He's trying to add every single bit of gravitas to his order
It's amazing, tbh, one thing I didn't expect from this entire situation is that the judiciary starts to really flex their literary and theatrical muscles in their authority, because while most legal business is rote ritual, they take advantage of that with this, and allow their legal opinions and the weight of their urgency to be seen
It's basically a form of shock/surprise humor in most cases; the cropped out bottom text says something absolutely unhinged, or expected, and to read it, you'll have to try hard
That way, text hits unexpectedly because you can't "pre-read" the cropped text and get a gist while you start reading the whole thing, creating a suspense when you do read it after you've read the rest
Was watching a video of Greg's economics lately (I didn't know who he was until a random video), am Dutch, so when he said that the movement of thinking bout wealth tax was gaining traction, I couldn't verify it, and his confidence was kinda turning me off
But this is very interesting, fucking hell, I didn't know this. Now let other countries take note of this, so that we can accelerate our own research into this
What kind of implementations do you mean? The last time I heard of such a thing (a few years ago), it was fixed within a few hours, and was on a dev instance
The courts have prepared for expedited process for election cases, shortening deadlines and speeding up cases, so hopefully it should cut short legal schenanigans, and actually resolve shit wayyy before certification deadlines
Europe hasn't politically recovered from the last few refugee crises, nor have national collectives been able to properly integrate or adjust to the fact they're there, it's been ran as a pressure point, and adding even more pressure will certainly enable those politicians to hit this button with greater effect.
I don't fucking understand why no European leader is looking at what Israel is doing with realpolitik and go "why the fuck are you creating another migrant crisis", unless that is exactly what they want, to get power for themselves. Urgh.
Sorry to jump in on an unrelated thread; that last reply you made to me (about your tally) is under a post that has now been deleted. You mentioned you're gonna make a final tally and a mega thread on election day; will those be in politics@lemmy.world?
Just confirming here, since I don't wanna touch the ghost reply in my inbox, since lemmy doesn't seem to like that situation very much
Omg thanks for the update on this, I bookmarked the last version, and tbh now I'm just inclined to follow your analysis, since then I can compare it to election-day counting performance and see what I can hope for, kinda cutting through the noise
PA is the kingmaker here, plus another state, and that's what imma focus on if imma doomscroll/look, cuz holy fuck this election is raising my blood pressure
The fact that the guardian is now at a point where they're calling out their lies should be a cause of concern imo, if other news outlets are not doing it, since the guardian is often anything but fact-checkers or "on the right side" of a majority of these kinds of stories
I love the Big Short
Did you make this yourself? (I'm curious if there's more)
🫵 found the sub
Isn't this the image that the person made, while someone else turned it into a story like this (student got mauled) later?

It gives me a little hope

Do you hear music?
I guess this is a quick meta joke following up on https://lemmy.world/post/37590663

And ofc this ruling will not be protested or opposed as much as the last one will be

I hate/love that I knew exactly what you were talking about
