The power button is stuck on, and it does an occasional unsettling arc sound and the image slightly distorts for a millisecond. I believe the latter is fairly common among old CRTs but I don't know much more than that.

Sounds like a degauss!

It's relatively common for CRT screens degauss as they turn on, so it makes some sense that it's still happening, even if the power button otherwise doesn't work - the degauss must be triggered by a different internal mechanism than the one controlling the power

If a man had sex with a woman, then proceeded to have copious amounts of sex with other men and never with a woman again, would you call him straight?

Sounds like it'd be relatively easy to get a loan or investor with that kind of ROI. Seven years is nothing if it's consistent and safe.

Is there a reason you'd have to go all-in, rather than starting with just a couple dozen panels first?

I understand the thought process and agree to a point - kids are definitely on too tight of leashes these days.

That said, everything I read in that article tells me that the author is a fucking horrible parent and I wouldn't want to ever be in 1000 feet of her demons.

Yes, your kids should have some freedom. No, they shouldn't actively be bothering everyone around them every moment they're out of the house. Teach them respect and kindness, too.

There have been TEN Saw movies? Damn.

Haven't paid enough attention to know how they list multiple 1/2 baths but pretty sure they don't add up like regular fractions...

They'd either list them separately or as a whole and then clarify. E.g. "two full- and two half-baths"or something like "four bathrooms - two full"

...isn't that still the case? They took it away, changed the color or something, and brought it back, didn't they?

My immediate reaction would be to go for a thinner crust and to use a little less sauce. I definitely wouldn't oil before sauce, but reducing the sauce could help if it's a pretty thin sauce.

Sure it is, if they can get 2/3 of the Senate to vote to impeach. And if they manage that, I think it's time to cut off some heads

90% of movies are for grown-ups. Literally any time I'm looking for a family movie, there's one, maybe two options in theaters

Why is doing literally nothing but adding cost a bad thing? 🤷‍♂️ they're even selling on the same platform, it makes the actual-priced product harder to find or is just a full-on scam, pretending they sell higher quality products than actuality.
