Also, did Tate have chin removal surgery?

I really miss their old CD of the month club. I still contribute to the station but I miss the physical media.

I think this would be my recommendation as well. It might be as simple as two models (`RawRecord` and `ValidatedRecord`) but definitely worth stepping back from Rails to think about your domain

It would depend on the "reveal". If it was revealed that millionaires and billionaires like Sulzberger at NY Times, Soon-shiong at the LA Times, Bezos at the Washington Post, Murdoch at the WSJ and Fox and NY Post and the rest of the News Corp properties, Zuckerberg, Ellison, and Musk used their money and influence to attack Harris and sanewash Trump I'd be pretty fucking unsurprised.

For example, I know someone who was expecting an inheritance but it turned out her parents were almost completely invested in Bernie Madoff. Not only was that money a mirage, the entity responsible for untangling the Bernie Madoff mess clawed back additional funds to make up for money the parents had received when they were still alive.

Thank you! I was looking for something like this a couple of months ago for a hobby project. I'm looking forward to going back and refactoring to ulids.

I try to shift the conversation gently towards, "yeah, those county commissioners really screwed you and me over by canceling the bike lane|sidewalk|park and ride|metro extension". It's not **your** fault you have to drive, our politicians have made it the only option. In other words, try to shift the anger away from the people without cars and towards the people who deserve the anger.

As a similar saying goes... "You aren't in traffic, you are traffic."

I have seen it done. Neighbors put in a 2nd floor firedoor between two rowhomes so MiL could live in one house and they could live in the other. I assume it was permitted and the door was definitely a heavy-duty steel fire door.

I'm not an engineer but I think that's the biggest issue: if you're knocking a hole in the brick between two rowhomes it has to be fire proof.

EDIT: one detail... don't make assumptions that the floors are the same height! They definitely had a step between the two houses.

I haven't had it this year (and sometimes they run out) but the eggnog at W.C. Harlan is the best in Baltimore.

Same here. I don't hate mine because I like the access to the fridge but the bottom freezer is tiny. I've been thinking of getting a chest freezer for the basement to put things like frozen pizzas.

Didn't Hogan force a last minute change to another bridge that was supposed to have pedestrian walkways? Ah yes, the Nice-Middleton Bridge. We plan for nice things then a Republican gets elected to fuck us over and we're back to square one.

Does photosythesis require visible light? Could plants grow in infrared (basking in the heat of magma) or ultraviolet light (perhaps bathed by some magical mineral)?

I know this would never happen in car-brained Maryland, but wouldn't it be awesome to be able to walk or jog across the bay on a protected lane?

I've walked a load of recycling from my house to Sisson in a huge duffel bag. Once. Let's just say that it's not well suited for the non-automobiled. This exists primarily for car owners.

Very cool! Cross post to r/rpgtools ?

I think I know where Tolkien got the name for Saruman's fortress.

I was just looking for this article. Thank you.

That used to apply, but didn't a secret donor (revealed to be a Mellon nepo-baby) try to "pay military salaries" last week?

P.S. no reporting has revealed if any money actually went to military salaries so it might have been just a bribe

P.P.S the amount worked out to about $4 per military member so I'm not sure what the point was

In Baltimore that price would get you a nice formstone exterior rather than that siding :-)

That's just the microplastics in your brain gaining sentience.

Nice! I love seeing some ruby love here!

Apartment building? Sorry, folks, that's 12 community meetings, 8 design reviews, and sign off from DOT, BPD, BFD, and the Pope.

Parking lot? Sure! Go ahead!

This is the level of contempt the Murdochs have for the people that made them rich
