Because there are a whole crowd of people that realize that this should have happened sooner and would have without Citizens United. Bribery is free speech in the US right now. The only reason this is happening is that the wrong people were inconvenienced.
Anywhere diarrhea isn’t the norm. This means well water (holy shit is that a lot of digging) or treated water. Either way that shit costs money. The alternative is boiling. Tea and alcohol were popular for centuries for a reason. Clean Water is something of a modern luxury.
This situation is an example of idiots on both sides. The activist could have looked at Potato production in France and Filipino Farmers could have looked at the US South prior to enriched flour. Grow Golden Rice for export and it will become a commodity crop. I know several farmers in the US that would love to grow Golden Rice and no-one outside the Philippines can get the stuff due to the genetics group that is stupidly restricting it due to grain quantity. IF the Philippines doesn’t want it the rest of the world isn’t that dumb. You just got the money for humanitarian reasons you lucky fucks.

Honestly I don’t know how they dress, but it can’t be worse than us. I remember when pants hanging mid thigh was cool. We just got lucky boxers we’re the thing at the time.

I beat an ancient Egyptian god to death with a Q-tip. Any claim Assassin’s Creed might have had to approximating historical accuracy died several games ago even if we ignore the Ancient Aliens bullshit that’s been around since the begining.
Correct, they were looking for the “apple of eden” (golden orb from the first few games). It gets revealed by the end of the Renaissance arc that objects they are looking for are technological remnants of an ancient civilization that created humans as a slave race by stripping out parts of their own genetic code. It’s a bastardized version Sichin’s Ancient Aliens “theory”.
I was thinking about how I missed having an indoor thermometer that measures humidity. It’s such a small specific thing, one I’d never think of getting unless pushed to it (which I was by one particularly dry winter). But I like having one now....
That’s the thing though, their best track on the album, and probably their best ever, is about why they stick it out with each other anyway (at least as a band).

I think you and google are missing the difference between Jail, Prison, and Holding Cells. the combined unit you show is only common in Prison and long term county lvl jails; for cities/town/district jails and holding cells they may or may not even have a toilet as they are designed around an 4-8hr stay limit.
Most likely what happened is that a district detention got overwhelmed and just placed people in secure locations and lost track of them. Hanlon’s razor.
Well it’s good to know you are a cop (BS of CJ), as it means you aren’t an engineer. Given that I have designed jails, courthouses, and police stations I can say that your BS means basically nothing in this as you are mostly trained in criminal law rather than building code.
Holding time, local building code, and CA budget are the biggest constraints for the buildings in question. 4-8hrs holding period does not require and often doesn’t get a plumbing connection.
Less, one of the major genetic innovations of the late Cambrian was development of jaws. The vast majority of these species would get wrecked by modern fish in moments.

I wasn’t very impressed with the rest of the movie either. It was too Baba Yaga and unbelievable to me. What did you think?
