No way that guy has enough self-awareness to wear a shirt the that cool.

“I have never killed any one, but I have read some obituary notices with great satisfaction.”

But someone can make a board complaint if they can demonstrate false statements made by a member of the bar in connection with their representation. Chances are, nothing will happen… But it’s something.

Your assumption and conclusion is incorrect based on my experience. Why do you think people with personality disorders disproportionately populate executive positions in corporations? Why are sociopaths great surgeons? Look at rates of alcoholism and suicide amongst professions, and then tell me if those rates support your conclusion that mental health issues amongst those who make money is an outlier.

I only see it as a big fuck you to the eventual democratic candidate. He splits the “progressive” side of the vote and gets the Republican elected.

How is it irrelevant? If you are going to be so dismissive, you could at least use a “because” followed by reasoning… Otherwise i will dismiss your conclusion as flawed… Because at this point it is.

Some of that isn’t a choice. I know Bond traders that make millions a year, but are constantly overextended financially because, really, they are addicts. They have to take risks at all times… It’s a compulsion like any other addiction.

Turmeric is the best thing for my tendonitis to almost a miraculous degree. Take that for what it is worth.

My state’a standardized test says kids are “at risk” if they aren’t in the top 40% of the test. The top 50% could all be traditional “a-b” students. But because they weren’t in the top 80% of a-b students they are at risk for failing academically… It’s so asinine and disheartening. The last half of the year is devoted to this idiotic test. Kids could be learning stuff that will enrich themselves… Instead they are learnig how to take a test better.

I think your point makes sense if the meme defines “work” as broadly as you do: “any labor.”. However, i read the meme to refer to “work for others.”. So i think your criticism of it is on shaky ground because that criticism assumes and requires the existence of an intent that was not present.

Working for our own benefit or for the benefit of those we love is a natural inclination. Working for others, often harder and at a detriment to our own personal joy, without a comparable benefit to us and our family is not natural.

Ok. You don’t understand what sustainable means. Got it.

Huh? Your response doesn’t make sense. Were you intentionally ignoring the point of the op: coffee is more sustainable than non-renewable resources?

That’s like saying sunshine is free and then somebody trying to argue against that point but criticizing the price of sunscreen …

It’s not as convenient, but a moka pot makes the best single serving coffee I’ve experienced. You can get a small version for less than $30. It takes me less than 5 minutes to make a barista level cup, and even the more expensive coffee is going to cost less than 50 cents per serving.

The only downside is the coffee is highly caffeinated–nearly espresso levels. So you’re forced to add water if you just want a “cup” of coffee and it’s more of an Americano-style. But the taste beats the shit out of drip or Keurig cups…imo.

Without a base… Without a trace… Thank you jjgo!

I was raised in the city…shitty…ever since i was an iddy biddy kiddy drinking liquor out my mama’s tiddy.

Technically, both gun ownership rights and abortion rights were based on supreme Court interpretation of the 2nd and 14th amendments (respectively). Given the reversal of the right to abortion under the 14th amendment, an argument could be made that a similar reversal is due for the 2nd amendment as well. The 2nd amendment could simply be interpreted to mean that gun ownership is only a right as part of a "well regulated militia.'. In my opinion, that is the plain meaning of the provision anyway, but I’m just a gun toting liberal that doesn’t get sexually aroused or validated by the size of my firearm.

It’s hard to describe personal politics prior to 2000. It was easy to be a sane conservative in the 80s. There was obviously shady shit going on behind the scenes. But outwardly the conservative movement mostly espoused mainstream thought at the time.

Children of Dune is the only one i have to grin and bear. I love Good Emperor through Chapterhouse better than Messiah and only slightly less than the original.
