I’ll bet one of the two candidates could easily answer both of those questions

I used to work with Croatians and Slovenians that spoke English fluently but switch to their language abruptly as I was standing there. I thought that rude of them

Very few people have that opinion.

Nuclear plants also have to built adjacent to reliable water supply. I’ll bet the land is more expensive and a bigger environmental impact whereas the location for solar is more flexible

Thanks, great list!

My contribution:

Rude Boy (1980): Lots of Clash live footage with the social upheaval in London as a background. Or is it the other way around? Must see for any Clash fan. Lots of unintelligible dialog from mumbling Brits and their crazy slang. Currently on Night Flight pay streaming service

Times Square (1980) not sure if this is something you want on your list but you might enjoy. Two girls form a punk band and shit goes sideways. Featuring a young Tim Curry

The Dicks From Texas (2014) documentary on The Dicks. Gotta admit I haven’t seen this one yet.

If you aren’t aware already Night Flight is an excellent streaming service specializing in Rock stuff. They’re having a sale $50 for a year, as far as I know it’s still available at that price. In the 80’s it was a late night cable show I never got to watch as we didn’t have cable. The original episodes are on the streaming service. Despite showing a lot of main stream stuff it was pretty radical for it’s time. New Wave Theater was a segment within the show that had some underground stuff until it’s host got stabbed to death

That’s right so yall just stay the fuck away from Cleveland

Imma gonna go flip off some cops and get rich

According to the FBI crime has been on a steady decline since the late eighties. The Freakonomics guys credited things like higher incarceration and legalized abortion. Another factor others came up with is the removal of lead from gasoline. It happened not only in the US but other countries also. Apparently airborne lead isn’t so healthy for young developing brains and the drop in crime began when people born at the time of the ban were reaching their adult years

What community owned newspaper do you read?

" it was just the oligarchs exchanging property among themselves." What is that supposed to mean?

200 bucks? You got off cheap. Did they give you an aspirin?

I suppose you base your opinion on memes?

Looked this one up on WaPo as I’m a subscriber. The comment section was filled with people accusing the Post of being pro-Hamas

The only thing I see wrong with this is you let your daughter boss you around

Fun fact: in America asking “how’s it going?” is just a greeting, nobody really cares

PayPal sent me an email telling me I couldn’t use their service because I had a VPN. No big deal, I’ll just start using my credit card. A few weeks later PayPal emails me to say we’re all good and I can use them again

Rally-Q

Might be worth buying an infrared thermometer to see if there is wiring overheating in your walls. I’m not an electrician but i wonder if it’s something then can happen sporadically such as if there is something drawing a lot of power that turns on/off. There are inexpensive ones out there and they can be handy to have around.

Have you read the Wikipedia page? It’s pretty interesting

If you like these kinds of movies (I call them road flicks, linear story line, lots of cameos) I have a few suggestions:

It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World

Cannonball Run

Rat Race

Who’s Minding the Mint?

Is it possible you’re allergic to alcohol?
