It's dependent on a given state's terminology. New York, for example, has villages. They're municipalities that fall within towns, but collectively offer additional services that the town does not. So I could live in the village of Pomona, in the town of Haverstraw, and I'd need to pay taxes to the village and the town separately.
What expenses? If everyone is on a general strike, there's nowhere to spend money.
And honestly, your suggestion sounds like we're trying to trade one evil billionaire dictator for another evil billionaire dictator on the off chance that the new one won't destroy the global economy as thoroughly. That's not actually an improvement.
I think of myself as the chaos engine that drives the plot forward. Everyone else in the party would just sit and talk plans forever if I wasn't out here rolling death-saves.
Client-therapist privilege is foundational to how therapy works, but most states have laws saying a therapist must report admissions of abuse. I don't see doctors rallying against those laws.
The issue is that he's only been indicted in New York, and New York abolished the death penalty more than twenty years ago.
The Feds would need to press their own charges if they wanted to pursue the death penalty, which they have not done yet. That's the laughable part: they're trying to dictate sentencing before they pressed charges, gathered evidence, or secured a conviction. And the only way to get a death sentence is by unanimous jury vote during sentencing, which, let's be honest, is going to be very difficult to get rid Luigi.
Your parents can disqualify you from student aid at any age. My brother went to community college in his 30s and still had to complete a FAFSA (including parental income data) to apply for assistance.
It hasn't been decades. Maybe 15 years, though. It's coincided with the ubiquity of streaming.
Before Netflix was everywhere, a movie could bomb in theaters and still make up the difference on the back end. Kevin Smith's Clerks and Mallrats are great examples of movies that absolutely cleaned up on DVD sales. Comedy Central using advertising money and licensing Office Space for 20 hours per week is part of why the producers trusted Mike Judge enough to make Idiocracy.
But steamers don't pay nearly as well as direct-to-consumer home video or as well as advertising-supported licenses. So producers are disincenrivized to do mid-budget movies or take chances on new IPs, because if it doesn't do well in theaters then they're not making the money back.
Not every argument has two sides. Some have five sides. Some have one side. Pigeonholing everything into a duality hampers our ability to understand nuance.
I don't know if this is a joke or not. Elden Ring has Ghiza's Wheel as a weapon and is low-key considered "Dark Souls 4" by many fans.
