Did you ever drink Baileys from a shoe?

Seriously though, why did Jesus curse that fig tree? He could be weirdly petty.

BTW, myrrh had lots of uses besides embalming.

She's also the one who's been most vocally whining that Trump isn't paying her legal bills. I'm sure she'd be singing a different tune if she wasn't facing bankruptcy.

This is a ridiculous take. The plea deal was in a Georgia state RICO case, the rioters were tried in federal courts for totally different crimes. Powell, Cheese Bro, et al. still face charges in Jack Smith's inquiry.

Except almonds. Almonds are terrible water wasters, and mostly grown in California where they can least afford the water.

In my discipline we only pay if we want the article to be open access. Are there journals that charge $1000 and still put articles behind a paywall?

I'm really surprised the DA took this to trial. I can't imagine a jury in the US that would have returned a conviction.

"Stadtliche luft macht man frei" is an old German saying. City air makes you free. Life in a small town can be stifling. That close-knit family wants you to be just like them. God forbid you want to do or see anything new. The moving-to-a-big-city trope is as old as cinema, and has strong roots in reality.

There was some good foreshadowing about the hair early on. Solid post 👌

I assume a rich asshole bought it, assuming he could demolish it, found out it is protected, and is now trying to pass the relocation costs on to some other rich asshole. I don't even see how this place can be moved though, it looks like masonry on a slab.

Thanks for that very thoughtful statement. I am fine with keeping them federated and letting individual users block what they don't want to see. I find it interesting to see what different communities have to say, even if I find it abhorrent.

We have term limits in Florida. They have done nothing to solve any problems, and arguably have made the quality of our officials worse, while giving much more power to lobbyists.
