I saw a reel where Hawley said "nothing says honesty like taking the fifth, hey doc"? And then stared at Fauci like he just got owned, not realizing he looks like a moron for saying that.
I'm on the fence about this. On one hand, it's one less R vote. On the other hand, Kentucky has been leaning blue lately, so it's possible a dem would be elected (though that's obviously not guaranteed).
There's also been talk about the governor appointing someone, which would be best. But I've also read that Kentucky changed their constitution after he was elected taking that power away from the governor, and forcing a special election for cases like this.
My guess is that the governor is being pushed to appoint someone so the Rs have to sue saying it's against the Kentucky constitution. In doing so, the status of McConnell would be part of discovery.
The difference is "let's figure this out so we're both happy" versus "stop this or I'm leaving". Boundaries let the other person know what we're comfortable with and what our limits are. Ultimatums are about control.
In my example, the boundary is feeling neglected because of so much time playing video games, and the limit is not wanting to be in a relationship where one feels neglected. Finding a mutually agreeable solution shows respect.
The ultimatum of "stop playing video games or I'm leaving" is about controlling what someone does. It neglects the video game players needs while prioritizing the person giving the ultimatum
The terms are confusing, for sure, and it doesn't help that some boundaries could easily be interpreted as ultimatums. "I'm not staying with you if you cheat on me", for example, could be read as both.
Boundaries are healthy limits set to protect oneself, while ultimatums are demands that pressure others to change, often with a threat.
Boundaries respect both parties. Ultimatums prioritize one’s own needs.
Using the meme as an example, "if you don't stop playing video games I'm leaving" is an ultimatum, putting herself first. It neglects the fact that he enjoys playing video games, and forces him to choose between her or his hobbies.
"I feel neglected when you play video games so much instead of spending time with me, what can we do to find something that works for both of us. If we can't find a solution, I worry about the sustainability of our relationship" would express her feelings, identify his behavior that is causing those feelings, and respect the fact that his hobbies are important to him and give him space to continue enjoying them. And the boundary is "if we can't work together on this, this relationship won't work".
There is nothing in what I said that suggests connotation or social acceptance are a factor - polyamory exists, couples could enjoy drugs together, and money is important to everyone. What you listed are your boundaries, and that's cool - I have the same ones. But they're not universal (though definitely some of the most common). What matters is how they are communicated.
You're right - it may feel obvious to him but not her. But saying "sometimes I feel neglected, let's figure out how to fix that" is much healthier than saying "stop or I'll leave"
I think the number of guns law enforcement has access to will be somewhat proportionate to the number of guns the public has access to. It's completely reasonable to say "citizens don't have guns so now law enforcement will not feel the need to regularly carry guns"
Unfortunately America has more guns than people, so I'm not sure we'll ever get there
Why do you think DEI is a bad thing?
I think we need more moths

I'm happy to help out if I am deemed worthy
I'll direct my own movie! With blackjack and hookers!
The GitHub page links to a live demo page if you want to check it out. I even see your post on there!
I always saw it like they put a ton of effort drawing his face and gave up on his body, so it's like a stick figure
I popped that goog and it's just a YouTube channel for cute animals. It's also apparently a thing in the Zootopia movies

There's a difference between ultimatums and boundaries
They're both considered correct, but snuck is newer and grammar nerds don't like that for some reason.
According to grammarly regarding "snuck":

My kid is way cooler than me and it's not fair
I never thought I'd have kids, so it's been a journey that I've been enjoying (surprisingly)
It's not working for me on boost, but does work on the web. The kid is just holding up some cash
Good question! When I wake up I can remember some pictures, but as the day goes on I can't remember it. Like it fades away
I have this, and sometimes I occasionally visual dreams, but it's usually strong emotions, conversations, or music
That's an oddly specific thing to withhold funds from
