You have to actually vote to see results. When you do, it says "most readers rated this article center/fair"

Wow you're confidently incorrect. Your article is from before Scalise dropped from the race. She's voted for Jordon in the vote this week.

You can't see the outside of the other leg?

This is one of those franchises that I never liked because of over hype. My buddies were talking this game up so damn much, talking about how awesome it was. I just kept thinking "ok when does it start to be fun? "

When I got to the twist, I was so disengaged that it just soured it even more for me. I wish I could play it without the hype so i could form a different opinion

I have to disagree with you that it's not a form of payment. How many platforms offer a subscription model to go ad free? Ads are a revenue stream for any given platform. You either pay the platform with your money, or your time watching ads.

If you disagree that you can't pay for things with your time, then we will have to agree to disagree

It's smoke and mirrors. They want attention off trump and the House right now

Are you claiming this article, about the democratic president impeachment, is a gop article? Yeah the GOP are involved, but it's pretty disingenuous to say this is about the gop

Yea I guess I should have used /s on that comment. That's exactly what I was referencing

Some employees get back pay when the shutdown ends, but not all

Some people still do. My coworkers wife at the EPA will get back pay. The people who really lose out are the contractors

they may need to make concessions to the Democrats

This feels like the only way forward, but that would mean Mccarthy would have to be bipartisan and I don't see that happening, just as much as I don't see the far right GOP conceding

No they can usually pass a continued resolution, which extends current funding levels for a specified amount of time. This usually gives them enough time to actually figure something out.

Right now is different though. There is so much infighting in the GOP that the far right wingers are holding the House hostage. They put forth a bill today (or yesterday? ) that 20 of the GOP switched sides just to make it fail (not that it would have made it through the senate and Biden threaten veto at it anyway). Theyre wasting time, and it seems the extreme rights in the GOP aren't cooperating because they want a shutdown.

McCarthy has no control. He made too many concessions to become speaker, and now a vocal minority is essentially in control

It's a small price to pay for a corroborating witness. This guy is a footnote, at best, in this story.

Canadian, probably? Niagara is on the usa/Canadian border

You realize that quote is from the Jewish victim in the story, right?

Fraud is just good business practice! He's so smart for that

Very illegal

It's funny that you used 2x4-8 as your example for length, because a 2x4-8 stud is not actually 8 foot. If you're looking for 8 foot 2x4, you need to be careful that you are buying true 8 foot boards, and not 8 foot studs.

That being said, that's the only board I'm familiar with that has a length that's not always true length

Just because you drink them year round, doesnt mean most people do. They dont brew them in the summer because they cant sell them enough to make it profitable.

You definitely have a point there about only having ipas at a brewery. IPA is the easiest beer to make, and the easiest beer to hide any imperfections. 1 of our 2 main breweries in town basically only does IPAs. Took them like 5 years until they did something that actually was good and not an IPA

This was in reply to "when my wife's out of town for a week." And me talking about how i have no idea how single parents do it... So... not there. When she's home, the duties are split and it's manageable
