But it IS how we see prices. If there weren’t science behind it, they wouldn’t be doing it.

Absolutely fucking brilliant.

This is a fantastic post. Thank you. I do know that the Feds often use the Commerce Clause to put the lie to my original statement, but with the abandonment of Roe, I’ve repeatedly heard “it’s in the hands of the States” so maybe my hope is that someone somewhere my see a need to remain intellectually consistent.

Pipe dream, but a nice thought.

Not progressive, and I roll my eyes at many things California does. That said I 100% applaud this. I wish more states used their power as individual states to reign in the Federal government.

Remember The Constitution says any rights not specifically granted to the Feds are the States.

Good for California.

This sounds like exactly my response to a ”Christian” movie. They are so ridiculously bad because to earn the label “Christian” they have to be preachy.

We had just moved from Portland to Denver, and were trying new restaurants. One Sunday we ordered delivery from a local Chinese place that had good reviews. Food came, we ate and all was good for a couple of hours.

Then my wife said "I think I’m gonna puke* and dashed for the bathroom. Being the good husband, I followed her to hold her hair while she worshipped the porcelain god.

She had barely got done emptying the content of her stomach, when I literally had to shove her out of the way to emoty mine.

We were both miserable for about 36 hours.

I just finished listening to all 14 Honor Harrington novels.

I could see Mt St Helens from my bedroom window in Portland. I did not see the first eruption but watched the second.

A while back a woman died after eating at a Disney restaurant and being assured that the food she was ordering was allergen free. Disney responded very poorly to the husband’s suit, but I wonder if the Disney employee believed things were allergen free because of one of these hacked menus.

That’s really a valid point.

Boredom after some period of time, you will have some everything there is to do.

The number of times I have been down voted for telling young ADHD sufferers to lean into the advantages of ADHD instead of bemoaning the disadvantages, are numerous.

I have to regiment myself every day, if it’s a boring same-old day with nothing urgent. I purposely put things off to increase urgency so I can accomplish mundane tasks. BUT when the shit hits the fan, I thrive. I can take multiple simultaneous inputs from vendors and engineers and pissed-off business people, and correctly direct and respond to those inputs when others are falling apart due to stress.

Lean into your strengths! If you have ADHD. You have a super power. Use it!

Why? Is it not Hamas run? If it’s not Hamas run, then it shouldn’t be called Hamas run, but if it is Hamas run what’s the issue?

EA used to be amazing. My first two games were Archon and Seven Cities of Gold in the Amiga 1000.

They were great games. EA didn’t start to really suck until the era of the Internet.

Conservatives typically win by promising what they will not do vs. what they will do. (At least the true conservatives do. Not all Republicans are conservative though)

I use Plex’s download feature to make sure I always have music available. The same could be done for other media but I don’t bother.

My Plex server runs in my home and all my media is available outside my home. A travel server seems like a solution for a problem that doesn’t really exist.

I love this conversation. I came in expecting a dumpster fire and saw respectful thoughtful responses.

Everyone knows this duh!

Into your heart!
