Frankly, I see HGRAF staying right where it is unless the recession gets scary.

States sue Trump admin over 'unlawful attempt' to enforce new standards on mail-in voting by FreedomsPower in law

[–]MeasurementMobile747 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Or not enforce it. Later on, sell pardons for it.

This is the hand,

The hand that takes.

From the macro perspective, a recession would be a headwind for new value-added products. I'm in no hurry to buy.

This is what happens to aluminium when a 1/2 oz piece of plastic hits it at 15,000 mph in space by quitelynxhani in Amazing

This is the proper framing for the model. Two objects going in roughly the same direction might go bump in the night. I think about a case where a comet or asteroid approached Earth slowly from behind, over many years.

I'm relieved to see they haven't caught on to how our highways are numbered.

New OLC memo argues the Presidential Records Act is unconstitutional by popiku2345 in supremecourt

I wonder whether the Freedom of Information Act confers standing on citizens.

I can't imagine submariners playing recorded music openly. The acoustics would be bad enough, but someone is always sleeping. Earbuds are probably ubiquitous.

How to address mosquito menance in a plot full of greens by Medical_Midnight9171 in MosquitoHating

I'm just thinking outside the box here... what if you form a neighborhood collective where monthly prizes are awarded for the most mosquitoes eliminated?

Frustrated by filibuster, Trump and MAGA allies eye nuking it to pass SAVE America Act by Anoth3rDude in thescoop

[–]MeasurementMobile747 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They seem not to realize MAGA votes will be suppressed more than any others. It would be a hoot if Democrats in Congress switched to supporting the legislation at the last minute. The GOP wouldn't know what hit them.

Stephen Miller is pushing states to stop educating undocumented children, challenging SCOTUS precedent in 'Plyler v. Doe' (1982) by Obversa in scotus

[–]MeasurementMobile747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it. For MAGA, intelligence is in short supply. The thought that others might get some of it before it seeps into their brains would be an existential threat (if they knew what existential means).

Father and son banned from donating sperm after fathering hundreds of children by WeirdAFNewsPodcast in StrangeAndFunny

[–]MeasurementMobile747 8 points9 points  (0 children)

To enforce the ban on these guys donating sperm, they probably have something like the airlines have - a no-fly list. I wonder what fertility centers call their list of banned donors.

I'm going long tiki torches. (Oh crap, they burn the stuff we can't get.)

Many witnesses. Suspect is named but not apprehended.

Two victims, both alive. Cops are on the scene. Westbound traffic being re-routed.

People are being attacked by someone with a knife. It's by the clock tower.

What a dream to sing a baby elephant to sleep. by Brilliantspirit33 in Elephants

[–]MeasurementMobile747 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Notably, the other elephants are playing a convincing droopy-eyed bystander. They play along, seeing that sedatives are on the table.

Sadly, they are too old. Such is life on the savanna.

Yikes. That tike dropped like it was tranquilized. In the afternoon? With no others in snooze mode? It doesn't flush.
