I've lived in Alabama for almost a decade now. Conservative southerns are not tripping about COVID/mask mandates or unemployment benefits being revoked. Any opportunity to go against the federal government (and ultimately society) is a show of strength and a rallying cry (except when it's minorities). I've seen it too many times. These folks are passionately stubborn and don't care.
And give the least backYet these southern states are the biggest takers of the government system.
It's good, imo. Parking requirements undermine density. They have generally been a disaster.
Minny did the right thing
My girls friend just got got by an enterprising young scammer.
On IG, an attractive man slid into her DM's, kicked game to her for about 2-3 weeks.
it's going great, he wants to meet, he just wants to get vaccinated first.
but first he just needs some help with something.
he says "i got some money I wanna convert to bitcoin",
im gunna e-transfer 3k to you. just head down to the bitcoin ATM.
and convert the 3k to bitcoin and send it to my wallet.
she says cool no prob, she receives the 3k, withdraws the cash from the bank
heads down to the bitcoin ATM and sends him the money.
couple days later, an additional 3k gets taken from her account,
the banks says the 3k you withdrew was transferred from fraudulent accounts,
so we are are taking 3k back from you.
this is all to say, Bitcoin has unleashed a golden age for scammers,
look at the rise in ransomware attacks...
at what point does the US government make it illegal to convert bitcoin to cash. or make it illegal for banks to hold bitcoin?
and at that point doesn't that instantly decimate the value of bitcoin?
I just don't understand how it's 2021 and people are still being tricked by strangers regarding money.
I literally got hit with one of these this morning from a fugazi employerapparently another version of this scam,
a fake employer hires you, gives you employment contract, but they say they pay in bitcoin so they need you to set up a bitcoin wallet.
they e-transfer you "a signing bonus" and tell you to withdraw it and send it to you bitcoin wallet address they've set up for you.
once you do it, you lose access to the wallet and your bank takes back the money withdrew from your account.
That’s perfectly true. The problem is that Republicans have already politicized the court. Breyer couldn’t stop it when it happened, and he can’t reverse it now.“My experience of more than 30 years as a judge has shown me that, once men and women take the judicial oath, they take the oath to heart,” he said last month in a lecture at Harvard Law School. “They are loyal to the rule of law, not to the political party that helped to secure their appointment.”
In the speech, a version of which will be published in September as a book called “The Authority of the Court and the Peril of Politics,” Justice Breyer said that the odor of partisanship damages the judiciary.
“If the public sees judges as politicians in robes,” he said, “its confidence in the courts, and in the rule of law itself, can only diminish, diminishing the court’s power.”
Its anti-capitalist. Capitalism doesn't care about identity. So every time they are outright racist, they are saying **** you to America.Old white people thinking they must protect the status quo by being the safeguard against a growing diverse coalition trying to make these institutions truly democratic and in turn, make it inevitable that the fascism antidemocratic racist coalition captures these institutions.

Stephen Breyer would happily hand down decisions that capitalists hate if liberals were in the majoirty.Its anti-capitalist. Capitalism doesn't care about identity. So every time they are outright racist, they are saying **** you to America.
