Uhhhh can the MacBooks charge via USB-C? Because I’ve been investing heavily in usb-c chargers (they are $80 and I bought 5 of them for traveling, different room etc). If they can’t be used for charging anymore I’m going to lose my shit for

I think Dave Chappelle and Joe Rogan are setting the standard for ignoring cancel culture, and are being rewarded for it. I think most moderate people are sick of cancel culture and will support those that won’t buckle to it.

Pfizer vaccine doesn’t prevent infection from delta. Vaccines prevent hospitalization. This is well documented. My friend, a doctor, was just infected by delta this week and she’s vaccinated. Getting kids vaccinated wont prevent other vacci

I am a huge Yang supporter. I donated money to his political campaign, the first time I’ve ever done that in my life. I was horrified that he ran for mayor. City politics is incredibly complex and it’s actually harder to navigate than other

Denial of an interpreter is a denial of civil rights. The only crime is that the taxpayers will pay the settlement not the police force. We should take all settlements out of the local police Union so that all cops suffer.
