My understanding is that the largest percentage of energy production reliles on oil consumption.
P.J. O'Rourke said (of the communist-defeating 80s election in Nicaragua) "People don't stand in line for hours at the ass end of nowhere to vote for the status quo." So we'll see I guess.
Someone on X posted that it wasn't as bad as all that, that the case had merely been sent back down to a lower court for further modification.

It's not as bad as you say. The Supreme Court sent the case back to the District Court with instructions to formulate a more specific order and with attention to the timing of payments. While the judge is working on that, the government is not obliged to pay anything. When the judge issues a new order, the government will appeal and this time the appellate courts will have more grist for the judicial mill.
No no no, they gas you, kidnap you to a mysterious village, assign you a number and start asking you why you resigned.
And sobriety tests every afternoon.
Didn't the Little Red Hen ultimately go out of business?

“I think my tip average from Republicans—at least ones that I or a coworker has recognized—is close to 30 percent. With Dems, I’m surprised if it’s over 20,” he says. At events he’s worked that are hosted by Republicans, the guests ask for no-fuss drinks like bourbon, vodka-sodas, or wine. At the Democratic events, he’s seen many more substitutions and special requests."
Another Stephen King ending falls flatulently flat.
It's called "Mandate for Leadership" and it's a 922-page PDF you can look at right now.

From what I can tell, it's a lot of conservative notions, most considered uncontroversial by the general public. I'd love to know if there are any truly egregious contents, but I doubt it.
The theory is that they did this for Hillary in 2016 and look what happened, so...
Agreed; my recollection is that Podesta's email account was hacked ("Guccifer"?) by sending him a spoofed reset email, after which all of the contents of his account were leaked.
It's been my experience that DNA plays a huge role here, too.

That painting would fit right in on Rod Serling's "Night Gallery".
Yes, isn't the official line that chemtrails are just condensation? Weird that one could outlaw something like that successfully.

A couple of years ago, one of my friends saw a man staggering down the street, bleeding. She recognized him as someone who regularly slept outside in the neighborhood, and called 911. Paramedics and police arrived and began treating him, but members of a homeless advocacy group noticed and intervened. They told the man that he didn’t have to get into the ambulance, that he had the right to refuse treatment. So that’s what he did. The paramedics left; the activists left. The man sat on the sidewalk alone, still bleeding. A few months later, he died about a block away.
If you’re going to die on the street, San Francisco is not a bad place to do it. The fog keeps things temperate. There’s nowhere in the world with more beautiful views. City workers and volunteers bring you food and blankets, needles and tents. Doctors come to see how the fentanyl is progressing, and to make sure the rest of you is all right as you go.

Supposedly she also introduced a second amendment that diverted 100% of the funds to rebuild East Palestine, OH and Maui, HI.
Also bear in mind; this is what they say they're doing. They don't mention the various thumbs on the scales, of course.
I think they've admitted it was the government; cloud seeding is a pretty standard practice for the region, supposedly. I think they just didn't count on it working that well.
It looks OK, except for the completely-unbelievable part where she wouldn't notice an open flame inches from her face in the first scene. Also why wouldn't they just posit that the did hire Kubrick?
I'm really starting to think that complex carbohydrates - sugar, processed foods - are basically just poison.
I get the opposite, usually: high numbers at home and closer to "normal" at the Doc's. Occasionally I'll go days with "normal" numbers w/o medication, but when it's high it's scary high.
