    I’m fine with it just so we can get it off the table as an excuse not to solve the real problem which is it is effectively illegal to build housing in most jurisdictions in the US.

    Nope. At age 30 (yes 30 years) my parents finally let her live with a group home. My dad understandably was stubborn about giving up control of his daughter. But eventually realize the reality. Basically she’s in a home where 1-4 adults with special needs live. The state gives the home “parent” money for it. She’s gone through a few homes, her main thing lately is a compulsive consumption thing…there’s a term for it, I forget, but she’ll drink mouth wash, swallow batteries (many, many times), but they’ve found a place that seems to be better than most now.

    Science! Hey I’m a Vikings fan now, but never count out the Steelers post season, especially if the Patriots aren’t there to ruin the AFC path every, freaking, time.

    @aqua-letifer might remember this but in 2004 I remember listening to his show and calling and getting on the air. I think we have a tape or CD somewhere of it. I’m sure it was a very wise comment I made (sarcastic).

    @jon-nyc said in Maduro might be checking the train schedule: As one of the comments points out that chart is priced in local currency which may have also shit the bed during that window. That’s the technical term, right?

    @jon-nyc said in Not that I feel the least bit sorry for Maduro: But just imagine what it must be like - one day you’re dictator for life. Every luxury at your disposal. The world your oyster. The next morning you wake up in Federal prison in Brooklyn. I bet he woke up Sunday - if he slept at all - hoping it was all a nightmare only to see bars in the window. Similar thoughts about Epstein and why I think it's totally reasonable for him to have committed suicide. Human contentment is about the first derivative of one's status, not the absolute value.

    Is there a link to the entire dissertation? It would be more fair to critique after skimming through the original document rather than opining off a few choice quotes selected by some rando on social media. OK, found the newly minted PhD. on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/olga-estrada-28b74a65 … but I am not sufficiently motivated to reach out to ask for a copy of their dissertation. And, social media being what they are these days, I cannot be entirely sure that the LinkedIn profile is a true reflection of the real person anyway.

    Speaking of fraud don’t forget Trump pardoned Esformes. My DOJ buddy knew that case well. Epic Florida Medicare fraud I believe.

    He’s too YouTube-y for me. Almost like a high schooler doing an interview. Anyway… imagine how much fraud is found within Medicare/Florida?

    The funny thing is Trump’s NY residence (no longer his official one but his wife still lives there) is in NY-12.

    Though we do (usually) when someone else is driving. And this is statistically safer.
