Ok bro.

What "dumb shit stat" are you referring to? The article I linked to was about a study of a whole host of outcomes, not of one cherry picked statistic.

Total myth. From the racist 1980s GOP minds that brought you "Just Say No" and DARE:

"Welfare" isn't just for homeless people or those with absolutely no assets though. Most programs are means tested, meaning that when you apply you fill out a bunch of forms documenting your income and assets. From that, they determine both whether your qualify at all, and if so, for how much assistance.

Even if their income is too low to have ever paid income taxes, virtually everyone in the US pays other taxes like sales tax. But you're right, a few homeless people may have avoided ever paying anytaxes.

Homeless people aren't some other species. They're tax paying citizens who have had things fall apart. Like this lady.

What are you talking about? This article and comments are pretty much identical to the Jezebel article and comments.

Basically every single American is on some sort of "subsidy".

Leaving aside the question of how dangerous it is, nicotine is still physically addictive. Doesn't matter whether it's burnt, chewed, or vaporized, you still get physically addicted, go through withdrawal when quitting.

The DOTA 2 model is pretty much only possible because of Steam.

Not the carnival?

They didn't "decline", they said there was nothing in their laws that let them set up some sort of deal like that. Moreover, he made that request TWO YEARS after leaving Sweden and refusing to come back. It was, and is, a PR move.

His lawyers said it during the extradition hearing, and argued that that conduct wasn't illegal under British law and so he shouldn't be turned over to the Swedes. Moreover that's been the line of a great many of his public supporters.

He can't be formally charged in Sweden unless he's there. Which is why he's hiding out.

Yes. Raped two women, admitted to it in court, said it wasn't real rape, and that the CIA set him up, choosing to entrap him in a honeypot in Sweden because "radical feminists" had redefined the rape laws there to cover the totally not rapes he did (he says it was 'just' sex with a sleeping woman and refusing to stop…

Yep. Sticky/mushy rice that doesn't fall apart is a bad sign. And high quality or not, you turn it upside down. Both for any possible dipping (generally lower end places), and to go into your mouth.

No it doesn't. People act like this on Facebook and using Facebook linked comment sections right out there in the open, no anonymity at all.

Yeah. Missoula is a tiny college town full of hippies. Think Boulder, but cheaper/poorer.

I was talking about all the "bad neighborhood" crap the discussion (and article) was full of, as if harassment and rape (or the threat thereof) only went on in "bad neighborhoods", and this all could have been avoided if the woman had stuck to a "good neighborhood" as a number of posters argued.

And as usual, all the race and class stuff here goes completely over everyone's head.
