Absolutely. Anyone willing to treat a stranger this way is unequivocally a shitbag.

She will die alone, whether she is married or not.

I thought the same thing. Then I thought about how powerful of a visual it would have been for each one of them, in turn, to cause a disruption and be escorted out. Let the cameras pan over a half filled chamber after 2 hours of meticulous protesting. That image would be in history books 100 years from now, assuming we all survive the next 4.

The best part about this, and the one I don't see echoed enough, is that Cavill is a nerd. And I mean that in the best way. He ignored the call casting him as Superman because he was in a WoW raid.

He is invested in the Witcher series because it means something to him. He's played the games, read the novels, and he was constantly pushing back on the writers and producers for straying. "Geralt wouldn't do that, or Yennefer wouldn't say that..." Etc. I love that he was passionate enough about it to stick to what he knew was correct.

If I recall correctly, this guy started working there after he retired from a government job. Just bored and wanted something to do, and he credited it with keeping him active enough to live as long as he did.

I came here to say there was probably a context clue or three, namely the price.

I don't know this fella, but he is either so out of touch with how much things cost that he doesn't pay even the slightest attention, or (gasp) he is making up a story for the Internet.

I'll be super shocked when we find out the reluctance to use the contingency funds has everything to do with those funds already being "reallocated" elsewhere.

He may not have disregarded anything. He is aware of your perception of his advice. If he feels like he is declining, but still wants to be there for you, this could very well be desperation to stay involved and still try and help. Unfortunately we all decline as we age, some worse than others. Make him feel appreciated even if you don't get a tangible benefit from his advice any longer. Stay engaged with him, let him feel valuable. Older generations tend to decline even quicker if they no longer feel valuable and instead feel like a burden.

I've been in court. A lot. I've never seen a seated defendant flanked by armed cops. When heightened security is called for, it's present but not performative; it's functional. The level of theatricality they use is nuts.

Bombed the place so hard they killed all the color.

This is correct and most people don't know this. Your Miranda rights protect you against self-incrimination during questioning. They are not rights which must be read to you upon arrest. Some cops (and TV shows) use them this way. However, as 'spontaneous utterances' are recognized by the court, you only need to be advised of your rights prior to incriminating questions being asked.

Maybe they don't attend church. Maybe they aren't even religious. How does this help anyone?

"Maybe they should join a crochet club and find a wholesome woman."

That's how ridiculous you sound.

You must have missed the details in the article. OPM has listed on their website under 'fork'. The deadline for acceptance is 6 Feb, and the resignation will be effective at the end of September. There is no back and forth with HR; you simply reply to their email with the word 'resign' or you don't and remain employed until the loyalty police come around.

Speaking of which:

Here's the article without signing up or whatever I would have to do to read it.

What kind of data is Duolingo amassing that anyone would care about? I just checked the permissions, and it doesn't have anything enabled which would not be necessary for it to function. Unless the government is interested in my mangled pronunciations or foreign words?

Oh, I see. This is where they make their stand? This was too much for them? They're all worthless bastards.

Ah yes, Marlon Muckerberg.

I've had this same issue, and tried lots of things. Bar Keeper's friend, that orange paste crap they sell, all of these are abrasive and scratch the surface of the ceramic, allowing the stains to get worse.

The answer is two-fold. To clean it, fill the sink with very hot water, like near boiling. Then, mix in some powdered oxi clean and let sit for 15ish minutes. You will be amazed when you drain the sink how clean it is.

The second step is to reseal the sink with a commerical product, I found several on Amazon. This will prevent it from happening again, but not as well as when the sink was new. I haven't found any products that reseal it quite as well as the factory sealant.

Hope this helps you.

They sure do, which is why the military prosecutors are being appointed as Special Assistants to the US Attorney. What do you think happens when civilians commit crimes on federal military installations? They can't be charged due to this loophole? No civilian US Attorney is going to waste their time, and locals have no jurisdiction. SAUSAs have long been the DoDs answer to this problem.

Also, just to be clear, I'm not defending this move whatsoever, but claiming they can't doesn't make it so.
