Agree with the body shaming, plenty of shit drivers across the spectrum. Don’t care so much about cars being fun as a means to justify their prevalence. But to acknowledge the counter argument of the culture we seek to criticize does have its merits in effective debate.
One of the many reasons not to shop at Home Depot. Fuck that place.
I’m excited to see Ranked Choice Voting gaining more traction with elected representatives. Just getting the idea out into public conversation I think bodes well.
Sounds like the medical examiners were lazy, just relying on police reports to shirk their responsibility to investigate the cause of death. Either that or just assholes with a boner for the cops. Unless they are getting kickbacks.
Mixed thoughts on the outcome of this lawsuit. "Envigo's parent company, Inotiv, has agreed to pay the record eight-figure settlement. It has also agreed to not breed dogs for the next five years." Like, how about a permanent ban? Five years, are you kidding me? Better than nothing, but cummon.
I'm glad that a portion of the money fined will go towards the activists actually rehabilitating/rehoming these beagles. "The agreement calls for the company to pay $22m to the US government, as well as pay approximately $1.1m to the Virginia Animal Fighting Task Force and approximately $1.9m to the Humane Society of the United States for their help rescuing the beagles."

I Learned recently that the “.” After “S” in Harry S Truman is actually unnecessary because his middle name is quite literally “S”. Although trying to find a source to back this claim, seems most sources include, which is confounding. This link discusses it though. https://www.history.com/topics/us-presidents/harry-truman
