“those were alllll different from what J Edgar Mrs. Clive Tolson was up to.”

Republicans should love it, but they won’t, because it goes against their claim that climate change is not a problem that needs to be addressed through carbon emissions reductions.

My favourite proposal is a revenue neutral-carbon tax in which all the funds collected are re-dispersed equally to everyone with a Social Security number. Thus, if you have a smaller than average carbon footprint, the people with a bigger one pay you. As everyone conserves, the average falls, so people have to…

You’re not. Kinja screws up all on its own. It’s just weird that way.

Needs an exclamation point.

What was Pearl Harbor doing in the pacific ocean anyway?

I believe the rationale, twisted as it was, for these laws was that if two kids knocked each other up, they could get married so that the baby would be “legitimate”.

And furthermore, North America has significant populations that live in far-flung, low-population-density areas, where establishment of fast-charging infrastructure will be very costly relative to its use. These people will be better off with a moderate-range PHEV that can get them to the nearest town for necessities…

You aren’t the first.

Sure, in Texas. But not so much in the rust belt, where cars tended to... dissolve. My family bought cars new and kept them as long as possible, but by the mid eighties our cars were a ‘77 Chevy van and an ‘81 Rabbit. The cars we bought in ‘63, ‘69, and ‘74 were long ago sold for scrap, and the van was about to be.

In the case of an abusive parent (and really who but an abusive parent would behave this way toward their child’s partner?) it is not “really very easy” for an adult child to tell them to stop their abusive behaviour.

Bless your heart.

SQUIRREL!

True. My point is that self-proclaimed “moderate” Republicans have no business pretending to be horrified at what their party has become. This is the inevitable result of the strategy they chose.

I haven’t watched Stranger Things, but I’m curious about where it’s set, because where I grew up (rustbelt) by the mid-eighties there weren’t many pre-1975 cars on the road. Cars just didn’t last that long back then.

“even though Trump is raising millions of dollars for re-election legal defence...”

Through gerrymandering, the Republicans chose their own voters. Now they’re stuck with them.

Looks like you were right about Manafort.

...which was not what he was expecting when he asked the genie to give him a big dick.
