Oh wow - our legal system CAN react this quickly. That’s good to know, as we watch Washington burn to a crisp while federal judges and congresspeople do… uh…

I’m saying that he is treating all of our existing laws as guidelines that you’ll have to sue him in order to reverse. Almost as if our laws matter only if you bring him to court to defend them.

Our congress is not balancing him. No formal objection or interference as far as I know, raising their own bills with horrifying implications in the meantime. But maybe it’s an optimistic view, I think maybe corporations and rights groups and foreign countries, and wronged individuals are going to be up his ass for four years. It’s the only way we can expect the judicial branch to check the lunacy.

Another GAAS bites the dust. Praise be.

“Fair Use” in media and on the internet is not a legal protection, it is a defense in court. Most cases never go to court over fair use, because the billion/trillion dollar company targeting you can afford to wait you out.

Our whole legal framework has degraded to this level, I fear. They would have to defend it I think court for it to matter - and what are the chances a college aged kid can afford to.

There are rights groups that used to be a help in these matters, but if everyone everywhere is under attack, they certainly don’t have the resources to deal with everything.

English, man.

I guess it doesn’t take very many to make the map if there are no/few other identifiable naming conventions. Fair strategy scrolling municipalities on Wikipedia - thanks for that.

The subject of the photograph is meant to be the Great Wall of China, which the name Great Firewall of China is referencing. Now tech CEOs liked what ideas the dictatorship had and want an American version. Obama is present because I believe he narrated a wonders of the world documentary, and it was just a weird choice.

This map makes zero sense. I need to see the data to understand I think. I’m unfamiliar with the apparently majority of Hawaiian cities with the name “Hawaiian” in them? In fact, there isn’t a single one to my knowledge.

And while Kansas City and Souix City or NYC all have city in the name, I’m scrolling around Georgia for instance, and there isn’t a single “______ City” in the state that I can see.

They ignored the assignment and are instead seeking out all of the progress we’ve made the last 70 years and are trying to return things to 1950. Other than inflation and cost of goods, naturally.

Republicans, always working on the things that really matter.
