Just some casual news headlines and captions:
Ms. Rachel doubles down on support for children in Gaza “It’s sad that people try to make it controversial when you speak out for children that are facing immeasurable suffering,” the YouTube educator said in a recent interview with Zeteo.
Kids’ YouTube star ‘Ms. Rachel’ defends her Gaza comments in talk with anti-Israel reporter “Her increasingly politicized online presence should concern parents. Ms. Rachel has a moral compass — but it only points leftward,” New York Post columnist Bethany Mandel wrote.
Why Tot Celebrity Ms. Rachel Waded Into the Gaza Debate Facing criticism, Rachel Accurso defends making the plight of children in Gaza a primary focus on her social media feeds.
There should only be 12 jurors (maybe you've already done this). People should have to wait in a queue to join a jury of 12. Once you have 12 you all vote within 30 seconds. Everyone should see the results. If a jury is a hung jury, it ends up back in the queue. Majority wins. Users can only appeal once.
Basically it should mimic jury duty a little more closely. Right now, it just feels like you're doing a survey.
Totally agree. Plastic is useful. It's great for medical, sterilized, environments. It's great for emergencies. It's terrible for almost everything else.
If you'd like to read a relevant anecdote about plastics, please continue:
I'm currently struggling with the plastic industry on my keyboards right now. I have a 2016 Macbook Pro, but the scissor mechanism on my key broke on the board (not the key). In order to replace the keyboard, I'd have to spend $200-$400 on it. So, it's basically only good for recycling for parts now since the value of the Macbook Pro 2016 is basically the cost of the keyboard replacement. Someday, I might use it for just the hardware (e.g., on a docking station), but I want a laptop for - you know - walking around.
Instead, I "rescued" a Lenovo Thinkpad from eBay for $60. Unfortunately, the scissor mechanism on the same key broke last night. I got the laptop yesterday afternoon! But at least I can replace the whole keyboard myself for $30 so I guess I'll have a working laptop by Saturday night. Assuming no other plastic things break.
Anyways, my point is that plastic - especially plastic with a short lifetime - sucks. They should just use teeny metal bits for the scissor mechanism. Give my laptop keyboards some umph and durability. Stop building things that inevitable (apparently) will break!

Yup. Much like Mr. Rogers who put his feet in a kiddie pool with a black man (I believe it was the mail man). Children's programming has always been empathetic and inclusive.
