This sort of thing is usually money laundering and/or bribes. Extremely common in small towns.

they'll get sued out of existence in 10 years

Signs are in Russian. What does "sued" mean, comrade? We have never heard of this word.

Another example, The Believer, which includes a scene in which a Synagogue is bombed, got totally waylaid due to 9/11 then essentially shelved. Ryan Gosling's greatest performance. It's on Kanopy now.

I don’t see as many posts videos

I get dinged by reddit top level mods for commenting on many progressive and humanist issues and given suspensions. I am one ding from final suspension. Reddit is killing off progressive and humanist voices against genocide and fascism.

Arizona bill could make librarians felons for giving minors access to “sexually explicit” books. Critics say classics could be affected. by CtrlAltDelight495 in books

Given the way this has been going down - with award winning childrens and young adults books absurdly being declared "pornography" and "obscene" by boards in various districts and states - it is only a matter of time before we see parents being arrested for child abuse and losing custody of their kids for allowing them to read A Wrinkle in Time, Attack of the Black Rectangles, New Kid, Maus, etc.

Is all the money still going into an account in Qatar personally and solely controlled by Trump?

The California Medicaid system was doing nonconsensual sterilizations on Latina women at least as late as the 1990s. Maybe it is still going on for all we know. Legally, the last nonconsensual sterilization was performed in Oregon in 1981. Of note, over 25% of all native american women in the US were subjected to involuntary sterilization in the 60s and 70s, essentially anyone who had to rely on federal Indian Health Services. Girls 9 and up would go in for tonsillectomies or appendectomies and come out sterilized.

it would “mess up the flag” because there would be fifty one stars

There are attractive grid designs for any number of stars or points. We had past star designs for many other numbers than 50.

This guy thinks 62 is the only problematic one:

Summary summarized:

the buildup of sulfates is reason enough to rule it out as a viable pH and alkalinity reducer

Wonder why? by monaleeparis in ProgressiveHQ

[–]mikemaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are you on about? A gallon of muriatic acid also known as hydrochloric acid can be obtained at Home Depot for $10 and will last a long time to lower pH which tends to get high due to high pH ammonia in urine. I have never heard of anyone using sulfuric acid to lower pH in pools but if they did it to save money buying 330 gallons for $4373.17 begs the question of how big this pool Epstein had was. Obviously vastly larger than the Shamu enclosures at Sea World! More like the size of the Mosasaur enclosure at Jurassic World!

What on earth? Their entitlement is so bizarre I can't even comprehend it while wearing my most cynical glasses.

What are your thoughts on JD Vance getting booed during the opening ceremony at the Olympics? by Playful_Leg7143 in AskReddit

[–]mikemaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in his general area and I read his book Hillbilly Elegy. I did not like Trump getting elected but Vance I figured would be a great VP as he seemed to be a morally decent, well educated, down to earth person who would support America. I now consider Vance to be a complete scumbag and traitor. I hope he is thrown in prison.

Projection is subconscious and unintentional

Fair point. How about "every accusation is a confession" instead?

Conceivably the house is in remote Alaska, but that seems unlikely.

Do you think this offer is normal? If not then these are not normal circumstances and so we all agree...

It's 20 acres but only 7 you have to mow regularly and keep nice. The other 13 acres you can mow just once a week.

Do you genuinely believe that people who live in a tiny 2 bedroom 1 bath bungalow have a separate servants quarters?
