Hopping on one high heel seems like it'd be absurdly difficult.

Most of the Shining documentary 'Room 237' was kinda dumb, but I found the theory about Kubrick tying the hotel's haunting to the genocide of Native Americans pretty compelling. And it cast the elevator blood scene in a horrifying new light.

Someone with a better humor maker than I could do something with the fact that 47 is the amount of dollars she saved.

I always imagined this could be fertile ground for clever, subtle sci-fi. Stuff like "someone figures out that the reproducibility crisis is because some universal constant changed a little out from under us, and now everyone's freaking out about what it could mean and where it leads."

My fate might not be sealed, not least because I wasn't formally trained: I wandered my way into this after decades of a wildly eclectic mix of jobs.

Oh I'm definitely thinking about it, being a late-mid career engineer. But also thinking about the older family friend, a retired engineer who spends his days using generative AI to study the book of Revelation.

And committed the US to an Article 5-like mutual defense pact with them.

Hang on, let's think about this for one sec...
So if we scrub the 10/18 No Kings protest, they'll reopen government, gavel back into session and vote to release the Epstein files? It's not up to me, but I'd take that deal.

Third Amendment reference!
Moreover, two of the Constitution's first ten Amendments articulate safeguards against the military: the Second Amendment-with its assurance that well-regulated militias would be prepared and armed to fight for the security of the states and the Third Amendment, with its prohibition on quartering of soldiers in times of peace.

This is bullshit, and I say this as someone whose former neighbor used to fire his pellet gun at the squirrels in his and my yards, damaging my property and nearly killing my dog. So I'm not particularly sympathetic to idiots hunting rodents in small yards.

Get that raise promise in writing and in hard dollar figures, not a percentage: because x% of $0.00 = $0.00

We laugh, but I could easily imagine it. They'll point to how Pepe* has been used. They'll suggest protesters are hiding weapons inside the costumes, whatever; anything to make them seem nefarious.

*They're not big on ideological coherence

I've been hearing a lot of criticism of Biden for not being able to make this same deal a year ago, and it's making me feel like I'm taking crazy pills. It was never a sure thing that Trump could make this deal, but it WAS a pretty sure thing that Netanyahu would never seriously work with Biden.

Let's maybe not encourage them to use the Bill of Rights as a to-done list?

You seem to be blurring 3rd and 4th amendments...? Because "quartering" means soldiers are literally living under your roof, eating your food, making you do their laundry, etc.
