Unless they fit the criteria, we're not supposed to talk about incompetent people in positions of power.

You can prepare your kids for their natural pendulum swing. I told mine it's natural to rebel and do the opposite of what your parents do, make sure you understand, and don't unint…

TB was basicallty gone from the US. Until we accepted millions of unscreened people from outside the US where TB was more common.

Why are we shocked? Computers should generally give us the same output with the same input.

We're not governed by poetry on statues. If we decide we're full, that's ok.

It's still too high. Illegal immigration often ruins the idea of immigration in the minds of the native population.

The proletariat can rock that soviet tech, making some lips/forth/prolog insanity. Once they're done, I'll simulate it at 10,000 times native speed on one core of my Apple iThing.

TLDR: Other than the child identifying as a wolf, the child doesn't identify as a wolf. And you're a bully for even noticing. Bully.

More awesome young men for my company to hire! I used to try and make my team look like a Star Trek crew. Not anymore. Competence over anything.

Nowadays? It's so bad and cringeworthy that my young sons picked up on the STEM girlie nonsense and are actively rebelling against it and running with whatever they have. Leaving t…

I don't think you can understand the 1960s without seeing her glorious movie, The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie It captures the tension of social norms and rebellion and, if one pays a…

How we treat family members is the most accurate indication of our decency. We chose our friends, so their company is easy. It's when we're forced to reckon with people we don't ch…

I want to reiterate the thanks as well. Updates work so much better than in the past. Dealing with twenty files of this does get annoying. >>>>>>> #Fobar Version 1.1 ====== #Foobar…

You may think that, but I couldn't possibly comment. I was trying to convey that laws should be carefully written, not to motivate people to do things that keep them inside the law…

I love trees. I plant a lot of them. I noticed one friendly neighbor remark that one of our oldest cedars was a fine specimen and that he wanted to register it. It got girdled, and…

Not just a China problem. Twitter and Facebook seem drastically more polarising nowadays. We're allowed to talk about things that were taboo until just recently: the 3rd world colo…

The best thing about America is that we'll eventually colonize the moon, and we'll have Americans homeless there too.

Your sunscreen and mylar blankets ideas are gold; I will swipe that idea for our church's packs. We have two items that are not on your list that our church has: a micro-sized rubb…

It's more of a modern problem: Old-school homeless would shit in the toilet. New school homeless on fentanyl sometimes leave drug paraphernalia. Hence, businesses won't let randos …

Giving people money isn't the same thing as welfare. Ask any drug addict what they would do with more money. Most of them are truthful.

Congress will have to be specific, yes. And we'll be able to vote them out if we don't like what they say.

Indeed! "A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the majority discovers it can vote itself largess out of the public treasury." -Elmer T…

If they weren't conscious, then their love for us would be meaningless.

There's always a reference. It doesn't have to be the boss; it could be a co-worker. Generally written, it is hard to get, but almost always available with a phone call after hours…

The side that tells us that men can become women.
