Lol. I missed a week of working at Hustler for jury duty once a few years ago. I was sad. I have jury duty after the new year. This is a side question but did they raise the pay? It was $11 a day when I was on jury.

Yeah, absolutely, I'd be interested in any suggestions of leftist (non-centrist, i.e. not democrat orgs) organizing efforts

You're going to need to treat the walls, ceiling and floor as well. otherwise it'll start to come back over time.

You can absolutely bypass all of their filtering with a VPN. I used one last time I had jury duty.

Pizza di Joey in fed hill had decent NY/NJ pizza when I was last there a few years ago. I’m from North Jersey.

Highly depends on location/room. Some rooms it's terrible. Some rooms it's okay, especially in certain corners and near windows.

Can I hijack this thread and ask if there are any active progressive (not socialist) groups that do organizing work?

It's good that you won't be going there.

Wait till you find out about juror nullification, that’ll show ‘em.

sounds like that's a better option, then
if you have a laptop or tablet, just tether it.

Just write "the only understanding I have of socialism was gleaned from right-wing memes, and I don't know how to read a book" next time. It's a lot shorter.

Reply to I need shoulder surgery (Bankart labrum tear repair). Has anyone else in the sub had/talked to someone who's had this procedure done in Baltimore/the wider DMV area? Looking for recommendations for orthopedic surgeons who specialize in shoulders. by cheesewitche
I've had several other surgeries with locally renowned surgeons. When I asked the top docs who they recommended for torn labrum and bicep, the answer was Anand Murthi at MedStar. I'm all fixed up now.

Isnt it great how just wanting genuine social change labels you a socialists, which has an artificially creates bad connotation in america.

As a teacher in the city, plus a voracious bookworm, I agree with this!

As someone who grew up in NYC and moved to Baltimore recently. Step one, is to stop the mindset of "looking for NYC". Works for travel too. You wont get the pizza here, you wont get the bagels. Im a bodega Kaiser Roll breakfast guy, you wont get that here. I dont think ive seen a dirty water dog since ive been to Baltimore. When i miss nyc, i go back. If you plan on living in Baltimore for a long period of time, find what you like best about Baltimore. Overall, ive been more then happy with my move and look forward to staying.

The book you should bring if you wanna get dismissed is either We Own This City or I Got a Monster. Of course this is Baltimore so they often just take warm bodies.
Hilariously, I didn't get dismissed even though my employer was a civil justice org that, among other things, has a huge criminal defense and civil rights component.

Oh that's very cool! Something like slipping and landing on my back would completely knock it out of joint right now. I'd imagine you're experiencing that level of force semi regularly in the rink so it's really cool to hear that you're doing well.
I can hardly remember what 80% of my pre injury stability felt like bc it's been messed up for so long, even though it's actually gotten significantly stronger since then due to all my efforts to avoid surgery. Sounds like I should just do it
