A Universal Basic Income was also referred to in the first official FAQ, distributed by AOC’s office for the Green New Deal. 

Shouldn’t carnivorous bunny cosplay be on Kotaku?

Some politicians as black descendants of relatively recent, and economically very successful immigrants, are not well situated to preach about reparations, because they are an example of how inequitable that would be.

It can be quite hard to cook today’s huge chicken breasts long enough to prevent them from being bloody in the middle. We might start cutting them in half or something.

At my store, per the health department, we are required to do bar towels, soaking them in bleachwater. Bar towels can be quite cheap in bulk, online. Only use the gold stripe, which are durable enough to be washed several times. Cost can be 50 cents each in quantity.  If you just use them once and wash them, then you…

Mostly  greeters were for a psychological deterrent to shoplifting and to spot obvious security issues.  As technology advances, the role can change.  Maybe Walmart feels their video analytics and other security are much better at tracking potential thieves around the premises, and so people at the door already, can…

We use a pressure fryer at the store and it takes about twenty minutes to cook twenty four pieces of fried chicken.  The longest cooking time necessary is for split breasts, which are the largest.  That and the number of pieces determine the cooking time.  Less than a full load on the fryer can take less time. …

I finally found a close up, almost head shot that showed the triangle button, up close. It is a stylized KKK hood. Within the triangle are two black dots representing eye holes. Maybe this was swag from the Premiere of “Blackkklansman” ?

Well, I guess we know how friendly an environment Brazil will be to intellectual property.

There are as many as five potential cases, prosecutors in various jurisdictions are considering bringing against him.  That’s hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal bills.  If he can’t afford a good defense, then he might be forced to cop a plea, even if he is innocent of some of the charges.  

It takes about 45 minutes to cook fried chicken in an open top fryer with oil at a moderate temperature that optimizes the oil life, about 350 F. Consequently, they probably are cooking some chicken in advance and holding it. A pressure fryer can reduce cooking time to about 20 minutes, again keeping that temperature…

Why is Spike Lee cosplaying a purple bus driver at the Oscars.  And are the buttons featuring a white pyramid a Hotep thing?

These goodies would cost twice the 2018 GDP of the U.S. , one third more than the total present National Debt. Total wealth of the top 1% was probably about 38% of the $88.1 Trillion as of 2016 which is $34 Trillion.  So, if you soak them for a 100% (unconstitutional) wealth tax, that’s not enough to pay for the Green…

“It is a documented, provable fact that a majority of white people have always believed that talking about racism makes it worse.” Perhaps more precisely, talking about racism makes us look worse. Those of us with inflated egos might mistake that for the big picture.

But, isn’t Elon Musk’s evil AI going to write all our emails, better than we can?

Generally, I like the idea of a less complicated expungement process for many crimes, not just for marijuana related crime.  Not too many people who are eligible for expungement, bother with the time consuming, and for some embarassing or expensive process.  Ultimately, as with marijuana, a lot of dumb, ancient…

I personally have been inside a tent with CS concentrated CS, tear gas and also exposed to customers wearing copious, cheap perfume. I stand by my opinion.  As for the rest, to clarify, the teacher should suffer consequences.  The student should be decontaminated.   

As nobody is actually drafted into wars, the draft has been not much more than a political football in recent years, with its purpose for the left mostly to frighten women into opposing wars and on the right, not much more than a litmus test for support of the military. Weapons systems and combat are too complex these…

Air quality in San Francisco is substantially better than fifty years ago.  Suggesting that Bay Area air will be worse in twenty years is lying. 

Ruining black people with unproven accusations of rape or other allegations of a sexual nature, is a form of racism, that is well established. It isn’t lynching, but has often enough been used to incite a lynch mob, as in the Emmitt Till lynching. Must you compartmentalize the incitement and the murder? Or is it…
