But someone can make a board complaint if they can demonstrate false statements made by a member of the bar in connection with their representation. Chances are, nothing will happen... But it's something.
I only see it as a big fuck you to the eventual democratic candidate. He splits the "progressive" side of the vote and gets the Republican elected.
Turmeric is the best thing for my tendonitis to almost a miraculous degree. Take that for what it is worth.
My state'a standardized test says kids are "at risk" if they aren't in the top 40% of the test. The top 50% could all be traditional "a-b" students. But because they weren't in the top 80% of a-b students they are at risk for failing academically.... It's so asinine and disheartening. The last half of the year is devoted to this idiotic test. Kids could be learning stuff that will enrich themselves... Instead they are learnig how to take a test better.
I think your point makes sense if the meme defines "work" as broadly as you do: "any labor.". However, i read the meme to refer to "work for others.". So i think your criticism of it is on shaky ground because that criticism assumes and requires the existence of an intent that was not present.
Working for our own benefit or for the benefit of those we love is a natural inclination. Working for others, often harder and at a detriment to our own personal joy, without a comparable benefit to us and our family is not natural.
Ok. You don't understand what sustainable means. Got it.
Huh? Your response doesn't make sense. Were you intentionally ignoring the point of the op: coffee is more sustainable than non-renewable resources?
That's like saying sunshine is free and then somebody trying to argue against that point but criticizing the price of sunscreen ...
It's not as convenient, but a moka pot makes the best single serving coffee I've experienced. You can get a small version for less than $30. It takes me less than 5 minutes to make a barista level cup, and even the more expensive coffee is going to cost less than 50 cents per serving.
The only downside is the coffee is highly caffeinated--nearly espresso levels. So you're forced to add water if you just want a "cup" of coffee and it's more of an Americano-style. But the taste beats the shit out of drip or Keurig cups...imo.
So long as both sides suck capitalism's cock, that's what you get. Plus most of the 300+ million are too tired, dumb, or blinded to care about anything other than meaningless talking points. So we are left to vote for an imperfect candidate that is less likely to make the hellscape worse. The stakes are high, but i can see why fatalism just sets in and people say "fuck it."
I think all of their albums have songs equal to or better than SFTD. Is SFTD the most consistent throughout?? I don't know. This coming from a guy that had SFTD in his cd player from 2002 to 2006. I
Live-Throwing Copper. It's an absolute masterpiece. Their other albums have some gems, but the rest of the discography is nowhere near the quality of TC.
Jewish communities are often insular, which leads to an impression of otherness. Orthodox Jews may not frequent non-jewish run restaurants or other businesses due to religious restrictions/ pressure (i.e dietary restrictions). Often, those communities congregate in the same neighborhoods, within walking distance of synagogues and schools (prohibitions against driving on the Sabbath). There is pressure to frequent businesses and professional services of those neighbors. Also, the closer you live to someone, the more likely you are to have a relationship with those people (propinquity), which strengthens community integration. They are a minority religion, with obstacles to new participants joining. They may dress in identifiable ways. Wrap all of that together and you have a group of people that are often easily identified and perhaps perceived as "too good for" my restaurant, or my store or my school....etc... they become easy targets for hate.
Ironically, almost everyone else does the same thing, it's just less noticable especially in larger cities or towns. But go to any small town, and it'll be easier to see the similarities. Again people's relationships are strongly informed by religion and propinquity... But because they are a blue eyed 'merican, who never misses the baptist sermon on sunday, and wouldn't be caught dead in Pam's hair salon because word on the street is she might be gay, they are seen as "normal."
Praise the sun.
I was raised in the city...shitty..ever since i was an iddy biddy kiddy drinking liquor out my mama's tiddy.
Technically, both gun ownership rights and abortion rights were based on supreme Court interpretation of the 2nd and 14th amendments (respectively). Given the reversal of the right to abortion under the 14th amendment, an argument could be made that a similar reversal is due for the 2nd amendment as well. The 2nd amendment could simply be interpreted to mean that gun ownership is only a right as part of a "well regulated militia.'. In my opinion, that is the plain meaning of the provision anyway, but I'm just a gun toting liberal that doesn't get sexually aroused or validated by the size of my firearm.
