To hear Russell Crowe tell it, Gladiator 2 may suffer from this

…here’s Tom with the weather.

It’s not a war on drugs, it’s a war on personal freedom, okay?

I’m with you there. SFTD hit a great balance between dark and light. I think Josh needs Nick Oliveri’s approach, though I know he had his problems (maybe still?). Musically though, I think they’re a case of a whole being greater than the sum of its parts.

“I’m literally dying of thirst. I can only pick from two glasses of water. One is poison and will definitely kill me. The other tastes bad and may give me the runs, but I’ll survive.”

“I have it! I’ll drink neither and wait as others pour the poison water down my throat for me!”

Yeah based on the photos I see, it seems like lots of complicated fuckery goes into all her exposed parts.

It’s like the alt-1985 Biff reality came to pass.

Any reasonable person looking at these circumstances say 10, 15, 20 years ago would think 'No, that could never happen. He’d be barred from office, maybe even imprisoned."

And yet, here we are. This timeline, for the US anyway, deserves to be pruned.

A steady stream of people showing up daily with nothing, starting from scratch, is not a crisis to you?

What do we do with those who show up to find all the farm jobs in Idaho and other places are filled? Furthermore, do you condone the treatment refugees receive while working these jobs?

There are certainly racists opposed to letting in refugees, and a lot of them make policy on such things. But minimizing the long term need to assist the ongoing influx of people as purely racism isn’t productive. We have no solution for what to do with all of them.

Leaving drugs completely out of discussion, this is a humanitarian crisis. Do you think just opening up the border and letting whatever happens afterward work itself out is the answer?

Dusty Deevers, lmao. I went to elementary school with him for a few years. You don’t forget a name like that. Trust me, he comes by the dipshitidness honestly from growing up in that Oklahoma town. It’s isolated and simple, and at least 50 years behind the times. I wouldn’t call anyone from there wordly.

I was obviously just a kid at the time, but an opportunity came and I noped the hell out.

You’d think corporations would learn from these types of failures. But no, not as long as endless growth is the overall plan. The yes men will keep cutting corners at the expense of safety and quality.

And someone had to put an arrow, furthering the sentiment

Fuck sake Harris, why make fear your message? Republicans and supporters love that. Why give them what they want?

Voters need to hear about resolve. Strength through sanity. Looking past MAGA rather than making it the focus.

They’re showing less of the train wreck than before and denying him some of the free coverage to which he feels entitled. The tantrum was inevitable.

I like candidates who weren’t barred.

None of the Justices dissented on this decision. Does that suggest they all agree that Trump should exhaust the appeals before they make the final ruling?

No doubt, but the Rs have already politicized the highest officers by labeling those making policy with which they disagree woke. They pay close attention and vet the generals, and I believe they’ll use this practice to influence the promotions with their own hierarchy in mind–and plans once it’s in place.

I suspect this was Tuberville’s main goal with all this nonsense. The disruption to the defense department and nonstop cycle of distraction this year have been icing on the cake for him and MAGA at large.

Tuberville has achieved setting precedent that higher officer promotions don’t need unanimous Senate consent. Republicans will plan to use this to promote MAGA friendly officers in an effort to influence and control the military.

My manager is a prime example of your first category. He has a nice federal retirement and a chunk of a 401k, but he stays here…riding his desk. He can’t begin to fill the shoes of the Gen-X manager he replaced. Thus the quality of my department suffers because he’s a weak manager and susceptible to the schmooze by younger employees.

He took over the position just after he: 1. Moved 2 hours away, and 2. Had a massive heart attack. This guy’s circumstances are screaming at him to retire, but he just. Won’t. Move. On.

The trouble is, the amount of steady pressure to apply varies inversely proportionate to the amount of towel left on the roll. So it’s a guessing game for most people as to how hard to pull.

Seriously, we need a Cubi-Cal character for the misspellings

We have these in my area as well, though these stores are mostly considered vendors for poor folk.

Funny enough, the upscale stores have tons of self-checkouts and fewer cashiers. It’s as if bagging one’s own groceries with a cashier is for unfortunates, but doing both jobs yourself is in fashion.
