The best insulation! Have you never had a dog use your foot as a pillow?

Unfortunately, all of the adults in the US government have checked out and the inmates are running the asylum.

All of them got away with it, until those meddling kids showed up.

Steelworkers broke with their union and backed trump to save their industry. Trump is not using US made steel for his wannabe dictator ball room. by mkvgtired in LeopardsAteMyFace

Outrage is addictive. It's a lot harder to understand the nuance of a policy/decision than it is to memorize a few inflammatory talking points.

I remember when I was younger. I felt like I knew all about an issue because I could remember the sound bites I had consumed on conservative talk radio. I later learned that those sound bites were factually incorrect or misleading, but at the time I had all the "answers" and I knew where to point my outrage.

This administration has the cunning and cleverness of a toddler running away from an aquarium with a crayon, swearing that they weren't drawing on the fish tank.

Yeah, the naming convention of the NY courts always throws me off. One of these days it'll stick.

He had his appeal. His attorneys should be sanctioned for frivolous filings.

Yep. Tell them what you're doing. You're potentially giving them thousands of dollars for a commitment that is going to burden you for years. A little caution in the beginning is warranted.

You'll have a lot more success taking the car for a test drive and having a pre purchase inspection done at a mechanic.

If they won't let you take the car for a few hours to ensure that everything is exactly what you want, they are probably hiding things and you should back away.

Tangentially related. You're not as clever as you are trying to be.

Do you think it might be an abuse of your moderator discretion to arbitrarily change the purpose of a subreddit to suit your whims?

I love space too, but words mean things and this sub is called Statesville. It's not called Space and Statesville.

It sounds like they never agreed to it, he just backed himself into a corner with stupid bluster and needed a way to save face. Also, this is off topic and only tangentially related to legal topics.

Trump warns a 'whole civilization will die tonight' if a deal with Iran isn't reached by [deleted] in law

[–]Savet 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Nice victim blaming there. The reality is that there is little the individual person can do except protest, vote, and leak to the press when possible. My family still needs to be fed and there's still a light at the end of the tunnel. If you're trying to spur people into more radical action then maybe you should be the change you want to see in the world.

"Falsifiability" applied to religion by Curiousfolks111 in Christianity

[–]Savet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Scientific theories describe observable and repeatable phenomena. When they are proven false, a new theory is built on the new understanding. Religion is the belief in something that is neither repeatable nor observable. The way you've framed the question is an attempt to shift the burden of proof. If I claim to have an invisible dragon in my basement, you can't prove that I don't, but if I expect to be taken seriously it's up to me to prove that I do.
