Trumps Baby Hands posted:Scalia's demise was crazy. I don't think there's ever been a more obvious murder that everyone just short of shrugged at because dude was such a huge prick it wasn't an obvious murder, dude was old and had tons of issues. Ed Balls himself investigated it thoroughly. from an WP story posted:Scalia suffered from coronary artery disease, obesity, diabetes and other ailments, according to a letter from his Supreme Court doctor.

Look, it's not surprising that that grand piano fell on him, but then to get run over by a steamroller and get pushed into a swimming pool by an escaped tiger...it raises the eyebrows. I mean, this was all after he survived the plane crash and the swarm of killer bees, don't forget. Oh wait, this is the fat old guy who had a heart attack? Sorry, got mixed up with someone else.

quote:While some of his choices are made on a whim, he also likes to call dozens of people about potential hires, telling them what others said and asking them if they agree or disagree — and why. Last week, he asked TV anchors who visited the Oval Office for advice on filling the national security adviser position that opened up after Michael Flynn was ousted, according to two sources close to the administration. During the transition, he would walk the tables of Mar-a-Lago and ask guests whom he should pick for different jobs. He will call longtime business associates in New York, including Democrats and people who have never been involved in politics, and ask their advice. http://www.politico.com/story/2017/02/donald-trump-apprentice-hiring-235281 Why not?

I'd think Republicans would be more strategic with their constitution loving instead of being like "lol unreasonable searches an seizure, that's gay"

Because Star Trek technobabble is throaway dialogue for covering up lazy plotting and the Tears in the Rain speech uses allusion to infer a full life experience that Roy had that's not valued by humans despite his ability to reflect and appreciate it in the same way they do.

wizard on a water slide posted:but, uh, the prison system still uses coercive means to get its (disproportionately black) inmates to work for a fraction of their labor's market value specifically, work release programs are largely a colossal scam perpetrated by the state to milk inmates for 'restitution' fees for years after they've ostensibly served their sentence yep the perspective on the level of badness of the debtor prison system was, however, needs to be remembered. these people could not even go home to their families and live with them while they tried to get back on their feet, and it was unregulated and privatized to a way that give current for-profit prison corporations wet dreams.
