Crazy that he wouldn't have to identify who he is acting as proxy for at the beginning of the relevant meeting or session.

Right? The guy won two elections, and nearly won in 2016. Congress could stop this tomorrow if 3 out of 4 of them said "no this stops here". This is not continuing by accident, but because a lot of people want it to happen.

The Imgur app gets up to weird shit; check out what it tries to connect to with one of those android privacy monitoring apps.

In 1977 Epstein was 24, and had just started at Bear Stearns the prior year.

Don't worry, within America the 13th amendment will keep everyone safe from slavery. There's not some weird exception in there in the case of being a "criminal", right?

Depends on your country. A number of countries consider any portrayal of an underaged person to be CP, even if it's a drawing or an of-age performer portraying a minor.

I think it's conservation of angular momentum. When she is handed the tire it's flipped a certain way and everything is stationary. When she flips the tire she adds energy to the system that has to go somewhere. If she was handed the tire "vertically" she could go in both directions.

The officer doesn't seem like a particularly bright bulb, making side comments about how he doesn't like the chief on his bodycam and on the radio...

That ticket was going to court. If the judge asked why he issued the ticket, "the guy on the radio told me to" is a bad answer. Giving the officer permission to do whatever they thought was best might have been the most support that was appropriate at that time.

Thank you, I was trying to figure out why the island thing worked!

They did of course go into target stores, smash up displays, and threaten employees; causing Target to back down by removing items from its store and toning down its support of “Pride Month”.

It wasn’t all buying stuff to destroy in their backyards.

The weird thing is that it sounds like Musk unlocked it - which implies the vehicle still had power and was on the cell network?

Crypto and fiat currency share that "we all agree this has value therefore it has value". The whole point of crypto is that nobody can just scribble on a sheet of paper to make more currency - the protocol and public ledger ensure that nobody can 'magic' money into being. Trump picked the one way that fiat and crypto differ.

Younger marriages seem common in religions where polygamy is more common too. A birth rate that's roughly 50:50 means that some men won't ever have an opportunity for a female partner; so it seems like there's an incentive to lock in a marriage early. See for instance Mormon communities where polygamy is practiced.

You can get 100 off of Amazon for like $10. Buying cheap plastic ducks seems firmly within reach of the middle class.

Yeah - you need to do a tax return, why isn't there a box for "Please Update My Voter Registration"?

It's a joke from an episode of The Simpsons. The revered town founder has a quote about how "hearts can be enbiggened". One watcher says to another that they've never heard the word "enbiggened" outside of Springfield, and the other replies that "it's a perfectly cromulent word". So the joke seems to be that Springfield has all sorts of 'local words' that no one else in the world uses (perhaps as a result of the founder using them wrong and no one correcting it).

I think you do have to turn each page; but there's a pulley to raise the silver metal and glass part that holds the books open; so it seems like it'd be a quick operation to raise the glass -> turn the page -> lower the glass, photos, repeat.

Ivanka has steered clear of this election; I think after her terrible experience last time she doesn't want any part of what's about to happen.
