What is the boxed in portion?

Thought I found an infinite money glitch, but chips aren't included.

And one person in particular . . .

A dowsing rod but for foreigners instead of water.

Well, that's a list.

Uncapping the House?

But what's law that would potentially shift the Senate?
January 16, 2026 at 6:39 PM
I might be misunderstanding your question, but Johnson doesn't have a roll in certifying individual House elections. He has control over the timing of swearing in a new member during this session, but this session ends on (I think) 3 January 2027.

The implication of "without permission" is that Adams envisioned a set of circumstances in which the other guy's dad would be okay with is son sticking his fingers in his ass.

As a former teen, that's a higher approval rating than I expected.

Popehat's question wasn't about how to defeat Nazis. It was about the aftermath of victory over them.

Sure-- that's the question Popehat is initially posing, though. What *will* work (that can be done)? It didn't take an abrogation of the First Amendment post-WWII.

Seems like more of a social, rather than legal/governmental, campaign.

I used to be skeptical of people mourning lost celebrities. Then Leonard Nimoy died, and I watched Star Trek II-IV to bring him back.

Is there a chunk of data unavailability along the coast of New England, or do I have a misconception of what the coastline there should look like?

Thanks-- wasn't sure if it was a (pejorative?) label for a type of poster that I didn't know.

What does "publics" mean in the context of Sharon's post?

"Other prior service MoC on video aren’t targeted. Why?"

Kelly is retired and the others aren't, so Hegseth has no authority to misuse over them.

"The Commonwealth!" according to Google translate.

Via Spider-man theory: An ability to infect others and create copies of yourself. So, whereas a virus can turn a cell into a virus-producing factory, you can walk into, say, a stadium and every person in there will begin to turn into the copies of you. 1/
