WTF is a Lutheran school doing on a reservation to begin with? Why would any Native American even want to send their kids to it?

I hate that they decided to have Morpheus hold up a battery instead of a processor because some empty suit thought audiences were too stupid to get it.
The context is that he’s doing a stand-up comedy routine. Although “it’s funny because it’s true” is a thing, he’s not necessarily endorsing every single punchline as his closely-held genuine belief.
NO, NO2 (or collectively, NOx) - air pollutants
N2O - anaesthetic
Just in case anyone was wondering about the specific minutiae this ruling requires non-subject-matter-expert judges to take on.
Her background is as a “tough on crime” (read: shitty on civil rights) prosecuting attorney.
You’d think the Feds would step in to fix that sort of Establishment Clause violation, no matter how powerful the cultists are at the NYC (or Clearwater, or Salt Lake City, or…) local government level, but I guess not.
Sounds like a job for antitrust law.
That said: I ended up waiting like 3 years for my diagnosis (and I had to chase those bastards every single time for a response),
That sounds this close ->||<- to being some Catch 22 nonsense where they use your success in managing to follow up as an excuse to claim you’re not ADHD.
At least they’re clean dishes on the drying rack and not dirty ones in the sink!
That’s not even all the issues related to the location itself. The parcel that the City of Atlanta owns and is using for Cop City is adjacent to [what used to be] Intrenchment Creek Park, a Dekalb County park. By law, once land is a park, it’s supposed to remain so in perpetuity. Nevertheless, Dekalb County decided to make a “land swap” deal with a nearby movie studio to give them that land in exchange for some (less valuable) mostly-unbuildable flood plain on the other side of Bouldercrest Road. Consequences of that debacle include:
It set a very dangerous precedent; no greenspace in Dekalb County (or possibly the entire State of Georgia) can be considered as safely protected as it used to be.
The park was largely destroyed, bulldozed by people hired by the studio (compare 2017 to the latest imagery)
One of the protestors occupying that park was murdered by police. That’s the first time in the United States that an environmental activist has been killed by police, by the way.
It’s small potatoes compared to the above, but it also gratuitously cut off access to the South River Trail from Bouldercrest Road even though the connection barely touches the disputed site (compare 2014 to the latest imagery), which as a cyclist I’m particularly salty about.
I’m kinda local and know some stuff about the situation (being vague to try not to completely doxx myself); AMA!
One shitty aspect of Cop City that the article barely mentions (which is fair, given that it’s aimed at a wider audience) is the abuse associated with the choice of location itself. It is being built on the site of the old Atlanta Prison Farm, which, much like the Chattahoochee Brick Company on the other side of town, is historically significant as a site of post-civil-war reenslavement of black people (watch this video on “neoslavery” to understand how that worked). Like the Chattahoochee Brick Company site, it deserves to be memorialized and turned into an asset for the Black community it previously helped oppress, but putting Cop City there perpetuates that institutional racism instead.
…says the guy that thinks there’s going to be a brokered convention that picks somebody other than Biden.
LOL, no they are not! If there’s one thing I know about Evangalion, it’s that.
Russia’s high tech side of their military industrial complex is incredibly weak compared to the old USSR days
They’ve been screwed since like the '60s because of the gap in microprocessor tech.
TIL Odysseys are inferior minivans.
The Aerostar I had two decades ago and the Sedona I have now both fit sheet goods just fine.
Also, I don’t think you’ve been able to buy a regular cab/8’ bed pickup easily since about the '90s.
…we don’t let them run indiscriminately across the road. They’re taught to walk to a a crosswalk to cross the road.
Really? You’re actually going to defend this classist, corporate-astroturfing bullshit, the theft of the public street away from the People for the exclusive benefit of irresponsible drivers?
Basic requirement is being able to haul sheet material (4’ wide) with no fuss.
I hate to say it, but what you actually want is a minivan.
The regular swimming events will be done in a pool. The issues are the weird ones:
