A complaint filed with the Federal Election Commission alleges Donald Trump’s 2024 White House campaign and its related political committees engaged in a scheme to conceal who is being paid for much of the former president’s legal work in a possible violation of federal law.
Legal payments as in payments to lawyers not legal payments as in payments in accordance with the law.
Honestly, I don’t. Because I make them better.
That is the situation in my household. My wife is one of those people who goes overboard on the primary filling and throws the proportions off. It isn’t Katz’s deli levels but it is noticeable.
Oh, I agree. If I use a recipe regularly I’ll often convert it or if I’m creating one from scratch I’ll usually just have everything by weight from get go.
P.S. Nothing makes me annoyed at a recipe faster than seeing something like 2.5 cups of chopped broccoli.
You’re welcome. A nice resource for a bunch of other ingredients for baking is this one from King Arthur Flour.
1 tablespoon of butter is ~14 g. For a more complete conversion (with respect to butter): 1 stick = 0.5 cup = 8 tablespoons = 24 teaspoons = 113 g.
A cup in US Customary is 237 ml (often rounded to 240 ml). Americans don’t exist in a world where they have to play “is this cup US Customary or different measure also calling itself a cup measure?” as all their measuring cups are going to be in US Customary. Butter usually comes in quarter pound sticks with teaspoon (4.9 ml) and tablespoon (14.8 ml) measures printed on the wrapper so you can just cut a hunk of the appropriate volume from the stick and if you were using a measuring spoon to measure butter you’d use a level measure to create consistency and not just let it heap up.
Note: I prefer weighing ingredients and in metric at that. I’m just answering your questions.
Meijer and Walmart store brands of cheap ass white bread are 22 slices, Kroger is 21, and for a name brand example Sunbeam is 22. Nicer bread like Pepperidge Farm or Brownberry/Oroweat tends to be in the range of 16 slices per loaf (baring the thin sliced stuff) though.
Indeed. I can grab a loaf of cheap white bread from my local grocery store for under $2 which is cut into 22 slices.
I keep going back to Star Trek Online for some star ship pew pew. I usually get a month or two in going back over the story arcs and participating in events until the constant event schedule makes me realize I’m trapped in the grind and not playing any other games. So I drop it to break free and play the rest of my game library. The community isn’t something I really interact with as pretty much all of the game content is playable solo or antisocial (the team content is easy enough you can just random queue and don’t really have to talk or strategize with them). It is overwhelmingly PvE (though PvP is technically in the game) and it has some fun lore if you are a Star Trek fan.
I was so sad when I once stumbled on a limited run stout on tap and they served it ice cold in a heavy frosted mug.

But abortions don’t have to be performed in an abortion clinic- and seeing as it’s a 13 year old child that’s clearly dangerous enough to be performed in an OR.
Well, that’s beyond my field of knowledge so I’ll bow out now. Have a good one.
I would hope that people would take the time to investigate a topic that was relevant and so important but one of the problems with ignorance is that sometimes you are so ignorant you don’t know you have a blind spot. If you’ve not paid attention beyond hearing that abortion is now banned the thought, “I wonder if there is a rape exception?” may just not occur. A bit like how so many people don’t know how tax brackets work, assume they do, and never bother to look into the topic.
As far as the doctors. I looked into things a bit more and apparently Mississippi’s last abortion clinic closed down in July of 2022, which isn’t surprising given the legal situation, so the direction to Chicago by the doctor may not have been motivated by advice to avoid persecution but rather it being the nearest qualified facility. So I think we were both erroneously assuming there were in-state options that weren’t being used.
P.S. I suspect Chicago wasn’t literally the closest but probably the closest without restrictions such as requiring a separate counseling and procedure visit that creates a greater barrier than a longer drive.
Why didn’t the mom research the law and see the rape exception?
Miss. Code § 41-41-45 requires a formal charge of rape by law enforcement for the exception to be applicable. If you read on to the Time article linked at the end of the Daily Beast article the mother claims to have been unaware of the rape to begin with. Even if charges could, as a matter of procedure, be filed against a John Doe to satisfy the requirement you still have to convince law enforcement to file those charges. Just informing a doctor that the pregnancy was the result of rape is insufficient to satisfy the exception.
Now you might be thinking, “Well, Mom didn’t know but the kid knew what happened to her.” I point to this from the Time article:
Regina hadn’t yet explained to her daughter how a baby is made, because she didn’t think Ashley was old enough to understand. “They need to be kids,” Regina says. She doesn’t think Ashley even realized that what happened to her could lead to a pregnancy.
It is unsurprising that she might lack the understanding and foresight required to be her own advocate on this issue.
I’m using Liftoff but you can do it with the website too. The option shows up on the sidebar of the sub on Lemmy and on the drop down menu on Kbin (the circle with the slash).
I’ve started blocking shit posting subs. Nothing against a good shit post but it cleans up my feed without having to resort to subscribed.
What happens if, through no fault of their own, an instance that a user has been investing their time in decides to rift against the other instances?
If Lemmy.defederated gets defederated from Lemmy.world ( (or goes offline) and now you can’t participate at !coffee@lemmy.world with that account you can create a new one at Lemmy.federated and you can resume participation. If the community was !coffee@lemmy.defederated then folks can migrate to an existing community (such as one on a different instance) or recreate it on an instance that is still federated with the bulk of the network. This wouldn’t be without annoyances or difficulties but moving within the network will be easier than changing systems entirely.
In the future there could be many disconnected factions of Lemmy instances and users struggling to manage several different accounts if they want to see content across them? In that case they may also see many duplicates as people cross post across the disconnected instances?
Unless the subsections are largely of equal size I think people will migrate to the network that is larger and contains more content. I tend to see isolated networks existing only when they are significantly different in culture or content that isn’t found in the network at large and they can maintain a large enough user base to be self-sustaining. If an isolated network of 5 instances that want to be exclusively pig Latin speaking and don’t want fifthly non-pig Latin speakers federated with them is able to sustain itself with the user base interested in this: more power to them. People will either decide which network they want or they’ll have two accounts.
As far as managing those accounts, I use Liftoff and it supports multiple accounts and on a browser it is as simple as multiple bookmarks. I can have accounts on instances in a different network. So if I really love discussion about coffee in pig Latin I can easily swap accounts on the fly to get access to the latest discussions about ewingbray ethay erfectpay enchfray esspray offeecay.
