This answer is from Kagi’s search summary: I don’t know how accurate it may or may not be:
As of 2024, the specific U.S. states that only define rape as requiring penis insertion are:
These states have not updated their legal definitions of rape to include other forms of sexual penetration or oral sex, which can lead to underreporting and inadequate prosecution of sexual assault cases. It is important to note that federal law and many other states have broader definitions of rape that encompass various forms of non-consensual sexual contact.
I’ve been using a Briggs and Riley (checked bag)since 2006 for quarterly business trips (including overseas: it’s been to England, Ireland, India, France, Norway, Russia). Still going strong, nothing’s ever broken.
I think it was ~$350 when I bought it. I just looked, and the equivalent model now goes for $750. God-damn, inflation’s a bitch.
No one is. Not the American public, not anyone on the planet. Not even Trump (since he makes shit up as he goes). There is no plan. It’ll just be mass insanity, driven by an insane egomaniac.
No, not the website: the git project.
If you want a web app, try redact.dev (yes, there’s a paid version where you can download your old messages, but the free one wipes out your posts (with random text) for free.
I spent a chunk of this afternoon nuking my old reddit posts. Thousands and thousands of posts… thank goodness for shreddit.
Only 117 votes total?
If the GOP wants, they can swoop in and pay a small number of people to vote her to the top. Mind you, I don’t know that the GOP actually wants her to continue on the national stage?
I was around: it was a depressing time (and I even liked Carter):
• The Iran hostage situation was ever-present. It was nightly news, to the point that all the major broadcasts started out with “this is day #X of the hostage situation”.
• Carter tried to rescue the hostages, and failed badly - 8 servicemen died, and this was just a few months before the election.
• Carter pissed off a lot of people by boycotting the 1980 Olympics (boycotting USSR’s invasion of Afghanistan - Ironic in that the US eventually did 20 as well years later). Lots of atheletes spoke out, their only or last time to make it to the Olympics. Turning the Olympics into a political weapon left a bad taste in general.
• Inflation rates were incredibly high, I think 12%-ish.
• Housing interest was through the roof, heading towards 13% (it eventually hit 18% under Reagan, I think)
• We were in the beginnings of a severe recession.
• Carter was never very charismatic - he was smart guy, but gave pretty boring speeches (IMO)
And then you have Reagan show up… optimistic, charismatic, and people just wanted change.
