The president can order agencies to reschedule it, which makes it defacto legal in a lot of states, and means federal employees in states where it’s legal can use, including military.

She should do that asap, because the fight to actually legalize is a lot harder.

I don’t want to see her say it needs to be legalized and then refuse to take any step thats not the hardest

Sheep breeds that are not allowed in Montana were brought into the state as part of the conspiracy, including 43 sheep from Texas, prosecutors said.

Dude sold to “trophy hunters” and brought in animals that will outcompete and replace native species.

It’s a pretty big deal ecologically, and was done for just about the worst reasons

And it wasn’t even super unique sheep, it was a couple states away

Also unsure how much “cloning” went into pulling sperm off removed testicles…

In October 2019, court records said, Schubarth paid a hunting guide $400 for the testicles of a trophy-sized Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep that had been harvested in Montana and then extracted and sold the semen, court records said.

This is just self proclaimed labels…

So it makes sense we’d see 50% “moderate” and then around 25% for the other two:

Reality check: The youngest age group still appears to favor liberal positions on some issues as much as those ages 25 to 29, Anil Cacodcar, the student chair of the Harvard Youth Poll, noted.

In a poll earlier this year, the younger group was just as likely to say basic health insurance is a human right and government should spend more to reduce poverty.

They’re still progressive on issues.

Reasons aren’t excuses.

Excuses absolve guilt, reasons help us prevent it from happening again. It’s a lot easier to prevent shit when you understand it

You think he responds to shit like a functional adult?

Sounds like the article is a little confused, or this is brand new stuff, which is possible.

The comments about wanting to murder people that I knew about came him and a friend filming Black people leaving a cvs and them “knowing” they were all shoplifters and wanting to kill them for it. They’d just go sit outside drug stores because of propaganda and “filming subjects”.

There was also the video where he tried to jump a younger girl and when 3 black guys (his age) yelled at him not to hit a young girl. He immediately fell to the ground in a fetal position and started crying and begging, literally that was his reaction to being told not to beat a young girl.

Those two examples together showed he didn’t have the same basic reactions to a situation any normal human would have. And that he can’t properly identify risks.

I mean, we will anyways…

Biden broke Trump’s fossil fuel production record, and Harris cast the tiebreaking vote for fracking.

Just because trump would be worse, doesn’t mean we should ignore the last four years was worse than Trump’s in this area too. If shit gets worse no matter what we do, the least we can do is make noise about it.

Pretending trump is the only issue doesn’t help

Until we get money out of Dem primaries; people willing to do shady shit will keep winning Dem primaries

Whatever they believe…

They could say they want M4A, no more billionaires, and our college system to be fixed, then say they’re a conservative because Dad said their family is conservative.

They’re ignoring the people who could be convinced to vote D in favor of Trumpers who will never vote D.

It’s just terrible strategy, especially it results in republicans going further right.

“The American people deserve a president who cares more about border security than playing political games,” Harris plans to say, according to an excerpt of her remarks previewed by her campaign.

After the immigration legislation stalled, the Biden administration announced rules that bar migrants from being granted asylum when U.S. officials deem that the southern border is overwhelmed. Since then, arrests for illegal border crossings have fallen.

It might be what a plurality of Americans want, but not if we narrow it down to anyone that would ever vote D.

Some did, but the whole point of Israel was a place for European countries to send their Jewish populations.

People who even if they were also ethnically Semitic, were descended from people who voluntarily left the area generations ago.

They could have immigrated there, instead European governments just declared it was theirs now.

Like, imagine if every American with Irish heritage were granted birthright citizenship there and the people who never left are shoved down into an ever shrinking slice of land. That’s what’s happening

Every dollar saved because of “defensive aid” gets spent on offensive weapons…

If they had to pay for their own defense, they wouldn’t be able to start so many wars at once.

Oh, I’m fully aware it sucks, just not sure why that person is defending it

I’ve literally never seen any person argue that forced arbitration is a good thing for consumers…

It’s always corporations

The nearly $2.5 million investment — shared first with POLITICO — aims to help break Republican supermajorities in deep-red states and strengthen voter engagement efforts across the U.S. It’s part of a broader push for increased local support by the DNC, which says it’s increased state party funding by 25 percent during Jaime Harrison’s tenure as chair.

Chump change compared to what the “victory fund” nonsense is robbing from the state parties…

This is 50k per state if split evenly, but it says 400k to Florida…

Edit:

which says it’s increased state party funding by 25 percent during Jaime Harrison’s tenure as chair.

Just highlights how much the “victory fund” has fucked over state parties ever since Hillary dreamed it up in 2015.

It’s usually a pretty hard sell of “make the company you work at shittier to make more money”, especially since most of the employees probably know gabe personally (valve has less than 400 employees) and likely approve of his leadership.

And most of the ones with the high percent have been there since the beginning, probably close to Gabe’s age, looking towards retirement. They make good money, but retirement is expensive.

I mean. That link from this year said Microsoft was thinking 16 billion. 1% of that is 160 million.

Or they may die and their kids see dollar signs when a vote comes up

Steam is great now, it’s not debatable. But its naive to expect it indefinitely. 10 years, 20 years from now? It wouldn’t be surprising if Valve was a lot shittier than it is today

It won’t last forever

Usually it’s forced arbitration, you can’t sue

It really favors the company. Steam is explicitly saying no arbitration which levels the playing field.

Arbitration doesn’t save money. You still need lawyers.

What’s bigger is this explicitly says it allows class actions. Something that most prevent and require individual arbitration, consumers are better off when they can pool resources for lawyers against a giant corporation, especially since most would require an upfront payment for a large class action.

Not sure, apparently the 25% figure is really new, Wikipedia is sourcing something from 2017 that says he has 50+.

This is the most up to date I can find that attributes a source

Insights from Dior, a prominent figure in the Counter-Strike community, reveal that Gabe Newell owns less than 25% of Valve. This suggests that a significant portion of Newell’s wealth is tied to his equity in the company. The decision to sell Valve wouldn’t rest solely with Newell; numerous employees who likely hold stock options could also have a say through a voting process if an offer were made.

So it sounds like a lot was given to employees from the beginning, which track with Gabe.

Then he may have cashed out a couple times, but I doubt that when he could just do the billionaire thing where he borrows against his stock counting on the value increasing enough to pay off the last with a new?

But then again Gabe is different and might not do that out of principle.

It’s not publicly traded, so I guess we don’t really know unless Valve discloses who owns what. Which I just realized is pretty concerning on its own.

Yeah, but Gabe is down to 25% ownership.

He could be pushed out at anytime. It’s this weird situation where if a serious challenger to Steam really takes off, the 75% may demand Steam gets shittier to make more money.

But Gabe won’t last forever anyways, who knows what will happen without him. Which means people do want some kind of challenger to prevent a monopoly, but that just makes the other scenario more likely

Steam is already a huge outlier
