Megathread: US Supreme Court Finds in Trump v. United States That Presidents Have Full Immunity for Constitutional Powers, the Presumption of Immunity for Official Acts, and No Immunity for Unofficial Acts

On Monday, the US Supreme Court sent the case of Trump v. United States back to a lower court in Washington, which per AP has the effect of "dimming prospect of a pre-election trial". The majority opinion, authored by Chief Justice Roberts, found that:

Under our constitutional structure of separated powers, the nature of Presidential power entitles a former President to absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for actions within his conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority. And he is entitled to at least presumptive immunity from prosecution for all his official acts. There is no immunity for unofficial acts.

You can read the full opinion for yourself at this link.

How often do y’all shower?

My cousin (18f) Take a shower once every 3 to 4 days or longer and she stays over at my house quite a bit, but she stinks like Bo and I don’t know how to tell her nicely. I always offer her or ask if she’s gonna take a shower I bought her all the stuff that she likes to use, but also she makes comments about me (21f) and my husband (21m) about how much we take showers we choose to take showers every day so my question is how often do y’all take shower? If you could mention if you are female or male because I feel like that, also makes a difference.
