He finally defeated this evil man... after he rose to being the fucking pope, led the church for 12 years, and died at a ripe 88 years old...

Idk, I feel like God didn't do much at all. But if he's striking down evil, I'd get to painting your door in sheep's blood real quick, Marge.

Cardinal: Sir, JD Vance is here to see you.

Pope: slipping on noose I know.

Eat shit Alito

Trump, Miller, and the rest of he administration loathe the Constitution and the very foundations of the American ideal.

They seek to destroy all of it and replace it with a far right oligarchical dictatorship. They want an unchecked executive where the primary qualification of its officers is loyalty to the leader. Where due process is merely a suggestion and doesn't apply to whomever they decide. Where money spent on research, food safety, education, government oversight, and public welfare is corruption and fraud, but money spent on private enterprise that enriches the executive officers is not. And, unfortunately, they've seen more success in that than I would have thought possible, particularly in such a brief time.

Speak Spanish, believe it or not, also terrorist.

No i agree it's poorly phrased. But I still understand it to mean she is the one spouting the transphobia between the tense of 'says' and context.

"Says" implies "she says". "I says" sounds like some mafia speak.

It wouldn't have changed their actions, but it would have rid them of any plausible deniability that they had committed contempt of the Supreme Court in doing so. It would have made the constitutional crisis that we ARE in undeniable, and even the idiots at Fox News couldn't pretend that the administration followed the order by "allowing" his return if El Salvador just so happened to send him back. As it is now, you will have many MAGA believing that the administration is in compliance with the court's orders and did nothing wrong. They would have at least had to face the truth if there was no wiggle room, and maybe some would actually acknowledge that the administration is in the wrong about this one thing at least.

Also how do I save up perishables like potatoes for a big purchase? Do I have to set up a potato payment plan? What happens when I need IT services, but my profession is teacher and the IT guy doesn't need my services, do I have to source something he needs from someone who needs my services to get his services? What if I can't do my job without his services? Shit gets way more complicated without a uniform non-perishable national currency, fiat or otherwise.

in charge of figuring out the young man problem

Both a great idea and one that will absolutely piss of the conservatives that are happy to see their young men embrace far right ideologies even if it comes with violent hatred in the process.

I like your wings

How do you get so fucking absorbed into the causes of autism and yet have never even met autistic people? Even kids who are level 3 can usually learn to potty train so long as they don't have physical impairments or learning disabilities that prevent it. It's hard as hell, I'm sure, when they are completely non-verbal/non-communicative, have sensory issues, and struggle with routine change, and maybe not every level 3 kid gets there. But that's certainly not the case for the majority of autistic people.

Trump's not doing anything himself. He's siccing his hounds on them. He has the entire staff of the executive branch to throw at them without the constraints of ethics or even the bounds of the law much of the time. Trump is dumb AF, but he has plenty of slimy sycophantic henchmen and women who are conniving and intelligent enough to pose a threat. And even if they, themselves, aren't smart enough, they have heritage foundation back legal counsels that spend their careers twisting and exploiting holes in the law for self-serving goals. I can't say that I would be in a hurry to put my company's resources against that machine either.

He targetted law firms that have previously taken part in legal challenges against his administration or he himself with the Attorney General investigating them with no cause. Essentially threatening them with, pun completely intended, Trumped Up Charges and legal troubles so as to cripple or destroy their firms. They have made a bunch of concessions to Trump to avoid this. Everything from ending inclusion policies to offering millions in free legal services to his administration and affiliates. Now they are losing clients because of these concessions. Damned if they did, damned if they didn't. Trump is happy for them to die either way.

TL;DR: The Orange hypocrite is using the government as a weapon against the people he thinks have wronged him and is getting away with it.

You cannot build mixed use housing in places zoned against it. Obviously. But as you said, mixed use buildings exist in nearly every single town. And they build new ones all the time in cities across the US. There is absolutely nothing that stops him from owning one of those stores and living over it. It is most certainly not "mostly not allowed".

You really think one measly building per town is enough to be a counterexample to "mostly not allowed?

Now who is overblowing their position? One building? Where is there only a single mixed use building in a town? I would be more shocked to see a single mixed use building than an entire block or more of them.

It's lethal if you ingest too much or if you inhale it.

"normal" means "constituting a norm" as it usually does -- i.e., that it's usual, or typical, or common

Towns that have them are normal, then, right? You hardly go to a town where you don't see them right? So they are normal in that they are a part of each town. If they are only normal if they constitute some mass percentage of the buildings than almost nothing is normal. Most buildings in cities aren't courthouses, police stations, fire stations, schools, etc. But they do exist in damn near every town. Hell, there are even fewer of those buildings than mixed use buildings in most town. But those things are still normal. If you want to claim otherwise, cool, be the pedantic weirdo.

Update: Down voted, but no response. Sad.

Towns that have them ARE really common, which was my point.

Yes, a little bit of mixed use exists in each town.

Glad we agree on the only thing I actually claimed.

Fuck me, you're good at missing the point.

I'll not engage in an argument over semantics. I don't care what you qualify as "normal". Regardless, mixed housing doesn't seem to me to be significantly rarer here than it is in the UK, and it's becoming increasingly more common with new developments too. The person I responded to referred to it as "normal" there, and so I used the same term because i think it's nearly as common here. If you have a problem with that, bite me.
