@FlashMobOfOne It's from ice hockey, where the players are supposed to keep their elbows down or get a penalty. An illegal check.

When all this mess began I thought everyone here knew what "elbows up" meant, too, but apparently that was just because I lived in Michigan for decades.

If anybody needs a new baby stroller or some flashlights or CAR BATTERY...now's the time. 😳

(Before May 3)

I am so exhausted of trying to prepare practically for any and all wild contingencies; it's been almost a year now and every month ramping up harder.

Alarm clocks, first aid kits, charcoal grills, umbrellas, monitors and gaming consoles, children's books. Microwaves, toasters.

These are not things I'm buying, these are items mentioned in the article as coming from China (over 90% in many cases).

"The mods of r/ChangeMyView shared the sub was the subject of a study to test the persuasiveness of LLMs & that they didn't consent.

There’s a lot that went wrong, so here’s a 🧵 unpacking it, along with some ideas for how to do research with online communities ethically."

"This miserable president has a pliable Congress and could make changes to the law but is instead just writing bullshit like 'The Civil Rights Act no longer exists' on White House stationery and calling it policy."

"One of the wilder political things in recent history is that Project 2025 publicly released a 900 page document laying out their plans to roll back 100 years of human progress and then during the campaign Republicans just said 'no we're not :)' and then they won and now they're doing it all."

"The most overwhelming thought I had at the Let's Get Ready to Do Project 2025 Conference last year was 'wow they sure are pretty open about this stuff!' and I guess they correctly assessed that the best place to hide things from Americans is in a 900 page document."

As many have been pointing out, it's the enforcement we're worried about.
