Flying the flag upside is a distress signal. People who use it as a political statement are misusing the flag, and that is the actual disrespect here.

This is so much more complex than the HGP

Not with a sailor in the mix, it's not!

Nobody was being asked for their social media credentials, it's not like you have to give them full access. What happened was that the attorneys looked the jurors up and went through their old posts, all stuff that was publicly available. One of the jurors they dismissed posted a picture of people celebrating Biden's election win, and that was enough to show that they were biased.

Yeah, remember when you used to have to buy minutes??! With some plans you could roll over unused minutes, but with others you couldn't! Like 20 bucks for 100 minutes and you couldn't even save them from month to month! I'm glad those days are gone, but I'm not sure we're paying any less...

I did a similar thing, but I would tell them the phone number of the public phone I was calling from, so they could call me and we could have a normal conversation. If they didn't call right away, I'd do it again, knowing they'd be waiting for the number this time.

In the disability advocacy community, we like to say that accessibility is for everyone!

"Fatherless households" is just racist code for black families.

For large sums of money, it's pretty common to use cashier's checks, which is probably the kind of check that they're talking about here.

Have you considered playing the drums?

As a teacher, I treasure all of the heart-felt notes and letters students have left me over the years. If you want to give something that shows them how important they are to you, write them a letter.

Pi is irrational because it represents an imperfect ratio. Curves are different than straight lines, so when you try to relate them to one another, some things don't match up. It happens any time straight lines and curved lines interact, I think. Pi and e both show up in the weirdest friggin places.

Apparently as long as it's not a paper towel you're alright. So go ahead and wipe your tush.

It's not supposed to be in quotes, it's supposed to be italicized.

You're right of course.

The Moral Majority was the real start. Friggin Reagan invited the loonies in and the right has literally never recovered. We're all paying the price.

Can't beat an audiobook in that case!

As an actual 40 YO divorced dust that used apps for a bit, I felt weird doing 10 +/-, but I can't imagine there are THAT many guys with such a wide range.
