"Goods prices have abated..." The fuck they have. Also stop blaming inflation on wage increase. Most of it was caused by opportunistic greed of those aforementioned 'goods prices'.

Our? Where? In the US? Certainly not in the US. By any measure. Math scores are the lowest they've been in decades, same with science. Nevermind all of the fascist 1984 book banning and burning nonsense happening in certain places. These kids are not smarter.

I'm so glad my government is about as good as a Tuesday episode of WWE raw. This is all so incredibly embarrassing.

Just another Tuesday in America.

I have a handheld marine vhf radio with a removable battery that I can throw in the ocean and it will work and continue to work for days. Don't believe the bs the manufacturers tell you.

He's a single sentence away from inciting another j6.

Since you actually seem to be asking... There is no gerrymandering at the federal level in the presidential election. You could argue that the electoral voting system is somehow a form of this, but it isn't the same as intentionally drawing districts to mathematically skew the advantage to the party drawing the map. That said, because electoral votes are based upon congressional representation, they do weigh smaller, emptier states more heavily. US senators are entirely free from gerrymandering as they are directly elected by popular vote. Small, empty states do have more power as a result and by design, for better or worse.

Poppinkream is a woman if I'm not mistaken!

Stretching the milk simply means increasing its volume by incorporating air. If you start with, say, 100ml of milk, when you're finished, you should have perhaps 150ml (depends on the milk, the fat percentage, the drink, etc). But that is all that it means.

Just below the surface (technically at the surface -should sound like paper tearing). How long very much depends on your machine, but most home machines, we're talking 7 or 8 seconds, and then you plunge the wand down well below the surface so you don't introduce more air, and you need to find the spot and angle that gives you a good whirlpool, which will incorporate the foam from the top into the liquid below so it is more or less homogenous.

Your milk is much too thick (for latte art). It should be the consistency of paint. Generally means you're stretching it too long at the start. You really only need a few seconds before you put the wand below the surface and whirlpool until you hit your temp. Lance Hedrick has a great video on YouTube on how to get silky micro foam. Give it a look.

They do though, but only when they bother to vote, gerrymandering not withstanding. Republicans historically have higher turnout than Democrats which is sadly why they have disproportionate representation.

What does it take to get this guy disbarred at the very least?

No matter how many times you post this, you aren't going to counter a century of bad deals and predatory behavior. Car dealers have zero place in the market stream any longer.

I honestly think he desperately wanted to be a porn star or something. Like, he really is maniacally obsessed with 'x'. He's such a complete fucking tool.

Actually, the judge commented directly in a written response, that yes, the jury did find that Trump raped Carroll. https://newrepublic.com/post/174448/judge-e-jean-carroll-case-yes-donald-trump-rapist

Super nice guy and super talented. I used to go to the society of illustrators in NYC for their life drawing nights and he'd be there pretty often painting and drawing. Nice to everyone and a good artist!

I'm not sure how informed any 13 year old is, so this doesn't concern me - what concerns me is that most 12-15 year olds are just putting in massive hours on this nonsense. My partner's 13 yr old spends, no exaggeration, 8 hours/day on TikTok. If not more. I just started looking at access time on my pi-hole and router out of curiosity and it is disturbing. He is not an outlier.

Which couch will they look in to find all that money??
