My first ever office job was working for a local government, where one of the first things they told me when giving me a laptop was that the previous person in the position had been FOIAed and had to hand over the laptop to attorneys in the

The parent comment was saying that there was too much partisanship, you are saying the way to solve this issue is by getting rid of the filibuster? Or that if the democrats got rid of the filibuster it would prove they weren't partisan

I'm not sure what you are arguing at this point? Do you acknowledge that the modern conservative movement has embraced conspiratorial thinking and lies in a way that the liberal movement in the US hasn't? If so your pivot to sayin

Bush v Gore was about a legitimate issue, deciding how a ballot should be evaluated when it is ambiguous who the person intended to vote for, and how long the process for recounting should go. Comparing it to the 2020 election controversy o

Arizona is currently hiring a disreputable security firm to scan the ballots for bamboo based on the belief that China sent over thousands of prefilled ballots to sway the election in the state. A republican congressman said that the people

It's disingenuous to just call this an partisanship problem, this is specifically a problem with the modern conservative movement, and it's specifically due to the influence of Fox News and other similar media organizations that b

It's an inserting article, but I come out of it on the other side of you. The descriptions from the people who lived with Jeanne and Yvonne for decades make it sound too impossible for someone to have made the switch described. Living

There is the idea in the Bible that in the time before the flood people were somehow greater. They were bigger and lived longer. Here is a quote from Noah's genealogy for instance from the New Revised Standard Version, Genesis chapter

I mean, sure if someone invents a wonder drug that will be different. But for now we have people advocating for taking off label medications like metformin to increase longevity despite no trials showing that.

I'm on the side of the pessimists here. Medicine for elderly people increasingly seems to become plugging holes on a sinking ship. Sure as more and more people get old and medicine increases the current record might be broken by a year

There's nothing in this article about if this is a comeback, there is nothing here about year to year bookings, or sales of motels, or anything. Just that some influencer friendly motels are being renovated.

Yeah, by definition a UFO represents one of two things. 1. A craft you can't identify. 2. An error with your instruments/pilots visuals. Either one of those are of interest to the military.

Stores can choose to allow proxies, but they are incentivized by Wizards to run a certain number of sanctioned events and report attendance, and events that allow proxies can't be sanctioned. People will play with proxies for testing p

This whole collector mania is hurting one of my hobbies. Namely the Legacy format in Magic: The Gathering. So the idea for this format is that all the different sets of MTG cards are legal, though some specific cards are banned. Well back i

How would this work for them? Is it easier if you are a big Chinese investor to buy stock in a small American company than to purchase it in a F500?

Serious question, could this be money laundering, bribery or something else shady? The fact that the owner made $2.5 Million on a stock sale for a seemingly worthless business seems like it could have some less than legal explanations.

This might be legal, but it's still bad management. If you don't trust your employees and you don't think you can evaluate the results of their work, in this case if things are clean, that's on you as a manager to figure
