Came here to day something like this but, as usual, I

Now we know what it takes to stun someone who lives in Las Vegas

Ah darn. Well I'm sure you find some locally. Good luck!

PM me if you're in the US I'll send some

Four? You must really enjoy food that spins

I'm not childless but if anybody knows where I can get a loaner wife I might be interested

A couple thoughts...

It is talking about President, but counts years where those names appeared on the ballot as Vice President too.

It also ignores that a lot of other people have also been on the ballots over the years.

Also, some of this is natural. When a president has an 8 year run, the Vice President is a natural person to take a shot at the presidency, so it's perfectly normal to have 12 years where the same person is on the ballot as VP then P. It's natural for this to happen more than once in a row. Whether we've had this long of a streak or not, I don't know, but I suspect we might have.

This showerthought covers 44 years. The Bushs and Clintons double dipping is 12 years worth of ballots, but the other 32 years were natural. Hilary lost when she tried to double dip so I would argue the 8 years of Dubya are really the only anomaly in actual presidencies as far as "dynasties" are concerned.

I have this one, it's probably the most minimal https://a.co/d/1BycXW3

Ha, I thought this was a question and started to link to the lawfare article which came out today and has same title... because this was actually a link to the article and not a question

I love wireless charging. I don't know how it would be a gimmick, except that it's slower than using a cord (but I think the next generation is supposed to be really fast). They make DIY wireless chargers that you can wire up and put in things. I have two that I mounted under the little tray on top of my dash. I put my wireless charging earbuds case in the tray and it automatically charges while I'm driving. I have a flashlight that can charge there too. The tray is too small for a phone or else a phone could charge there. I've been thinking about putting one inside my nightstand at home https://a.co/d/gdghAWp

I also like magnetic phone holders with wireless charging. I made mine out of a different type of mount and charger but it's something like the link. I have one mounted to my dash where I can see the phone if I need nav or something, it holds it firmly and charges as I'm driving. Also mounted one on my desk next to the computer. https://a.co/d/7pauuzO

Very interesting. Is there somewhere I can buy a fork that doesn't have those slots?

I once went on vacation with six other family members. There were eight people on the return flight. Just us and the guy who definitely wasn't an Air Marshall
