Intelligent, but major caveat. The legislature only cares about getting in and then about tenure. There hasnt been a house, senate, or executive and cabinet that isn't far right for about 45 years. Buying house members is stupidly easy.

There hasn't been much productive in legislation in that entire time except the ACA. That had to happen in the first Obama term, and I'm grateful it managed to limp through in its shitty form. Obama might be the best republican president, but it doesn't really help anyone.

Yeah, only the rich would benefit. Again.

I can think of about 5 very cheap ways this is a solved problem at least at close range. Maybe 1000km.

It still boggles my mind that almost all retirement accounts just blindy add money to the market once or twice every month and it doesn't even move the needle! If we all knew which days our investments and matches (if you're lucky) went in, the non-rich could also print their own money! BRB, going to talk with benefits managers that also skim everything.

I love my winter jorts. No problem with cold when your calves are big enough to create their own weather patterns.

Tribute that is how cat chaos works. My family had a lot cats. I only hadn two over 25 years.. One killed dogs and bats for fun, one was called velcro, because they never jumped, only climbed. Velcro loved water. We could literally turn the hose on and spray him and he loved it. He would walk into a shower or bath.

Do you think trump would funnel more than the 2.5 billion+ in government funding 6hat has already been handed to Tesla?

Don't believe the social security scare tactics. It's always been a shell game. It isn't some pile of money that runs out if we don't pay into it. It is just another line item. Short of voting for it to die, it will be there.

There are plenty of variable thickness bottles for other kinds of alcohol. It still has to hold 750ml of liquid if that is the volume of the spirit. It would be easier to water things than pass off an incorrect volume.

This frankles me as guitarist of 40 years. I've never played electric so I'm kdomfed.

Welcome to the list. For the username, not the comment.

I wish that was how elections worked for regressives, or politicians in general. It isn't.

Books. Even when waiting for the other kid at a sporting event. Books. 45 minutes in, food. 1 hour plus? Some youtube. This is privilege working against the kids.

You can? Because he already has. Please do!

Nope. The mask only works for one hour. It takes 30 seconds to fall asleep. So you can never get the hour it takes to be fully rested.

Battle toads can eat a schlong. Actually good games like kid icarus, etc were just as hard but actually fun to play.

No.

There are so many styles, patterns, and colors of caps under the very wide term of flat cap. I think the pretentious feeling is silly, and probably geographical. I have baseball hats, beanies, newsboys, whatever. It doesn't have to be your thing, just a thing you have.

Copper at best.

It had fewer issues than almost anything I've owned since. I bet it would still work if I got the right adaptors. Wasn't a huge financial success though. They seemed content with early coding and games, and didn't move into word processing etc.
