Thomas county GA voted 61% trump in 2024

Imagine the surprise among Thomasville’s City Fathers when they learned that nearly $20 million in federal grantsfora new health clinic, upgrades to the city’s wastewater system and other community work were deemed too “woke” to merit Washington’s help.

The leopards are feasting!

We’ve all been there.

Ouch, that’s got to sting!

Gold. It’s a real asset that does really well when the dollar does poorly. In addition, it’s a safe haven for geopolitical risk, which is growing.

Thank you!

I’ve got a great business idea: I’ll collect a few million dollars worth of nickels and sell them back to the government for 10 cents each. That’s about a 28% discount to the manufacturing cost, and I’ll double my money. Win-win!

Thank you so much!

Actually maybe that changed because I found a comment from Mastodon and it looks normal just with a domain that you can see is a mastodon instance when you visit it, so idk ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Could you please link to the example comment referenced? I want to check it out. Thanks.

That may be the case, but Powell’s term as chair ends in May of 2026, and I guarantee Trump will only appoint a lackey that will do whatever Trump wants. The end of the dollar is coming faster than you think.

Thank you so much for taking the time to explain this. So if I post a meme to c/tenforward, people on mastodon and pixelfed can see it if they subscribe to @tenforward, is that correct? How can I tell if a post I’m seeing on lemmy originated on mastodon, pixelfed, etc.? For example, this post about unclogging a toilet. I can see that it was posted by [email protected]. I assumed that the “@sh.itjust.works” part just pertained to the instance of lemmy the post originated from. If this post had come from mastodon, would there be more info somewhere from which I can tell the origin? Thanks.

Thank you for posting this, as I am fairly new to Lemmy and this article hits an issue I have a question about:

Post a video on PeerTube? It can show up on Mastodon. That’s like uploading a YouTube video and your Twitter followers seeing it automatically without you having to repost and clunkily embed it.

So they’ve said that a post on one federated app “can” show up on show up on another. Does that mean that it always does? Is there anything you have to do have your content appear on other platforms? If I make a text post here on lemmy, how can it appear on something like peertube or pixelfed? That doesn’t make sense to me. Can someone please enlighten me?

They’re reformulate it and call it something new. They’ll still sell amlodipine for blood pressure.

This is really interesting. As I was reading the article I was wondering how they were going to wring money out of it, as amlodipine is off patent. Then I got to this part:

“While amlodipine shows promise in preclinical models, it is not currently suitable for use in ADHD in its marketed form,” Karlsson noted. “Further optimization through chemical modification is necessary to enhance CNS selectivity and ensure a favorable therapeutic index in the context of ADHD.”

Classic big pharma. Slightly tweak an existing drug in an insignificant way so that you can get a new patent on it and charge exorbitant prices.

Surprisingly, she’s turned out to be principled and cares about the rule of law. I can see why Trump regrets appointing her.

I’m sorry, I didn’t word that very well. Someone made a joke something like “what were they going to do when they catch her, handcuff the baby?”

I’m with you. I’ve been a redditor for more than a decade, and I’ve really been disappointed with it’s decline. It’s gotten much worse lately. Not only is reddit clamping down on speech, more people there are just assholes now. Yesterday I made a comment on a thread about cops chasing a graduate that had brought a baby on stage. In response to a comment about the cops handcuffing the baby, I suggested that they would probably punch the baby in the face while yelling “stop resisting!” Obviously a joke and clearly not advocating violence, but my comment was deleted and my entire reddit account was suspended for 3 days. Jokes on them, as I’m not interested in going back.

Edit:

I didn’t word this well. Someone made a joke something like “what were they going to do when they catch her, handcuff the baby?” No babies were actually harmed.

Thomas and Alito would be fine with a fascist dictatorship. The rest are hit or miss.

It’s also likely to lead to a debt crisis that will make the 2008 financial crisis look quaint. Moodys downgraded the US credit rating for a reason.

And that’s just an estimate. You know that there will be massive cost overruns.

It’s one of those things that sounds great, but requires a monumental effort to build and this administration lacks any kind of competence to make it happen.
