@MadelaineLucyH @CodeRecce It may be the way she worded it--"a direct descendant of Henry VII and Lady Mary Boleyn" rather than "a direct descendant of Henry VII and of Lady Mary Boleyn."

@shootercrabiel @neonnette And if you charge a nominal cake cutting fee, you bring in some revenue while saving materials and labor. Say they charge a flat $25 for a task that takes five minutes. It's faster and cheaper than preparing eight different menu desserts and frees the kitchen for other service.

@Alyssa_Everett @neonnette As a restaurant owner you dont just price items based on the cost of the item. But you also add in overhead costs. To divide it out you estimate how many people order apps/desserts etc. If someone brings their own food, you have lost revenue

Cake cutting fees are standard fare at nice restaurants. When I worked as a pastry chef, we charged $16/person, which was the price of our cheapest dessert. You get to bring your cake in, the restaurant doesn’t lose money on dessert (and they cut and plate it for you, too).

A restaurant has responded after charging an influencer a $110 cake cutting fee Poza rooftop restaurant in Los Angeles apologized for not making justinelovesushi aware of the fee prior and offered a refund

@shootercrabiel @neonnette Is it, though? They're not taking 8 different dessert orders, or catering to special dietary preferences. They're carrying out identical slices of pre-plated cake. I'm all for a nominal cake cutting fee, say a flat $25, but not the full price per person of a menu offering.

@shootercrabiel @neonnette And saved cost is a revenue. The restaurant isn't contributing any ingredients or expending any labor to bake and decorate the cake, so charging the full price of a dessert is price-gouging.

CBS played footage of Walter Cronkite tonight in its evening newscast, hoping, I suspect, to remind viewers of its golden age. Unfortunately, it only emphasized all the recent downsizing and government bootlicking the network has done under Paramount Skydance and Bari Weiss.

@KathleenWoodnys @NYCMayor @ZohranKMamdani Why do you expect a response from the mayor of NYC, when the shooting happened in DC? The White House lockdown has been lifted, so it appears there's no broader threat, and news of what is happening in the country ordinarily comes from the media, not mayors across the nation.

Multiple shots reportedly fired near the White House is a SERIOUS national security issue, regardless of the final details. New Yorkers deserve to know what is happening in our country and whether any broader threat exists. Why is @NYCMayor silent? @ZohranKMamdani is not showing up when he needs to, defying his duty.
Acyn@Acyn

Fox reporting that an innocent bystander was hit when a gunman and Secret Service exchanged gunfire near the White House. Condition unknown.

@svdate There has to be a country with an intelligence agency other than Putin's SVR or Israel's Mossad that can reveal either the medical reasons behind why Trump's hand is always bruised or the specific details of the Kompromat that Putin has on Trump. I wish they would go public.

This is big joke to Trump and his cult, I understand. In Europe, this was the last straw. What made them realize that our president is out of his mind and has zero adult supervision. And that American voters are morons who cannot be trusted.

@GayBearRes It doesn't sound like you're unwilling to help them, just unwilling to move. You have a job where you are, your wife may have one as well, and your kids have friends and established schools. What's keeping your parents in Florida? If they need help, it's on them to move back.

My Boomer parents retired to Florida about 10 years ago. Sure enough my parents’ health is declining. Instead of moving back to the house they never sold, their solution is that I uproot my wife and kids and move to Florida. Why are they like this? 1/2

Sen. Kennedy: Is Russia our friend? Gen. Smith: Sir, they're not. Sen. Kennedy: Between Ukraine and Russia, who do we want to win that war? Gen. Smith: Obviously, we want Ukraine to stand independently and not be consumed by Russia. Sen. Kennedy: When Putin went into Ukraine, he thought he was going to roll in and take it over in two days like thunder on a summer night, didn't he? Gen. Smith: I believe he did. Sen. Kennedy: But Ukrainian people have fought back, haven't they? Gen. Smith: Yes, sir, they've fought back. Sen. Kennedy: And they now have some of the most sophisticated drone technology in the history of the world, don't they? Gen. Smith: Sir, they do. They're doing very well with drones. Sen. Kennedy: And with limited resources they have, they're giving Russia curb-stomping, aren't they? Gen. Smith: I would say they are. Sen. Kennedy: In fact, with their limited resources, they've knocked out 40% of Russia's oil export capacity. Since January, using their drones and limited cruise missiles, they've hit oil and gas facilities within Russia over 100 times. Not on the border, within Russia. Right? Gen. Smith: Yes, sir. Sen. Kennedy: And Putin was so scared, he almost had to cancel Russia's military parade, didn't he? Gen. Smith: I will take your word for that, sir. Sen. Kennedy: Okay.

@jgmonte922 It’s absolutely not too late. We are in the darkness, but it doesn’t have to be the darkness of the tomb it can be the darkness of the womb. What’s happening may be the end, or it could be the beginning if we press hard enough.

I’ve become convinced that every plan to save the Democratic Party will fail because the great project for the Party is not to revive itself but to restore America.

@Anokataxs @JBTalksDC Yes, I misstated the case with "every other poll." I meant the polls specifically used by Race to the White House for their trend line--look at the line, above. And talk about selective bias...! You can't ignore swing state polls just because they don't fit your narrative.

@Alyssa_Everett @JBTalksDC She has literally outperformed him in the last three democratic primary polls. No one cares what a poll against JD in Winsconsin says at this point. If this is his coalition he ain’t gonna ever make into a general anws

The 2028 primary pool so far is a big 3 of Harris, Newsom, and AOC but Ossoff can really make a push if Bottoms wins the Gov in Georgia. Her race is lowkey one of the most important of the entire midterm.

@newenhuyse @JamesTate121 America IS ready, and folks who don't think so need to update their thinking. Not only was support for marriage equality one of the fastest-evolving trends of recent decades, but a majority of Americans, *including a majority of Christians*, are now accepting of homosexuality.

@JamesTate121 All these “America isn’t ready…” posts. Why has he been one of the frontrunners throughout the pre-primary? Why does he have the highest favorables of any current politician? A recent poll from Wisconsin shows him leading there. If you like him… vote for him!

@Anokataxs @JBTalksDC As you can see from the trend line, she got a bump from one outlier (May 12 AtlasIntel), but Pete has outperformed her in literally every other poll. She is a contender, but Pete is every bit as much one as she is, and should be included in your "primary pool so far."

@Anokataxs @JBTalksDC You must not follow the polls that closely. Pete outperforms AOC in the swing states of New Hampshire, Michigan and Wisconsin, to name three states. (The graphic with no state name is a May 18 Wisconsin TPS poll.)
