For years people asked how I kept my house so clean when I lived by myself. I had 2 plates, 2 forks, 2 knives and I kept cooking down to 1 pot. If I was making spaghetti and meatballs (the easy way) I mixed everything in the pot, I made the balls on my plate, heated up the pot, browned the balls on bottom of the pot, cleaned dish while I did it, put browned meatballs on plate, boiled water in the pot, throw in noodles drain water when aldente, add sauce, add spices and throw meatballs back in on low heat until I get the sauce how I like. Put food on plate, eat. Put lid on bowl into the fridge for leftovers tomorrow. 1 plate and fork to clean when done. 2 minutes to clean that and the stove top up. Having more people complicates thjngs

Maybe, but the only way I can believe that is if we believe Biden was a far better candidate that Harris. Biden mopped the floor in the Democrats primaries everywhere they were held. Florida and Delaware were the only states that didn’t hold them if I remember, and Biden had something like 87% of the votes for Democrats. We say they meaningless, but the last time the Democrats were in the same position was 2012 voting in an incumbent. Obama got 2/3rds the votes that Biden did. 8 million, vs the 12 million votes for Biden.

The delegates could have flipped when Biden left but didn’t. Its a much higher likelyhood that there the issue was more people were not willing to vote for her for being a woman or being black. If people think that 1-2% of the voters aren’t racist or sexist in Georgia, Michigan etc they are off their rocker. A 1-2% moved from Democrat to Republican vote was enough to lose states like that.

So if Biden had not run at all, and sent it to Primaries, would that percentage have been enough to get her not to win the primary? I kind of doubt it.

I guess cowbiy is different to everyone but to me you lost the Cowboy at the entering of a coffee shop. Various reasons, 1 being it’s cheaper at home, and 2 being that the last cowboy I knew made $35k a year, so he couldn’t afford a coffee shop

I have so many old shitty drill heads laying around my first thought was hit the end of the flat head screw with a flat file then put a bit of jb weld on it into the head of the screw, if it doesn’t come out then, well it wasn’t going to come out.

The economic failures of the Biden administration consisted of what, failing to have a populous who votes for a good legislative branch? The only thing he could have done differently is be a dictator and/or force the fcc to shut down and stiffle far right propoganda. Which would still be overreach, being a entity meant to be non partisan.

The economy bounced back from COVID. Wealth distribution was what was horrendous. A Republican majority Congress passed nothing to help with wealth distribution issues. For 1, because it helped get them back in office, and for 2 because they are mostly despicable people.

Step 1: go on a date with someone your mutual friend informs you both already like each other…

Shit, now I need 2 friends. My fiancee is never going to believe I could pull this off.

I was with you until the HOV lanes, absolutely they are segregation. They say the terms of segregation on the sign. 2+ please segregates out 1 person travelers.

They can say whatever they want criticizing the government without retribution from the government is what it means. It was never protecting anyone from openly saying anything they wanted.

You can say you’re going to murder your neighbor and be arrested legally and charged legally for it if they find reasonable means you were going to try it.

You can slander/libel someone and legally get sued in civil court as well.

Strange competition as well. Let’s see a person outrun a car for 13 miles. There already Jaguars driving hundreds of thousands of miles more carefully than humans are. Why are we forcing them to be bipedal? Person in race vs a smart missile. Missile makes it to another continent before the person makes anywhere near that. Drones are flying around without need of human guidance. Computers are faster at just about everything and always will be. There’s a reason we make phone calls or emails instead of sending a letter.

I started using Cromite with OpenXNG as my search engine and it’s been good. A de-googled chromium essentially with built in privacy/ad blockers.

I remember reading about this one, able to fit in a small area and be moved, but never knew if it was thorium

Haven’t read up on much of it, just remembered it in passing.

Is this real? Pretty cool if they can actually stop the reaction with such

Yarp. The 2A calls for the right to form a militia. If one tried to do so right now I very much believe they would be labeled a terrorist organization and the executive branch would ignore the courts ruling it was their right. Might even be the U.S. born populous that he’s asking El Salvador to open more cells for

There really isn’t a good option there. Someone with a gun goes to protect these people in the car. Ice calls in back up/police or just guns down the shooter, label a terrorist, double down on their claims these people were in fact threats and get the insurrection act passed on Sunday do to media outlets using fear mongering against people who want the constitution upheld.

A single person or a group of 5 even with guns can’t do anything to help singular people against an army. Also the right has pushed for years, “they don’t care about you so why should you care about them”. Many conservatives have been divided intentionally. Taught to not help anyone but themselves, or maybe their family, but they will choose themselves over family most times.

Those 1-5 people would have more of an effect not fighting the random ice officer on the street but doing other things, most of which require coordination and cooperation without any means of large scale communication.

As someone who knows nothing about them I was really hoping OpenHomes was a opensource project to virtually design the home you like using Sims like front end but CAD software backend to ensure structural integrity. Which then you can rent a 3D home printer from a list of non profit companies who help people build affordable housing to drop the printer by and give tips on how to plan ahead for things like plumbing/electrical/network/sewage/insulation needs.

I was 20 meters up a tree reaching the clouds before I started reading the truth

“If the motivation was to hurt trans people in general it should be a hate crime just like any other group” were my words. Why was your first question that I thought they weren’t considered a group of people?

Laws should be written for people. Punishments for crimes are dictated separately for the most part. They just put max/min fines and incarceration times.

If you get a DUI it doesn’t say in the law you get up to twelve months in a women’s/men’s jail, it just says jail. The particulars of how the incarceration is dealt with is usually decided elsewhere (hopefully by the judge) while gender identity is stillprotected class in the U.S. Will it be for much longer, I’m not sure, I hope it is though.

What would they protect for them? Harassment is harassment, and a hate crime is a hate crime. If the motivation was to hurt trans people in general it should be a hate crime just like any other group being singled out out of prejudice

The last two I read weren’t immigrants, they are born in the U.S. with social security numbers and birth certificates. Well I’m assuming this one has those, being that she’s born and is a doctor here. Practicing doctors require background checks

I think I read somewhere he cut it to 20k a month, but yeah it’s a rediculous amount of money. Just move somewhere no one knows you with $2,500/m mortgage. Pay off a house in 5 years and stay out of the lime light. Take a job doing what you enjoy when the kids in school/daycare or what not if you like. Dumb situation but easy to make it decent.

In the U.S. gift tax is exempt on the first $14 million you give. You just have to submit a tax form when you file your taxes. So someone can gift each of their 5 grandchildren a million dollar house, and then give them $1.8 million dollars in cash each before they die. And avoid any gift tax on any of that. Then get taxed an inheritance tax. There is no Federal inheritance tax. Which if you live in a state like Tennessee where I live, the inheritance tax is 0%. So you have now avoided paying any taxes passing down any amount of wealth you potentially have. If you are a billionaire and have an accountant that can’t figure out how to bypass paying taxes you or they must be willfully choosing to do so in the U.S.
