Why can't it be both? Sheldon Adelson obviously thinks his contributions are making a difference -- he wouldn't be spending tens of millions of dollars otherwise.

good night sweet prince

Hm this decision didn’t go how I expected.

I find it funny that warren takes a DNA test that concludes there is “strong evidence” that she has a Native ancestor, and after the GOP spin machine gets done the message becomes 1/1024th native. What a world.

Life is involuntary tho

But why

GOOD point. But if CIA had a beef with me I’m pretty sure they’d just grab a toothbrush out of my garbage or something.

To me this response would be valid if he actually had been a member of the KKK rather than just wearing it as joke costume for Halloween or whatever. He made a bad joke 35 years ago, I don't think that means he should lose his career. Unless there's something I haven't heard, I don't really think a bad joke 35 years ago necessitates a "road to Damascus" moment.

Here’s the article about the twins results, if anyone cares: https://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/dna-ancestry-kits-twins-marketplace-1.4980976

There was a CBC article and on this and I dunno, I disagree with that conclusion. The results were fairly similar (though admittedly they weren’t identical). Most importantly I’d say there wasn’t really any contradictory results — neither sisters results necessarily pointed to a different background (like if only one sister had 20% native American DNA while the other twin had 20% African DNA). The differences were that, like one sister had 5% polish DNA and the other sister had a greater portion of Eastern European DNA. The CBC tried to make this out to be a scandal as if the DNA company was just throwing darts at a dart board. I’m like, excuse me isn’t Poland in Eastern Europe? I pretty much drew the opposite conclusion. The results were similar enough to qualify as an interesting and worthwhile feature, IMO.

But “what’s coming?” I’m not really planning on killing or raping anyone.

Ok that’s weird

Strip clubs are legal in Montreal but I don’t think they’re legal in Saskatchewan where I live

Is this really true? When I took a motorcycle safety course five or six years ago, out of the ~30 people in the course (almost all of whom were “millennials”) me and this West African dude were the only ones that weren’t planning on buying a Harley.

I wouldn't go as far as @sblfilms but I did originally say the story seems fishy and I'm sticking to that. You're right that this isn't CSI but at the same time we can look at the story and make some inferences. Edit: Personally, I don't think the "I'm kicking my own ass" explanation covers it, I think he did get assaulted but the background likely involves something that he, for some reason, doesn't want to admit to. Or I could be completely wrong and it did go down as he said it, but I personally find it unlikely.

I guess I should be going to strip clubs then. I don't think they're legal here though on second thought.

God damn I'd buy whatever she's selling.

This story seems fishy.

Speaking of not reading the article. Yes, this seems to be what the author was suggesting.

https://thinkprogress.org/supreme-court-may-kill-roe-v-this-week-a014778b1db9/ What do you guys think? Is the situation as dire as this article is making it out to be?

No. No one thinks that. And if she had any understanding of intersectionality, she’d know that. But she dismissed intersectionality already in the first paragraph as jargon “used to signal wokeness.” Thats the beginning of the article and it just goes on like that. She’s arguing against a caricature.

Congratulations, you found a blog article written by someone just as confused as you are.

She was a career prosecutor, basically the tip of the spear of the shitty justice system.

I’m sure Canadian mining companies have an interest in deposing Maduro.

So. Can Bernie secure those states?
