    "Support me on this I'll support you on that" is typical and routine in the halls of legislators, although much quieter. If we look at this as DeSantis telling Disney "support me o…

    Just want to say that here in the US, if your employer ever doesn't pay you what you think you're owed, contact the Department of Labor. There's a division dedicated to making sure…

    Just to add my insignificant voice, I too was put off by the use of the word. I'm not familiar with the expression "pimp my ride" despite being American from birth. But I do know w…

    When the newspaper prints what time is sunrise, I don't write it to protest that the sun doesn't go anywhere; it's the Earth that is spinning on its axis. Sunrise is just the way w…

    Depends where. Some routes in NYC are downright suicidal. I was knocked off my bike on one occasion in a roundabout. Injured my knee and swore off cycling to work. There are unfort…

    You don't need separate kitchens to keep a kosher home. Both the meat and dairy ovens are located in the same kitchen. Separate kitchens are only needed for food establishments, to…
