Dr. Seuss. I really don't know why, but that stuff is creepy and disturbing in a way that almost nothing else is. All of it. The art, the writing, the themes. I literally just can't even.

Depends. Particulars vary by state, but if such a claim was made then the court would likely order a psychological evaluation. In my state, if they determined that because of a mental illness he was not competent to stand trial or lacked capacity to appreciate the (legally) wrongful nature of his (alleged) actions at the time of the alleged crime, then either the charges might be dropped or he might be found Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity. In either case, that often (particularly for violent crimes) results in judicial commitment to a psychiatric hospital. Which can often result in a longer term of confinement than the prison sentence would have been.

How embarrassingly juvenile.

washing yourself down with iso alcohol. Get a good scrub in. Then get that inner cleanse with a stiff shot.

But maybe grab the ethyl for the inner cleanse.

Wtf does that even mean. Pedal make go, steering wheel turn. What do I need AI for?!

I have not paid attention to his hands or any such thing, so I don't know for sure, but it could be nothing more than his daily aspirin leading to easy bruising.

It said a protected bike lane, so relatively safe, and only irritating to people who really love sitting in car traffic. Facilitating alternative modes of transportation makes car life better by reducing traffic. Not to mention all the other benefits.

Next you'll tell me trains are a bad idea.

Sounds like Grover's plans have improved: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QhMZ-6zs0mM

Walk without rhythm and we won't attract the worm big brother.

Indeed. 🤨

He said they'd be empowered. He never said they would do anything with that power.

A high profile lawsuit might be seen as something which could also hurt their image. The entire population of The Villages would probably boycot Disney World. Hopefully Disney's execs pay attention to public opinion and not just their golf buddies.

For less than the individual price of some missiles, you could vaccinate the entire military. Vaccines are cheap. You could vaccinate thousands of soldiers for what it will cost to treat one who gets really sick and ends up hospitalized.

This is absolutely not a cost-saving measure, even if you wholly disregard the costs of care after the fact.

This was prior to his reelection, so who would have taken the reins? Vance? Desantis? They wouldn't have turned out the voters like Trump did, even if Fox and OAN and the rest of the propaganda machine worked overtime to harp on how dangerous the left is for assassinating their guy or whatever. Trump has a uniquely cultish charisma that Vance and any other likely replacement candidate simply didn't.

I am ignorant. I've never understood what Esperanto offers that another language doesn't. It seems like Spanish with extra steps and fewer speakers. What's the actual benefit?

I was homeschooled and have severe social anxiety and no social skills, whereas two of my siblings having exceptional social/people skills. It's not black and white, and the bad outcomes aren't inevitable, but I myself would never encourage anyone to do homeschooling.

My own parents' motives and abilities were not aligned with good educational outcomes.

I was homeschooled by such parents as you describe, and I still have social difficulties in my 30's because of it. I also wasn't hugged at all, but I don't think that alone would have fixed it 😛
