This is a Harris aligned group that held a rally[1] intended only for for white men. Unless we want to pretend that redboxing[2] isn't real and that PACs actually operate completely independent from their campaigns I don't see how

Too late, we already kicked the ladder out and the hit isn't going to be felt until the people responsible have moved on.

This may be a small complaint overall but these kits are all ugly as sin, especially compared to the timeless Sears houses.

As an avid Paradox game player, I'm curious why you think you need another account to play their games? I have never made one and have never felt like I needed to.

You are absolutely right, I missed a word there - edited to reflect.

24% of the entire US federal Medicare budget every year is dedicated SOLELY to dialysis[1], for K-12 we spend nearly a trillion every year, with increasingly worse results [2]. This is less than two years of spending on education spread acr

This is a misconception. Even in the poorest state here in the US, the median income is far more than most countries in Europe, pre tax[1,2]. And unlike what the internet says, we do have government programs that provide healthcare for thos

This was my first thought, probably will make searching stuff difficult.

It's just a line. There is very little truth to it but the line works, and it helps people with doing things like changing the curriculum away from longstanding classics to books that will be forgotten in a decade.

"Banned books" has always been an indulgent title put on books that have been banned from a handful of school libraries by busybodies, but never used for books so controversial that copies of them might as well be unobtainable.

https://www.budgetbytes.com is a good option for a collection of cost effective but generally good recipes, though the author goes light on seasonings to keep costs down. I also have a large collection of William Sonoma cookbook

The Sears catalog did not seem to get the memo, and was not impeded in its distribution for missing it.

You could buy bolt action, semi, and even fully automatic firearms, including belt fed machine guns, with no ID out of a catalog and have it delivered to your door before WW2. Acting like the individual right to bear arms didn't exist

"The right to bear arms shall not be infringed" is as unambiguous as "The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previ

From the first sentence this is laughable "Secretive right wing Catholic group". Opus Dei is a group for connecting laypeople together, any Catholic can join - there's no test or anything. The entire article continues this wa

Student loan forgiveness probably one of the most unconscionable financial policies being pursued right now. Extracting wealth from the average person and giving it to the top 25% of lifetime earners, all over debt they agreed to take on.

Making the mental jump from "Needing a distraction all the time isn't healthy" to "You're basically implying that it is immoral to have ADHD" is both very strange and massively uncharitable. It is entirely accu
