    @mik said in Why Wall St loves Bidens low approval rating: Maybe not, but I do encourage you to reproduce at a greater than replenishment rate. We're right there, and if it's a good spring at work, we may consider going for one more.

    @axtremus said in Is this hate speech?: @klaus said in Is this hate speech?: There is no such thing as "hate speech", in my opinion. There's speech that is within the realm of free speech, and there's speech that is against the law. Merely hating somebody or something is not against the law. “Hate speech” as a type of speech can certainly be defined into existence. Whether a particular definition of it overlaps with illegality is a separate question. But to define "hate speech" you'd need to define "hate". Good luck with that. Any definition will eventually boil down to "the things that those in power don't want to hear".

    My favorite place ever was The Maisonette. Sadly it is long gone, a standard of cuisine, service and decor that was unmatched. I wish i could find good pictures that really captured its elegance.

    There is no need for BLM to protest anymore BLM is too busy writing policy and syllabi for Loudoun County.

    Of course if she brings the gun, it would no longer be a threat. Case dismissed

    My oldest and youngest have ink. Not just small symbols. My youngest has this elaborate, very well done, artwork on her arm. It's "retail price" is somewhere around $1,200. She received a $300 award for Best in Show tatoo at last year's Tattoo convention in Milwaukee. It really is very nicely done. How it ages is anyone's guess. My oldest has a few and a large one on her outer thigh area which is a copy of my photo of M45 [image: 1642803058652-m45102608-1rev5_72dpi1024.jpg] .

    @bachophile said in Last of the Breed: I also don’t understand why sailing it around Cape Horn to get to Texas is more economical than taking it apart on the west coast. Just sailing it those 10,000 miles will cost something, fuel, crew, food etc….who pays for that. The Texas buyer or the Navy. Based on the simple laws of physics, it takes a lot less energy to move it by water than overcoming gravity and friction necessary to move it by land.

    @jon-nyc said in Bear it.: Presumably he was in a vehicle taking these photos? I don't think they make a lens long enough for me to get those sort of tight cropped shots....
