Languages change over time. As long as the intent is clear, don’t get hung up on what is and isn’t “correct”. “You’re welcome” probably was seen as extreme at some point itself.

That feels like a privacy issue, maybe related to the topic of whether or not they can force you to unlock your phone? I don’t know where the current law is on that.
States’ rights, unless it’s inconvenient.
Absolutely, although isn’t a major job for the VP to handle international affairs, which this definitely is one?
I just wish we had other choices out there. I’ll vote blue and persuade others also because the choice given the voters is bad politics as usual, or insanity. I can vote for Biden/Harris and still hope (with much doubt) for more progressive actions from underneath.
Except for one thing. Unless that society is also a lot different than ours, it would still require the product these companies produce to survive. So maybe a much stronger slap of the hand, but it wouldn’t eliminate them.
Polls are polls, but just the fact that there is still any conversation at this point says a lot about the state of the country.
Age is a factor, but the real problem is voters being given only two choices, or even only one in the case of an incumbent without primary competition in the party. I would not want someone shut out simply because they got past an arbitrary mark of time, as there are plenty of sharp and even progressive old people, as well as some dumb regressive young ones. It’s how good of a pick they are to lead the country, and right now we really don’t get that choice in a vote. So until we do, we have to pick the less destructive version, which is the obvious Biden who is questionable in many respects and yet still far more aware of reality. And not an established criminal, fascist, and racist.
Some of us “essentials” pretended that nothing was going on at all and kept going to work because an actual shutdown of core parts of society would have been a total disaster. I’m totally for WFH situations where it makes sense, but some jobs require a physical presence even in a pandemic, otherwise the wheels stop for everyone.
Some native Floridians now dismiss a Cat 4 as not as big deal as a Cat 5, not realizing the very small wind level difference. Adding a 6 would let them downplay a 5. My own stance is that once things start getting picked up by moving air, it’s all dangerous and should be prepared for and avoided.
Plus, most deaths in a hurricane aren’t from the wind. They’re from drowning from flood waters. There’s plenty of eyewitness videos now on the internet for anyone to be aware of the seconds it takes to go from safe to shit, but people will always think it only happens to other people.
Their work resulted in the often-posted newspaper article speculating how in a few centuries the emissions of burning coal might become a problem for the world’s environment. What they didn’t anticipate was the rate of increase from a population explosion which would begin its climb in a few decades from various factors.
Or full VR experience online eg. Neuromancer. Though even if the tech was available and fully tested and working, there are many pros and cons to all forms of enhancement or out-of-body existence, or a more extended life.
Just take him out for an all night party to get him drunk, and then accidentally open the door as the sun is rising.
The only issue I have with secession talk is there are lots of Texas citizens who aren’t the problem. Every red state has people with common sense, they just don’t have the ability at the moment to shut up the idiots. Plus secession at this point is ludicrous, leaving with your toys isn’t how you fix problems. Oh wait, it’s Republicans, they don’t ever have solutions anymore anyway it’s all a political game.
“The economy looks to be recovering!”
The millions of people not doing great in various ways: “Yay.”
Just an accidental brake malfunction. A Mac and Me moment.
Be sure to not have throwable things around you if you haven’t heard about this before. Especially the amount of money that was being reported missing right before 9-11-2000, and suddenly was never brought up again.
Close enough, it’s not blocking a space. Better to be secure, but got to take what wins we can get. It’s possible that when that cart was brought there the corral was full and the person retrieving them didn’t get the loner. It’s like the pictures of the car parked across several spots without the context that there was snowfall and no lines were visible then.
Right. Use this as moving the line to the next step. If this much help is palatable to the ones who typically object to doing things for those in need, then maybe chipping away at something else will be too. It’s better than trying to help most everyone and getting shot down.
And it totally sucks that we live in a world where we have to play that kind of game to get anything.
“it would have been quicker too had the victim not resisted so much.”
