Considering Erdogan’s panic and Turkey’s history, I suspect that there was a coup attempt but that it was nowhere as big or widely supported as Erdogan has convinced himself it was.

Also, “you haven’t seen how someone out of the game for almost two decades assumes that she’ll do just as well as her rose-colored recollections, have you?”

They’d both been out of the game for over a decade, and he had personal experience seeing how tough it is to get the rust off, even when he was keeping himself in some sort of practice with his “bowling night” outings and had the training wheels of working on a remote island. Of course he’d assume that she wouldn’t be…

We may have different standards as to what a comfortable cap is. My minimum gap is likely quite wider than your despite us both needing to break into the same size space on a highway of the same speed.

Yeah, but I was born in 1990 and thus neither know nor care what cars from your time were like.

Where do you find the symbol? I’ve never been able to spot it, and assumed that was because the kosher bottles aren’t widely supplied.

There has apparently long been a kosher variant, with the mashgiach held to be the only person besides the founder to know the full recipe, but I’m not sure how to find or obtain it. It’s actually kinda my white whale.

The resulting film is a mess of contrasting styles, with Whedon clearly attempting to shoehorn some of the trademark levity he brought to The Avengers into a film that just wasn’t built for it. Since then, Snyder’s fans have demanded the release of his original cut of the film, in all its assumed grim and gritty and…

Anyone petty enough to spit in a customer’s food is petty enough to spit in his food because she objects to his haircut.

There’s Armenian restaurant that we noticed has only one coffee pot despite taking orders for both regular and decaf. When we asked the waiter which he was pouring, he said “yes.”

Make sure to put it on something soft. My parents put theirs on the same wood, rectangular stand as the TV and there’s a constant buzz.

Considering the patterns of his shows, I think there’s also a large element of leaving writing on autopilot with his staff to work on newer projects.

Or “normal strength thread.”

This one was a history of movement gay activism on r/askhistorians, this section focusing on how the ad-hoc nature of the early movement combined with ideologies concerning how queerness should involve a collective movement against conventional family structures and sexuality to allow the inclusion of a lot of weirdo…

In this case, people are making a claim that their religion bars vaccination when applying to a school from that religion that requires the vaccines.

Yes, I’m a homophobe because I’ve actually studied history and know about how the Gay Pride movement reformed itself to the Gay Rights movement in the 80's as its increasing prominence brought greater scrutiny. The NAMBLA reference was specifically to how the first gay rights group to be brought into the UN was kicked…

Eh, there’s an incidence factor. Most of the anti-vax claims rest upon the idea that getting a vaccine increases your risk of autism by much more than skipping the vaccine increases your risk of death.

I wonder how much we could do it in elementary school, as you can easily integrate it with reading, following directions, counting, and sharing a productive environment, which are the main things those grades are trying to teach.

Yeah, I meant more the teaching of woodworking that might make a kid think he should totally stick this saw in this wall.

You should go back and see how bonkers the left was for most of the twentieth century. The “few New-Age types, Hollywood people, and extremely privileged types who will not be told that they’re wrong” were the ones driving the grass roots, the Gay Pride movement thought that letting polyamory activists NAMBLA into…
