Those places have to actually exist, though. And ridicule doesn't work, clearly. Vanity may work for less-devoted people, but when you live in a deeply red state and are surrounded by Trumpers, there's no way you're going to

Most of the "smart" ones that support him do so out of political expediency or for grifting, not because they have good points to discuss.

Yeah, because both sides are equal in value and sanity. This is not about both sides. This is society taking control of itself again and deciding that this cancer on this society will not be allowed to grow further. Unfortunately it happene

It's not the most important government building in the entire nation. Don't be stupid, this is not at all comparable.

Anecdotally, yes, it has on the whole.

Precisely. It has to go both ways or it's not really free speech.

We use Magento 2. Once you get over the fact that the XML system is batshit insane and start to work with it, it's not a horrible system to develop with.

That sounds highly reckless, tbh. It's easily the most important event in the US's history since WWII and you're ignoring the people who help get through it.

You can't spread smoking deaths to innocents. At least not in the same way (second hand smoke is dangerous but not like a virus).

Around here (NYC) the Sanitation Department collects them and turns them into mulch for the parks. It's a great way to recycle them without burning.

As a composer, I know my craft is far more than just deciding how to make music. It's about getting in the mind of the listener, making them second guess what's coming, or to make them experience an emotion that's already in

I think it's just historical inertia. There's no real advantage to combining them since they mostly serve their local borough population. Each has their own central branch which is a magnet for research on various topics. The NYPL

That requires human interaction, and if I'm going to a website, I explicitly don't want that as part of the buying experience. I want a machine that will give me exactly what I want with no delays and minimal salesmanship.
