A quick definition of label:

Label: A label is a piece of information that is written or shown on a product or service to tell people where it comes from. It can be a logo, a title, or a picture that helps people recognize the product or service. Labels can be put on the packaging or container of a manufactured product, or on the packaging or surface of a natural substance. They can also be a small piece of paper attached to a legal document to hold a seal.

A more thorough explanation:

A label is a piece of writing or graphic that is put on a product or service to show where it came from. It can be a logo, title, or other marking that helps people identify the source of the item.

For example, a can of soda might have a label with the name of the brand, the flavor of the soda, and the ingredients. This helps people know what they are buying and who made it.

Labels can also be used on legal documents, like a deed or writ. In this case, a narrow slip of paper or parchment is attached to the document to hold a seal.

Overall, labels are important because they help people know what they are getting and who made it. They can also be used to make sure legal documents are authentic.

@ImpartialLion: I'm not bashing his view with regard to that the Dem's platform looked focused on the minority. My point is that Trump has zero respect for institutions, political norms, and the Constitution.

texaslawhopefully

18:39

All of which Trump has openly said

Looking forward, dems gotta improve the messaging. I think bernie did a good job of that by making the focus “the working class,” which goes beyond race or gender.

@texaslawhopefully: i dont disagree with those statements. I just think we have a lot to learn going into next election

I mean my hope is the GOP gets wiped out in the midterms and has to recentralize its message

I would say Texas is pretty nice here. I do think you got the right idea there though @impartialLion and maybe people can apply that to the broader context of why when someone just starts mischaracterizing me as a racist, homophobic, fatphobic, ableist for multiple days, I might just give up and start cussing at em lol. I mean, if someone did that to me in a bar I would get violent and I have been violent in the past with people. Being in bar fights is like an awesome experience and everyone should do it at least once.

I try not to be violent these days cus every time I do assault someone or shove glass in someones face I clould go to jail but usually people are cool about it.

@texaslawhopefully: Yeah, I mean it could happen to the senate and house like it did to Obama but if he keeps his overall approval rating up, even if someone does not like individual policies it's compromise: https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trumps-approval-ratings-break-records-democrats-back-him-2018900

@Dkk: Fair. My guess is (if the DNC is smart) dems change there messaging to be more appealing to moderates, they start winning and they hopefully that encourages republicans to move back to the center.

Dkk

18:47

Yeah, exactly.

Im starting to worry that I wont hear back from some schools before deposit deadline. Anyone have any advice? Is it possible they push back deposit dates?

i really dont wanna lose that much money

@llama: This was the best explanation that I read for it: https://samharris.substack.com/p/the-reckoning

@GapingVariousTurkey: same bro. im not worried cause yolo, but i think an honest talk with each applicable school will allow them to give leeway

texaslawhopefully

18:48

But, yeah, I think many people were shocked

@texaslawhopefully: when I have some time i will read, thanks fren. Regardless of whichever of the two [T or H] are in the WH, I truly believe expectations will be looked back on as over worried.

@llama: I don't know man, maybe I've been reading way too much news but I'm worried in a way I wasn't with Biden, or would've been with Harris

llama

18:53

@texaslawhopefully: looking back, the Rs were freaking out saying Biden was going to end the country, and the Ds were freaking out during DJTs 1st term. Neither did exceptionally bad or good, IMHO. At the end of the day, the rest of the GOV (Judaical and Congress) really put a damper on grandiose executive plans. Finally, we all know Donnie is a talker: he anchors (ie tarrifs), he talks shit, he says he will do X and never does. news eats that shit up, but I think most will not ever come to pass

I really think it's a lot of political theater right now. I think a huge percentage of these EO's are just going to be shot down.

the news sells fear. that is their product (hence why u see COPD, heart meds, stress/ antidepressants adverts during primtime). We know trump has a big mouth, and when he opens it, he spews nonsense which gets funneled into ur ears- ratings skyrocket.

llama

not COPD. my bad ^
