    I think they’d get more support if they defined what exact changes they wanted to make. I’m at least encouraged that someone is trying to do this the right way rather than by fiat.

    @Klaus said in (Another) fire at Notre Dame: That's a different Notre Dame, not the Notre Dame. Yes, just I was mistaken. It's just another church in France ablaze.

    That elephant was perturbed, but not crazy pissed. When they're really angry, they tend not to trample. They tend to grab the offending critter with their trunk and slam the critter (or person) repeatedly into nearby trees or into the ground. Oftentimes, they don't quit until they only have a remnant of the body left in their trunk, having scattered pieces around them.

    @taiwan_girl said in Trump’s VP short list: @Axtremus said in Trump’s VP short list: ... Donald has lost the support of virtually every single person who served with him when he was in the Oval Office--including the vice president ... And a lot/most of them were not politicians. Well, maybe he'll do better this time in the Oval Office.

    @kluurs said in Who are the victims? A social media harassment case.: TikTok has erupted on this one - with hundreds of people taking up the mother's cause - and sharing information that the mother did not - i.e. doxing the individuals involved. I have a problem with this doxing crap. In many cases, it amounts to anonymous slander or as Mik said, brings the crazies out.

    The advantage is the shaver and be used as a cheese grater when the haircut place is closed or no customers.

    @Doctor-Phibes said in Be like Argentina: @LuFins-Dad said in Be like Argentina: Conspiracy? Maybe on a local level, but nothing all that grand. Just a thumb on the scales here or there by well meaning folk trying to prevent Orange Hitler. That's not what the people who believe the election was stolen think happened. I think the single worst thing that Trump has done since he initially ran for President is to destroy a lot of people's confidence in the electoral process, and at this point it's going to be very difficult to get the turd back in the bottle. God, from his lips to your ears. Some of that confidence needs to be destroyed. One of Trump's facets is to be an agent of chaos that exposes flaws in the system. We have a voting problem, especially in some big cities, but it crops up all over the country, from time to time. We need election integrity. We need only citizens to vote. We need voter ID. We need systems that cannot be hacked or compromised. We need absentee voting, but we don't need citizens voting by mail, unless A)they request a ballot, and B)the postmark on that ballot is within three weeks of the election, and C) the ballot is received no later than by the time the polls close on election day. This is not a Republican, Democrat or Independent issue. This is an everybody issue. And if it takes some superball bouncing around the room breaking voter confidence glass to enact meaningful reform, I'm all for it.

    @kluurs that is cool you used to work for NCI. I did a bunch of work for them in the 2005-2011 time span when I was working for a research company in Rockville, MD
