Traffic Jam.
It’s got a bunch of different berries and rhubarb sometimes. Slovacacek’s on I35 outside Waco makes the best.

Clytemnestra. Agamemnon sacrificed their daughter, disappeared to war for 10 years, shows back up with a sex slave and is just revered as a hero. Fuck that guy. I’m glad she killed him. He deserved it.
He’s actually been around since the Soviet Union. He perfected the art of invisible paper pushing.
I’m moving into a retirement community. Get in there early enough and they have to take care of you until you die. But before that point, retirement communities are like dorms without having to worry about grades or getting pregnant. Lotta syphilis, though, I hear.
You don’t think he’s spending any of that on his campaign or legal fees, do you? That’s his money.
His fundraising is going historically terrible right now.
I’ve seen lots of speculation that Trumbo is trying to get himself thrown in jail for the publicity of it all. It would result in a huge fundraising boost and conservative outrage, even if just for a short while, and no one wants to give him the satisfaction.
It’s this. He testified today, and earlier against Cohen, in exchange for immunity for crimes that he willfully and knowingly committed.
The Old Testament is the Hebrew Bible. The New Testament is the book where Jesus says, “f those first five books. Turn the other cheek.”
I’m in hill country. We had enough break in the clouds not to miss anything!
Like I said, it’s about viewership, and the UK brings very little of that compared to the US, Russia, and China.
If you really cared to see the best, you’d know who Simone Biles is. Everyone tunes in to see their guys win.
Yeah, Vincent had just as many no-hands bagel days as he did Starry Night days. If not way more.
The competition between USA, Russia, and China is what gets people to tune in, really. With anyone of those countries not participating, viewership tanks, is my guess.
There’s also the whole thing about eschewing politics. Traditionally wars were paused for the Olympics, but I’m pretty sure that’s irrelevant today, especially when the US led a boycott of the Moscow Olympics in 1980 and then Russia boycotted the Los Angeles Olympics in 1984. It’s really about viewership.
Oh and the IOC is notoriously corrupt. If Russia pays to participate, the IOC will find every which way to let them, no matter how badly they cheat and genocide, same with the US and China.
A lot of it also has to do with the pandemic. Tech companies got seriously bloated during the pandemic and now that people are spending money on in person experiences instead of virtual ones, the industry is contracting back to normal.
It has been understood by some for a long time, but not all. Especially when morbid curiosity is what brings visitors to your museum; without that morbid curiosity, you likely can’t make enough to stay open.
NAGPRA was renegotiated by a Native American Secretary of the Interior and, wouldn’t you know, having diverse voices helps people understand things differently, thus the massive change this year in the way museums display human remains. That’s a good thing. Be mad about the past so it doesn’t happen again, but also be glad that the display stops now.
As for using a cast, I’m sure they have one. But I don’t know if using one affects how medical research is conducted.
Oh yeah ETA: until the advent of the Internet, doctors coming to a place to examine collections of medical specimens was indeed the only way to do certain kinds of medical research.
There is likely medical knowledge to gain from seeing and understanding Gage’s injury that can help other people with headwounds. Not from the binding of a book.
The museum is permanently closed and its collections are only available to researchers by appointment only.
Not if you’re in a similar time zone, like someone the same-ish longitude in the same state (as illustrated). And we’re all on the same planet with the same moon, so even if it’s not visible in the sky, it’s still there.
Your autism is showing.
Ruby Franke is a religious extremist. Your mom might’ve called you a son of a bitch sometimes out of frustration. Along with the physical and emotional torture, Franke calling her kids “spawns of Satan” is an indication that she feels it is her spiritual duty to do anything and everything to get rid of the devil in her children, even if that means getting rid of the children. She would have let them die and not felt an ounce of remorse for it.
We typically don’t. The conservative synagogues in my hometown were really concerned about the Darfur genocide; hosting fundraisers and awareness campaigns. They all had signs out front that said “Never Again…in Darfur” but when it comes to Palestinians, the Boomers are just SO rabid.
You’re right; the Jewish community should do better and all the American Jews who send money and make major political donations should demand more, especially given our history.
