Not sure how you mean “I am in the US” but based on a bunch of assumptions, my advice would be to tune it out as much as possible and focus on being a good person making your friends and famliy happy.

This trump administration will very likely follow the last in that it will be a storm of incompetence and reversing-of-decisions such that whatever actual evil they are able to implement will show up somewhere you’d likely see it in your day-to-day life.

You’ll get a lot of stress and anxiety watching the news / social media about it because those things will include all the “might happens” and "said they would"s and so on. Forget that stuff. Just make some good food you like and make someone close to you smile today and that’s the best you can do. (And it’s not bad!)

The movie?

. . . Get out.

I don’t see what we can do to combat Trump short of organizing and fighting back. We all know how good the left are at that.

How do you think we got anything good at all, ever?

They absolutely are overworked and underpaid, but they’re choosing to get paid less to help people with no money who are getting fucked over by the system. For this they get accused of being crooked and stupid and everyone has to masturbate in front of them and enough shit that you or I would never put up with. They are the single ray of hope or at least human support for people who are losing their freedom and often a lot more, and they should get more respect.

Making a deal to help another client will get them disbarred and anyone who knows of such a thing should file a bar complaint immedately.

The most common situation is the accused actually did the alleged thing, then admitted it, then decided they didn’t want to admit it after that and there is literally nothing the lawyer can do at that point. This is why it’s incredibly important to not say anything. “Talk to my lawyer”.

This is true, although you have a constitutional right to a lawyer even if you have no money.

Either way, if they want to detain and question you, that’s arrest - You’re going to jail, you’ll need to get bail which is going to be somewhere between $100 and $20,000, probably, otherwise you’re not getting out of jail.

And nothing you say to a cop from the initial contact to the day you walk out a free person is going to help you. The best it can possibly do is not make anything worse, and that’s unlikely.

The reason you have to have a lawyer is that the lawyer is supposed to know what they’re allowed to ask you and what to do to get you out. (Some lawyers aren’t as good as others, but any honest lawyer knows these basics. - or they can ask their office.)

Now, there are simple things you can do like; be cool, polite, possibly de-escalate the situation with some empathy, but if they start asking you more than one or two questions, you need to forget everything that’s ever happened ever, immediatley. You do not remember. After the third question, just shut up and shrug.

You’re not going to talk your way out of it, and they’ll take any opportunity to take any sound you’ve uttered and turn it into some other charge against you - most people get accused of five to twenty charges for the same thing so the DA can look effective and make the total jail time seem as scary as possible.

If you gave them nothing, and they have nothing, you are in the best position possible.

The findings also push back on the idea that Neanderthals were top carnivores, given that the “brain requires glucose as a nutrient source and meat alone is not a sufficient source,” Warinner said.

We’ve got top carnivores working on this thing. Top. Carnivores.

it’s “govt.nz” so new zealand is the actual top level domain, and govt is their subdomain they use for government agencies, apparently.

Good job!

Voyager has a wonderful filter list under Settings -> Filters & Blocks. Works great and you can back up your settings to a json file in case you need to reload them.

It’s not that the country is more arrogant and idiotic (although that’s arguable) but it’s more that arrogant and idiotic messages and people are being broadcast more.

Let’s remember the large amount of people who couldn’t be bothered to vote.

We’ve had 50+ years of science about it. A big publication like Nature doesn’t need to couch a discussion about heat records as “complex” - that’s an unforced error to climate denialists.

We’re way past the point where publications should be printing very large monosyllabic words about this.

Not complicated.

I mean you can make anything complicated because it’s particles all the way down, but the heat spikes are because we killed the environment with big oil, cars, water waste and pollution.

People just drop dead now it’s so hot.

short answer: it’s complicated

No. It’s not.
