It’s not are fault, it’s the school’s!

Arrested and strip-searched for a first offense? That’s fucking ridiculous. I hope the lawsuit succeeds. It’s the only peaceful tool we have to curb over-zealous law enforcement.

Before the morning was even over, the Tennessee eighth grader was under arrest. She was interrogated, strip-searched and spent the night in a jail cell, her mother says.

Earlier in the day, her friends had teased the teen about her tanned complexion and called her “Mexican,” even though she’s not. When a friend asked what she was planning for Thursday, she wrote: “on Thursday we kill all the Mexico’s.”

A few years ago, the U.S. passed a law requiring a back-up camera. Of course, this required a display on the dashboard. So, now all new cars sold in the U.S. have some sort of display on the dash, even the cheapest cars. I thought at the time, the real reason for this, since mirrors have always worked just fine, was to eventually display ads in the cars.

Not only this, but they all sit on each other’s boards. There’s essentially one big mega corporation:

Welcome to the Machine

Bro, we’re just glad a billionaire is dead. The irony of the hunter ended up dead by his prey is just icing on the cake, it wouldn’t matter if the hunter was a billionaire or not. The justification behind the hunt is irrelevant.

I think there are many hunters who would agree.

They’re trolling. It’s not just that they’re not paid enough to care, it’s that they’re so criminally underpaid, they’ve lost respect for everyone. If they were happy at their work, paid well, had benefits, and paid time off, and were treated well, they’d never consider trolling like this. We’d all feel like part of a community that respected and valued our input, and we’d all treat each other much better.

It’s a class war, and every year there’s less for us to share because the filthy rich refuse to share, and cannot be satisfied. It’s about power, and what good is power if it’s not exercised–wielded over others?

On every keyboard you use, one of the letters is flaky. It’s a different letter each time. Sometimes it sticks down, and you get “ttttttttt”, someimes i doesn’ work attttttttttt all.

It’s like any science, and even law, we’re trying to be very clear, exact, and specific with language that has evolved to express emotions and hyperbole.

You’re going to need to add “plus size” models to stay consistent.

I never noticed. But, I haven’t been to Hobby Lobby in probably ten years. Also, I’m old, and seeing someone enter prices into a cash register wouldn’t seem odd to me, I don’t think I would have taken notice. Maybe now, since I’ve been practically recruited as a check-out person, working for Walmart for free, and in the process taking someone’s job, maybe now I would, but I never have.

Drop some other satellite and say it was this one. Trump won’t be around forever.

The arrogance of having always succeeded in the past.

They gotta try him eventually, right?

Jury nullification.

This stupidity aside, Tesla is falling behind, and they don’t seem willing to admit it.

Dry pinto beans are cheap (and flavorless). You just need to soak them in water before cooking.

Rice is a carb and nutritionally void, but it will fill you up and keep the cravings away.

A better path is to shift your entire diet away from carbs and toward nutritionally dense, unprocessed foods. But, this takes time, and you probably don’t want to start that when you’re low on money.

I’ve been eating a mostly plant-based keto diet for 15 years now. I can easily go two days on just water and be fine, no cravings. The best way to save money on food is to not eat at all. So, rather than eat crappy food just to feel full and stave off carb cravings, eat less food, but more nutritionally dense food. You’ll save money and still be healthy.

Glad to hear it.

We’ll have petabyte drives for $50 before HL3 appears.

Same. But, I’m just old.

With so few of them, it wouldn’t take much to end them all.

With 200, half would be female, and maybe a third of them would be child bearing.

A food crisis, or internal strife, or disease, or all three at once, could easily drop that number to too few to sustain the population, and that would be the end of them.

Just because it hasn’t happened before, doesn’t mean it can not have happened recently. For all we know, they were suffering such a crisis for the past twenty+ years, and now the last of them have died off, or will die off soon.
