Only Democrats can violate the constitution. Jesus says whatever the Republicans do in office is right and godly.

Definitely, for all those hotels the Obama family owns that military officials were staying at.

all those times the DoD spent time at Obama’s hotels right?

So are those 2nd amendment constitution huggers that were ready for revolution if Hillary won ever going to say a word about all of these constitutional violations?

This whole comment is full of hilariously moralizing comedy like this. Calm down.

Maybe not so much nonchalance but fear. Fear is what I see. She’s trying to go on like things are okay to keep from provoking him again.

The most unsettling part is how quickly he turns to assisting her. Picking up her purse, attempting to put her glasses back on. It’s that sort of, “I’m so nice, why do you make me do this?” behavior. The power dynamic of abusers is absolutely chilling.

For me, the reactions of the girlfriend really stood out to me, not that anything about it wasn’t shocking. Rather just her non-chalant reactions made it clear that she was completely used to him doing stuff like that, which is just chilling.

What you found dissatisfying about his character development is what I think makes Killmonger a truly good, and memorable villain.

It’s very simple: they did it because they hate you. No, not the audience, you specifically. “I’m going to ruin Star Wars for det-devil-ails,” Rian Johnson says in the commentary.

It’s used once in ESB. It’s used dozens and dozens of times in the prequels.

I dunno, on one hand he was beginning to look like a good nuanced villain and I was digging it, but then they turned him into a bog standard bad guy when he’s burning all the flowers and talking about sending weapons so Wakanda can rule the world.

• While writing, Johnson considered having Luke use the Force for some massive attack at the end, but felt it went against his idea that the Force is not a superpower.

What a surreal and slightly idiotic set of circumstances. I can’t identify with any part of this article, not the streamers, his viewers, his living situation, his apparent lack of adult coping skills to engage in other more conventional social activities during his suspension. These articles about Twitch, the…

If flight attendants—who are the authority figures in this situation—were insisting that the dog be placed in the bin...

Heavy glulam or built up members, or even traditional large timbers have the benefit of charring on the outside, which impedes further burning. Not perfect, but longer chance of escape than concrete failing catastrophically in compression.

Cross laminated timber actually is quite resistant to fire! It’s because the resulting pieces of wood are so big and dense, they are not quick to catch, I believe. Full disclosure my knowledge of CLT comes mainly from the TED talk.

They have to be comparing to concrete and steel.

if you google the product, it tends to say that the fire resistance is due to the timber having a char layer, that allows the remaining timber to maintain it’s strength during a fire, cladding in gypsum board or other common fire proof cladding, adds additional resistance.

depending on what you read... they far out…

Not to mention construction costs, beam to beam consistency, foundation to bedrock unions, expansion, rot and exterior exposure, among many other questions.
