In Australia the coal and gas industries appear to be pushing nuclear quite hard, mainly because they distract from the renewable options preferred by the market. They know that while we’re arguing over literally every other power source, they can just keep burning holes in the ground.
The best thing about his presidency was his total incompetence in getting what he wanted. Imagine what would happen if Steve Bannon or Steven Miller were more than just the puppetmasters…
Those people were already voting for him. No one is saying, ‘Oh no, they just found a criminal guilty of a crime! That’s not the American way!’
Well, a few billionaires and their SCOTUS lackeys might, but we’ll see.
Why? There aren’t too many undecided voters who will suddenly decide, ‘Hey, he’s definitely a criminal, so I might just give him my vote.’
And anyone who doesn’t think he’s guilty was already going to vote for him anyway.
How is it gaslighting? Gaslighting isn’t simply making (unfounded) accusations.
Except for the anti-Semites, who make up a decent chunk of his active base. Or are they also pro-Israel?
Can anyone explain to me how the Nazis and pro-Israel crowds seem to be so friendly at the moment? It’s almost like this has nothing to do with Israel.
We had Human Lego Man—a guy had a Lego Man costume and would just walk around waving at people.
We also have a roller blader with fairy wings who cruises up and down the Main Street, apparently flying. It was great when she had a baby, because she’d do the whole thing while pushing a pram.
It’s all the turning around. It made her cross-eyed.
We would. That’s a fairly normal thing to say.
The problem is that Trump tends to use phrases like this literally. Not saying it’s the case this time, but it’s certainly on brand for him. My initial thought was that he’s advocating for getting rid of missiles and replacing such systems with an actual dome. It’s just so hard to figure out what he means sometimes.
Yet it wasn’t always that way. Once upon a time that was the normal, everyday ‘correct’ word for that part of the body. It was only a few hundred years ago we decided that Greek and Latin words were the only proper way to discuss anatomy.
I was a minister of religion for seventeen years and absolutely loved working with kids. I volunteered in a couple of programs at my kid’s school, and their teacher told me I was in the wrong job. She had a good point—the parts of the job I most enjoyed either involved kids or teaching groups of people.
When it came time to change careers, teaching was the obvious choice. My child’s former teacher (who was now a principal) gave me a job as an SSO while I did my degree.
As a postscript, someone associated with one of the programs I’d volunteered in rang me when a teaching role opened up and I was made permanent within a year.
If you put that book in a kindergarten library, I can guarantee none of the kids will read it.
The only two reasons not to have it are 1) budget and 2) space. Use the room and money for books the kids will read.
