Ask your doctor today for Intuniv ER! Seriously, it was a big help and minimal side-effects aside from a bit of aggression, but if you want assertive, you get assertive.

I'd suggest shrinking the pool somewhat, perhaps by selecting from people involved in state-level politics already? This idea that any random person is fit to be a representative is bonkers to me. The House should be filled with the Co

It's a beautiful system, and it's interesting to think about how things would be different if the 17th Amendment never came about. But this ruling could bring the role of Congress in governance to the forefront again.

I think one could make an argument that the US system of governance was designed to encourage "politicking" by populist types in the House. Love him or hate him, LBJ was excellent at this sort of thing and an ideal representativ

I agree with the sentiment, but I always have wondered what t-test a real engineer uses and why they only teach the "Student" version. Given the context, a bit of a clarifier would have been appreciated.

Yeah, well frankly most EDM fucking sucks and that's pretty much why. Your average cool guy "producer" doesn't know the first thing about intervals, counterpoint, or even basics like triads or major/minor scales.

Agreed. There are "strains" of ADHD that show some remarkable similarities to bipolar disorder that must be sussed out by a really skilled professional. My source on this is personal experience.
