  • I think the people cutting down 150 year old tress are pretty clearly the ones to blame for cutting down 150 year old trees.

  • Weird I wasn't aware of that. I'm so glad I've never had to deal with bed bugs. I've heard they are a serious scourge.

  • Not sure about the Guggenheim but in London the article says:

    The golden toilet was fully functioning, and prior to the theft, visitors to the exhibition could book a three-minute appointment to use it.

  • I think London just had or is having bed bug troubles too but I didn't hear anything about Paris.

  • The very last line stuck out to me:

    Markou, the grower, said of the tree-cutting. “You kill your own history here.”

  • The only app that people have been hesitant to tell me they met is PoF. Although I've never met anyone who's volunteered that they met on fetlife and you know, statistically speaking, some people must have.

  • I remember people would lie about how they met because they didn't want to say they met online. Oh how the times have been-a-changing

  • Most corporate subsidies are tax breaks so you'd still have to raise taxes on someone\something

  • I hope it got you to read the article

  • I don't know how you grew up but at 18 I knew what a deposit & what a down payment was, I understood the concept of interest & an interest rate, etc. There are countless things that people think are incredibly common knowledge but if no one took the time to explain it then you're utterly lost. So many of these foster kids and group home kids completely missed out on that basic knowledge.

  • From the article, paragraph 2:

    It reflects the sentiments of many U.S. diplomats, especially at mid-level and lower ranks, according to conversations with several department staffers as well as other reports.

  • You're not going to get a lot of people agreeing with you but I do. Biden does a really good job getting stuff done behind the scenes.

  • Your can't hear it but I'm applauding by snapping my fingers.

  • No you're wrong it's a poetry event

  • That's the word in the headline

  • We don't like providing services to people once they're 18 and we live in a time where people worship at the tax cut alter. All services cost money and there are few politicians who want to make the argument that we should raise taxes to fund more services. Until voters demand it I don't think people like Birdie will get much more than they're already getting.
