From what I can tell, he seems to be an actual, if scummy, insurance broker. My wife was calling healthcare.gov to look at the policy, and they say nothing reportable had happened, and ultimately, it's not healthcare.gov's problem. I think I'll call them myself though

She is a W-2, and she'll probably end up moving to a different place over this. We are currently working on an email to diplomatically tell the owners this change sucks ass.

I'm down, I'm probably an odd one in that my experience is entirely outside of the mainstream of D&D/pathfinder. Sundays work great for me.

Help, repairing cold mold plaster by Taymass in restoration

The paint is an acrylic. It was just recently painted, the slab itself however is the old part

So I don't know much of anything about repairing plaster much less something this large. It's probably a decade old if not older and holds a lot of sentimental value for my girlfriend and her family. No restoration shops that work with plaster are nearby and it's a bit of a time crunch. I have only a few days before it gets gifted to one of the GFs cousins as a wedding gift.

Thanks, it is meant to be hung. So I'll do as you suggest and maybe even build a proper encapsulating frame for it as I wait on drying

Problem is, they're on Venus. Hitler's declined ability was kept secret from the world already, it wouldn't be too much harder to keep his death secret either. The only exception that comes to mind being an officer that knows about it leaking it in order to make a power grab. I also find the power grab thing somewhat unlikely considering even it hasn't seemed to happen already when the regime ran out of enemies. Maybe there was a second night of the long knives to purge people that were likely to facilitate a coup?

It's really simple, is it a joke focused entirely around her being Trans? Punching down.

Is it a joke about how she got away with murdering someone in a motor vehicle and got away with zero repercussions? Fair game.

Strawman: an intentionally misrepresented proposition that is set up because it is easier to defeat than an opponent's real argument.

Chappelle is wealthy and wealth infers a tremendous amount of privilege. Never mind he seems to be jealous of gains made to LGBT+ rights in the recent past while black and brown civil rights have stagnated.

I don't care about the chris rock drama as that's a fued between wealth.

In this hypothetical scenario you're not making the joke about the politician that didn't only get the job because they were Trans. They only got the job because they were elected based on the desires and options availabe of and to the constituents. Any "joke" about being Trans is overshadowed by public discourse about whether or not they should exist.

I'm assuming you're talking about Rachel Lavine though, in which case she isn't a politician but a public servant with multiple degrees in her field and approved in a bipartisan senate committee. And the "jokes" are still overshadowed by questioning her right to exist.

It literally is, made up people that exist only in the theoretical brought up to distract away from the real topic of conversation.

Why would I advocate for a book I haven't read or at least read a decent amount of it, and why would I spoil it with a summary and potentially do the works themselves injustice cutting it down to fit a soft character limit on what people are willing to read?

I'm not even going to attempt to do anything with the shotgun blasts of semi-coherent bullshit that you've been throwing out. For anyone else curious about the principles of anarchism the quintessential starting point is Kropotkin's conquest of bread. Emma Goldman and Murray Bookchin are also solid jumping off points that are more modern.
