I would also throw in that Trump was a bit like Brexit. Lots of people just laughed that it would even happen so didn't take it seriously (vote).

I remember Trump calling himself Mr. Brexit in a speech, a day or two after the UK voted to leave

I think my one friend also wants to go to the capybara cafe and maybe some famous landmarks or whatever? I wasn't paying attention at that point, I was too focused on SHODAI.

Yeah, we went through the service that handles that. Only one of us actually speaks more than tourist phrasebook level Japanese, so we pretty much had to. It's going to be an interesting trip. I'll spam pictures in the sumo thread.

And don't talk poo poo about my boy shodai. or do, I guess. He's probably busy reading manga or something instead of warming up so you're probably fine.

edit: The only japanese speaker is also one of the fed essential employees, and if the shutdown had proceeded as planned he would have had to fly back pretty much immediately after arriving. loving republicans.

Amos Miller’s state court date about raw milk issues is tomorrow

By Dan Flynn on February 28, 2024
Amos Miller makes his first state court appearance tomorrow since the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture searched his farm under a court-issued warrant.

Miller, who claimed so-called “Sovereign Citizen” status as a defense in federal court, must appear at 1:30 p.m. on Feb. 29 before Judge Thomas B. Sponaugle in Pennsylvania’s Lancaster County Court of Common Pleas in Pennsylvania.

The civil action, brought by Attorney General Michelle Henry, is for Miller to sell raw and raw milk products outside the State of Pennsylvania, all without acquiring the necessary licenses and permits.

Miller’s long run in federal court, dating back to 2016, resulted in him and his attorney signing a lengthy Consent Decree, promising to complete food safety regulations governed by the USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service.

Miller’s supporters depicted the Jan. 4 search of Miller’s Organic Farm as a “raid.” It brought Miller even more celebrity than his long tiff with USDA. Since Jan. 4, he has raised about $245,000 in web-based fundraising.

Several national Republicans have also depicted Miller as a victim of government overreach. However, it should be noted that the federal action occurred under both the Trump and Biden administrations.

Before tomorrow’s state court appearance, Miller was ordered to refrain from selling unpasteurized, raw milk or raw milk products. Pennsylvania agricultural officials say they are just trying to persuade Miller to follow the state food safety regulations that the state’s other farmers do so willingly. Miller says on his farm’s website, “It breaks our hearts that the state of Pennsylvania is forcing us to turn so many of you away when you beg us for the food you depend on for your health.”

Miller says the injunction “will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars with multiple attorneys and legal researchers.”

Tomorrow’s hearing will tell whether the current temporary injunction will be made permanent, which Miller’s attorney claims is the state’s goal. Whether food seized from Miller on Jan. 4 was linked to human illnesses in Michigan and New York State should also be made clear.

Illness investigations in those states triggered the search warrant on Miller’s farm.

Under no circumstances do I want the congressional makeup of tyool 2024 to have anything whatsoever to do with writing a constitution for the United States

Can you even imagine how bad it would be to have Mike johnson and Matt Gaetz giving input on the new constitution

Russian troll farms were a deluge of bullshit in social media, and Putin's money was everywhere. There was still some effect in 2020, but in 2024 (except for the :lol::lmao: Russian hack of the Fani Willis case) neither of these things is true.

Plus a lot of the people blasting PMURT stuff are literally dead from COVID

Literally the same week Ukraine made those huge advances around Karkiv, all the Facebook trolls stopped. Remember all the accounts with names like "Lone Star Cattleman" posting memes that were disparaging renewable energy and Millennials? The Russian bots, presumably operating out of eastern Ukraine, were just assholes on a psy-op mission to turn the rest of the world into miserable assholes.
