I tried to get a job at LCBO, but apparently “taste tester” isn’t an actual job there, but they were incredibly apologetic that it didn’t exist, and said they would call me if anything changed.

I can sing all the lyrics to Dicke Titten. Does that count?

What’s ironic is that it’s the liberal-eating-local-buy-local-equality-socialist types that are are subsidizing their ability to live in that small rural town at all.

County State Aid roads, clean water infrastructure, education, business development grants, farm grants… All of that is paid for by big city taxes, which typically (not always… Looking at you Ft. Worth…) lean liberal. In my state one rural community received tax funding at a rate of 480% compare to what they paid in, where as the city center reviebes about 60% of the taxes they pay.

Farm-to-table? Anti-trust regulations? Farm subsidies? The USDA rural development? All paid for in large part by taxes, most of which come from city centers.

And yet exactly what you said - they want liberal big cities gone. They see them as a plight upon the land.

It’s crazy.

There’s also a billionaire commune in South Dakota…

Do all of them, the. Put 10 in the fridge for when you’re hungry later.

Also a dishrag that belongs in a kitchen: 28th Virginia Battle Flag

In the past, rainbow flags were used as a sign to students that you as a teacher were available for anyone to come talk if they needed support, and that your classroom was a safe space. This was especially important for some of the most stigmatized and marginalized groups in the US.

So there is a bit of history behind it.

This may only be anecdotal, and I can’t quote statistics on how effective or important pride flags are to that type of support now, but a close friend of mine who came out in high school first came out to a trusted teacher. They ONLY did this because the pride flag to them meant someone who might understand. It was a year or so later when this person came out to our friend group, and only because of the guidance of that individual who help them through some serious shit, and got them the support infrastructure they needed.

It would first have to pass the “dangerous and unusual weapons” test before even getting to the bearable test… At least according to ScaliaLaw.

I think you are the first person in this thread to understand that $300k is the policy amount, not the cost…

Nmap, Wireshark, zenmap at work.

Oh! Thank you for this!

I mean… It’s a lot of metal… And it’s strong enough to survive the job site for a decade.

As someone who frequents construction sites for my job, and also as someone who has owned a Stanley travel mug and water bottle before whatever the fuck this fad is ( over 10 years… ), they are nigh indestructible, and they keep temperature for longer than either my wife’s Hydro flask or my yeti. So far in that sams period only my, Yeti coffee mug has survived as long. My wife has replaced her hyroflasj twice.

Just anecdotal, but I tend to be hard on things, and it’s stayed with me this long… It’s like $4/year for a coffee mug.

Unfortunately, the President has no role in the scheduling of substances. The Supreme Court has already made it clear the president cannot do this by executive order, and Congress gave the power to schedule dugs to the DEA.

The DEA takes the recommendation from HHS. HHS basically then hands the reigns over to the FDA, who then evaluates the drug, and provides evidence to the HHS based on testing and scientific research. HHS then takes that information and creates a scheduling recommendation for the DEA.

Then, the DEA takes that recommendation, does its own research and has a public comment period, and THEN it can reschedule a drug.

Since Congress gave the president no direct role in this process, all the administration can do is appoint officials they think will be supportive of their decisions, and then make their opinions known, and act as a bit of grease to get things moving.

Descheduling is even more difficult - first because of international treaties, and second - part of the reason marijuana has not been rescheduled already is due to a lack of scientific evidence for specific things the FDA looks for. This is largely because people can’t do research because of its classification… So it’s a catch-22.

If the DEA rewchediles weed, this would allow for further research to be conducted which in time could allow it to be fully rescheduled.

The DEA has already signalled they are planning or at least wanting to reschedule weed to allow for further testing.

OR… Congress could pass a law removing marijuana from the controlled substances act.

Awkward conversation at the urinal is a male dominated sport?

My conservative mother in Minnesota keeps talking about “our southern border”, and I silently am laughing about how it sounds like she is arguing about Iowans crossing illegally into Minnesota…

Point being, the rage baiting works around the entire country for xenophobic conservatives.

I’m sorry, but Billy v Jimmy is not consistent with this nations Historical Traditions. Your argument needs to include a valid ruling from between 1776 and a time period that justifies my argument, whether or not the precedent at that time was to provide justice only to land-owning white men.

So sayeth we Court Supreme.

Correct. Trump hasn’t been found guilty of sedition. He has been found guilty of insurrection by the Colorado supreme Court. He also hasn’t been criminally convicted of insurrection, because this isn’t a criminal case.

Sedition and insurrection are different, and parts of different laws. Criminal and civil guilt are also different mechanisms of our laws, but the 14th amendment doesn’t state someone needs to have a criminal conviction to be considered ineligible for office.

Don’t you dare say that. Then Wisconsin will start feeling like they have to become the Alabama of the Midwest and everything will go to hell.

No love for librera yet. That scroll mode for PDFs saves my life for technical documentation.

Yeah, oldest electronic, or oldest thing? I have a set of fireproof bankers drawers with a functioning rotary lock from like 1917. Oldest electronic… Do speakers count? I have a set of Acoustalinear speakers hooked up to a sound system… Or my grandpa’s old neon sign from the 1950s (although it has some newer parts… Ballasts and what not do not last for ever). I also have some old electric tube transistors in an old radio I restored that have “made in West Germany” stamped on them… But those might be from the 90s… I am not sure.
