From the article:

In a rare rebuke, the Republican congresswoman has broken ranks to suggest the administration was losing its base.

“I represent the base and when I’m frustrated and upset over the direction of things, you better be clear, the base is not happy,” she wrote in a lengthy post on X.

Ms Taylor Greene, one of the loudest voices of the Maga movement, said she was “frustrated” with the direction of the administration, claiming it was not delivering promises she had campaigned on.

She said: “When you are losing MTG, you are losing the base. And Trump isn’t on the ballot in the future, so do the math on that.”

Ms Taylor Greene compared the signing of the Ukrainian minerals deal to the invasion of Iraq, and questioned why Mr Trump’s team had not pulled approvals for the Covid vaccine, which she claimed “does not stop people from catching Covid”.

She added: “I campaigned for no more foreign wars. And now we are supposedly on the verge of going to war with Iran.

“And on top of that, now we are told that we have signed a deal for mineral rights in Ukraine, in order to pay us back for the hundreds of billions of dollars that we gave Ukraine.

“Why don’t we just mine our own rare earth minerals that are tied up on federal lands that the government confiscated years ago?”

Context from the article:

The congresswoman — as part of a town hall-style event in New York City — claimed that Homan threatened to refer her to the Justice Department after she gave a “Know Your Rights with ICE” webinar to those concerned about President Donald Trump’s immigration policies.

Why not combine a good image storage service with a easy-to-search database?

I don't need this kind of thing, so I can't give great suggestions, but I've been told catbox.me is a good provider and a lot of people use Notion.

Edit: Replied to the wrong comment.

Is this bait? Or a... humblebrag? I don't know, but this post comes off to me as slightly unserious.

You've seriously never had this experience before? You've never heard of this behavior before?

You mentioned gender and posted a picture of your 'fit, which tells me that at least you think it had something to do with gender and/or your appearance.

Maybe you're being totally serious and curious, in which case... I've gotten cynical after my years on the internet.

I've always liked threadiverse, since it describes what's unique about this aspect of the Fediverse.

Something like a removable "mobile chip" for a laptop could address this problem. Framework could probably pull it off, but I don't know if the market incentives it.

We (the gaming community) say this every time, but microtransactions and lootboxes have spread like viruses because gamers are buying them.

I hate predatory pricing on principle, but whale votes count for a lot more.
