OF COCK!

That being said, we don't know what the clones are into. Presumably they are into something. Presumably it's freaky.

Huh. That must be a US v. UK difference. I'm from Pennsylvania and have only ever heard "Ralf."

Wait, what's the English way?

He isn't disputing it from what I can tell, and if it's on video then it doesn't really matter if he disputes it.

Money was put into infrastructure and things that the government was responsible for, and they operated under new constitutions, but neither of those governments were institutionally sound, and didn't really have the resources or in many cases legitimacy to sustain their operations. Their fundamental problem was that…

They don't even seem to have conflicting stories of what happened. What this dude said to her is awful, and he doesn't appear to be denying he said it. Taking a picture of someone to publicly shame them on the internet is also pretty crappy. Neither of these things happening means the other didn't.

I am no fan of drones, but I think they are generally a better alternative to the kinds of wars we have fought in the past that require expansive, hastily assembled infrastructure networks and large numbers of soldiers and support personnel on the ground who are in constant danger of being attacked. And while there…

In his defense, he was kind of constrained in both Iraq and Afghanistan by what Bush had already done. There had been little focus in the previous administration on constructing functional states out of those two countries, and you can't really just go into a country, fuck shit up, and then leave and expect…

Lincoln wasn't hated so much by his own government though, largely because souther congressmen stopped showing up. I would say the most hated by his own government was probably Andrew Johnson, who was impeached on the basis of violating a law that was pretty much enacted so that he could be impeached once he broke…

This feature perplexes me.

It's been a while since I saw this movie, but I found that scene interminable, not unlike the sequence towards the end of 2001 with all the psychedelic patterns that goes on for something like 7 or 8 minutes.

That's more an argument, a bad one, about judicial over-reach than about personal freedoms or states' rights. Anybody with any sense can tell that gay marriage doesn't infringe on any freedom belonging to anyone else.

I'm only 23, but the Japanese have an excuse. They ran out of land.

To support them in old age?

Sure, but The Who had a Magic Bus!

I mean, I don't see a problem with a states' rights argument for increasing the freedoms available to people, which is what he was doing. There is no way gay marriage would have passed at the federal level in the mid-90s, so the best strategy at the time was allowing states to allow gay marriage if they chose to do…

Sorry, I mis-spoke, he didn't argue for single-payer until later, but the individual mandate is still not to the left of where he was. It is not a liberal position unless you actually find a way to get people to afford it.

People refer to academic journal articles being paywalled, though, even though you can just buy a pdf of the issue with the article in it that you need without paying for a subscription to the journal.

…by paying. Whether or not it is a stupid complaint (it is), the album is, by definition, paywalled.
