Well, in addition to his attempt to ban milfepristone, he also ruled that the Biden administration could not enact protections for transgender employees.

Why? Well, sure, Title VII protects transgender individuals from discrimination, but that doesn't mean it protects any of their conduct, actions, or anything else. So you can't fire someone for being trans, but the moment they "act" trans, present as the opposite gender, ask for you to use their pronouns, etc., it's completely different and they totally can be fired.

He's constantly choosing to selectively ignore parts of the legal code so it fits his view better. He believes he has the power to redefine words - once demanding that the lawyers on both sides use the term "unborn baby" instead of "fetus" because he says fetus is a made-up word and a liberal plot.

He also tried to overturn the ACA... In 2022.

Unlike every other judicial district in America, Northern Texas does not assign cases to any district judge at random. Instead, they limit assignments to judges who are within the division the case was filed in.

Since he's the only judge in the Amarillo Division, you can guarantee a hyperpartison super-conservative judge if you file there.

I don't even get why sugar is added. Tomato sauce is already sweet on its own.

My wife and I like to get a local brand because it's honestly the best I've ever had. Each serving (3oz, 85g) is 15 calories.

It's called sanewashing. Stop trying to interpret what he says. Just print the direct quote.

They'd get the same tax deduction by disposing of the drinks.

I don't think there's a single state in the US that allows you to make food without gloves.

The only exception I've seen is when you're dealing with the ingredients before they've been cooked, like with pizzas.

That's why they fly upwards into international space first, duh.

They opened up a MC by me about a year ago.

I was returning an item last weekend and the employee made a comment on how many times I've been there haha.

It's not worth the effort and testing. People would only experience it once every 3-4 years, depending on when they get a new laptop. Must still shouldn't have to worry since other software would install that version of .NET already.

Plus, people don't bother to read error messages anyways. Another tool I created would create PDFs of the financials. The first section would be pulled from the EPM and the second would be a data dump of every transaction for each cost center. If the totals don't match to the dollar, the script would throw an error.

90% of the time, it was because the EPM data was being refreshed as it's scheduled to do so every half hour and takes 3-4 minutes. So I had the error message tell the person to just go take a quick break and come back. Still, people would email me saying they don't understand why they're getting the error and it would always be fixed if they just wait.

I don't even work in IT but I make complex Excel tools for my Finance team.

I get an email about once every week or two from one of my coworkers asking what to do about an issue. Nearly every single issue would have been resolved if they just read even the first few instructions.

My favorite is a specific tool we use to review the financials. It relies on Scripting.Dictionary which is only present in .NET 3.5.1 or prior. The very first instruction on the file says you need to download it. There's even a very handy button right there which will take you to our software center to install it.

Yet every single time someone gets a new laptop, they immediately assume that the file is broken.
