Hey man, annex us, Oregon and Washington state, at least the western half. We would be happy to be an 11th province. Heck, I’d be fine with being a territory.

This made me giggle way too much.

On my days off.

New poster is pretty slick and to the point

Do you mean Brett Ratner, the Melania Trump guy?

Brett Ratner will forever after be known as “the Melania Trump guy”. He should know that the orange stain doesn’t wash off.

Also, the CBS Evening News is, ostensibly, an actual NEWS program. Rachel Maddow is doing a commentary show about current events; not pretending to objectively report them.

Don't bother arguing about whether ICE is a police force or a military force. It's neither. It behaves as a disorganized, violent mob, cursing, shouting contradictory orders, and attacking unarmed citizens on a whim. It is deployed to create fear and chaos, not to enforce laws or establish order.

Every firm associated with these “people” needs to be blocked, embargoed, banned from operating in the EU, Canada and any other civilized nation.

Well, I was just saying it’s a useful skill, not a necessity.

At leaft we do not have to worry about the eßtßet.

Need? Not often, but there are various public analog clocks around downtown here, and it’s nice to be able to just look up and know what time it is.

But I also wear a wrist watch.

Some people did. Most people did not have that problem. A map is a map, whether it’s on a screen or on paper.

My mom’s 1966 Peugeot 404 had the foot button for high beams, as did my dad’s 1969 Ford Mustang.

I actually prefer it to having it on the turn signal stalk.

Telling time from an analogue clock is a useful skill.

Yes. I get the same notifications from donations through ActBlue.

Who is, then?

“Historically” by which you mean “not recently”, right?

Were you dropped on your head as a child?

“Shishna”?

Not to mention, our taxes on them are laughably low. The threat of “high taxes” is us saying “hey, let’s tax these guys in line with Northern European tax laws”, you know that they aren’t going to go anywhere. Hell, they don’t even leave California.

Gotta love it after the stupid NYP article complaining about her “expensive” boots.

Right, point being that the MOCA test sheet shown in the photo is probably not the one on the test that he took.

Different sheets have different animals on them. They change them up.

Yeah, the animals (and random words, and letter order) change on different sheets. One of the coping mechanisms for dementia sufferers is habit. If they do the same thing regularly, they don’t have to “remember” to do it (also a cope for ADHD!).

So you change up the tests.

I think they do them more at the onset of concern about dementia. My mom used to get them every six months to track her decline. Now it’s been 12 years, she rarely gets them because there isn’t much point; she obviously has little to no memory.

The tests have different animals on different sheets, they also change the random words and random letters.

My mom has these tests sometimes, she has bad dementia.

I’d read the first two or three books and then watch the series.

I agree that the series did a great job sticking to the books, and I actually thought that the series version of Belter patois was better than the books.

The reason for the latter is that people coming INTO the city fear urban crime.

People going INTO the suburbs/countryside fear being attacked for who they are. These aren’t the same thing.

Okay. But we circle back to “people who *can’t* give consent get sub-standard care”.

And in reality, that means that women/AFAB people get sub-standard care in any case that doesn’t involve clear and easy ways to give consent.

That’s it.
