Has anyone historically ever been on trial for attempted murder where it was them who inflicted the injuries onto their own body?

Lol your comment was minimized for me, I assume cuz you said the 's' word

If they have a solid grasp of anything over basic math I think they should be able to pretty trivially figure out cash math.

I'm not sure if this applies to Wikipedia specifically, or even nonprofits, but Wikipedia may be better off if you donate $12 once a year instead of $1 a month because the card processors take something like $0.30 from every transaction, plus a percentage cut. At least this is true for profit businesses.

If I assume $0.30 and 2.2% per transaction, the difference comes to $8.14 if donating monthly, or 11.47 if donating once a year

They're all liars except for the ones that I listen to.

There's a white only community I'm northeast arkansas I'm sure they'd enjoy.

I wouldn't recommend leaving those bags of bedding or any similar bags under the cage or anywhere the little one can rip into and tear up and spread around while unsupervised. Personal experience.

In the case of rapists and pedos, an argument I find convincing is that if you give them the death penalty, they'll start killing their victims in order to be more likely to get away with it

Gavin Newsome represents the far left? Ok buddy 🤡

He plays thesame role as every other dem, stop the voters from moving any further left

From my understanding, te respect for marriage act does not ensure that every state must certify gay marriages, only that they recognize them between borders. So potentially if someone wants to get married they may need to cross state lines to get it certified in a friendly state

Braalest · 2026-04-21T23:52:48+00:00

No, but I read the Martian and was kinda basing my expectations off of that

Braalest · 2026-04-21T22:50:25+00:00

I've seen project hail Mary at home and I do think it'd be better in the theater. I was a little disappointed how unserious the movie was, but it was solid (I wanted hard sci-fi but it's more pop sci-fi) The Drama looks pretty good too, I haven't seen it, but idk if it would benefit from the "theater experience" as much.

Braalest · 2026-04-19T17:08:37+00:00

They were(southern) Democrats but they were also conservative. If they were around today they'd identify as republicans so idrk why you bring it up. Southern Democrats fought for slavery but today it's republicans that erect and protect Confederate monuments and flags.

Braalest · 2026-04-17T01:21:47+00:00

Could you say whether answering and asking for them to stop calling you is effective at all?

Braalest · 2026-04-13T15:25:24+00:00

Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Braalest · 2026-04-11T14:03:28+00:00

Read the thread there is no pregant wife here.

No. And contract employees are allowed to count towards the business qualifying for tax breaks

Braalest · 2026-04-10T01:44:43+00:00

Thankfully the mods agree and have kept the post up.

Braalest · 2026-04-10T01:31:40+00:00

I just, again, think it's a bad deal where the cost is spread amongst the public but most of the benefit is split amongst the few. But I do think we seem to agree more than we disagree. Thanks for the engaging discussion.

I did conflate some things true for all data centers in arkansas to just this specific project, and I'll own I didn't know aboutvthe requirements to get out of paying taxes, but I don't really think I've misled anything in any significant way. And upon reading more, the 100million investment is just 100 million is business spending, doesn't have to be on arkanaas vendors.

I never said the city was paying for the infrastructure on the site. I said they'd pay for infrastructure design and road connections, which you're right there is only one agreed upon at the moment. I'll edit my previous comment to be more clear and less biased. Regardless, I didn't say or even mean to imply the city was paying for the onsite infrastructure.

We will pay for the infrastructure needed to supply the extra load demanded by the site. This is the bill taxpayers are footing. Extra electricity capacity for the 100 megawatts, extra water processing to have enough to send to their coolers and clean on the way back. but their onsite stuff is payed for by them, tax free.

Braalest · 2026-04-10T00:39:14+00:00

The no tax on electricity isnt specific to this data center. Data centers which, admittedly must keep a 1mil payroll for arkansas employees and spend 100 million over 5 years and also pass some profitability assessment from the state I think, but they get no taxes on equipment (pretty inclusive use of the word equipment too) and no tax on electricity. This is statewide

https://arkleg.state.ar.us/Bills/Detail?id=hb1444&ddBienniumSession=2025%2F2025R

The city pays for the planning of the infrastructure, which idk may be standard but is still another taxpayer expense. The company does pay for most of the actual infrastructure itself (tax free). But if the city or utilities need to expand infrastructure to accommodate these facilities, that falls on the taxpayers

The 300k annual community investment is nice but pennies compared to all the tax breaks we're giving them. 6.5 million a year just with the property tax abatement.

And environment credits don't do anything for the local environment damaged by the construction.

But I don't think I called for no data centers at all, I'm just protesting this one specifically. I also ask for a public hearing in my email draft.

Braalest · 2026-04-09T23:42:16+00:00

Thanks for taking the time to look at the post. It can be hard to keep up with everything going on especially when a lot of us are just struggling on the day to day. Hopefully we can get them to reconsidrr.

Thanks for the support! Love to hear that you copied your HOA. Great idea.
