I'm not sure. Realizing I had no idea how much wealth the truly wealthy possess has been a reoccurring theme from the past few years. I think I'd rather see some hard limitations on who can own what.
Going by her own example, they don't seem to be very effective at preventing unchristlike behavior.
Dunno if it changes anything, but user224 posted this link elsewhere in this discussion, and it says the pipe was 30cm (almost a foot) in diameter -- I'm no expert, but the photos in this and OP's article seem to show an opening about that size to me. I only mention it because that seemed uncommonly large to me.
You can say that again. Growing up in Florida, I've been in a lot of swimming pools and water parks, and I have never seen anything like what is shown in the video attached to this article. That opening is huge. user224's link says the pipe is 30cm (almost a foot) in diameter. Even in giant public pools I've been in, I can't recall seeing an opening or fixture that size. That, coupled with a lack of any cover on it, seems so obviously dangerous. God, what an awful way to go.
Yeah, this revelation didn't get so much as a raised eyebrow from me.
The agreement will allow Disney to build a fifth theme park—possibly a water park—in the state on the condition the monolith donates just 100 of its expansive 24,000 acres to infrastructure projects controlled by the state. Disney will also need to hire Florida-based construction companies for “at least half” of its projects, as well as make a generous $10 million dollar donation to affordable housing in the area.
That last bit is particularly interesting, wonder how that will work.
Yeesh. I read the updated report linked in this article and still didn't see any mention of where the officer went after he ran over this woman. I'm wondering why it was up to bystanders to try and lift this truck off of her, instead of, ya know, the police officer moving his vehicle just a few more inches one way or the other. Not that it would have saved her, I guess. :/
Thanks for posting this. I've lived in Florida my whole life, and voted blue-no-matter-who in every election since I was eligible to vote, as do all my friends and family. I try to help others within my sphere of influence to make good political choices, too, and those conversations can be hard. My area has been particularly red for as long as I can remember, and that has only gotten more true in recent years. It often sucks to live here but I am stuck for the foreseeable future, and so I am putting forth the effort to change what I am able.
As such, I have always found it a bit discouraging that so many seem to think that Florida is some hive-mind phenomenon, wherein every eligible person votes against their own best interests in perfect unison. I mean, a lot of them do, obviously -- but the lack of empathy for the rest of us, that's the weird part to me.
The last few years have really reinforced my feeling that a lot of so-called Christians don't actually read the Bible, but just assume it backs up all of their other backwards beliefs.
Watching the video clip I caught myself pining for the days when Trump rants were at least coherent enough to resemble human speech.
Like, of course everything he said is an easily disproven lie -- some things never change -- but at least the words came together to form sentences. I'm extra not looking forward to the daily news cycle in the coming months.
Guess the novelty kinda wore off after the hundred-millionth time.
Graphic designer here, my guess would be a Photoshop job. I'm mostly going by the visual qualities of the edge of the thumb, comparing where it appears over the graphic, versus where it appears over the rest of the hand. There's a slight but discernible difference in the sharpness, that usually indicates masking.
I did a reverse image search with TinEye, and found a "Colgate Whitening Dogs" version of the same original photo, which supports the Photoshop theory (at least in one of the two images): https://i.imgur.com/IB6rn9E.jpeg . That makes me think the original photo was of a pack of hotdogs where the label was blank / white -- That'd let you distort the fake label graphic to roughly match the size and placement of where the real label art would go, and preserve the shadows, highlights and reflections of the packaging using layer styles.
EDIT: Also, here's the Insta account for the originator of both of these images, Adam Padilla / adam.the.creator: https://www.instagram.com/adam.the.creator
Just another Monday for me by now... Have had to put so many once-beloved channels out to pasture. I really love YouTube for what it was (and still mostly is), making entertainment content something more personal than traditional TV... but it's changing. And change isn't inherently bad.
I will say that I'm having a harder time nowadays finding new content on YT that measures up. Just started a trial for Curiosity Stream today, and there are other platforms, too.
Huh, I just assumed it was from rolling in feces
True, but meat-based hot dogs are typically fully cooked and so only need to be warmed, too... Grilling is just kind of a fun activity for me, and it adds a little snap and smoky flavor that you can't get by boiling them. That said, grilled veggie dogs were a little different, but still pretty good!
They're from "Morning Star Farms," though I was careful to only say that they taste right, haha -- They don't plump up when cooked, and are prone to scorching in spots on the grill. But the flavor is spot on!
Same here. I tried out blackbean burgers, plant-based hot dogs, tofu and almond milk in my last couple of grocery runs, just to see what's up. Turns out I really like tofu as a substitute for ground beef, and the veggie dogs tasted just like all beef franks to me. And none of these things were any more expensive than meat, so that's also a big plus.
You'll still go to jail, but the president says he personally feels like you don't deserve to.
assuming they could get it to stay in place to begin with.
Perhaps the mouthpiece would serve as a "flared base," as it were.
No rea$on at all, except for that one little rea$on that we alway$ $eem to keep coming back to...
