I think unmenstrating women would be ok, but the priests weren't interested in taking anyones word for it or trying to see for themselves or get testers or whatever that would entail. I guess they will have the last laugh if some Indian god comes to life and goes on a menstrual blood fueled rampage, otherwise they…

I hear what you are saying, in the past both high transport costs and the toughness of moving to America limited immigration in a way that they wouldn’t today. I think that anyone in America should be able to work at anything they want to work at if someone is willing to pay them, unless they are causing harm, and…
But he hasn’t abandoned the all concrete wall either. Trump Labs must be hard at work formulating transparent concrete! Hooray...
Lady Gaga has the eyes of a stone cold killer. Not quite Superman, but one of nature’s most Savage beasts.
I think the US had basically open borders for most of its history. There was the Chinese Exclusion Act, and Operation Wetback and some other almost painfully embarrassing stuff(IMO...), but really until about 2005 our border security was de facto non-existent, and prior to 1924 our borders were legally open. Efforts…
I don’t have a dog, but I always thought a good bit of the reason for a walk was to give them somewhere to crap outside. I am not surprised people are happier when they get notified that the odds of a smelly surprise on their carpet when they get home just went down.
Ya, I feel like both Disney and America took a wrong turn somewhere after Walt died... Maybe one of these days they will make a fun movie about all of Anne Frank’s kooky adventures after her daring escape....
A story is that it started as a bet between Frank Herbert and L. Ron, while they were complaining about how hard it was to make money as Sci-Fi writers. They were like, “we make up elaborate stories for peanuts, religion is where the real money in made up stories is at. Bet I can bilk people better than you!".…
Well or they are afraid she would ask for help...
Also Jafar was like the best person in the thousand and one Arabian nights IIRC...
IIRC Jafar was a good guy in the thousand and one Arabian nights, giving good advice and then having to flee for disagreeing with the king. So he started off pretty young and spry but got a bit slow later on. His getting too slow to escape the axeman was the beginning of the end for the good (ish) king, who ran things…
Pens. Gotta have a spare...
Also, we were at war with Japan and the Nazis. That doesn't justify putting people in concentration camps and stealing their stuff based on their ethnicity, but the threats were real and credible. America is not threatened by sick children or migrant workers, other than how our abusing them undermines whatever claim…
A pirate Zeppelin!

Is losing representing all workers really a hit to unions? It seemed to me that FDR gave them the right to tax workers along with the duty to represent all of them. They just lost the right to tax them, so it seems only fair that they can only negotiate on behalf of their members. I don’t even know why they would WANT…
Are loggers really incredibly hostile to women? More than lawyers or doctors or Hollywood people or non-profit people? It doesn’t seem very likely to me...
And honestly the US produces more oil than Saudi Arabia, I doubt we actually benefit from high energy prices, but I bet we hurt a lot less than some places.
It looks like firefighters and teachers are paid 2-3x staffers, so that does sound pretty rough to me actually. Congress should be able to afford to pay for staff. Hard to draw the line on how much staff they need though, and they will want to prefer more and cheaper labor...
