Huh. I remember some laws in my state about knuckledusters and switchblades changing around 2017. Do you think courts would apply the logic from Caetano v Massachusetts to some of the oft-prohibited items, like 'clubs' and such?

They didn't come for just a particular style of gun when they had the opportunity to come for guns. Look at New Orleans during Katrina, and you'll be looking at the image that every person is picturing when they think of the government and its pursuit of guns.

That cropping has to be deliberate.

Uh, just to clarify, GOTV is gay-owned tv? Gothic onesies tv? Government objectives tv? grasping ostentatiously tv?

You're right. It's not just legal reasons. There are some neat studies showing that if two people under the age of 5 are raised in the same household together, feelings of sexual attraction generally don't develop later when you're sexually maturing. So the porn somewhat follows reality in the scenario of step-siblings being more likely to develop sexual attraction.

Um... do you happen to know a fella selling any of those shoulder fired objects of value? I'm asking for a friend.

Bingo. The only reason to smoke kush/spice/k2/whatever-other-dumb-name-the-marketing-comes-up-with is because you want brain damage. Smoke the real stuff, and you can avoid the permanent effects.

That's the big one with Gen Z that I know of. I can think of several that I know that fell for it while 16-22, but none that fell prey to the typical ones about your SSN or buying gift cards.

Holes sounds like a paradise compared to this place, really. No feces in the living quarters, everyone had a bed, and the only people who were really physically punished were the staff. I'm trying to think of the worst thing in Holes, and it was probably the implication of being left to die in the sun? Or maybe shot. I think there was a point where one of the staff members started carrying a gun, right?

Yep. That's why I brought up my comment. I thought for years that discussing your salary was a really bad thing, because so many people talk about how you'll get fired for it. Imagine my surprise when I actually read through those NLRB posters in the break room...

This is why everyone needs to talk about their salary. Shatter that idiotic notion about pay rate discussions being bad, because it only benefits the assholes at the top sucking every penny they can.
