A little from column A, a little from column B.

Absolutely. And yet… they definitely want to be able to remove people from voting rolls.

Sure. But they already fired or demoted most of the military leadership that wasn’t on board with following absolutely any order, legal or otherwise. So now the “dilemma” falls mostly to lower-level officers and enlisted.

They have backup waste collection methods. It’s a lot less pleasant, is all.

In order to stabilize the milk they use in the milk chocolate bars and make them last longer on the shelf, they treat it with a process that converts some of the milk fats into butyric acid. That’s the vomit flavor. I’m sorry to report that it has probably always tasted that way, you just didn’t notice. They’ve been using the same process since the early 20th century.

At the risk of making a sexist comment, she should have been wearing a scrotum for those gigantic balls.

Not safe for leggings?

Remember when he said his amazing new healthcare plan to replace the ACA was “coming soon”? That was 10 years ago.

DHS was created in direct response to the 9/11 attacks. It is an agency that was created with the goal of coordinating efforts and information sharing between multiple other agencies so that we don’t miss the signs of a terror attack again. But, as many people predicted at the time, that mission has been blurred and subverted. We now have a massively bloated and over-funded agency that acts like it is in control of all the other agencies it was meant to coordinate, without any real mandate to give them such authority. I’m in favor of getting rid of them altogether.

Part of it has to do with the fact that most of the oil we extract in the US now is shale oil, which is lighter and thinner than what they pull out with traditional extraction. Most of the refineries in the US are not equipped to process shale oil, so we export most of it, and import what we can process.

Would you dare to suggest she does not?

We really just need to work on ourselves.

Exactly. And as we’ve already seen in some places, a passing trans person trying to use the “correct” bathroom according to law is more likely to get harassed or even assaulted as a result. These laws don’t fix an actual problem, they just create an environment where innocent people will be punished for the crime of existing in a public space.

Some do, probably, yes. Some actually believe in this chain of “logic”. Those people really do believe that trans people are a threat to the safety of others. Odds are good those people have never talked to, or possibly even met, a trans person.

I appreciate the sarcasm, but their actual “thought process” (yes, that belongs in quotes) goes something like this:

• Real trans people don’t exist.
• Therefore, anyone claiming to be trans is either in need of mental healthcare to “fix” them, or else they are lying.
• If they are lying, then their attempt to use an opposite gender bathroom means they must be doing so for reasons that put other people in danger.
• In order to “protect” people from the lying liars, we need to make it illegal for someone to be in the “wrong” restroom.

Oh, sure. The 2, 3 and Mini all use the same control app and have access to the “lab” for processing. That all happens online, not on the device. I’m not super crazy about using their tools, though, because I like having a little more control and knowledge about what is being done to produce the result.

I used the megastack feature to combine the two nights’ data. I post-processed the resulting FITS file with seti astro suite. I might go back and re-stack using siril to see if I can pull any more detail out, but I’m pretty happy already.

I think you meant morale, but I guess it works both ways.

Good to know. This is actually the first time in… Jesus, 30+ years?.. I’ve attended a concert outside the US. I might start looking at shows in Vancouver more often.

This isn’t even about what they write. They’re trying to stop press from even asking questions they don’t want asked. They could just refuse to answer, but apparently that’s not enough.
