Bullshit games you invented with your friends were always the best we had this shit where had a small room with hardwood floors and nothing in it that we would just whip a bouncy ball in and try to avoid getting high by it and it was some of the most fun shit ever

Other states: Stick with the current vaccination schedule it's cool.

Ohio: Well, it's not THAT different from our current school requirements.

Narrator: It's very different as the Ohio Revised Code 3313.671 includes requirements for hepatitis B and meningitis ACWY.

I am once again horrifically reminded of a great documentary student film at Wright State whose subject was someone with rage and impulse control issues trying to become a cop. When a film professor asked, the student said, "yup, they're in the police academy".

One reason I favor impeaching Noem is because it's a political process for a political problem. No, this will not stop ICE enforcement action but YES it would be an opportunity to educate the public about DHS & perhaps begin to lay a foundation for dismantling it.

These authors wanted to know whether mothers face discrimination in hiring, even when they are equally qualified as other applicants.

So they ran two experiments...

"This is a very thinky town" is just about the perfect summation of how horrible these people are.
If you made a Venn diagram of every weird person I knew in Silicon Valley during the first dot-com boom, centrifuged it, extracted the pellet, and re-suspended it in high-proof eugenics with a splash of AI, you'd end up with something like this.

It'll take a strong stomach to read this "gift" link.

There are a lot of better series that folks have listed (M.A.S.H. for example) but The Good Place just about got it right: there's meaningful closure for all the main characters, and somehow a series about moral philosophy was a hit on network tv.
Given that apparently the Stranger Things finale was meh (idk, didn't watch it, just the scuttlebutt) and we're not that far removed from the disastrous GOT finale that retroactively made everyone have never cared about the show:

If you’ve never listened to this album it’s very intense. Sufjan often is but combining it with Christmas is a lot.

Several songs seem to be about suicide but Sister Winter at least clearly mentions it.

I myself have only recently been emotionally OK to listen to it all again

I love this casual note on a soccer player's injury, "out for 6 weeks with a broken shin bone". THAT'S THE TIBIA, THE MAJOR WEIGHT-BEARING BONE IN THE LOWER LEG.

Lauren's point re: fetish for getting yelled at remains evergreen. Blocking him removes the ability to feed his fetish, and removes his nonsense from the feed.

Condemning the abduction of a sovereign leader because you're mad about a process violation and worry we won't properly occupy the country for 25 years is the most insane, Democrat-brain response that I have ever seen.
However, I disagree with President Trump’s use of U.S. military forces without Congressional approval & worry deeply about this Admin’s follow through on foreign policy interventions.

A recurring “AI” evangelist tactic is using it for tasks that were already solved by tech that is more deterministic, faster, and uses less energy, but has been downgraded or de-emphasised in recent years by software companies

Term limits allow lobbyists to run the show even more than they do now. My answer is to end the influence of lobbying by ending the private funding of campaigns. Just go all the way. These are public offices. They should not and cannot continue to be privately owned.
We need term limits for US Senators, Congressional representatives, and SCOTUS.

Also, we need leaders who actually enforce the US Constitution.
