And I'm certainly the reverse. It means skim, noodle around, browse.

They're scared to oppose Biblical Marriage.

Once again "this Hellish innovation" has been around long enough to be recorded in cuneiform, while "this ancient tradition" was invented at 9:13 April 7th 2003.

The BrontΓ« definition is listed first, but that's the one I'd consider 'wrong'. The other guy died in 1894, so unlikely to have suffered through 3-cueing.

Weirdly I've yet to see accusations against Buffet or Soros. I must have filtered my timelines pretty well by now.

Of course he skips right over the fact that she was convicted and served out her sentence. Unlike those other guys.

That's just Infinite Monkeycage on Radio 4.

Without putting in place legislation to allow rounding of course.

Not "The Last Temptation of Christ" or at least "The Life of Brian"?

If only all those cops who threatened to quit actually did so, it'd also be easy to finance the civil service.

I fully expected it to be The Protocols. I've seen referenced recently, unfortunately.

It's embarrassing but I have to admit that it's only in the last few days I've realised that Bovino isn't Bongino. Mainly due to an offhand comment about chain-of-command ...

She's too young to be a Democratic senator, I fear.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's used by the Oathkeepers somehow.

Also, in whatever replaces the presidential residence put in an actual - not proverbial - sword of Damocles. Ensure that the president not only can, but almost certainly _will_ be replaced in office.

No. Nope. No. No restoring. Museum, yes, but leave the destruction as is. Do not remove the evidence of the rot.

Not my country, but I've had similar ideas about the US presidency: they should be paid handsomely, but it's also the final job they and their nearest family ever have.
