Oh sorry I didn't mean to sound like it was making fun of you at all! It's just v frustrating for me at least that this is exactly where a legislature should be stepping up to deal with a completely new kind of thing with new pros and cons
Yeah so many of these debates should be solved not by tortured analogy to past technology, but by legislation from a functional Congress sob
Elizabeth Kolbert is very good (OBVIOUSLY) but they should have let my celebrity crush--who also works for the New Yorker as I have surely mentioned--write this one!
Or maybe he's a habitual criminal in the mouse world and is just repeatedly getting arrested by mouse police and sentenced by a mouse judge to two months in mouse prison downstate! Two months may not seem long but it's pretty long for a mouse. Well great now I feel bad for him.
Sometimes there is a mouse in my kitchen. But then I set out some traps and he gets the hint and goes away for a few months. I guess we have a sort of an understanding.

oh like qui tam cases?
I'll, uh, think about the cookies idea
I've dealt a bit with the lawfirm for that transgender Chili's employee and, well, I wasn't impressed sorry to say. I support trans people being employed and take no pleasure in reporting this :(
Aw man! We've lost a lot of vegan places this year
when was the War of 1812, again? can someone reminbd me

I got the complaint if you want it
insulin is the example they use in Econ 101 for something with a vertical demand curve, but fertilizer is probably pretty close to vertical
yeah that's a v good point!
federal gas tax is 18.4c/gal. if you want to think about how much a tax holiday is actually going to be noticed
But then the lesser Madagascar hedgehog tenrec got me thinking: what if *I* could roll up into a spiky ball to defend myself from foes?
so then I suppose the idea is to get a lot of out-of-district contributions and then use the money to buy stuff for herself
Some more good evidence that many people seek elected office because they are unqualified for regular employment
"Well, 1992 wasn't that long ago" said Arin while consciously not doing the math
Obviously this is Netanyahu's goal, just to get as much of this done as he can get, at Washington's expense

I think a lot of stuff he says makes sense if you assume it's what the last person he talked to said. I wonder if he's consciously manipulating the markets, or if others around him have figured out how to get him to say things that will.
okay so with the caveat that I have intentionally been not paying attention to this race who the f is "Phil Andrew"
& I think it was Nicole Cliffe who talked about how horse training is really different, horses are either content to be in the safe place or want to get to the safe place. there's no curiosity when there's no need to search for food, so you have to think differently about how to relate
I think if it's justifiable at all it's because it's so hard to imagine that someone so stupid could become president twice despite the opposition of the only two political parties both times (to varying degrees but definitely at least some). I personally struggle to explain it!
there's this certain level of psychology and behavior that we have that's just so recognizably also present in other mammal predators and omnivores
I think about when Xi went to Mar-a-Lago and his spies were like "figure out what's so amazing about this guy that he upended the American political system" and Xi came back with "dunno what to tell you, he's just a big idiot"
it's free ice though
