I’ll never understand politicians’ willingness to slob Kissinger’s knob every fucking chance they could. The dude sucked.

I could not finish Haunted.

Cheaper, not free.

By “controlled lending system,” do you mean the library? If so, it is ridiculously expensive for them to offer ebooks and audiobooks. One ebook costs $60-100 and they can only lend the licensed copy for two years. You would think audiobooks would be more expensive to do but publishers charge roughly the same.

I don’t know how they have not prepped Sen Whitehouse to run. Dude should win based on his name alone.

RISC-V still has a ways to go before it usable for much.

It’s probably well past the statue of limitations.

My mom just constantly says “the weather has been weird lately.” You would think she would see a pattern after so many years.

Last time the rest of the country had a heatwave, I said “thankfully I live in Seattle.” Only a couple weeks later the temperature was over 100°F here for five days straight. So I’m going to shut my mouth this time.

*HIPAA

His father’s supplement business…that he partially owns.

Apparently the editor realized it was not a good way to phrase it and reworded it. To make the original headline clearer, it could have been “Woman shot dead by…”

The Southern Baptists had pretty rampant sexual abuse. It was happening at quite a few churches and victims asked nicely to maybe make a list so other churches would know not to hire the rapists. The church declined saying that Baptist churches are decentralized and there is no central structure to do that. In reality they had been keeping track of perverts for decades and shuffling them around when they inevitably got in trouble again.

Also, the Southern Baptists only exist because they were cool with slavery. Fuck them.

Poorly worded headline. I initially read that and thought she shot a dead person.

It is required your all males. That said, you will generally only have an issue when applying for financial aid or if you want to work for the federal government.

Some antidepressants can increase sweating and repress thirst, which — much like frequent urination — can lead to dehydration during heat waves.

Super cool that they didn’t bother to list the types of antidepressants. Very helpful. /s

It has to be a part of their punishment. Even the state can’t enslave someone if it is not part of the sentencing.

A similar thing happened here in Seattle. A police officer, who had been fired from another department for reckless driving, decided it would be a good idea to go over 70 mph downtown without his siren on to get to a scene (an OD). Kevin Dave hit a 26 year old woman crossing the street and killed her. The police oversight board recommended he be fired. SPD and the union disagreed and gave him no punishment. Hell, they even joked about it. The city attorney fined him $5000 which he is delinquent on.

They’re not exactly cheap.

4.4% month over month is about 68% year over year if it stays that way which is still significantly better. The president is a piece of shit but he is indeed getting inflation under control. Unfortunately poverty and unemployment are definitely going to shoot up and I don’t foresee Milei giving a shit and trying to ease peoples’ burdens. I wish every president arrive Kirchner hadn’t done their damnedest to hide the real inflation rate. The central bank has not given any real numbers for well over a decade.
