Not putting anyone on blast yet but I took my guitar to get fixed up, spent a bunch of time explaining the problems and asking if they could do specific things, and two weeks later I get it back with barely anything done. Like I just asked for a minor setup and adjustment. 😤
You know who else does this? Bicycle shops. Those guys will just do a standard service on your bike no matter what specific thing you ask for.
Sorry, I'm really annoyed and I didn't take it out on the people at the store because it wasn't their fault so you gotta hear about it. Seriously the only stuff they did to it was the stuff I could have done myself.
Hell, I could have taken off all the screws and thrown them in some Evaporust, which is more than they did. Worst part is the input electrics, which were broken and are still broken. ughhhhhhh
And man, I thought the extra week it took meant they understood that I was looking for something more substantial than just adjusting the action (which they didn't even do well. Found a buzzy fret instantly).
And I really hate being in a situation like that where you're pretty miffed about something but the people there didn't do it and the person who did isn't around to speak to. You end up with pent up frustration.

OK for the record, I cannot find any tweets at all prior to this one about Emily Wilder and Students for Justice in Palestine using her name, twitter name, the acronym SJP, or anything like that, so I don't know which conservatives tried to get her fired or where they did it.
I'll be happy to post an update on this if someone has it.
There's a Federalist article that cites a tweet by Stanford College Republicans. I guess that's where it came from:

"From the river to the sea just means equality," which is why the Palestinian Authority has the death penalty for sale of land to a Jew.
Here's an article about it from the 90s but as recently as 2019, Palestinians were getting life in prison for this. nytimes.com/1997/05/06/wor…

Tablet has been on the lab leak hypothesis essentially since the start of covid, with some good analysis and zero fears of the dismissive media consensus at the time, which relegated this theory to fringe conspiracists.

Mini thread:
April 6, 2020: "Contrary to recent reporting, science does not rule out a lab accident or even bioterrorism."

May 6, 2020: "The available circumstantial evidence indeed suggests a lab leak, with the simplest scenario being the leak of a bat coronavirus closely related to SARS-CoV-2 from cell culture or animal model experiments." tabletmag.com/sections/scien…

Getting word of two rocket hits in Jerusalem area, one striking a community building. Spreading via community WhatsApp groups. Won't say place names because it can literally help Hamas zero their sights.
Obviously considering the source this is unconfirmed, but these areas often have community boards for neighboring towns and such so word can travel quick.
Jerusalem area. Unconfirmed reports of three others:

I can't believe you guys watched SNL. Stop hanging on that carnival barker's every word. He's just a salesman.
Really bad comparison. I disliked Steve Jobs a lot, but Apple's entire design and usability ethos came from his granular control there. It noticeably changed after he died.
And yeah I know people are pissy in my replies, as they always are when I go after Musk. And you're free to be wrong about him. He started a couple of great companies but spare me the Tony Stark talk.
