California to offer newborn parents a month’s supply of this new, free benefit
>The Department of Health Care and Human Services and Department of Health Care Access and Information will partner with Los Angeles nonprofit Baby2Baby to offer free diapers to patients at 65 hospitals statewide that primarily serve low-income patients on Medi-Cal, though parents do not need to be on Medi-Cal to receive diapers.

He was polling very low. Somewhere around 3%. As I said, I wish he was polling higher, but he hasn't been running ads, he's not a cable news darling, there's a billionaire sucking up the oxygen, and the progs are pushing Porter.
(Also, Trump endorsed Hilton, so the GOP aren't valid any more, either. One guy is MAGA. The other is a Constitutional Sheriff.)

A lot of Californians didn't know it either until he ran his first ad 3 weeks before the primary.
He's not a cable news fave and he's not a billionaire, and we have too many people running.

Agreed, BUT... when we imposed a 3 convictions = life in prison law, the first person to be sentenced to prison for life stole a slice of pizza for his 3rd offense.
And it was the judges who led the push to reform it.
Arbitrary and draconian barriers are like that. They do not hold and they do not work.

Sanctuary laws get rid of that problem. Offender gets the same sentence, regardless of immigration status; the state and local PD simply don't record immigration status, and don't allow immigration officials access to the jail. No guilty feels, political pressure, over a deportation for a bench warrant issued for too many parking tickets.
They do tell DHS about offenders who commit major offenses, and let them know when they will be discharged from prison. Don't tell anyone, but at least in California, DHS is unreliable when it comes to picking up those people.

"Fan" was first used late 19th century.
Yes, they attack the creator for failing to meet their ideals; JKR "violated" their fantasy social justice movement. BUT, Shatner went on 2nd City, and called out Trekkies as incels, and has been doing comicons ever since to make up for it.
The attacks on JKR are viscious, but it's a matter of degree, not novelty (possibly because she's a woman not a man).

Not new or limted to JKR. LOTR, Star Trek / Wars, GOT (at least until it became clear GRR wasn't going to change the ending). I even saw an online movement to unkill Inspector Morse back in the 1990's. "Fan" is short for "fanatic".
I agree it's about comfort. Genre fans, in particular, don't like new.

- Turn off the AC when it isn't hot
- Check gas prices online

Update on Palisades fire one year later: LAFD released their report on Palisades, saying 1. they failed to put out the initial fire in January despite ground units asking to stay to put it out 2. they failed to double down on units even tho they were warned about the wind event 3. there were communication problems after a cell phone tower went out 4. hydrants are set up for municiple fires, not urban rural interface wildfires and 5. there were hurricane force winds.
Some anonymous firefighters sent in an anonymous letter (unsigned) demanding an independent review because they didn't trust LAFD to do critical oversight. All fair.

In Musk’s dark view of the world, civilization is under threat because of a declining population. He is driven to correct the historic moment by helping seed the earth with more human beings of high intelligence, according to people familiar with the matter.
His businesses are set up to serve the idea: The main objective of SpaceX is to build a rocket ship capable of getting to Mars, and his other companies, including electric-car maker Tesla, help finance the plan.
Musk refers to his offspring as a “legion,” a reference to the ancient military units that could contain thousands of soldiers and were key to extending the reach of the Roman Empire.

AOC and Bernie are thinking a much larger tax on the rich, and re-creating the New Deal. I don't think 40% will satisfy their followers (it may pacify some followers on but not the core).
I actually think it's because his replace-income-tax-with-tariffs scheme won't come off, and someone in the admin (and every economist) knows it, and DOGE isn't finding many savings. We're still stuck with a huge deficit, especially since his plan will shrink the economic base.

I'd be shocked and angry as well.
The thing is tho, it's usually possible to work your way thru corporate bureaucracy, but it requires patience, no matter what your circumstances are. (It also requires patience from the person on the other end.)
And yes, the bank cutting off her funds without notice is appalling. My question is about why.

I think maybe she had a few preconceptions and attitude. I do think if she called with an open mind, she would have had more success.
I see it differently because I have been on the other side of that call a few times, and while I do understand the frustration on the other side, starting with angry assumptions about what is going on is the least productive and informative method.
You have to start with the lesser reason and work your way up to the mass conspiracy to make a case.
Huge, if true, but I don't see the case as being made. At least not yet.

What I know, is that while the My Pillow Guy screams about being denied bank access because "POLITICS!", he was denied a new bank account because the bank was concerned about a lawsuit.
The political connection is tangential because the lawsuit was about whether or not he committed campaign fraud. Whether or not a donor donates to Trump, there are laws to be followed, and enforcing those laws prevents corruption, and is not specifically directed at any party or candidate (or, at least it used to before Trump 2).
As a result, governments denying bank access to Trump supporters has become a meme. Megan is a Trump supporter.
If you call a corporation, it helps if you know how to work the phone to get to the appropriate person. I think being directed to someone who could help would have been more illuminating than hanging up on the person who said she was trying to find out more information so she could connect Megan to the right person.
And I say this as a person who used to work at very large corporations and occasionally dealt with a customer who got accidentally connected to my extension. The customer rarely knows who they need to talk to, and they were understandably frustrated. It was my duty as a human being (and not my job), to find out for them.

The bad faith of this exchange is obvious.

The tariffs, while putatively intended to promote industrialization, have the more direct impact of directing American production back into industrial inputs. Trump has raised tariffs on metals, which makes building things more expensive but creates an incentive to reshore the production of steel and aluminum. This moves the industrial economy down the value chain, rather than up, which makes sense only if the objective is to have an economy with more guys wearing hard hats.

Maybe so, maybe not. She said the guy went on vacation. It could just be his vacation was previously scheduled, and she hasn't worked the phone system in a way that will find the right person.
When you're political, you often think all the answers are in politics. There isn't enough information to go on here, one way or another. Huge, if true.

PT follow up. Going to go in and tell her I didn't do the exercises. Yikes.
(I'm decluttering, and donating things to charity. Donated 2 boxes to a thrift store, then I packed up 4 boxes of books for a specific book charity. Major backache, so I didn't do the exercises. Not serious, but I need to discuss it.)

You feeling lonely?
I'm about to get ready for a doctor's, or I'd argue with you to keep you company.

YT has ratings as well. He generates income for people posting those vids. That's the one thing you can say about him.
I'm doing the "pay attention to what he does, not what he says" thing.

A lot of people hate watch him. I just turn the channel. I'm not boosting his ratings.

I think his life is under threat.
And all because some ICE agent was wrong the last time they investigated him and doesn't want to admit it. IMO, this was a revenge deportation because the courts decided there wasn't any proof he was a member of the gang but the cop was convinced he was.
(I don't watch Trump as a rule. I don't find him entertaining in any way, shape or form.)
