I'm actually having a similar problem. I've had my pothos for maybe 6 years now, and I reported them for the first time in a long while a month ago... they're not very happy now, but I'm hoping they're just adjusting.

I have no advice but I hope yours recover!

Except those who dissented publicly, right? Pretty sure Sotomayor was pretty publicly pissed off at the rest of the court.

Plenty of time for a real progressive to do their work, right?

Yeah we as a society need to start treating primaries with respect and actually showing up to vote for those.

As soon as a progressive wins a seat, if they don't fix 100% of problems within 30 seconds, they're part of The Establishment and are dead to the movement.


Let's see if the Democrstic Party holds to their unofficial stance that this race is effectively a referendum on the party's future.

Probably. But who knows. And the fact that the only cope is "it's just a negotiating tactic" like MAGA after prices increase from tariffs is giving me a headache. What a time to be alive.

A Nato official confirmed the message’s authenticity.

I can only provide some sample articles that reference a confirmation from Rutte's office. I don't think they put out a statement or a release, I think reporters called the office and got confirmation that way. Not sure you'll be able to find a public statement.

Here's a French one that theoretically isn't bound to gobble Trumps knob.

"Congratulations and thank you for your decisive action in Iran, that was truly extraordinary and something no one else dared to do. It makes us safer," Rutte wrote in a message shared by Trump on Truth Social – and confirmed by the NATO chief's office.

I regret to inform you Rutte's office has confirmed officially. I took massive psychic damage when I discovered this was a real post of a real text not a real post of a fake text.

Of course it is, LLMs are inherently regurgitation machines - train on biased data, make biased predictions.

International "law" is a misnomer, as you've noticed... it's only enforceable at the end of a pointy stick, physical or economic. "Conventions" are a more appropriate phrase. This is indeed disappointing.

Yeah probably, he has the foresight of an infant. Doesn't mean NATO countries will respect an attempted invocation of Article 5.
