Biden is a weird case in the way that LBJ is a weird case: did a lot of amazing things that were well beyond what other recent presidents accomplished, but also made a massive error in judgment about one really important thing.

I don't think the partisan split among people who own 1-2 guns is all that large. The partisan split among people who own 10+ guns is enormous, but they don't seem to understand that you can only effectively shoot one at a time.

And you can't even see the forced movement/attrition of the Turkic peoples of the Caucasus on this. (Or the holodomor-like famine for the locals in the 1930s.)

I see that I can go to the first play of the period and edit it through the play, but this is very tedious (also unclear why the app is getting these wrong sometimes to begin with).

This isn't quite what I'm asking about. In my monthly/yearly inights, I can't necessarily use the app to do BGG best/worst new-to-me lists, because it both incorrectly marks things as new in that period that aren't and fails to mark some things as new that are.

The "good" news is that the more widespread the problem, the faster it ceases to work as blackmail. The point where everyone just assumes the porn is all fabricated draws near.

Many academic conventions are framed as preparation for the workplace/adulthood, but timed tests don't really make sense as one of them. Many work activities have deadlines for completion, but it is quite unusual for a job to restrict you from starting earlier.

Most craft stores will cut a piece of felt to size. It's both cheaper and more pleasant in texture than neoprene.
