The UrbanHell Reddit doesn't like Phoenix, but I like Phoenix.

The United States Weather Bureau's narrative climate summaries were colorful in the old days, as in this example from the first decade of the twentieth century re: the Salt River Valley.

D*mn, say what you will, but she is meeting the moment, rhetorically at least.

1. There is no such party as "the Democrat Party";

2. If you say "Ree-publican", you might be a small-town girl who got on a bus in Sioux City in 1927 with nothing but a dream of being a star. And if so, you might be too old to vote; consult state law.

Bushra with another traffic-stopping take.

Also, Delia Ramirez was born in Chicago; she can't be denaturalized, because she was never naturalized.

Look at these two clownish representatives' districts, though. Both awful. The Illinois one is a really atrocious gerrymander.

Ogles is a bad actor and not a person of suitable character to be a United States Representative, in my opinion – but actually, both his and Ramirez's sentiments are pretty bad.

'In themo sehsten manade gisentit ward engil Gabriel fon Gote in thie burg Galilee thero namo ist Nazareth, zi thiornun gimahaltero(?) gommanne themo namo war Ioseph fon huse Davider.'

Although most of that material was produced in Latin, a handful of documents like this Tatian are among the earliest substantial documents produced in the German language.

Fulda Abbey had been established in 744 by a disciple of Saint Boniface as part of the mission to the Germanic pagans.

By the time of the original Tatian bilingual, nearly a century later, it was an important scriptorium churning out a large amount of written material.

Around the year 830, a monk under Rabanus Maurus at the Abbey of Fulda, East Francia, translated a Latin version of Tatian's Diatessaron into Old High German.

The only surviving copy has been in Sankt Gallen since the tenth century.

Among the greatest of the OHG manuscripts.

OK, 19%.

There's someone off camera doing supporting vocals, but you never see them, so I don't know if it's a woman or a child...

There's always a х*йать еб*ть guy

I might question the government's decision to prioritize the deportation of such a person, but surely, if they are going to deport him, they could give him a written order and a couple weeks to pack his things and say his goodbyes?

Maybe demand he check in on his way out?

Imagine a 65-year-old Mexican citizen who has lived in the US illegally for 30 years. The government has decided to deport him.

Is it necessary to send masked officers to his home or workplace at any hour? Tackle him to the ground?

What is he going to do, run away?

It's been several days since news broke of SPD and CDU officials / former officials meeting with representatives of the Russian state and Gazprom.

What has been done about this?

Roses are red,
Trump, you must flatter

Rubio on sanctioning Russia: "I think our hope is to avoid that and to sort of figure out a way that we can get the fighting to stop". You've had over 6 months, chaps, but no rush.

US politics are shifting.

Even a lot of us who don't support (and broadly can't stand) the Palestine movement, etc., have had it with Israel.

If you are gay or bi, and particularly if you're male, TERFs are not your friends.

They do not mean us well.

Similarly with the anti-Islamophobia crowd. Islam is us-phobic.

(The traditional strains of most religions are, but Islam, uniquely, insinuates itself among leftists.)

Weighing in on the Online Safety Act.

The Maui live cam: came for the tsunami, stayed for the hypnotic sea and velvet twilight settling across the land.

...our areas of strategic interest is elevated to political prominence for domestic reasons.

Let's stop allowing this mistake to be made. Let's stop wasting precious time, money, and policy bandwidth on this region of the world.

When I was living in the UK, I saw signs posted regarding the Labour Party's Kashmir policy.

I thought, why on earth should a UK political party have a Kashmir policy, or care about who is in charge of Kashmir?

This is the kind of that can happen when a place outside of...

Beyond basic humanitarian considerations, the Israel / Palestine / etc. conflict is a foreign ethnoreligious conflict that should not inherently concern us.

The Middle East shouldn't much concern us.

What should concern us is what we are drawn into supporting.

That is a relief.

This is the correct decision.

Counterpoint: Let's not normalize this.
