The Onion got new owners earlier this year, and they seem serious about making it a sharp and relevant publication
Loved that show.
In a similar vein, I'm curious about the modern consensus on "you guys," as in, "what do you guys want to do this weekend?"
Let's kick it up a notch and get Raytheon working on a helmet-mounted Phalanx that fires .22LR. The old farts at the trap & skeet range are gonna be in for a surprise when I show up with that bad boy.
Load it with Dragon's Breath shells and add a manual trigger, and it becomes the latest craze for New Year's parties!
Or result in US businesses moving their trade dollars from tariff-affectrd countries to others that could really use the money, like Mexico or Central America.
How large a flag are you flying? Simple window mount flag holders should work for flags up to about 18" x 12". For a bigger flag, if you have a trailer hitch installed you can get hitch mounted flag pole holders.
Nice flag, btw.
Yes, voters choose the candidate when they participate in the primary. But before the primary ever happens there's a lot that goes on in terms of determining who will run in the primary, and what resources they have to run a viable campaign.
Political junkies talk about the “invisible primary,” which Vox’s Andrew Prokop, in an excellent overview, describes as “the attempts by important elements of each major party — mainly elites and interest groups — to anoint a presidential nominee before the voting even begins. ... These insider deliberations take place in private conversations with each other and with the potential candidates, and eventually in public declarations of who they’re choosing to endorse, donate to, or work for.”
Clinton dominated this invisible primary: She locked up the endorsements, the staff, and the funders early. All the way back in 2013, every female Democratic senator — including Warren — signed a letter urging Clinton to run for president. As FiveThirtyEight’s endorsement tracker showed, Clinton even outperformed past vice presidents, like Al Gore, in rolling up party support before the primaries.
Not only did the DNC go out of its way to steer resources toward Clinton, there were leaked emails wherein party officials were brainstorming ways to undermine the Sanders campaign with negative messaging.
Using the default lemmy-ui you first have to find a post or comment that the user made in your community. Then you should be able to use the pop-up menu for that post/comment to unban them. It may be helpful to go to the user's profile and search for a relevant post or comment there.
If you are comfortable using the API directly, you can send a POST request using a tool like curl or a browser plugin like RESTED. The site below provides a reference for formatting Lemmy API requests. Set ban=false. It's a pain, though; you first need to get the community_id, person_id, and your session authentication cookie as inputs.

Delaware elected Sarah McBride, who is the first open transgender representative in Congress.
Georgia district attorney Fani Willis, who has been trying to prosecute Trump for trying to overturn the 2020 election, won reelection.
Washington Congressman Dan Newhouse, one of the ten Republicans who voted to impeach Trump (and one of two in that group who survived the subsequent midterm elections), successfully defended his seat again against a Trump-endorsed opponent. That's at least one Republican in the House who doesn't always rubber-stamp the party agenda.
Has anyone else bought a durian fruit even after being warned about it? Talk about acquired tastes...

People have certainly left the country at some of these sites. But they are (almost) always brought back so it isn't a great escape route.
