13th Amendment "except as a punishment for crime" goes brrrr
Especially if you're getting up in years. Even just some light walking everyday helps significantly in preventing or minimizing osteoporosis and muscle atrophy. Plenty of mental benefits too as well.
At a point, a sedentary lifestyle will rapidly catch up with you both mentally and physically. It also becomes a "use it or lose it" when it comes to bone and muscle health and significantly difficult if not practically impossible to reverse once it starts to fail.
Suspiciously Tram Shaped General Motors: All of these tram lines wouldn't have disappeared if people liked them! Clearly people just hate public transport so buy our cars!
They basically want border towns to become civilian ran security checkpoints by the sounds of it.
You stop for gas in Bumfuck, TX and the clerk gets to pressure you about what you're leaving the state for. If they think you're "one of those types", this ordinance gives them the authority to make your life a living hell. Doesn't even matter if you're actually getting an abortion, just that they "think" that you are.
Definitely don't ever underestimate how quickly lack of sleep can mess you up mentally and physically.
Inflicting sleep deprivation on a person is widely recognized as a form of torture by human rights organizations as well as the UN.
Elvis jumpscare house!
Curious if you are a JelloApocalypse enjoyer or found this elsewhere.
This is from the first house they toured through on their second Bad Zillow Houses stream.. The whole house is pretty nutty
You mean the fact that the biggest initial source of support the Nazis got was from the emerging business class who were scared of the rising influence of labor unions? Can't imagine why that gets pushed under the bed.
Not like we had that nearly happen here in the US or anything though. Just don't look into the Business Plot or that many of the Jan 6thers turned out to be small business tyrants...
Just remember that the most dangerous Nazis aren't the skinheads on the corner but the ones on Wall Street.
90% of his advice is pretty much just boilerplate self help stuff you can find in thousands of books on Amazon. That stuff gets you in the door and is meant to develop a sense of trust because you might see initial improvement and feel good from the advice.
It's when he does the rug pull and starts introducing trad nonsense into it that determines how willing a person is to keep following through on listening to him.
Like you mentioned, this is an extremely common tactic used by religious leaders as well as cults. Back in the mid 20th century when the whole self help craze started, many cults took to framing themselves as self help groups to attract outsiders. NXIVM is probably the most infamous example of this. The first few meetings should seem like a normal support group but would soon start ramping up into full on cult mode.
Looks like it was cropped from this New Republic article from last June.
In short, the article says the Republican Study Committee's proposed 2024 federal budget calls for removing the Community Eligibility Provision from the National School Lunch Program which provides funding to low income schools to have free meals for students
So AA has ~130,000 employees so at $1.34B that's about $10,000/employee. Seems like they got plenty in the old war chest to be giving out raises left and right so surely that's what they're doing, right?
In my opinion the biggest problem w the police isn’t the officers it’s the training and culture.
That's sorta the point that people generally have issues with cops dude. It's the overall culture of shielding of each other from consequences, stoking a "everyone is your enemy"/warrior mentality among officers, bad or lack of training leading to unneeded violent escalation etc.
It's been police departments dragging their heels and throwing tantrums on addressing these issues that have what caused people's dislike of them to grow.
Tldr is that the official term "city" in the UK is pretty much entirely ceremonial.
All it means is that the ruling monarch liked your town enough that they would give it city status by royal decree. That's why "city status" seems so arbitrary because it's entirely is.
And this is nothing new at all for Apple. I still remember how infuriating it was having to deal with iTunes for moving files to and from my iPod Touch. Jailbreaking so I didn't have to deal with iTunes was such a relief
Android obviously having no issues with you just having direct access to the file system makes it so much easier
"Try to do that at an airport and you'll get arrested."
She knows plane spotting at big airports is a pretty common thing too right? Hell, some airports even have a place where it's specifically encouraged. Reagan Intl has a park that was built at the end of the runway for plane spotters.
"I'm the media"
You'd think she'd be better at researching basic stuff that takes a 5 second google search to know it's perfectly fine to do
"Well, there was a bit of a stir when it was decided that since corporations are people, they could technically run for president. But President Walt Disney-Pepsi-Comcast has done wonders for the economy... given that it's... now the economy"
I've known a number of self labeled "liberals" that basically think being progressive means simply not being openly racist and restraining from yelling slurs on a street corner.
Surprise surprise it turns out they were just closet bigots who were aware what crowds they could get away with expressing their horrid views with and in the recent years figured street corners are now perfectly up for grabs.
The best marks are the overconfident ones who think they will be able to out scam the scammers. They are the ones who will gladly dump their life savings into shitty ape pngs thinking they will be the one to make it big.
That definitely still demonstrates a ride or die mentality. If one sleaseball can sway the room in such a way where than budging against it would lead to ridicule, that still shows the sort of internal pressure there is to tow the party line no matter what
I think they still got their white hoods collecting dust in the closet
