What the fuck is an unmarked vehicle? I’m pretty sure mine would qualify. Actually no, I have a scratch on the passenger side mirror.

Well, location is everything I guess. $600k will get you this down here...Sorry, no plantation, just 17 acres goes with the house... https://m. Link to video

I’m waiting for the audio. I hope he reads it himself.

@Jolly said in The Non-citizen Vote: Could also be area specific. Right, so you really need a broad geographical sample before you can make any kind of assessment. The 'Just Facts' assessment is really anything but that. There's an awful lot of words and assumptions, and not a lot of actual hard data. There's an engineering joke about marketing people deducing a trend from at most a single data point.

And the pendulum swings back again.

I watched the first few minutes, good content and funny stuff!

No, miss. The ability to act upon knowledge is power.

No, some people truly do no understand the dark belly of politics. They go blissfully along their way, not understanding or caring how the sausage gets made. Until they get gob-smacked by reality.

@taiwan_girl said in The Making of a Banana Republic: @Jolly That is as indirect as the quote I played from President Trump. So then, I guess that both candidates support abortion at any time. 555 (And I think we both know that is not the case. Neither of them do.) Don't always take what a politician says or does at face value. Pay close attention to what they do or what they try to do. Trump is pro-life. LuFin might argue with me because of Trump's softening on early term abortion, but that's pragmatic politics. If you can't get elected, you can't effect outcomes. Would Roe v. Wade have been overturned with Biden appointed justices? Biden is pro-death. He mumbles about being Catholic, but Jesus taught that you would be known by your fruit. Biden has put no brakes on the most radical abortion advocates among his supporters. His Just-us Department has criminalized several forms of protest against abortion. Some leaders in his party have even talked about letting babies die after they are born. His White House position paper is very clear: Thou shalt not intervene at any point in a woman's pregnancy to stop the abortion process. Now, what say you?

Austin is a blue dot in a red sea, and the campus may be the deepest shade of blue. Good school, though.

Here we go again? https://www.cnbc.com/2024/05/14/gamestop-amc-shares-jump-another-40percent-in-premarket-trading-as-meme-stock-craze-returns.html GameStop, AMC shares jump another 50% in premarket trading as meme stock craze returns The meme stock phenomenon appears to have been reignited by a recent social media from "Roaring Kitty." The man, whose legal name is Keith Gill, posted a picture on the X platform of a video gamer sitting forward on their chair — a meme used by gamers to indicate they are taking the game seriously.

I had pan-roasted salmon with tomato vinaigrette, a recipe that Musicasacra posted ages ago on WTF. On the side were sautéed haricots vertes with lemon and almond slivers.

@Mik Good to know.

Interesting timing… not when he was trending and at the height of awareness, but 3 months later at the rnd of the school year…

I heard these were really spectacular. I also heard farmers seeding had their GPS systems knocked down for quite a while. I didn’t know this but GPS guided seeding is real important for accuracy and cost savings for big farms.

Now, if you want to compete for some particularly bright engineering students, which sounds more appealing. “You can attend for a discounted rate of $12K tuition plus room and board”, or “We will give you a $16K per year scholarship!”

@George-K said in 12%: I wonder what the odds of a major disability are. I think both of them already have at least one.
