This issue has come up before multiple times for them (I swear the NY road story started earlier this year too). While the folksy story about visiting family and wanting a snack is neat, there is the core that these establishments are part of the framework to ensure there are enough places for people to stop to use a…

I’m not sure about your area but that is not how it played out in SoCal.

The core of TSA proclaiming efficacy is that they had not had another 9/11 style event involving planes. The problem is that they cannot prove their presence has actually had any impact on that. Likewise, as they have to open themselves up to inspection and fail tests which likely even have advance notice to the…

That is a tough one, it’s better than him being in general population, but if medical prisons are the same as the US then he won’t get help. At the same time, it also depends on the guidelines for what it means that he is no longer a danger to society.

Okay, can you expand on that? What kind of bloat do you see with relation to the pandemic?

Oh wow, not even a meat? It’s one of those things where it’s an experience more than being about the food. 

Yeah, the cheapness can be a boost but I’m not sure about other parts but in my part of SoCal, the common places they end up have raised their prices to be in line with other places. We went to a brunch place for a work lunch because drinking was needed and getting some weird eggs benedict dishes cost less than an…

But what is the solution to the costs when there is a quality expectation with those costs? Studios and publishers agree costs are too high and want to do the same work with fewer staff and paying them less but that doesn’t work since no one will go there.

That is one of the confusing things to me... why are old men so obsessed with breakfast (diner ones especially). Not brunch, just breakfast. 

My guess is that it is a combo of the small sizes of the consumers and possibly them eating a greater quantity over time. As lead will hang around a while, if your kid is eating one or more a day it’s going to build up fast.  

Welcome to the Jungle, we’ve got... non-food additives and unsafe handling practices.

While Jones is trying to pat himself on the back, neither the FDA nor the USDA actually caught before it made it to the consumers. The only reason they even were aware was self-report from someone who took their kid to the doctor for a checkup and the bloodwork came back with the elevated levels. It is entirely…

I mean, if it was just flown out with others or moving the jet there for another flight, it wouldn’t be quite as bad (still excessive). Now if it was literally loaded on a plane just for that it would be even more wasteful. 

Are any of those recent titles though? They don’t have active official dev support right? Like I couldn’t contact the publisher if I needed something.

But by that logic it would mean the death penalty is an effective deterrent, and we know it is not. You’re never going to resolve crime issues at the penalty stage, especially as the US moved away from rehabilitation and just warehouses people.

Looks like only civil suit, and as he was 16 at the time any charges would probably be expunged from the record. Even the journalist who broke the news stopped following. 

Considering the other things protected in the same group, it’s basically brand new in terms of age. Far too new to try and claim procedural processes and protections. At the same time, does any of it matter? 

Probably should also run a story on the dangers of drinking gasoline to save on booze. 

I find them weird but not creepy, especially the ones where they are maintained for years or even decades. Adding balloons, seasonal decor, etc. I get grieving but sometimes it may be them being unable to let go.

That is sort of another way you can do it, but much of these util exercises are only in post experience reflection and while it can have some predictive elements, it mostly won’t change anything.
