Who needs a tool? He and the other GOP members have clearly broken countless laws, they haven’t even tried hide half of them and the other half have been hidden incredibly poorly.
The due has felonies and just straight-up wasn’t punished because it might have been difficult for a guy accused of fraud and bribery and manipulationa and a host of other things to be the fucking President of the violent toddler country.
“Pedestrian struck by driver” is pretty clear. I get what you’re saying but c’mon, there are lots of words in the English language even most people these days have severely reduced vocabularies.
You do have to use them correctly. I know a lot of people who use them irresponsibly, who don’t have the emotional intelligence to understand how the experience is going to be different(and therefore manage their emotional expectations*), and who match with way too many people for basically nothing while denying others over trivial things.
*You should be very into people and they should be into you, but how crushes develop from online dates is simply fundamentally different. You will likely not get the same “oh my god who is that?!” moment from someone you’ve already spoken to and who you know already wanted to go on a date with you.
Most of the male history nerds, especially the ones who are dicks about it, are into war history. Talk to women who are into history and they’re out there building historical recreations of clothes, making historical food(there are some men doing great here, too), talking about niche histories of human rights, and all manner of crafts.
Most importantly, the history men learn is called “history” and the history women learned is called “traditional techniques” or “neat little facts” or basically anything that tries to not count it in the same way. They “don’t know history” and their “traditional techniques” are considered to be just crafting hobbies.
I had a friend like this, too. I have a memory of him saying “uncultured swine” because I enjoyed Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy and thought six hours of the Godfather sounded awful.
That was highschool, though. He turned around over the next few years; now we’re thirty and I happily see him every week because he’s our DM. I’m not saying you were wrong to stop talking to that dude, not at all you gotta set boundaries, just wanted to say that there is at least one example of growth!
Investigated? Prosecuted? Yea, and like his felonies, at the end they’ll say he’s not gunna be punished in case that makes his job of being a super criminal while in charge of that country difficult.
That’s literally the plot exactly.
The US owner class and the conservative/centrist governments have always hated unions. The Pinkertons aren’t storybook stuff, they’re real thugs who did real violence(and who still exist today). Strike-breaking, incredibly weak laws around protecting people who try to unionize, and aggressive “individualism”(it only serves to isolate people because we’re weaker apart) are all great ways to slowly discourage people from standing up for themselves.
In some ways, people did decide that it wasn’t worth it, but that wasn’t really tied to the union being bad, more out of the fear of being punished. Jobs were shipped overseas, and poor people who can’t afford US-made goods only hastened the downfall of the US manufacturing as they chose cheap products from department stores and allowed all their local equipment and knowledge to rot away.
The graph is pretty on point. Our productivity, all over the world, has been sky-rocketing and pay has barely moved. Even today, unions are still important for keeping various industries held to SOME kind of standard, but they’re rare enough that it’s still not lifting the entire economy.
Make it 70, but they have to live off the same pensions as everyone else after 60 years old.
In the original toothless is a common green dragon with one tooth. Bro’s a sassy bastard and the whole point is that Hiccup has to be the hero with a severely lacking toolset.
I set mine to silent all the time anyway, and have it mounted on the dash so I’ll see it go off. If I miss something, I mean I’m driving so whatever, it’s not the end of the world.
The only people who were “tricked” by Trump were the hateful and stupid. He learned a lesson, sure, but it was not a difficult one to learn and yet he it took this to finally make him figure it out.
And like most of them, he still won’t truly learn why what he did was bad and will likely do it again.
Yes, I am 1,000% aware that no corporation needs to survive. Telling Arizona Iced Tea, one of the few wide-spanning businesses that’s actually decent, that they need to sell at a loss to make you feel good is immensely stupid and there’s mo two ways about it.
Maybe they suddenly started jacking up their prices to make huge profits and stopped treating their employees decently, but I missed that news in that case.
And we need to be clear that “vacations” does not mean travelling. People will do basic tourist crap in Italy and call themselves worldly, whatever. But people do need money to just exist in their own space without working for a week(longer, obviously). People can’t even be tourists in their own cities and towns.
Not a doctor, but am in various situations where I have to pick sounds out. There’s something very valuable about having a natural example, especially if the person listening has to find that example all on their own.
Right? Same problem in Canada, we bitch and moan and will spend so much energy on so many things but our turnout is dogshit. The last Montréal municipal election had 36%, the last couple Ontario provincial elections had less than half, and the last federal election was only 69.5%. Last time the federal election saw more than 70% was in 1988.
The honest fact of it all is that votes are currently not weighted differently. No matter how fucked things get, if populations said “NO” to these openly corrupt assholes then that would be the end of them. Instead, it feels like nothing will stop idiots from voting for pure evil and nothing will get 30+% of the population to actually pay any attention at all.
People keep saying that, but 1) having a degree is not a sign of someone’s general intelligence, not even close, and 2) it absolutely has a greater effect the dumber you are.
Intelligence is curiosity and being able to have a greater degree of nuance in your thinking. It’s being self-aware, and about being able to understand transferable properties. A LOT of people, regardless of education, struggle deeply with those concepts.
At the very least, activities within the schools will not be participating in shitting all over the children’s brains. That still means something.
And ed Sheeran, who is immensely popular and will be fine, should just refuse to play the rest of the tour.
“But he has a contraaaaact” don’t wanna hear it.
