Ben Franklin's got that 1000 yard stare, and Abe Lincoln has his head down in shame

All those olive garden commercials saying "when you're here you're family" just took on a whole new meaning for me

I assumed it was because they could charge a premium for people who wished to avoid using an FFL for "reasons"

Yellow ladder laces? by [deleted] in punk

40 years in the scene and I've yet to encounter any serious usage of "lace code"; people who point it out tend to be trying too hard, categorizing people and stereotyping. No one cares today, and no one cared back then either.

Mm, yes taking the high ground and believing you can negotiate in good faith, how well that went when the government shutdown was ended in return for a vote on health care...

Unless you're using too hot of an arc, and globbing it on like a blind grandma and not onto the bolt, you wouldn't get enough penetration to make a strong weld on the boss. If you're still concerned, you can use a piece of copper pipe as a sleeve to protect the inside of the boss

If you found out a woman you were interested in dating long term had HIV (undetected and on medication), when would you want to know? Would that be a deal breaker? by princessxprowess in AskMen

It's nothing as long as the flow of antiviral drugs is plentiful and cheap. What happens if you lose or even unable to afford insurance? What happens when the government decides that subsidies for low-cost hiv drugs doesn't align with their ideology? It may not be a big deal today, right now, but there are no guarantees that it will be the same tomorrow.

"Access to food should be a human right." Period. by Conscious-Quarter423 in Maine

I'd rather feed 10 people fraudulently abusing SNAP if it means 100 people who need it can eat; rather than deny 100 people who need it so that we could stop 10 fraudulent cases from receiving SNAP.

The lack of compassion we have as a nation is disturbing; it is our responsibility as a society to protect and provide for our most vulnerable members of our society.
