Can you link to a source?

I saw no confirmation in that document that Platner was actually rejected for this tattoo or that he understood it to be the reason if so.

(I believe this story to be plausible because this guy is generally sus but where's actual proof?)

Girl Who Is Going To Be Ok The storm

Few people outside of Nashville know how bad the ice storm was that hit us in late January. Over 200,000 homes lost power, and not just lost power, but lost power for over a week during freezing temps. Here is my story of the storm.

The problem is not all tooling / models are created equally and most people are currently stuck with bad tooling.

When you use something like claude code or opencode with a cutting edge model, you can get it to do all kinds of stuff, but these more powerful tools also have longer learning curves.

This hypothesis is considered weak by mainstream longevity experts, such as French gerontologist Jean-Marie Robine,[30] who pointed out that during his research, Calment had correctly answered questions about things that her daughter could not have known first-hand.[31][32] Robine also dismissed the idea that the residents of Arles could have been duped by the switch.[32][25] Another doctor who had helped verify Calment's records said that the team had considered the identity-switch hypothesis while Calment was still alive because she looked younger than her daughter in photographs, but similar discrepancies in the rates of aging are commonly found in families with centenarian members.[7]

Some people ascribe the theory you espouse but it's not the dominant position.

As usual, Wikipedia to the rescue...

I want to address our community directly.

The BE Hive is a mission driven business. We care deeply about making the world a better place and providing a safe and inclusive space for our employees while doing it. We built our business from the ground up through being part of the community, making great food that changes minds and supports sustainable missions, and taking care of our team. Absolutely nothing about that has changed.

On Monday, after a difficult conversation with my accountants the week before, I made the extremely hard decision to lay off staff on our production team. I did not want to do this. I did not feel good about this. Letting people go is never easy.

I made these decisions to survive another day, protect the 40+ people still employed by the company, and continue executing the mission of diverting dollars away from industrialized animal agriculture. It is that simple.

Companywide, we offer fair wages, health benefit options that the company contributes to, PTO, flexibility for touring musicians, free meals, opportunities to grow within the organization, and cash advance options on paychecks when they're in need of a lending hand. Some people have been on my team for up to 8 years.

Running a business is hard. Running a vegan business in today's economy is nearly impossible. This is our unfortunate reality, and I am determined to support the employees that have helped me build this organization.

I have poured my heart and soul into this business. The BE Hive employees are the backbone of this company, and I have always done everything in my power to treat them with the fairness and respect they deserve. Letting go some team members to save our company and many of our teams' jobs was a tough decision, but a necessary one.

I know folks are disappointed in this economic decision to save the business. I also know many more folks would be disappointed if as a leader I was unable to make this decision and we ultimately lost the entire business.

I totally agree on @janetmillsforme.bsky.social being better (for many reasons) but I'm not taking that post at face value either.

A policy existing does not mean it was applied consistently. Plausible deniability seems intact to me (although I don't trust the guy).

Do you have a source for the claim that he knew and was rejected specifically for this policy?

You link to the policy, but I don't see a source that Platner knew about it, nor that it was the reason for barring him from active duty.

(I hate Nazi tattoo guy but want the facts straight)

Collage of the top three: Black-and-white profile portrait of a woman with short wavy hair, wearing a light-collared dress. Black-and-white portrait of a young woman in traditional Japanese attire, facing forward. Black-and-white portrait of a young woman with hair pinned back, wearing a dark dress with decorative trim.

Here's a question for you: Why do you think the oldest people in history are overwhelmingly women?

On average, the 100 oldest women have lived several years longer than the 100 oldest men. See the patterns yourself (and consider what longevity really means)β€―βž‘οΈβ€―w.wiki/DrAK

Anthropic has much more in common with the Department of War than we have differences. We both are committed to advancing US national security and defending the American people, and agree on the urgency of applying AI across the government. All our future decisions will flow from that shared premise.

Happy #AardvarkWeek to the queen of the castle, Tilli! πŸ‘‘πŸ°
Tilli’s care team built her a cardboard castle, and she wasted no time putting that adorable sniffer to work. Watch as our 20-year-old aardvark explores her castle and slurps up mealworms and snacks with her long, sticky tongue.

Why was this quirky sentence used to test fonts, cursive skills, Cold War hotlines, and typewriters? It's a pangram – a sentence that uses every letter of the English alphabet.

Screenshot of a font viewer displaying Bitstream Vera Sans in various sizes using the phrase "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."

LOL this combined with the already extant sales tax cap would destroy the ability for growing cities in TN to fund anything (which is presumably the point)

So in your conception, being married to somebody from one group implies that the spouse is unable to hate others in the same group?

Congrats Ryan, I think you just solved misogyny.

I'm not convinced he's a Nazi antisemite, although he certainly could be, and I don't consider his personal relationships proof of anything.

I am however convinced that if he wasn't a Nazi sympathizer he was at least a dumbass, for being unable to figure out he had a Nazi tattoo for so long.

A few days later, Sadler called Cunningham. He said in a recent interview that he wasn’t yet considering a run for the District 106 seat. But Sadler, who’s been active in the Rev. William Barber II’s β€œMoral Mondays” protests and other progressive causes, said he’d heard from colleagues of his in the Poor People’s Campaign that Cunningham was thinking about joining Republicans to override Stein’s veto.

Rev Sadler is from Rev Barber's Moral Monday / PPC movement, and getting people from the faith-based left elected in NC (or the rest of the south) is huge.

IMO any path to power for the left in the US requires appealing to people of faith on moral grounds.

Berger actually losing would be a huge shakeup for Republican power brokers and could throw the party into disarray, but I worry whoever might succeed him in the modern Republican party would be even more disastrous.

The big news for NC is that three MAGA-friendly Democrats in the state legislature got primaried, so Stein's veto should finally have real teeth and the R supermajority should be really dead (even absent party flips)
