Minor correction: Jacksonville State is not a HBCU (like Jackson State in MS).

Those Hoover PD up in Trussville are narcotics interdiction seconded to ICE. They can’t and won’t pull you over for regular traffic stops (unless you’re doing something super out-of-bounds where you’d expect to be stopped by any cop regardless of jurisdiction).

That’s something that the LEO apologists don’t seem to realize: even if every cop murder was a genuine accident (LOL), most of them still deserve heavy consequences because they were, at best, criminally negligent. Uncle Ben was right: with great power comes great responsibility. So even if a cop “accidentally grabbed…

In a related vein, if I had the fancy one with the sound system, I would just have “Danger Zone” playing all the time while on the water.

“Google maps for years because of their massive data collection”

“shooting break.”

I get that they’re suing Scott and Live Nation; those parties deserve to be sued. I guess Drake, maybe, if they can prove he somehow had something to do with this since he, at least, was present at the event.

“These siblings are actually clones of Cleon, the first Galactic Emperor; their different ages represent different stages of his life.”

Starred for using “bated” instead of “baited”.

I don’t know if anyone’s mentioned this. However, this is ~20,000 years in the future, where people have evolved and been bred better than we are now. These are highly-bred, specially-trained individuals who are part of a royal noble house with all the perks, who also take an anti-aging drug every day (melange, “the…

“Having to apologize and getting nothing in return usually means you were in the wrong.”

Yeah.... the front of the top of the RV is pretty close to the back of the semi cab as well, so I’d bet this thing turns about as well as a certain large British steamship.

1) Brother Day is headed to the conclave or whatever of the religion whose leader just died in order to back the replacement candidate that isn’t proclaiming the emperors to be soulless.

Why is there not a BEV (and maybe a PHEV) version of this car? Give me an electric Civic hatchback with ~150 miles of range and a reasonable price tag.

“Most chemicals burn worse with moisture contamination.” Maybe, but: “This localization of moisture leads to volumetric changes of the tablets surface creating dust over time. Dust increases burn surface area and thereby burn rate. Higher burn rate can result in higher combustion chamber pressure and risk of…

Here, let me help you find literally the next sentence in the article: “The officer was suspended with pay, as the Detroit News details. Now, it’s likely that Chief of Police James White will push to change that to an unpaid suspension, but it’s pending an investigation by Internal Affairs.”

Hey, I dunno if you’re aware of this, but it’s been 37 years since that was passed, and things might be a little different now, including the people who created and sponsored that bill.

So that’s 25 people’s worth of space for berthing and other needs, and 25 people’s worth of consumable cargo (food mostly) that doesn’t have to be carried, and 25 people’s worth of fresh water that doesn’t have to be generated. That’s also (in theory) a (possibly substantial) reduction in insurance premiums for ships…

There’s a car that I see on my commute regularly with a breast cancer awareness tag that says SQEEZM (or SQUEEZM, I can’t remember exactly).

Auto-headlights should be mandatory safety equipment, and should be required to turn on if the wipers are on, or if it’s dark. I’m not usually one for the car to make choices like that outside my control, but this is one of those times.
