  1. America is the model of free speech in the world. This activity is in line with the exercise of the rights of all people in our democracy. This pattern needs to grow across the world so all people can speak up and have their voice !
  2. This is no different than the peaceful protests the USA celebrated in 2021 and 2021. I'm glad France is getting a chance to speak up for their oppression. Free speech is an invaluable right. To respectfully and peacefully organize against the inexcusable actions of authority is a human rights issue.
  3. Everyone + @Draconator If you havent had your ac serviced yet this year do it. And ask them to blow out your dryer vent. It makes things so much more efficient and reduces fire risk. If you've never done or just moved into a house do it.
  4. i've noticed this when i take in cattle for harvest. the skill of cutting meat is quite interesting - and some of these dudes look rough af and half dead.
  5. ...I need to call 911 to report a murder... ***** brutal. 🤣
  6. Re the latter That is starting to ripple over to other arguments we notice. That the double standard is exposed to protect those that are not status quo. I believe many would be disappointed to find out this verdict endorses companies to shut down for Ramadan.
  7. I can't argue it is too protective. I will argue that there is too much government in everyday life. The business should find a process in which they can operate to this condition. Further, could/would a business then say Sunday work is a standard? Traditionally Sunday is not a workday across the board. While this country should be tolerable of all religions, respect each communities rights there comes a point in which it could be too much or too far. I'm not prepared to argue that or even ponder it.
  8. This could have a negative effect. Any religion, including the fictitious church of Satan (designed to mock religion but very real in their ability to organize). 7th day Adventist not working on Saturday. Islamic folks not working during the fasting. Jews during Hanuka. There are many layers to this that could and SHOULD come into effect if all religions are equal.
  9. It's either UC Sunnydale or Adams College.
  10. Exactly. Never in the history of this country were asians ever forced into camps because of their race, never exploited for cheap labor, never subject to laws specialized to keep them behind!
  11. i don't post here much since the worthwhile folks left. but, i just want to stand here and beat the drum of victory on the folks who don't like this.
  12. If someone under 30 gets that quote I'll be amazed
  13. underrated comment; most will not get it.
  14. RIP 1) always teach your kids to swim as early as possible. $400 for an infant swimming class is worth it 2) continue with swim lessons every year until they're solid 3) send them to a lifesaving course by their teenage years. A weekend course can teach a lot. 4) always teach them about currents.
  15. Sound advice I will add that wearing the appropriate undergarments is appropriate. A wife beater shouldn't show lines through. An undershirt should not exceed the trim of a shirt in any area (unless youre doing 90's fashion with a polo and frost tip hair). A belt should never be all the way tight or lose. It should pass the first loop by an inch or so. The watch should be kept clean if it is a polished material. A ball cap cannot be worn with proper dress attire. Ever. Unless you're being drafted or a child. A new one I learned is do not carry your cell phone in the breast pocket of a suit. It makes the suit behave poorly and.

    2023 Concerts

    this is good to know. they're in Raleigh next month on the day we head to the beach so i would be driving right by - had considered just delaying my departure to go see them. they're on my list to go see - along with The Cure - but i have heard tremendously mixed reviews.
  19. Bingo. My wife had one in a previous house and somehow it ended up working to her benefit. She got one for our last house at a reduced rate. It covered nothing and she did a contract. Luck wasn't on our side for it. Eventually after they denied assistance we said we are going to stop paying. They threatened us with recourse but gave up when I kept submitting paperwork for something they should have covered. Like, literally 3 times a week submitting a new claim on miscellaneous issues. It drove them crazy since they had to assign case numbers and managers to each. But, they let us out of the contract.
  20. Oh. And don't get a home warranty. They're trash.
  21. Congratulations! May your adventure be grand!
  22. The parents these days flip their ***** if their little princesses or princes don't get everything they want. Think of the horror if a kid can't text their mommy that they had to climb a rope in gym class or not use a calculator.
  23. But by design does that mean he actually knows the physics and engineering of the vehicles or he has opinions based on those experts to him? Or... Is he saying that they should make the feng shui a little more pleasing in the driver seat? Or they should make the entryway at a different angle to allow for various media reasons? I know he knows a lot about his field but his actual field isn't designing submarines.
