  • But why did it start in the Senate?

  • The Senate? And now it goes to the house? I have never understood why some things that seem money related start in the Senate when I think they should start in the house.

  • Which means the real price is almost a trillion.

  • But porn is a popular media format fitting the structure of a movie.

  • Riots are how things normally start. Rule of law becomes a memory and crowd dynamics take over. Then people try to put order to chaos for fun and profit.

  • Call centers: that there is time between calls. That people have time off the phone to form friendships with coworkers.

    Handyman: we have sex with clients.

    IT: that we can just code anything we want regardless of standards, policies and best practices.

  • Yes and no.

    A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

    If you are overthrowing the government then the regulated part makes no sense. The second amendment is for defending the country, not overthrowing a tyrant that was legally elected.

    That's the canon side. The dogma side is very different, but irrelevant. All the liberty minded ammosexuals support the tyrant so they won't do a thing against them. Spent my whole life hearing how they were going to protect us from the camps. Now they are volunteering to build the camps. They said martial law was going to take their rights away. Now they are totally fine with no due process or habeas corpus.

  • "not possible to meet the number of people that want to see us" has the same energy as "it's not possible for you to meet my girlfriend because she lives in Canada."

  • In plain English this means

    Me "Have you checked for eggs recently? I just saw a bunch in the nesting boxes. Too many for one day." Wife "Yeah, it's been a while. Even Rose [the duck], who hasn't laid an egg in five years, probably laid one." Me "I haven't seen our special needs cat, the one we trapped as part of a TNR run on our own property, in the last 12 hours. Have you seen that blessed dumb beast who walks like he is drunk? If you see him now could you bring him inside?"

    Any sufficiently developed culture has its own language. In this house we go out of our way to make obtuse inside joke references to keep each other on our toes.

  • Seems kinda low. But that's just me living in America looking around at supply chains, government policy and

    <waves hand>

    . And that's before some disturbed person set the fabric section of our Walmart on fire resulting in ... Well ..

  • Or at least not in conversational English. Me "The cheese is old and moldy." Wife "Roses eggs" Me "Bach unaccounted."

  • Jokes on them. I don't have phone conversations

  • Only 776 views. Criminal.

  • They might vary on issues like how high a riser or how wide a tread should be but if they are going to bother to have a code then they will usually contain things like the need for a railing.

  • Sometimes these issues can prevent financing. If you have enough money to pay cash then it's not an issue. But most people can't do $300k in cash.

  • Codes are enforced at finalized at the local level. We've only abandoned stuff at the federal level, so far.
