I saw this before I saw anything from the accounts.

Not to mention those that know someone who has diabetes.

I'd even, gasp, go so far as to say I'd happily give it away to citizens and illegal immigrants alike. Oh hell, everyone on the planet. No strings attached.

This is where my taxes should go. I can't stand the rhetoric that it's bad tax payers are footing the bill for those without insurance and those here illegally. That's what a society is supposed to do.

That's something that Disney regularly has a problem with. They used to find interesting, compelling stories that writers were excited to create.

Now, most of their films are being pushed from the top to expand their known IPs or messaging. The story has become secondary to the product.

Bob Iger said just a couple years back that they had a few flops with new ideas and we're going to focus on existing IPs and brands. He's leading Disney into a second direct to home video sequel era. Just like the one that nearly killed the company in the 80s.

Disney is riding high on nostalgia and brand recognition but is quickly burning their capital of good will. The youngest generation isnt getting that same nostalgia that's going to turn them into Disney fans like the 90s kids had. We're 30 something's with a bit of disposable income, and Disney is bleeding us dry after making us their primary demographic. They no longer cater to families, and they no longer are looking to make new, young fans.

It's honestly depressing to see how much that company has fallen. I got hired to work at Disneyland back in 2008 and spent 8 years of my life trying to bring happiness to the guests that came there. I agreed with and worked hard to bring their message to life. But in my time there, and since, I've seen a continual shift from taking care of their employees, making it a great place to work, and to make the best entertainment they can.

“Why shouldn’t federal troops empower the people in Chicago to live safe lives when the governor and the local mayor (Brandon Johnson) just simply refuse to do their job?” -Vance

What he's saying is "why shouldn't we be able to unilaterally make decisions for the people of a City in direct opposition to those individuals will and what they voted for? And why shouldn't we be able to use force and violence to do it?"

I can only hope there is justice in this world and he gets to face a jury and is held accountable for his words and actions.

"a career criminal with a rap sheet dating back to 1980s"

What a shitty way for ICE to refer to someone WRONGFULLY CONVICTED AND IMPROSONED since the 1980s.

He isn't a career criminal. He isn't a career anything. He had the opportunity to have a career stolen from him.

They were going to do it anyway. Shut down or not.

They planned for either option and we the people are losing our. Either passing the CR or shutting down the government.

The other option is rapidly degrading to be murdered instead.

Fighting back against fascism and tyrannical applications of force is not being fascist.

This is like, the least shitty part of dodger stadium.

They really fucked over the local barrios to get that land.

It's so disingenuous. Their employment is way up and their interactions with people, both those they are targeting and the general public are way up.

If I were literally any company, if I increased my workforce by over 1000% I'd expect anything happening to them to increase by at least 1000%.

 

Working in attics is horrible, but the payoff is so, so good.

 

How can I bring this forward so the junction box is accessible?

Do I just get enough single gang extension rings to bring it out far enough to sit flush with the drywall?

Or do I add an access panel on the drywall?
