Unless they marched the manicurists up at gun point, or threatened to withhold food/water, I assume it wasn’t exactly involuntary. I actually wouldn’t be particularly surprised if it had been the Puerto Rican’s idea.

If only 8 hospital beds out of 800 are filled, then maybe they’re simply killing time, (and putting money into the economy) while they wait for more patients to be delivered?

I know I did, I figured it was an SS. Because that’s what it looks like. Swastica’s aren’t particularly hard to draw, and that isn’t one. And after a quick google search, considering the mascot of Sturgis High School is (apparently) Scoopers, (whatever the heck that is) I’m even more convinced it’s an SS for Sturgis…

Well, the Jones act has been an irritation in PR’s side for some time, so any excuse to get rid of it is probably something to be seized. Being forced to use US flagged ships crewed by US citizens if you want to ship goods from a U.S. port to Puerto Rico (which is all the Jones act does) almost certainly increases the…

Except, as statistics show, waiving the Jones act hasn’t really done much. There’s only been a single shipment of FEMA goods to Puerto Rico utilizing the waiver. The vast majority have been Jones compliant ships. As everybody has been saying, the problem isn’t getting goods to the island, the problem is distributing…

I’d be inclined to argue the problem is your neighbors tendency to litter, and not the street vendors providing your neighbors with litterable items.

Uhm, Would have thought this obvious, but the concern is that they aren’t even legal, much less citizens. This is explicitly designed to protect those who are literally breaking the law with their mere presence within the U.S. of A.

I’m inclined to argue that if it had been an actual 3rd world country it would have gotten more help..

Uhm, maybe I’m misreading it, but it doesn’t read to me that they are saying they’ll give back all the cash...

Puerto Rico is allowed to, but that doesn’t help sell the narrative. Considering how often it is brought up though in spite of it’s apparent (and not hard to find) irrelevancy, I can only assume there’s more to it under the hood.

So, you and your womanfriends are going for a woman’s night out after work?

*shrug* I’m unconvinced most previous presidents were the former. They’re just less obviously the latter.

Not neccessarily.

I think that’s the big thing, contrary to the ESRB, loot boxes are definitely gambling.

*shrug*

I think he’s simply pointing out that releasing those particular prisoners aren’t going to save much money, because those particular prisoners are effectively paying their own way via work release programs.

Ah, but was she talking about “diversity in tech” or simple “diversity”.

Sadly, I think I have to agree with the tweet by Trump Jr. that I read in the article on CNN.

Personally, I also strongly suspect that opening loot boxes/CCG packs also hit the same dopamine pleasure centers that gambling does, (largely because I think they’re basically the same) but I’m unaware if anybody has actually done a study on it. Would be a strong argument that biologically, at least, they are…

And sure they called baseballe cards out on it. It’s just hard to google the chat room complaints about them, though there are some online articles form the late 90's around.
