Fucking America… he’ll crash the economy even harder than last time when he declares himself dictator “for a day” and then that day keeps on adding days. This election shouldn’t even be close.
Norfolk Southern Railway reported fourth-quarter 2023 railway operating revenue of $3.1 billion, down 5%, and railway operating income of $808 million, down 32%, compared to Q4 2022 results.
Per this source, a 25 mile radius includes 585,000 people. That means (before lawyer fees so imagine half in actuality), Norfolk-Southern wants to give $1,000 per person for permanently poisoning not only their property but their body which is now forever scarred. This was filed for approval by the Plaintiff (people hurt) but as...
I’m in Terre Haute, which was in the path of totality. We went to a park south of town where there’s a pioneer village and they were having a mini festival. It was a decent-sized crowd, but nothing massive. We were able to drive home pretty much right away.
A judge in Washington state ruled Monday that the state’s ban on high-capacity ammunition magazines is unconstitutional — but the law will remain in effect while the state appeals the decision....
The Founding Fathers wanted Americans to have the right to shoot as many bullets as they want as quickly as they want wherever they want. They definitely foresaw high-capacity magazines when drafting the Bill of Rights.

Now you’re changing the subject from what you just claimed. This is what you said:
They are either getting paid to try to advance progressive issues or they are getting paid to sit in their asses and promise to try once they have enough people.
Are you going to admit that drafting a bill costs more taxpayer money than not doing so?
Because just hiring legal experts alone, which should absolutely be done before drafting a bill, costs more money than not hiring them.
Elon Musk‘s erratic posting on X, formerly Twitter, has come back to haunt him once again as a 22-year-old Jewish man pursues a defamation case over tweets in which the tech mogul baselessly suggested the recent college graduate was an undercover federal agent posing as a neo-Nazi during a street fight between far-right...

If you drink one glass of wine a month, that is neither bad nor a habit.
Do you eat comfort foods when you aren’t strictly needing substance? Vice.
Again, if you do this occasionally, it is neither bad nor a habit.
Do you binge watch television? Vice.
How is that a bad habit?
Do you doomscroll? Vice.
How is that a bad habit?
Do you do anything at all that you look back on and say ‘maybe that’s not the thing I should be doing’ and then go on and do it again? Vice.
I do everything I can to avoid this.
No one is so virtuous as to be absent of vice and your self-aggrandizing, holier-than-thou sentiment is disgusting and abhorrent and in my estimation, a vice.
“Saying you don’t have vices is a vice” makes not more sense than “saying you’re not a racist means you’re racist.”
I never said I was virtuous. I said I don’t have any vices. You certainly haven’t shown that I do, you’ve only shown that you don’t understand what ‘habit’ means and you have a very conservative idea of ‘bad.’
Habits are something I try to avoid unless they are beneficial.
