  1. More development means more runoff. Stronger storms means more rain. Floodplains will only get larger, over time.
  2. Doesn’t the FBI agree with that dude’s boss, and say alt-right white nationalists are the nation’s biggest domestic threat? Head in the sand is not the posture a bank needs from their security people.
  3. Nvm, Jaime already asked.
  4. Disarming the populace is part of the dictator’s playbook. Thought the resident 2nd Amendment Rs knew that, but psychos aren’t necessarily smart people.
  5. “Pepsi-cola hits the spot. Twelve full ounces, and that’s a lot!” That’s the beginning of an advertising jingle my mother would quote when I asked her why she would drink Pepsi, which I would point out sucked. Apparently, Coke was only ten ounces at the time, and the company refused to adjust, until Pepsi had made significant inroads into Coke’s market share. http://www.oldmagazinearticles.com/article-summary/pepsi-cola-commercial-1940
  6. Live video feeds of women’s holding cells? FFS, what a scumbag.
  7. Of course the gqp would take advantage of an old person with dementia.
  8. Supply hasn’t kept up with demand. One reason is the labor shortage. Another is companies that build fewer houses per acreage seem to outbid companies that build more houses, for available land. Plus, the other reasons being discussed. But, these reasons are important. https://www.npr.org/2021/12/18/1063205596/housing-cash-offer-home-buyer-seller
  9. Closest I come to making sense of the term, as used, is a biscuit is a “side piece.”
  10. What’s a biscuit?
  11. Filters may not sanitize, but they fucking clean; ie less particulate, dirt, etc.
  12. Slaughter Lane’s Fuddruckers is right next door to one of the few Luby’s. Echo Row.
  13. More likely Mr Clark will be put on the shelf, which is one reason journalism has declined so precipitously.
  14. Danny Westneat, from Seattle, who Gil recommended, has it covered pretty well. He should go national: ”The real story of this era isn’t so much about this one flawed, narcissistic figure, as it is the spinelessness of the sycophants along the way.”
  15. Good. May their bigotry be ever the source of dissatisfaction.
