I’ve been working from home for 10 years. The COVID break my daughter had was the first time I can remember NOT getting a Cold since literally ever. I’m masking more when I travel for work and I look forward to when more of us realize the benefits.
I’m not sure Texas is thinking this through. We’d build a wall and make them pay for it…
Not OP, but I think we’d be friends. I want left (no pun intended) alone to live my own life, but I don’t think people should be left to die because of the machine we’re in. I believe your rights extend to the point they interact with mine and vice versa. You’re rights can’t prevent mine and vice versa.
Did nobody tell these assholes the absolutely #1 rule? You DO NOT fuck with American ships… Keep this shit up, and things are going to get real “proportional” around here…
We’re on the same page re: mental healthcare. I was trying to convey I’m glad the stigma around it less and less with each generation, but we still have a ways to go.
You’re right, and you’re going to get downvoted for it. We have an inequality problem masking as a gun problem. We have a mental health crisis masking as gun problem.
Possible solutions to these situations aren’t fast and they don’t stir up emotions enough to get people to vote for you. Riling people up and telling them you can fix their problems fast gets votes; saying we have work to do doesn’t.
The stigma against mental healthcare won’t be gone in my child’s generation, but I am happy to see it is being accepted more than it was for mine. Of course, not thinking poorly of people for taking care of themselves doesn’t matter if people can’t afford to…
I’m extra shocked to see this in NJ; it is one of only two states where you are not allowed to pump your own gas. Efforts to change pump laws have been massively unfavorable because, among other things, they create jobs.
Neat if it happens, but it won’t change any opinions. Those already anti-Trump will point to it as another example of how corrupt Trump is and those already pro-Trump will point to it as an example of how the government is out to get him.
Fair point.
Shepard’s Pie… You’ve made a variation on Shepherd’s Pie.
I fell asleep during it in the theater. It was so insanely boring.
My answer won’t be as popular, but it’ll definitely get the attention of the right people on the customer’s side: charge HANDSOMELY for issues caused due to customers using the systems outside of agreemed to or published best practices.
Is this before or after the war started?
Pretty easy to make a socialist argument for cars IMHO.
It’d go something like, “the only way to ensure the right to mobility is equally distributed is to ensure every individual has what equates to a bus station in their own home.”
Using an ideology to support a desired outcome isn’t as hard as it should be.
Without teens and boomers, social media would be dead.

According to me and most of my buddies, the answer is diverticulitis in varying degrees.
The length of the 2nd Amendment is insanely short and likely thought to be quite obvious to the authors. Ironically, it has likely been more debated than any other Amendment. There have even been court cases that focus on how the placement of commas impacts the meaning.
To your comment on “well regulated,” the debate there has to do with how the phase has changed meaning over time; well regulated meant “well maintained” or “taken care of.” A well regulated clock, for instance, would have its gears cleaned and oiled at regular intervals.
Even in the groups that still hold that interpretation debate on whether the phrase then mean well-drilled/disciplined or well-stocked with arms.
With regard to at-home kits, the general rule/understanding was you could build your own with your own tools and any materials that were only 80% or less manufactured/machined to being a completed firearm.
The debate kinda went like this:
“Is a block of metal a gun?”
“Well, no…”
“So… How much work am I allowed to do to this block of metal before I get in trouble for selling it to somebody else?”
“Ionno… A lot, I guess? 80% sound good?”
So, people started selling 80% kits within the bounds of the law. They were blocks of material mostly milled with instructions, and sometimes tools, to finish the job.
The article doesn’t explain why these kits in question are getting blocked. I’m suspecting too many things were sold at once as part of the kit, though. 80% kits normally don’t have barrels, for instance.
Oh boy, let me tell you about the Presidential power that I’m most scared of: the President has 90 days to get Congressional approval for war. The idea being it used to take a long time to get people together to vote on things and even longer to mobilize. These days, though, you can conquer a country in under 90 days…
I can’t see it because it can’t see me.
