  1. You jabronis are making a mistake thinking the bills have to passed together.
  2. Even easier: Pump the room full of nitrogen gas. It will displace the oxygen and they will eventually pass out peacefully and without pain, and then die. EDIT: Your body doesn't sense a lack of oxygen, it senses the presence of carbon dioxide, which is why asphyxiation can be traumatic, from what I understand. Removing the oxygen from the space, but keeping nitrogen there will just cause the person to lose consciousness and succumb to lack of oxygen.
  3. I recently learned of (but not read) this book by a Holocaust survivor, on how to deal with shitty situations. If you are struggling on a personal level, this might be a good read. Man's Search for Meaning - Wikipedia EN.WIKIPEDIA.ORG
  4. Hi GOP Congress 2017-2020. "If I don't get what I want, I won't pass anything"
  5. Taxing unrealized gains is dumb. A better idea would be to tax loans over a certain threshold, as that would alleviate a lot of the concern you leftists have with billionaires avoiding income and capital gains taxes.
  6. Baldwin is a limousine liberal who probably played a large role in the poor working conditions for the production crew, and was completely fine with bringing in scabs to shoot the film. Even if he is never criminally charged, I would think the family of the victim has a strong civil case against him - not only did he fire the gun that killed the cinematographer, but he was also a producer for the movie.
  7. Yeah this should certainly be ruled as negligent homicide. If not on the part of Baldwin, someone on the set.
  8. This reminds me of the time that Microsoft created a self evolving/learning AI, and within hours of it being "born" it became a holocaust denying white supremist. Microsoft’s neo-Nazi sexbot was a great lesson for makers of AI assistants WWW.TECHNOLOGYREVIEW.COM Yandex’s head of machine intelligence says Microsoft’s Tay showed how important it is to fix AI problems fast. Maybe that's just the natural order of things! Whether it is an AI or a group of otherwise politically ambivalent fleshbots, all roads lead to chudville.
  9. The details are still fuzzy to me, but I could conceivably see Alec being charged with some sort of crime here, like negligent manslaughter.
  10. In some European countries, tear gas pistols are sold that look and feel like real firearms that fire real bullets, but the barrel has obstructions in it that would prevent a bullet from travelling down it, and instead fire out a concentrated stream of tear gas. Maybe those should be used on movie sets instead?
  11. Dog the Bounty Hunter looks like the type of person who showers maybe once a week and definitely doesn't wear deodorant.
  12. It's super dumb that we base current year benefits on what was earned last year. Just allow everyone to use the benefit, and if they made too much, then they get the appropriate back charge when they do their taxes.
  13. We wanted to see our daughter's antibody levels, after she got COVID in June. 152 units/ml. I guess that's pretty high? So that's good. The paperwork said that <0.8 would indicate no prior infection and/or not vaccinated. So the fact that she is 151 units above that threshold makes me feel pretty confident she'll be protected for quite awhile.
  14. I've been told (and read) that the reason why Boeing sucks ass is because they went from a company led by engineers, to being a company led by MBAs.
  15. ...So the government will still pay for the administration of the doses to the uninsured? Yes, it's dumb. And inefficient. And causes confusion.
  16. Regardless if the vaccine is free to the end user, it makes the entire process super inefficient to have multiple payers - the government had already committed to buying enough doses for every eligible American, so to insert insurance carriers into the mix is just dumb.
  17. I was asked for my insurance card when I got mine done at the university here in Las Vegas.
  18. I think Michael Cohen also confirmed that the Don is into peepee play - he paid some strippers in Las Vegas to piss on each other from what I remember.
