No no, you can’t call it that because Kavanaugh hates that they’re associated with him.

So do it as often as possible and remind people of it.

Might be a nurse, too. I have met some nurses who very clearly weren’t taught to do things like solve problems or think critically.

All of those are MORE expensive, at scale. If you can just hand 1500 kids a $200 Chromebook that fulfills ALL those functions, that’s $300k, vs 1500 e-ink readers at $40 a pop, 1500 digital typewriters @ $100 apiece, etc. Hell, that scientific calculator ALONE might be $200+ in some markets because Texas Instruments practically has the market cornered (to the point that I had to go to the administration of my school district to show them that the Casio I had was functionally identical).

So many donations and funds for schools are earmarked, you can only spend them in specific ways. If you spend them in ways that don’t align with the earmark, it’s incredibly easy for the donors or the state to claw them back. So that $40mil your local suburban school district spent on a new football stadium? That was likely earmarked SPECIFICALLY for football, they can’t really just swish the money to better textbooks, or whatever. Same with tech funding - you get $250k to upgrade your school district with Chromebooks or whatever, you MUST buy within what the funding packet tells you you can buy, and you can’t really do anything else with it.

That doesn’t even get into the cartelization of textbooks and school software. There’s so few real options that it’s incredibly easy for these companies to collude without really looking like it’s collusion.

They’ve already been doing that second bit. Remember how they’ve been driving vehicles of people they’ve stolen away? It wouldn’t surprise me to learn that they’ve been stealing personal possessions and identities.

The SAM episode was a little meh, personally, but I like that they’re dealing with the shorter season format and still doing episodes based around each character.

IIRC a few African groups have legends of people trying to tame zebras as long term mounts or livestock, and these legends rarely end well for the attempter.

So someone else also pointed out grand jury members in TX are appointed positions of “respectable” members of society.

Sadly, this just sounds like the Good Old Boy Network doing exactly what it’s supposed to do.

Please, we all know that great Ra carries it on his boat through the Sea of Reeds and must battle Apep to be able to raise the sun in the heavens the next morning.

2000 in each, so it sounds like the total sample size is about 10k.

A lot of PDs and federal forces get taught by the IDF, who are notorious for targeting genitalia and eyes.

Nah, Trump has made noise about wanting one since Obama got one. That’s literally it, he’s just jealous.

I too would like my public execution be at an unknown (to me) time and place. Like Burgess Meredith in The Obsolete Man.

Consider that a lot of these kids are either poor or nonwhite or both, as well.

It sure would create a serious issue, possibly even civil war in Canada. The Trump admin (because I do not believe Trump himself is at the wheel anymore) is trying to do to Canada what Russia was trying to do to Ukraine via Donbas - sow enough “well these people WANT to be American, but Canada won’t let them” to sound like a casus belli to our population in the US.

Actually, marketing is a great way to make it LOOK like things are working. Your comment is exactly what a shareholder might hear in response to that same question.

He’s the one kid at your birthday party who’s upset they’re not getting attention too.

And it requires you to STAY in that power and wealth. These sorts of treatments require a lot of regular upkeep and maintenance injections and monitoring.

I can’t see them conducting it so close to a city, unless it’s meant to be a show of force or some bullshit.

Hell yeah we need the USS Admiral Kuznetsov.
