It's a short bill, there is nothing slipped in. The trans ban is right in the main definition.

Because at the time, it wasn't long ago when they were, and at the time sometimes still were, so it's calling back to the craftmanship and evoking the feel of premium materials. Here's a 1970 Morris Traveler with structural wooden framed cargo compartment.

I'm guessing you didn't watch the video. They are clearly strolling in the middle part of it.

No courier has ever checked my identity when handing me a package, so I don't see how delivery verifies anything other than the address exists. Which you can do with a map.

Do you think these people read the instructions?

He was intelligent and articulate in the book as well. The real monster has always been Victor Frankenstein. His Creation is just a victim of circumstance, neglect, and prejudice.

US border agents have basically always had these rights. You have very little protections when crossing international borders. They started using them more after 9/11, and obviously even more in the past year. Theoretically many of these are requests and you can decline, but it will mean you won't be admitted into the country. (A citizen can decline and still be admitted, but there are no laws on how quick and pleasant that process must be... Wanna try ICE detention while they investigate you?)

The death trains were freight trains. US has excellent freight rail network.

Same, the refit is my most favourite Enterprise model out of all of them. The Galaxy -D is a close second, but there is just something about the proportions, especially the squat saucer, that doesn't work from certain viewpoints, whereas you can hardly find a bad angle of the refit Connie.

Yes, people collect them. Most of them aren't worth much anything, but there can be cards in there with significant value. What to do with them depends on how much effort you want to put in. Best return on value is checking each card individually for their price and selling the best ones, but that requires checking thousands of cards. Easiest is to sell them all as a single unsorted lot, but you won't get much. You can of course also just put them back to storage and return in another 25 years.

A left wing concept would be that you fix the society instead of "employ" a singular superhero that beats up the symptoms of that society, punishing those that are already hurt and disadvantaged by the system.

You could actually argue that a Spider-Man is inherently a right wing concept. Because in a left wing society there is no NEED for a Spider-Man, or a Batman, or any of the crime fighting superheroes. Those exist only because the society they inhabit creates the conditions for an exploited, desperate population that has no other avenue than crime and violence. No social safety nets, extreme inequality, corporate greed results in a Spider-Man, a Batman, etc.

You literally could have universal healthcare with the money you already pay for healthcare and still have money left over. Universal healthcare is *cheaper* than the stupid system you currently have.

"we don't" - So, the US then does *not* import 550 000 barrels per day from the Gulf countries like Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and UAE? You mean that non use of the strait?

Absolutely haunting. Beautiful work. I feel it's one of your best with the amount of emotion it exudes.

People have BEEN yelling that if you want change, vote in the damn primaries for candidates that will bring change! By the time election comes it's too late and you vote for whatever is the least shit candidate. Make noise sure, but you must vote. If you protest by staying home, the establishment will conclude that your demographic doesn't matter, because it doesn't. You didn't vote. Primaries you effect the change, election you eat the shit sandwich that is there until the change catches up.

They're okay, but nothing earth shattering. They're creamy for "normal" fruit, don't expect like marshmallow or whipped cream like. Worth to try at least once, but definitely not at that price.

We remember as well. We remember what you said about those who bled next to you in Afghanistan and Iraq. You can fuck right off.

That is literally not how anything in NATO worked. US was not paying a dime on any shortfall by other member countries. Every country is paying for their OWN defence with their OWN defence budget. The X% is not allocated or paid to NATO, it is spent by each country for their OWN defence. And if some country does not spend that amount, it simply is not spent. Nobody else will spend it in their stead.

NATO does have a membership fee to fund its command, but it's only few ten million per country.

If you had done literally absolutely nothing, you would have done a better job.

Remember: Before this stupid war keeping the global oil price low was a strategic move to limit Russia from being able to finance their war on Ukraine. Guess who's going to be laughing all the way to the bank now?

You've got the effect backwards. Supply shocks means higher profits, since prices go up worldwide. Only the area disrupted, ie. Gulf states, loses. For instance, none of the domestic US oil supply has become more expensive to extract and refine, but now it's selling for triple the price. What do you think that extra price is? Pure windfall profit the oil companies had to do nothing for.

I'll let you in on a little secret. Successful financial analysts are nor smart, they're lucky. Studies have shown that just randomly picking up stocks is a strategy that beats vast majority of investors. Which shows that not only are they not better than random chance, them trying to make predictions is *actively detrimental*.
