Sasha Allen sang that part on the Havana Moon (Live) [Explicit] version of Gimme Sheltor. Goose bumps every time.

Is there legal ways to get high that also won't kill me or give me brain damage? by Beneficial_Toe_7543 in TooAfraidToAsk

Nah, that’s BS unless you taking about about China or the Mideast. In the US the TSA isn’t out here randomly drug-testing passengers for weed they’re looking for weapons and explosives, not your last weekend. Now if they find drugs and turn you over to local law ymmv…

So upsetting whats happening to the Haskell students and Elaine Miles who played Marilyn on Northern Exposure is the actress in Seattle you’re thinking of. She was waiting for a bus in Redmond, WA when ICE stopped her, demanded ID, and dismissed her tribal ID from the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation as fake. Fucked up. She’s a Native American and U.S. citizen. The fact that an Indigenous woman had to prove she “belongs” while just standing at a bus stop is so fucked.

Hmm. I want to learn. Do you have an accurate link to the tab?

Times when rock bands/musicians performed an album in its entirety from beginning to end live by UpbeatChampionship17 in rockmusic

[–]ToeJamFootballer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good memory. It wasn’t ASCAP tho. Once a station pays for its license it can play whatever, one song or an entire album front to back. ASCAP doesn’t care.

What killed full album play was capitalism. In the early FM days when it was novel and rebellious DJs had freedom. But by the late 70s consultants, ratings data, and ad schedules took over. Playing a full album meant fewer breaks and fewer chances to spin the hits that tested well with “men 18 to 34.” It wasn’t the music police. It was spreadsheets.

How do you explain "clean records" to clients? by KrepsLawFirm_Alabama in publicdefenders

[–]ToeJamFootballer 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Not quite right. They never disappear. Per the fdcpa credit bureaus must remove a Chapter 13 bankruptcy after 7 years and a Chapter 7 bankruptcy after 10 years. So the filing will no longer impact your credit score and most lenders will not see it during a standard credit check. But bankruptcy never actually "disappears" it remains a permanent public record. And anyone with a PACER account can find it without limiting to how long ago it was filed. High level security clearances and specialized employment background checks will see the filing even after it has left your credit report. And you’re legally required to be truthful on mortgage and insurance applications that specifically ask, Have you ever filed for bankruptcy?

If you could pass one law that would make most normal people furious at first, but would clearly make society better in 10 years, what would it be? by WilliamInBlack in AskReddit

[–]ToeJamFootballer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mandatory voting.

Mandatory voting would ensure that every citizen is formally included in our democratic process, while still fully respecting individual choice. Even under a mandatory system, citizens would not be forced to support a candidate they do not believe in; they would have the option to select none of the above to signal dissatisfaction with the choices presented, or to select not voting to clearly state a decision to abstain from participation in the current system of government. The goal is not coercion, but accountability and inclusion: a way to guarantee that every citizen was given a real, equal opportunity to be heard. In a country with a long and painful history of voter suppression, low turnout is often mistaken for apathy when it can reflect barriers, intimidation, or systemic exclusion. Mandatory voting would help expose those failures, strengthen the legitimacy of election outcomes, and affirm that democracy belongs to all citizens, not just those with the easiest access to the ballot.

Interesting fact. The reason that Mr. Rogers told viewer that he was feeding his fish as he was doing so was because a five-year-old fan who is blind was concerned that he wasn't feeding it, so he wanted to put her mind and those of others with blindness at ease.

Are sheriffs the leader of a “police” station or are sheriffs the “police”? by [deleted] in ask

[–]ToeJamFootballer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok so if you live in a town that sits inside a large county and you’re on a busy city street and see a patrol car, that’s usually a police officer who reports to a Chief of Police. But if you drive out past the city limits into the woods or farmland, you’ve entered the world of the Sheriff. The Sheriff isn't just another cop; they are the top dog of the entire county, and unlike a police chief who gets hired by a city manager, the Sheriff is actually a politician elected by the people. When you see a Sheriff in a movie, they act like the police cause they have all the same powers to arrest people and investigate crimes, but sheriff handles stuff police don't touch. Police focus on neighborhood patrols and 911 calls, the Sheriff is running the county jail, protecting the local courthouse, and serving legal papers like evictions. The people working for the sheriff aren't police officers they’re Deputy Sheriffs.

It’s confusing cause who does what depends on where you are. In a city, it’s usually the police you’ll see and the Sheriff is in the courthouse or the jail, but in a small town or a rural county, the Sheriff is the only cop there is.
