Moreover, if the districts were wrongly drawn up in 2021, and will be corrected for 2024, does that mean every piece of legislation passed in 2022 by said wrongly placed legislators be re-voted on in the state house and senate by newly elected members? Cmon, if,you’re gonna force a do-over, let’s do...

It’s been said without the districts drawn the way they were , state Dems would not have won the state house and senate in 2022. So, now the request is to go back to racially gerrymandered districts. Does this put the Dem majorities at stake in the 2024 elections? We all need to understand both side...

Well, in 2023 we learned from Van Jones on CNN (repeated by many others) black law enforcement officers can be racist against black drivers Opinion: The police who killed Tyre Nichols were Black. But they might still have been driven by racism https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/27/opinions/tyre-nichols-mem...

I found studies such as this yielding data such as this very interesting (I do not know how to post pictures, any pointers?) thanks

Asians (that term by itself way too over-encompassing) are considered “white-adjacent” We Need to Talk About What It Means to Be ‘White-Adjacent’ in Tech https://medium.com/projectinclude/we-need-to-talk-about-what-it-means-to-be-white-adjacent-in-tech-f91fbcce7a42 Are Asian Americans White?

I didn’t see middle eastern people listed under “white” in that chart. Maybe I missed something. I do recall George Zimmerman being labeled a “white hispanic” back during 2012 and the trial where he was charged with murder of Trayvon martin. And here from NPR a term “multi-racial whiteness” came abo...

Google, android and other apps have been caught tracking your phone location even when you turned that off. Facebook has been famous for writing apps for companies, in exchange for the data. So even if you don’t have Facebook on your phone, any apps that are on your phone are making money sharing th...

You’ve may already have been sharing your driving habits with Progressive and Allstate and any company that gives you a safe driving discount , who back in the old days gave you a plug-in device, now they ask you to install an app on your phone (State Farm).

Some countries in EU are banning various hormone treatments and gender changing surgeries for kids and young people. Many ways we admire the EU on many things, like their treatment of consumer data privacy. Many here think kids with rapid onset gender dysphoria should be allowed to have trans surger...

Thanks for the anchor info. Makes sense. Question : when Biden promises the bridge will be rebuilt with federal money, I assume our effective federal govt firstly, or subsequently , will go after the shipping company who I assume would have insurance to cover the costs. Don’t stick the federal taxpa...

Supossedly all lights went off on the ship prior to crashing into the bridge. Lost all power.

Question on TV : “why didn’t they immediately drop all four anchors?”
Maybe due to no power.

Hope the authorities get to the bottom of this.

I was thinking also “where are the precedent cases to justify NY AG office indictments”

Here is what I found

I don’t closely follow these things, but could they be mixing up east and west teams for maximum tv ratings and time periods and time zones across the different networks covering the tournaments?

Remember the Edsel? Pushbutton shift is not new. Edsel was before my time. I understand some 60s Chrysler’s had push button transmission selectors. In the 50s and 60s peoples brains worked more. Not relying on tech to do it all for you keeps your brain on top of things. Reading maps, etc. some peop...
