No, it has Christian roots. I'm Jewish, and I hate the term "Judeo-christian." We do not believe the same things, and we do not share the same history. Christians have been persecuting us for well over a thousand years, they've driven us out of our homes, murdered us en-masse multiple times in multiple different countries in multiple different centuries, and have refused to give us any respect and dignity until after World War 2, when it became politically convenient for them to do so.

Our values are different, our history is different, the only thing we have in common is that the Christians read our bible sometimes when it's convenient for them to cite it to reinforce their intolerance.

Are you seriously suggesting that this person soumd deliberately sabatoge a towns economy,after almost certainly having to lie to get elected in the first place, against the best interests of its inhabitants, just to personally enrich themselves?

Id be on board if you had said he should pass an ordinance banning Airbnb, that would be one thing, but you're suggesting he should make the whole town inhospitable to tourists and crush their economy so he can buy himself a house then fuck off

100% with you on Joplin, I use it all the time. I love it. I haven't yet found anything I like more.

I tried Obsidian recently and was turned off because the notes aren't encrypted in place like with Joplin. To me that's just a really nice privacy feature that I don't like the idea of sacrificing, especially not to a not open source project.

Joplin is another FOSS alternative to Obsidian. I've been using it for years; it let's you encrypt your notes in place so they can't be read without the client having the password to access them.

We can infer a lot from the size and position of its eye sockets. The eyes were position so as to be forward facing, not side facing like an herbivores.

This article has a really good pocture in it showing you a direct view of the eye sockets from the snout. Its cheekbones and nostrils are designed so that it's visual field easily would clear them, giving it binocular vision like ours. The study that article discusses used fossils to model what dinosaur faces would have looked like, then examined their visual field. The trex had around a 55 degree binocular range, which is larger than many predatory birds that we know to have excellent vision over long distances. It's eyes were also gigantic, allowing for a lot of light to get in.

As for sense of smell, I don't know how we know about it; I think we assume it did because it's nostrils were also huge, and because most animals today have good senses of smell, meaning it's a good adaptation to have and likely would be present on the largest land predator to ever exist.

Based on some of the people who got money I should have applied for A PPP loan and flat out lied on the application, used that to pay my student loans off, then had that forgiven.

It seems like it was DESIGNED to allow fraud like that to happen

Your other words all make it very clear that you only care about yourself so I'm not taking your word that you "care about a lot of people."

If you actually did you wouldn't be arguing and voting for taking away people's rights.

If someone can't tell that a FAN is plugged in without TWO LEDs (one on the fan itself, another in the plug) then I'm sorry they shouldn't own the fan, they may actually hurt themselves with it.

It's a fan. When you plug it in it spins. If it isn't spinning, you either didn't plug it in, or didn't hit the power button on the fan.

Do it bro it makes a huge difference. Blinking ones are even worse to me.

LMAO literally in the first 30 seconds this guy is clearly, openly a right winger. He's one of those "Christians are so oppressed and now they're coming for our kids" types.

This is such a garbage video, why did you post this? Literally half of it is him saying "I keep hearing about all these parents taking their kids out of school because of the gay stuff they're being indoctrinated with" but he isn't supporting any of it.

He is picking apart these statistics as if they matter but they don't. Yeah, time moves on. It's interesting that he doesn't use Gallup polls on race as a comparison because I guarantee you'd see similar jumps in acceptability around whether black people can be teachers. This guy just needs to accept that the world has moved past his homophobic worldviews.

It's hilarious that you told us to "watch the video and not be reactionary" when literally the first 5 minutes is entirely, explicitly reactionary content that presents nothing new or interesting.

I'm not watching more of this garbage video. It's just more right wing anti-LGBT "they're coming for your kids" propaganda.
