what

I thought being religiously motivated also would qualify as a hate crime? Or is the implication that one’s religion is also immutable?

I don’t love to defend advertising/marketing, but your statement implies that once something has been advertised, organic interest/enjoyment becomes impossible.

Sure, there might’ve been a big ad push that rocketed mayo to the top of people’s condiment lists. But there are dozens of other things that could also create interest (new foods that pair well with it, new recipes that are shared culturally, loss of a competing product, diet changes)

I’m unfamiliar with the mineral rights treaty specifics, but I remember it being said that it was a pretty shite deal for Ukraine anyway, and that it likely wouldn’t have been signed anyway

I only went back to read the comment because you told me you upvoted it. I wanted to make sure it was worthy.

!it was!<

Agreed. Not sure it’s quite $100k cool, but still cool.

There’s no reason that guilt would be absent from helpinghelp a specific person in need (like your struggling mother example). Plenty of people feel guilty taking handouts and will outright refuse help when they might need it.

As for the drive thru thing, I think you might be talking about something different than what I’ve seen/done, which is just paying for your own meal and the people behind you. There isn’t any expectation for them to continue some chain, and in many ways it’s a bit of an empty gesture (they are just taking that first person’s goodwill and passing it to the next in line).

My interpretation of paying it forward is the premise of receiving something when you’re in need, then, when you’re able, to give something back. Not to the one who helped you, as that would be repaying a debt.

not a typo

This amuses me

Do they need a “strategy” when the whole point of a primary is to find a suitable candidate?

In the same way that watching porn on public transit is a social no-no

I think you’re taking it the wrong way. I understand it as “anything negative about Biden, is also true about Trump”

• Biden is old, so is Trump
• Biden struggles speaking cohesively, so does Trump
• etc.

It’s just a population map

The takeaway I think they were trying to give was that the same experiments done on a more modern OS does not have these same “instant” infections (they reference having windows 7 under the same conditions without any issue)

What’s amusing to me is that they referred to the job interviewer having similar reliability, but didn’t say whether it was good or not. Purely let the bias of the article imply that they were highly reliable.

Agreed. For the other side of the Atlantic, it is ground or 1st floor, 2nd floor.
