You could always just buy any TV with an an analog tuner and watch whatever’s on the air these days.

The “disbanding” of the pandemic response team is largely misrepresented. I don’t disagree with the rest, or see how it’s at all relevant to the current conversation.

If they aren’t better off, why wouldn’t they just say no?

So long as he doesn’t try to use them!

There have been so many studies showing that everyone from average joes to top-tier judges can’t tell the difference between cheap and expensive wines.

I like how you’re so high up on your horse that not only does is your team too good to have enemies, you can doublethink away any use of the term as impersonal.

Okay… But… Outside of conflicts of interest, wouldn’t those families be worse off without this unconventional life insurance policy?

Once you’re confident that they’re going to stick with it and know they can handle and maintain it carefully, then you should look into buying.

All ice cream (and related desserts) will get harder as they get colder. This is because more water freezes and the fat viscosity increases. If your ice cream isn’t hard enough, your freezer isn’t cold enough.

Lol, the only way to be more obtuse would be to say “our project name has no approved transliteration or Unicode string… Render this svg inline or don’t talk about us.”

Whew… I did not have “not living in a city is colonization” on my bingo card for today.
