One dog barks, the others have to bark twice, and so on. How can we use this energy to.. mine bitcoins perhaps? Or produce a vaccine? Go to the moon?
Kind of a Pavlovian thing going on around here

To be fair, this is a yank website where they've never heard of the dessert Pavlova. Yum.

Sounds similar to angel food cake, which is a sponge cake and not a meringue.

No, just something different. You all are just repeating yourselves over and over, damn near copy/pasta. So, obviously nobody is listening/reading, they're just posting, yelling at the clouds/moon

To be fair to comrade fustakrakich many of the posts are so predictable that the information content is almost zero.

What, you need someone to lead you around by the nose? Ever hear of "Do as I say, not as I do?" Ever consider why I tag all my journals "rehash"? And why you all should do the same for yours? Though I gotta give credit to Runaway for his journal about the "crop circles" on his CPU. That's a good story. Make no mistake, I'm not complaining. Just an observation of a few local caricatures.

Where do I say I am? But hey, the dems are a soft target with their little bourgeois noses up in the air, it can't be helped
For me, Manchin is a convenient hammer to whack the dems over the head whenever they try to show how "superior" they are when they pretend to oppose republicans but never really do. That what the "poison pills" and other pork in those bills are for, to drive even some dems away. As always, with mine and the other journals, you are all free to scroll on by. Everybody's just farting in the wind anyway. Forgive me for noticing...

Looks like real people care more about freedom than lower taxes! Here I was hoping all the conservatives would move over to Texas, maybe they still will? Surprising if those pro-life people don't move there.

No actual Texans were observed in that story. Marc Benioff apparently more or less lives [virtualglobetrotting.com] in San Francisco. I gather he's a real person.
My take is that we'll probably see the law reversed on two fronts - first, the constitutionality of the law (allowing people to snitch in court for something that Texas can't have as an actual legal ban) and second, via elections (I wonder how many voters appreciate their state representatives wasting time on anti-abortion garbage, especially garbage this ripe).

Yup, the DoJ complaint pretty much pegs it on a few fronts. Not least is that the various figleaves that the texan legislators tried to put in front of their ban are just so much nonsense. They can't absolve the state of responsibility, for example, when it's the state's courts adjudicating it. Pretending that it's a private cause of action doesn't prevent it from being a state-initiated liability (because no theory in tort law would support that), making all the items severable doesn't mean that the court can't simply hollow it out like a hallowe'en pumpkin. On pretty much every level it's a zombie that just doesn't yet know that it's dead.
The stupid part is that the other big recent states' rights move which actually called the feds' bluff in an intelligent way succeeded, because it stuck to the simple question of the extent of the commerce clause; marijuana. If the feds challenge it and win, they lose big points and look like the jackbooted thugs that they are, and if they lose a whole bunch of other stuff looks very wobbly in terms of federal power. Here the state is trying to extend state power by (in effect) offering letters of marque to private individuals to do things on the state's behalf that the state never had the power to do since the question of the compelling interest was investigated in Roe vs Wade.
