, the 22-million-pound Indiana Bell building was rotated 90 degrees over a month at a rate of 15 inches per hour, while 600 employees worked inside. Despite the slow movement, there was no interruption to the building's services, and none of the employees felt it move. #ConstructionHistory #StructuralEngineering
@MollyTheWildWitch I know all too well. On the bright side, we should be getting a return to service between Mobile and New Orleans very soon.

As much as I hate this case settling, hard to criticize Dominion for it. They stepped up and took on an evil cancer to our country at huge risk and up-front cost. They proved their case, humiliated them, and made them write a big check. Nobody criticizing them has done as much.

It's Not Sexist to Ask an 89-Year-Old Who Isn't Showing Up to Work to Consider Retirement

@StillIRise1963 I was able to take the train from Tampa to West Palm, from West Palm to Jax, and from Jax back to Tampa. But I couldn’t start in Pensacola. I had to fly from P’cola to Tampa. Ridiculous. #trains

@obscurestar That would be better than any amount of cash settlement!

@AlliFlowers
They better be required to make repeated public admissions of their lies.
At the very least I hope the deal requires Carleson to wear 8 bowties and a Pinocchio nose any time he's in front of a camera.
@StillIRise1963 I’d even settle for ANY train that moves along the gulf coast.
Damn. I really wanted to see this play out in court.
