He's on a roll today. Here's one about a murder in a Home Depot in the city I used to work in, Pleasanton. A black shoplifter was confronted by a white loss prevention officer, and she shot him. Pamela Price, the progressive DA, won't meet with the parents of the victim, and will be charging in a way that the murderer will get 5 years or so. Link to video

I recognized those engines right away. That plane is beautiful, I have seen it at the Air Force Museum at Wright Pat

Nice

@Axtremus said in Which Justices are most often in the majority?: But who is to say whether a case has a culture war valance? I recall one unanimous decision recently talked about here, which had enough culture war valence that the reporting pretended it was split down the middle 5 to 4.

@Aqua-Letifer said in Ah-nold: @Horace said in Ah-nold: @Aqua-Letifer said in Ah-nold: @Horace said in Ah-nold: Psychologists do differentiate between meaning and happiness. Especially cantankerous psychologists on all-meat diets who write books on getting one's act together. Wrong thread? But I don't think JP originated that distinction. He didn't, but I'd say he did the most in recent years to bring it into public consciousness. Which is a good thing, because the bullshit purported in the other thread is now the prevailing theory. I like any idea that distinguishes between the brain state one can achieve through drugs, and something better.

@Jolly said in The 65 Project: I think that any capricious complaint to a bar organization ought to subject the complaint originator to immediate and intense scrutiny. If the complaint is found to be balderdash and political, I think the complainer ought to be subject to immediate fine, possible disbarment and be open to civil litigation. Absolutely.

@LuFins-Dad said in Top Gear on the Robin: If I have to choose between the Top Gear/Grand Tour crew weird and fake shenanigans or these guys honest and insightful commentary, I’m going with Top Gear. Seriously, those guys wanted me to scratch my ears out they were so annoying. "Gotta do some bullshit Every! ...Three. to. Four. SECONDS. To keep an audience— engaged? Because we're charismatic as a roll of paper towels."

He does a nice job of revealing the shallow thinking of these clowns.

@George-K Ah okay. (I do not agree with the general thought that reunification with natural mother/father is the best however or always in the best interest of the child)

And stopped them getting involved with the fourth C of missionaries - Cooking. I think that was more Stanley’s effort than Livingstone’s.

@xenon said in The Trans-Pacific Railroad: Trump vs. Biden 2024. It’s hilarious and incredibly sad at the same time. But still the greatest country on Earth.

That seems to kind of go against evolution - where something develops to make it easier to survive, or whatever. Not sure why these traits would become more popular.

Yeah, I was wrong about Tallman. In fact, I think she did some of the voice for the cartoon animated film.

@taiwan_girl said in $380,000,000,000 : Another way of looking at it: Tax Revenue as a % of GDP, which shows that there has not been a significant change in recent history. [image: 1686877408873-fredgraph-2.png] Apparently politicians got a taste for the money during WW2, and were incapable of ever giving it up.
