G/O is still the parent company of Gizmodo et. al.

Apparently when you click on a Twitter-shortened URL, it’s not just one interaction, but several:

Impeachment is a separate process from that of a criminal trial, and it is an earlier process. Because the office of the president is the head of the Department of Justice, it is currently departmental policy that a president cannot be charged with a federal crime until they no longer hold that office. It would…

There’s definitely a “Why Not Both?” scenario available here. Trump gets impeached by the House but not removed by the Senate. He could then get censured by one or both houses.

As much as I’d love it if the short-term results of that were the removal of Trump from office, having elected legislators vote on *anything* anonymously in their official capacities is a terrible precedent.

I’m a fan of the thumbs-up button in lieu of what would have been an “OK” or similar message, where all that’s needed to convey is that a message was read, understood, and not objected to.

Half-Life Three...

I don’t know for sure about the muffins. They’re tasty but not particularly fancy. 

I’d be a little surprised if we /never/ got a name for him. I’m cool with him being Baby Yoda until the show tells us otherwise. 

In the Raleigh / Research Triangle area, I’d have to go with Brigs. They’re a local chain with a handful of locations in Raleigh, Durham, and the nearby suburbs.

Cats have larger litters when they’re well-fed. 

I know cats are adorable, but unless you’re also trapping them and taking them all to the vet to get spayed or neutered, DON’T FEED STRAY CATS.

It’s possible that a large portion of customers are new subscribers taking advantage of the free trial on offer.

From someone who works in the tech industry on server-side applications, I find the simpler explanation more plausible:

“As with cable, there’s a lack of commercials”

You don’t have to play the rest of the series, but there are some significant story beats and changes in combat from the first Valkyria Chronicles that would make that game a bit less magical if you had already played VC4.

That was the same with Cataclysm’s announcement. We knew for months that leveling was going to become a lot more fun once the pre-expansion patch came out.

I disagree on the notion that a cosmetic feature won’t generate profit or increase sales, but otherwise you’re correct.
