"I have never killed any one, but I have read some obituary notices with great satisfaction."

Live-Throwing Copper. It's an absolute masterpiece. Their other albums have some gems, but the rest of the discography is nowhere near the quality of TC.

Without a base... Without a trace.... Thank you jjgo!

Oldest existing democracy, not the first one to ever exist. Here is an article that discusses the basis and legitimacy of this claim: https://www.valuewalk.com/top-10-countries-with-oldest-democracies/

I’ve never wished a man dead, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure.

This is common. In Tennessee, a judge won't divorce you if pregnant because it would effectively bastardize the child. By statute, there is a presumption that husband is dad if wife is impregnated during marriage. You can't divorce without a parenting plan. So you have to wait until birth to rebut the parentage presumption. I had a client try to get around it by requesting a test of the amniotic fluid, but the judge wouldn't allow it because of the potential harm to the child.

It's the internet dude. Everything is fetish content to someone.

That's a key component of the flat earth ideology. They are idiots. Don't be an idiot.

Those comments are fine. The only ones pissed off about them are insincere fear mongers and genocidal apologists.

I only see it as a big fuck you to the eventual democratic candidate. He splits the "progressive" side of the vote and gets the Republican elected.

But someone can make a board complaint if they can demonstrate false statements made by a member of the bar in connection with their representation. Chances are, nothing will happen... But it's something.

No. He kept his pockets lined with cash from the coal industry.

No thanks. Sounds too much like republican strategy to me.

My microbiome is filled with microplastics... So I'm guessing a couple ibuprofen won't kill me.

Best way to do it imo

The universe will still exist.... But the end of the human animal is most certainly nigh.

You just keep shifting your argument to create some sort of sympathy. I guess. No one says a rich person isn't a victim. The point is is being a victim as a wealthy and influential woman like Taylor is a lot different than being a victim in a working class context. If you disagree with that, then you're either being intellectually dishonest or living in a dream world.

Even the law agrees. It's a lot harder as a celebrity to win a defamation lawsuit than it is being a normal person. You typically have to show actual malice. Frankly, that's the legal standard that would probably apply to any lawsuit involving the deep fakes anyway.

That's not their point and you know it. Get your bad faith debating tactics out of here.

She isn't living "every woman's nightmare" because a woman without the wealth and influence Taylor has might actually suffer significant consequences. For Taylor, it's just a weird Tuesday. For an average small town lady, it might mean loss of a job, loss of mate, estrangement from family and friends... That's a nightmare.

Hollow Knight. Never played it before. Not a huge fan of the genre, but there is no denying that the game is well made.

Probably a magnitude of force issue. If they didn't legitimately fear for their life, then deadly force in response would be a crime.

I think the implication in all personal freedom discussions is: freedom so long as it doesn't unnecessarily harm others. You may have freedom of speech in America, but that doesn't protect the right to falsely yell "fire" in a crowded theater.

If so, then they are horrible scientists.

I was raised in the city...shitty..ever since i was an iddy biddy kiddy drinking liquor out my mama's tiddy.

I think all of their albums have songs equal to or better than SFTD. Is SFTD the most consistent throughout?? I don't know. This coming from a guy that had SFTD in his cd player from 2002 to 2006. I

You sir\madam are not a nice person.

I see death around the corner, gotta stay high while i apply for equitable relief from Judge Frye.

You are assuming that a good democratic candidate wouldn't win. Maybe a good democratic candidate never ran because they didn't want to split the vote.

My response was "because I'd like to be a member of a second instance.". They rejected my application.

Technically, both gun ownership rights and abortion rights were based on supreme Court interpretation of the 2nd and 14th amendments (respectively). Given the reversal of the right to abortion under the 14th amendment, an argument could be made that a similar reversal is due for the 2nd amendment as well. The 2nd amendment could simply be interpreted to mean that gun ownership is only a right as part of a "well regulated militia.'. In my opinion, that is the plain meaning of the provision anyway, but I'm just a gun toting liberal that doesn't get sexually aroused or validated by the size of my firearm.

That's utter fucking ridiculous!

The 12 year old should have had a gun so she could've shot the incoming bullet.

Forsooth, Top Drawer, Ahoy ahoy...etc.

If they vote for a republican then so be it. Better than a Republican in Dem's clothes. Besides, maybe when people have an option that is better than "shitty fake dem" versus fascist, maybe they'll surprise you.

Ranked choice voting is our only hope.

Children of Dune is the only one i have to grin and bear. I love Good Emperor through Chapterhouse better than Messiah and only slightly less than the original.

It can be both

Praise the sun.

Not acting is still a choice.

They aren't in my experience. They are stressed about increasing cognitive dissonance.
