> "In 2015, chemist David Whitlock made headlines with the announcement that he had not showered for 12 years. Instead, he sprayed himself with good bacteria, and even started a skincare brand based on the philosophy. The year after, physician James Hamblin wrote about how he stopped showering, too."

As long as his scent/musk/smell doesn't affect his social life, he'll probably be fine.

Donald Trump has violated the gag order placed on him during his NY trial ten times so far. If he keeps violating it, what should Judge Juan Merchan do?

@rbreich Sorry if this is a repeat -- I haven't read your replies/thread to completion.

To answer your question: Escalating incarceration. First, held by the bailifs during a break. Then, all breaks for 2, 3, and (in turn) 5 court days. Next jailed while still being allowed to attend court, for 24, 48, 72 then 168 hours.

If during that whole time, and after, he continues to violate the gag order, after a week-long stay and 2-3 more warnings, incarceration until the jury is isolated.

@georgetakei

In their defense, I can rag on President Biden for hours, but he's still got my vote.

(I am NOT saying Rep/Dem or Trump/Biden are equivalent, just that when there's only two choices, you can often find problems even in the one of the two you prefer.)

We need ranked-choice voting (preferably a Condorcet method).

Thoughts?

@georgetakei Cube rule eliminates this possibility, as a hot dog is not ever a sandwich; it's a taco.

I'm down for hot dogs as breakfast tacos; I'll use butter and maple syrup instead of mustard and ketchup.
