Some doofus probally left the door propped open with a old key badge blocking the bolt so he could not have to take the keys out of his pocket.

iirc, it was not a person elevator, but an equipment one. He was also not a tesla employee, but a contractor. He reported racist bullshit from both tesla and his employer. His employer took corrective action. Tesla, well, they're paying $130m because they don't fix racism problems when they arise - they exacerbate them. This guy is lucky because he somehow was able to avoid the arbitration agreement.

Like the wire that makes a complete loop around Manhattan so observant jews can be outside after sundown on the sabbath but are still technically "inside".

It's someone's job to go around daily and check that line for breaks, too. J&J is asking the FDA for booster authorization today, apparently.

The advisory panel's meeting on the 14th/15th for Moderna / J&J boosters, then the 26th for Pfizer's Age 5-11 EUA. Approvals probably a week after each meeting. There's talk that the Moderna booster is going to be a half dose, which I'm sure as hell not complaining about and want in my arm immediately. OPM memo just released too, all feds have to be vaccinated by November 22nd, which means mRNA deadlines are October 11th/18th to get started, or a J&J on November 8th. Going to be an epic shitshow if the debt ceiling doesn't kill us all first.

Platystemon posted:Was the debt ceiling not kicked down the road to December? Nope, that's the continuing resolution (direction to spend money). Debt ceiling explodes on October 18th (borrowing exhausted, no money available). And right now, it's looking like there's no general way out, as McConnell isn't even taking a hostage while his caucus filibusters and doesn't allow Democrats to raise it unilaterally.

Drop the filibuster to pass debt ceiling bullshit, blame the republicans for it, then just continue on without it, and pass all the things republicans have been blocking. Unfortunately, I'd be more likely to believe the dems would default before they'd go through with it.

There are ways out, they’re just varying levels of rules‐lawyering with bad optics (platinum coin) all the way up to constitutional crisis (invoking the Fourteenth). McConnell might win this game of chicken, that’s all.
