I don’t think he can because the RNC already happened making him the party’s nomination. The DNC hasn’t happened yet so the Democrats were able to switch candidates before they meet to nominate.

Also had a great sense of relief when mine was taken out. That wonderful absence of that particular pain was exquisite! There was other pains instead, but those pains had things that improved their symptoms while the gallbladder pain was otherwise untouchable by meds. My gallbladder had 3% working rate before it was removed.

I am eternally sad about Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me and Ask Me Another going off the air.
If one were to ignore the getting a position part, other changes include but are not limited to:
-an increase in people killing teachers/students/staff at nearly all levels of learning institutions. It’s not limited to the US and guns either (although they do make up a large portion).
-an increase in students showing outright disrespect or violence in a classroom to anyone but especially authority figures.
-due to the pandemic many teachers/staff died or retired, so there was a loss of guidance/mentors/knowledge as well as changes in policy/how things function.
-the abysmal shift in school work accessability during the pandemic created a general lack of knowledge/routine that would have formerly taken place during that time period. This means instead of being able to teach roughly the same curriculum for each class/each semester as one may have done for years, one must instead rework the course for a few grade(s) lower to accommodate the difference or fail a lot of kids that don’t have home support. (Additionally some teachers were already having to incrementally adjust curriculum each year since the No Child Left Behind Act was enacted).
-teachers/professor have been villainized in recent years by politicians and general pay/funding/grants have decreased (or rather never increased as the years changed).
-tenure tracks are going away in some places.
-the school or university could simply shutdown for numerous reasons in the middle of the semester with little to no notice given staff/teachers/students.
Generally speaking - There was a huge change a while back in how schools were getting money. Originally the government was paying 75% and the institute only needed to make the last 25%. Then things started to change and it flipped, so now most schools get 25% or less in funding and have to make up the rest of the 75%. (I’m generalizing numbers but they aren’t too far off). This drastically changed how things were ran and just like a business that’s gone private to public they are now trying to make money however they can.
They also got rid of/are limiting most full time jobs and have just increased adjuncts & grad students workload significantly. There is a block on all fulltime hires unless someone retires at at least 3 universities near me. Additionally most adjuncts make a pittance and have little/no say in their schedule or classes. Even when the department does try to accommodate, they generally have their hands tied by higher ups. Oh and schools will cancel required classes before the first day because of “low enrollment” (more than 12 people was the lastest requirement at one near me). Mind you that most students don’t get notified of their financial aide until the first week of school and can’t enroll until they have financial aide secured.
Again generally speaking - nowadays working a minimum wage job has better benefits, stability, and pay than being an adjunct. Even the poster you responded to said they have to work at multiple universities to get by - all without insurance. It wouldn’t be bad if it was only for a short while, before moving to a fulltime position. Yet I know of many qualified adjuncts (with goals of fulltime) that are hitting double digits in their adjunct positions waiting for an opening to go fulltime. Academia is unfortunately very different than it used to be.

I do agree that OP should look into already existing services that are actively monitored.
Yep- MIC as in microphone.
There has been a decline in third places. There was a decline before the pandemic but the pandemic made it worse. Here’s an article about the decline in America specifically and the newer ways people are trying to connect. It won’t help you make more friends, but will help get perspective of one of the reasons things have changed.

(Un)surprisingly, the US had lots of public pools, but they got removed because of racism. Definitely affects everyone especially the poor with little means of travel. https://www.marketplace.org/2021/02/15/public-pools-used-to-be-everywhere-in-america-then-racism-shut-them-down/
Are there any other good mushroom bible books to check out?

And bread machines!
In my opinion - If this were like a car race around a track, Speed Queen would be lapping all of the competition. The drums in both washer and dryer are huge, with the cycles running quickly. It seems to me that my clothes are cleaner from the wash and super fresh from the dryer. The fluff up feature and near dry feature are great on the dryer. The washer comes with a setting that you can use oxiclean to get a really really deep clean.
Ive heard but not confirmed that they use the same machines they sell to laundry mats, but just add a coin slot and allow them to go slightly faster. Anyway take that as you wish.
What you can definitely see from their website is that they stand behind and perfect a single model of gas/electric/stacked machine, rather than building multiple different machines for each. The company hasn’t changed its design much in years.
Great warranty. Techs specific to the machines - I bought the stackable floor model so it had been jarred around by shoppers for years before being bought and needed simple swap. Manuals are online and easy to find. Easy to read error codes with limited items that can cause each error problem. They even have a cycle that runs through all the systems on the machine run in quick succession to check for any problems (I don’t know if other machines have this too, but it’s the first time I’ve seen a tech utilize such a cycle).
If you check out your local equivalent of craigslist, fb marketplace, nextdoor, ebay, etc. you’ll find very few if any Speed Queens for sale, especially in comparison to the other laundry brands out there. Which to me, means people are likely using them til they’re dead, rather than getting rid of them to upgrade to something better.
Sorry for the novel. I’ve never really been impressed with any of the previous laundry machines I’ve used before. Most brands are fine and some suck. This brand is great! I actually enjoy getting the laundry done now… but Shhhhhh!! Don’t tell anyone!
Speed Queen washer and dryer. A bit more expensive up front, but definitely worth it.
She talks about laughing on some podcast but I can’t remember which one. Anyway, she said that most comics don’t really haha/laugh out loud at great jokes, but will simply say that’s a great joke with approval. So being the host on tv she is having to train herself to laugh at loud at things. The show is scripted and the footage cut up post filming so some people/contestants are funnier but they couldn’t air it or their words were tempered by the writers/editors. Here’s one interview podcast with her and Conan https://youtu.be/qDkFXrS-P-8?si=t9MqFHltXbSm0ccG
