Some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses.

Reconstruction needed at least 50 more years before it ended, instead the feds threw in the towel, and rights got snatched away so fast, with too few caring cause they were white, and weren't living in the south.

Am I getting even worse at reading? I didn't see anywhere in that article where it actually says what he did. How is it that he specifically saved them. Seems like that's too many people to have personally picked them up on his back and carried them to safety. Feels a bit like the Family Guy segment where Lois constantly says '9/11' to win political arguments. "He saved 165 campers!"

That being said, I'm very glad he was there doing his job and was able to save 165 people from dying... somehow.

When a daddy pencil and a mommy cassette love each other very much...

It's stupid for everyone but the politicians. This looks good to the most reliable voting bloc, and is dangerous to everyone.

unruly squirrels, bears, moose, etc.

Two of the three see like an invitation for death, and the other quite the accuracy assessment.

How well would these work for pruning shears?

That looks like telephony cable to me. With googly eyes added on. So life-like!

Used to belong to a Homebrewing forum (beer, not computer servers), and they had monthly post about someone wanting to infuse their beer with tobacco. Which is where I learned that it will kill ya dead. Tobacco can be used externally to reduce swelling, chew on a wasp sting will prevent a lot of it. Or if you're looking for trouble late in life I guess you could smoke it also, though that one seems a great deal less compelling to me.

Re-iterate - Don't eat any food made with tobacco, it will harm you at the very least.

It's not about being dropped, it's about the cash not coming from the DNC, and then other DNC allies contributing to the independent candidate. Mamdani will be the (D) on the ballot. It does not mean that the DNC will give him one cent if they don't like his politics.

Seems like people are talking past each other here. He will be representing the DNC on the ticket, and the DNC is likely to provide absolutely no support to him, as he doesn't match what "they" "wanted".

Furthermore, in the negotiations, they have allowed a lot of infrastructure projects to be counted towards this percentage calculations. So, there may not be much in the way of new actual military spending, just improving the roads/rails of the agreeing countries. That seems a lot easier to sell to the folks that are further from Russia.
