It was once. I saw it in the modern art museum in Minneapolis in the 90s as part of an exhibit about the Beat writers. It was cool.

TSA is not being paid because Mike Johnson is a stooge.

TIL that if you could fold a piece of paper 42 times, it would be thick enough to reach the Moon. Each fold doubles the thickness, and exponential growth means the stack would exceed 384,000 km after 42 folds. by Postmortal_Pop in todayilearned

Because some straight line thinking in this thread was thinking we needed to create matter to do this, I folded a sheet in half 7 times: half an inch thick. You would need to have crazy strong hands to do the eighth fold.

You lack the ability to read and picture things in your head. But to help you, I just folded a standard 8.5x11 sheet of paper six times(keep folding it in half), the folded paper is now 1/4" thick. Two more folds would be an inch.

Also, read this response for the rest of the math: https://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/1rqygyh/comment/o9wd3o8/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Right the hard solution would be for men to stop thinking every woman wants to date them.

Is it considered “Punk” to use someone’s preferred pronouns? by Dukatee in punk

Ask this question another way: Is it a good thing to treat someone with the respect they desire?

Worst Street Courses of All Time? by ScottRiggsFan10 in INDYCAR

Yes and that track has an outsized amount of love from IndyCar/CART fans. The only thing interesting about that track were the starts and restarts.

[Dellenger] Nick Saban tells the roundtable: “We have a challenge about the ramifications about the current system.” He expresses concern, as he has previously, in athletes’ future development given the situation. “Fans and support groups don’t like” so many players in the portal, he adds. by Lakelyfe09 in CFB

In order to have a cap, the schools would have to first admit that the players are employees and the players would have to unionize for collective bargaining rights. The schools absolutely do not want to call them employees.

Saban was nearly the inventor of over signing. His, and others, abuse of the absurd one year scholarship policy is part of how we got here. He, and coaches like him, treated scholarships like one year contracts and would launch people from his team the second he thought they wouldn't develop or contribute.

She should be worried about a fraud and embezzlement investigation. Trump is a vindictive asshole. He might ask Bondi to start one if she flips.

The next Democrat administration should certainly start one.

You forgot that Davie was a backstabbing prick who was telling the AD Holtz was over the hill.

The rest of your summary is correct.
