I'm around your same age and have always been told immigrants generally good.

That's not a generational view you have there. I'm willing to bet that immigrant is a synonym for 'not white' by whoever in your past has said this.

Ugh, why'd they have to get NDT to do that anyway.

He just seeps with smug assholery.

Solution is stop using delivery services.

I think it's that we miss those three camera stage plays.

Atleast I do.

Those long seasons let us have silly, off the wall and yes, sometimes plain bad episodes.

But I'll take them for the extra world building, character development and slower pacing that we get in return.

I don't want or need television to be movie quality. I'm fine taking a hit in production quality if it gets us back some of those lost elements.

Apparently the plan was to disband the local department and merge it into the department of a neighboring area, then split the cost in an effort to lower the overall operating costs of police services in the area.

The other city they were going to do this with declined the deal and so this town had to keep their local force in tact.

Upon hearing that the city they worked for was trying to eliminate their jobs, a bunch quit.

We have quite a while yet. We spend about 200 billion servicing the debt right now and have around 4.8 trillion in revenue.

The warning line is having a debt equal to your GDP. The US has a GDP of around 28 trillion but a debt of 34 trillion. So we are past that warning line, but by itself that doesn't mean anything.

For other countries it would signal to banks and other countries that it might be a bad idea to loan to them, but the US has a kind of special status in the global economy and this hasn't slowed down loaning so far.

Part of me does want this.

But I also know how much actors have gone on record saying how much the working conditions absolutely suck in order to have that level of output.

So while I'd love it I don't want it if it can't be done with decent working conditions.

No joke, 50th anniversary of the first F16 flight is coming up very soon.

Granted the guts of that plane have been upgraded over and over, but still.

Eventually the interest in the debt will grow too large to service. The government will have to print more and more money leading to hyperinflation. The entire global economy will be impacted as faith in the dollar collapses. The global economy slows and eventually switches to trading in the Yuan. The US loses a ton of it's soft power globally.

And then Brigitte was released and I ran around curb stomping chumps while screaming mace to the face.

I miss those days before they murdered my girl.

My Plex is ready.

I own the push mower version.

That was true of the first gen batteries. They lasted a year and then stopped holding a charge.

There are second gen batteries that seem to be holding up better, I'll be going into my third year with them soon so we'll see.
