I had hope that this would be a blip of an assault and a ceasefire would be brokered. Now, it feels almost certain that one of the most cursed regions in the world is going to be plunged into a civil war without a clear justification, and where everyone loses.
Climate change has been particularly unsettling this summer because it has felt like a constant reminder that it can’t be escaped. Even if you aren’t in Florida or Arizona or Greenland, even if you feel like you’re insulated up in Vermont or Canada – bam, 11 inches of rain in 24 hours.
Still need to vote. Cockroaches are resilient so it doesn’t do any good to write him off prematurely
I’m down! The more turn-based games the better. Final Fantasy tactics is one of the best games of all time
I’m not surprised at all. Even if I WANTED to move, we wouldn’t be able to afford to buy our house back on the open market. We got lucky, and now we’re stuck.
Building or buying up in this market feels like a dream, so we’re slowly improving the house we have to fit our needs.
My hill to die on: 343’s bungling of the MCC was one of the biggest daggers to Microsoft trying to catch up to Sony. Halo has never been the same since.
My wife got me a Fitbit, I think the Inspire 3, and it has more than enough functionality for me as a casual runner. I’m happy with it.
Fascinating. This is way more buttoned up and controlled than I thought it would be.
Great article. If Morocco’s claim is rejected, what’s stopping Algeria from trying to step into that power vacuum? Does Western Sahara have any sort of organized military that could resist against armed conflict over its resources?
I wouldn’t be surprised if we just saw the region become a capitalism pseudo-country, with US/China coming in to buy off the resources.
I like the concept of being able to talk openly about mens’ issues. That liberation name is unfortunate; in my opinion, it definitely sounds at least apologetic towards misogyny. What do we have to be liberated from?
I fear that we’re writing the epitaph too soon on this guy. If Trump does in fact get taken out of the race, don’t underestimate the Republican party’s ability to galvanize behind one candidate.
What are your options? For example, I would rather daily an '89 Corolla over a '01 Kia.
What is your budget for maintenance? There will be nuisance items go like seals and gaskets due to age, even if the engine runs strong.
What is the price? For a car that’s almost 35 years old, it better be low.
If you have a low budget, don’t have a crazy commute, and can get a couple years out of this car for a couple grand, it could be exceptionally wise decision compared to a $600/mo car payment.
Interesting. This feels like Howie Roseman-esque, signing someone to a big-time extension right on the cusp of stardom. Overpay now to bet on it being a steal in a few years.
Hilariously, this fine is probably not even large enough for them to spin off a shell company and declare bankruptcy on the debts. They’ll just shrug and move on. Toothless.
Yep. And it worked all the way up to the Stanford presidency. Even now he is “only” a tenured professor.
That’s the best question. Clarence Thomas shouldn’t have been able to openly flaunt his corruption for decades, but he has. Is this just going to be more firm hand-wringing by the Dems with no enforcement mechanism whatsoever? At that point, it would be better to just recognize the court as illegitimate in the public eye as opposed to giving the false sense that it is in anyway ethical.
Surprisingly melancholy comic.
They can’t even do bullshit PR correctly. You do the listening tour before the steady stream of unpopular decisions that go against the feedback you just collected.
-Password crackdown
-Removal of Basic Plan
-Aggressive advertising to up-package
-Focus on 1-3 years of low-budget ‘reality’ TV
Yikes. Netflix is hellbent on extracting maximum revenue possible, regardless of how shitty their product gets in the meantime.
Among the wealthy there will always be the search for the rare and exotic. I’m not surprised that this has become some kind of distorted 'destination"
