If you can get them to accept an email money transfer from your account to theirs, try that instead. Checks are pretty easy to falsify and even if you trust these specific people, I’ve often seen tradespeople use customer checks to pay others who will then double endorse them and may be less trustworthy.

I think you should. All types of othering” should be discouraged. Redheads have been pestered and disparaged a lot throughout history by other whites. Not as bad as racial discrimination, of course, but still...

Though it’s not a perfect idea since not everyone can benefit from it, I think free college and/or trade school for descendants of slaves is the most likely form that reparations will take -if politicians ever get around to voting on that.

Maybe it's a destination wedding gone crazy? If it's over here though, no way.

My mother mostly uses credit or debit cards in person. She only handles cash for small purchases. I do the same. Checks are more trouble than anything as you point out, you have to be oblivious to hold up a line while you write one out.

And then some, my mother hasn’t written a check since the year 2000.That ridiculous detail just makes this whole thing even more completely bonkers.

That immediately popped into my head when I heard it was unanimous. Conservatives never do anything out of common decency or a sense of fairness so you can be sure this is all about protecting their own assets in the future.

I  was way too curious to resist trying my own. It was pretty meh, so it's a good thing babies don't know any better. 

Even my mom doesn’t write checks and I think the last one she did was around in 2000.

It’s precisely because this little twerp and his parents know he will never be judged-much less punished in any way-for his shitty behavior this time- or ever- that he got in this situation.

Well, they can ask but she can say no. Maybe she enjoys being engaged but not getting married. I know lots of people who are like that. 

Only a bucket? I’m hoping this big bag

They didn’t file the report but if they helped stage it, how could they think it was harmless for someone to say he’d been assaulted and threatened even if it was only in an interview?

Posting the deranged tweets alone should warrant hazard pay. 

Yes! A fair look at all this from someone who really knows this stuff would be great.

Yes but about something he couldn't possibly be involved in whereas now...

Stormfront most likely.

Not a fan of Avenatti but since I want R. Kelly to stop victimizing these girls, I guess a lawyer looking to redeem his image may be what it takes to get results.

I view his protest against police brutality and murder of unarmed black people as a separate issue from this lawsuit over being excluded from playing because of his protest. It would be nice to have proof the team owners colluded but really, only someone incredibly dumb or biased doesn’t see that’s what they did.

Thanks for this. I’m glad to hear independent bookstores are seeing rising sales.
