do firefighters not get qualified immunity when acting in their official capacity? I think in this case jail might mean pay a big fine. Realistically though if california wanted to fund and manage this i'm sure the feds would be extati

I'm thinking that ozempic and zepbound will have something to say about this. When ozempic becomes available as a generic (2032) it's going to be available for $10 a dose and a huge amount of people will be taking it.

This is ridiculous but what I can't work out is why they don't just (correctly) claim that they neither own nor operate the restaurant. It would be absurd to hold a landlord responsible for the actions of their tenant.

The EU has consent elections, it's just a proportional representation forces people to work together to get anything done, so you end up with a lot of relatively uncontroversial work happening. There's also little point in trying

This is a hot take these days. The world seems to need to take a side on everything and most of the Palestine supporters fail to condemn Hamas and the Israel supporters don't tend to criticize Israel. Broadly I think Israel has the rig

It got a couple sequels but they were Xbox only and from what I hear not as good. But I agree it could do with a reboot. And a setting so I can actually hook the plane onto the airship rather than just getting close enough.
