Money is nice, but being able to speak my mind is better.
"Real talk: Daniel Rubin has a great little piece up wherein he chats with The Field Negro, the Philly-based blogger who sharply ponders all things black on a daily basis. (Seriously, if you’ve never checked in with TFN, you should: Its author, Wayne Bennett, is a fantastic read who can cut through bullshit like a hot knife through butter, which is a far grosser analogy than I wanted to make, but there you have it.)"

"To white people, Bennett's musings are like kitchen-table talk from a kitchen they may otherwise never set foot in. To African Americans, he is part of a growing army of black Internet amateurs who have taken up the work once reserved for ministers and professional activists: the work of setting a black agenda, shaping black opinion and calling attention to the state of the nation's racial affairs."

"That's why I love the blog "Field Negro" so much. Field, as he's known to his fans, has the sense of reality that it takes to call out the (CowPuckey) of blame beating by those who are in positions of power and their lackeys. Because of his handle and his unabashed way of writing about racial issues, Field is often cited as a "Black blogger." What he is, however, is a first-class detector of blame deflection and an excellent student of history. If you want to write about the past and future of repression there's really no other perspective to take - which is why everyone should read Field."

"I had no idea, for example, of the extent of the African-American blogging world out there and its collective powers of dissemination.But now, after reading thousands of anguished, thoughtful comments posted on these blogs reflecting on issues of persistent racial discrimination in the nation's schools and courtrooms, what's clear to me is that there's a new, "virtual" civil rights movement out there on the Internet that can reach more people in a few hours than all the protest marches, sit-ins and boycotts of the 1950s and 60s put together."

He and Shep Smith were the only remotely honest on-air personalities on that network, hired to give Fox just the tiniest smidgen of credibility.
But even they couldn’t cope with selling their souls every damn day and being associated with the slime Fox churns out, so now they’re gone, too.
How will Team Shit the Bed handle the Ukraine situation?? How bad can they bungle this........
“PilotX, abortion law was written to exclude judicial oversight so Newsom should be able to get the same results with the same langwidge.“
Wait, you mean like we don’t take up judicial nominations during an election year? ๐ Wingnuts operate by a different set of rules where facts, truth and consistency mean different things.
“They’d have to contort themselves into a pretzel to find any distinction between Texas passing a bounty hunter abortion law and California passing a bounty hunter gun law.“
Well that’s easy. Hey-zues likes babies and guns. Religious nut jobs always have a higher power to answer to.
Shit, I remember when Chris Wallace had his ass handed to him by Bill Clinton over who was and wasn't responsible for 9-11.
That said, he really isn't as batshit crazy or dangerous to the republic as Sean or Tucker.
Still not a real journalist, and I won't be tuning in.

Devin Nunes will now become a Trump funded propagandist for Trump instead of a taxpayer funded propagandist for Trump, that is if he gets paid by Trump.

“Hey-zues likes babies and guns”
Well, SCOTUS will have to do better than that if they want to somehow justify how some random doofus you’ve never even met having standing to sue you to punish you for owning a banned gun is totally different from some random doofus you’ve never even met having standing to sue you to punish you for carrying out an abortion.
“Jesus says so!” isn’t a legal argument.
“Jesus says so!” isn’t a legal argument.”
I agree with that sentiment but you may want to explain that to 6 out of 9 SC justices.

“The United States is a constitutional republic; we elect the people who represent us. We don't conduct plebiscites.”
Not entirely true. We do sometimes pass laws through referendums. Particularly in positively referendum-happy California, which has had at least two of them rejecting affirmative action. That’s something that should please the original poster.

Granted, there are a few instances in which citizens vote directly for a bill, but this is an expression of individual states. The Constitution provides that states may offer various options in the states regarding the conduction of elections for in some matters. But election procedures for federal offices, i.e. the president, house, and senate are delineated in the Constitution, and also provides instructions for an national referendum as one means to amend itself.
“I agree with that sentiment but you may want to explain that to 6 out of 9 SC justices.”
Nah, they know better. Even Amy Handmaid Barrett.
They may secretly decide cases based on “Jesus says,” but they know better than to write opinions that explicitly say “Jesus says,” because that would be a flagrant 1st Amendment violation.
So will we lose Roe v Wade, the Second Amendment, _and_ judicial oversight?
And will the next step be a drug war over the abortion pill? We know how well drug wars work.
Anonymoid 4:15 keeps using the word "Communist". I do not think that that word means what anonymoid thinks it means.
Well, the FDA just removed the in person regulation for it today, so the first round to our side? It will only help in blue states where it's already not much of a problem, but any little bit of reproductive sanity is appreciated.

Shot peening is utilized to complete metal parts that require expanded wear and exhaustion properties. All the while, shot besieges the metal part, making little dimples in the surface. The dimples cause pressure stresses in the outer layer of the part, expanding the metal’s protection from breaks, weariness, and erosion.
We are Sand Blasting Machine is a way of smoothing and cleaning a hard surface by forcing solid particles on the surface of the workpiece at high speeds by using compressed air from the air compressor. With aggressive blasting, the sand moved against a surface. With shot blasting machine on the other hand, steel shots or glass beads are propelled or moved against a texture. The beads are often made of stainless steel shots, copper slag, aluminum
