Nah, it’s your sanctimoniousness that earned you your downvotes. Had you just said, “Try oat milk, it lasts longer without spoiling” or something like that, people would be more likely to respond positively than when you roll in just judging people. Prick.
The Guardian isn’t exactly a fly by night news org, and if you were to just search “Sarah Shaw detained ICE” you would find news articles from many sources.
Clearly you are using the 10th best ad blocker.
To be replaced by “Harold Whiteman”, a dapper man of Nordic ancestry, who helped white slaves escape from white slavery with the help of the friendly neighborhood watch organization, the KKK!
That’s amazing! I’ve got the same combination on my luggage!
The article doesn’t mention his party, but yes, he was a republican.
Ok? I never said she committed no crime. In fact, I specifically did say it was a trafficking case. And she served 2 1/2 years in prison for it, thereby paying her debt to society. So what’s your point?
I didn’t say you were a right wing nutjob, I said that making such ridiculous leaps in logic make you sound like one. I agree, this is Lemmy, so the chances of you actually being full right wing are pretty slim. Though seeing the term “Marijuana-related charges” and being like, well, it could be simple possession, or they could’ve beaten someone half to death for smoking their weed is the type of leap that nutjobs make.
I am simply making a point that we don’t know what the “marijuana-related charge” is.
If you really wanted to know more about the charges, you could’ve googled for 2 seconds and found the same article I did. Instead you just put out into the world that, well, maybe she beat someone half to death. Again, that’s battery.
I am simply making a point that we don’t know what the “marijuana-related charge” is.
Is basically the same line of thinking conspiracy theorists use when they say something ridiculous and then say they’re “just asking questions.” Especially if you’re using that line as a defense against pushback when you suggest that those marijuana related charges may have involved violence.
I’m not saying all this to attack you. I’m saying it so that next time you come across an article that you feel lacks some critical information, maybe you’ll look into it further rather than just suggest that the person said article is about is actually some sort of monster.
That story has a bit more info about the marijuana related charges. Not a ton, but it does have:
"A longtime Milwaukee resident, Yang worked as a nail technician and a receptionist at nail salons before the COVID-19 pandemic. She was earning a living for her children, who range in age from 6 to 22. Her partner, Bub, is disabled: he has had two brain surgeries, is partially paralyzed and suffers from memory loss.
During the pandemic, the family moved into a house that prosecutors say was part of a marijuana trafficking operation.
Yang was among 26 people indicted in a sweeping federal case in 2020. It alleged Yang helped count and package cash that was mailed to marijuana suppliers in California. Prosecutors found bags of cash taped between pages of magazines, according to a complaint."
So it was a trafficking case. Weed was being shipped from Cali, where it’s legal, to Wisconsin, where it’s not, and they were mailing back cash to pay for the weed. To me it just sounds like she was trying to take care of her family and disabled partner during a difficult time.
Also, “Marijuana-related charges” is never going to mean “beating someone half dead because they smoked your weed.” That’s just battery. Even guessing that that is code for some violent crime makes you sound like a right wing nutjob making huge mental leaps to justify how horribly this woman was treated by the govt as a good thing.

Aldi did the same thing this boycott of Target is about. So no, not Aldi first.
you’re supposed the pronounce it “Tar-jay”
Lmao, no you’re not, that’s just something people started doing to literally make fun of the “Walmart but fancy” image they cultivated for themselves.
The literal rest of my life will be spent trying to fuck over America and Americans.
As an American, I’d just like to say we absolutely deserve this.
“Within the next two years, it will be completely normalized to have a relationship with an A.I.,” Ms. Cole predicted.
We haven’t managed to really normalize anything outside of cis-hetero relationships yet and you’re telling me we’re gonna normalize relationships with a.i. in two years? Sure.
Coming up on 2 years with nothing memorable.
This implies Baldur’s Gate 3 (8/3/23) was not memorable, and I take issue with that.
The Boys, Fallout, Invincible, Good Omens. These were all good shows, though the Boys is kinda wearing thin and I’m glad it’s ending next season.
Haven’t seen em, but Jack Ryan, Reacher, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, The Marvelous Ms. Maisel…all these seem to have done extremely well and been popular.
Sure they have their absolute disasters like the Rings of Power too, but it’s not like they’re on the same level of quality as like the freevee’s and roku original shows.
Death of the Endless is in both, played by same actress. Despair also shows up in Dead Boy, but I can’t remember if she showed up in season 1 Sandman. But generally I think they were only meant to be tangentially linked, so you didn’t have to watch one to enjoy the other.
Are these products available in states without legal marijuana? Just confused as to what this really affects, as THC is already illegal federally. Are states with legal weed suddenly not going to sell gummies? Seems unlikely, as they’re already violating the federal law just selling weed to begin with.
