When you discuss other people, you should emphasize that they are People, not that they are Other.

Better to just seal the holes and insulate the north wall if you insist on getting rid of it. No need to tear it out. Also, everyone’s got a fridge anyway now but if you don’t have backup power it could be quite handy as is.

Haha! I am not superstitious or easily creeped out, so I would simply not mention it’s backstory to my wife.

Oh my god. When we first moved to town we rented a little cottage cottage-sized house on Livingston that had a cold pantry (I called it a cold cabinet but pantry makes more sense) and bins. The bins had facing which made them look like three drawers.

The reporter whose devices were seized isn’t charged with anything afaik. Suppressing evidence would benefit her source, but in the meantime she’s still cut off from her secure comms and all her notes (not just ones pertaining to this source or this story. What is her remedy? Anything? [sincere]

Is this how ALT TEXT is written in Korean? Because I tried to click them and nothing came up.

From @theguardian.com:

In Chicago, of 92 people arrested for assaulting or impeding officers last fall, 74 cases have resulted in no charges; in 13 cases, charges were filed and dismissed; and 5 charged cases still pending. Similarly, In Minneapolis as of last month there have been no convictions.

WD-40 breaks down a lot of adhesives.

It’s also very flammable, so if you get frustrated you can just torch the whole car.

Up to you.

That’s just not true. You don’t have to be Senate-confirmed to have authority delegated to you by someone who is.

A tariff β€œrefund” mostly goes to whoever wrote the tariff check: the importer of record. That’s not the same person who paid more at the register. So refunds -- if they're offered -- might sound like consumer relief, but in reality, they're corporate windfalls.

One thing to understand is that jackasses like me graduated from law school basically believing that, while nothing like <all this> was realistic in our lifetimes, if it did happen, then our Supreme Court with all its flaws would respond roughly like this judge did, maybe 9-0.

So if these soldiers know their own worth, the best of them, the most valuable soldiers, will price themselves out of the exact jobs that they are best at, leaving the weakest soldiers to protect the country.

Tell me Putin isn’t laughing his ass off right now.
