Could an average rowboat support her without capsizing?
Coworker found him on the sex offender registry for messages with some woman trying to arrange a sexual meetup with her daughter. Not even a statutory teenager situation, an actual child. Apparently he had some connections with law enforcement which kept him out of jail.
Everyone already hated him for general creepiness and being terrible at his job, so there was a degree of vindication in confirming how horrible of a person he was. Still super fucked up.
Warmhinder does sound like an actual name though
Stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled; and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in a fricassee, or a ragout.
And that’s to say nothing of the skin, which will make admirable gloves for ladies, and summer boots for fine gentlemen.

I just bought a house, and having someone to coordinate all the paperwork thoroughly and promptly was definitely valuable to me.
So they can have a little bacon, as a treat?
Restaurants that switch away from tips frequently switch back. There was a big push about 10 years ago, and most have closed or switched back.
Customers, as a whole, just see menu prices go up and go someplace else; the customers who actually understand the trade-off are too few for that model to work most of the time. Additionally, the best staff jump ship to restaurants where they can maintain their income.
Fine dining is really the only place you can get away with it regularly. The employers didn’t really have a choice if they want to stay open. The system is what it is, every customer who doesn’t tip is giving themselves a discount at the expense of the staff which is a reasonable thing to be upset about. The only way to change the system is through regulatory legislation.
Latin has more rules, but they’re more utilitarian than fancy. Latin rules are there to make sure you understand exactly what is being said. French rules are there to make everything elegant and confusing, like high fashion.
I just have some high school Latin from long ago, but if you parse “fancy” as “ornamental at the expense of utility”, then I think it’s a fair description.
They are in fact 3 things
“Objection!”
“Why?”
“Because it’s devastating to my campaign”
The way capitalist free markets are supposed to self-regulate is by customers refusing to buy goods and services which are too expensive. But when the alternative to buying those goods and services is dying in the street, understandably people can’t reasonably refuse.
That seems like a very roundabout way to say that in the present in the US, critical thinking leads you to not vote third party.
This is correct. Once you get to the top you can use the stem as a little handle too.
4, at minimum
How does this differ from the plan 10-15 years ago?
It doesn’t, we just haven’t been doing it. Progressives show up at mid terms in lower proportions than conservatives, we have to show up for every election, even the boring local ones. Governors and Senators become Presidents. If we want a progressive President, we need progressive Governors and Senators to nominate.
Should we not be seeing returns if lesser evil voting did anything other than ratchet us over to the right?
Perhaps I wasn’t clear: voting lesser evil is necessary for change but it is not sufficient. Again, the return on lesser evil voting is delaying the greater evil so that good can get into position. If we’re not using that delay to vote progressive into lower offices, then yes voting lesser evil accomplishes little else.
Should a politician have to do anything to earn the votes that put them into office?
This isn’t a productive perspective. Lots of things should happen. You shouldn’t have to look both ways before crossing at a crosswalk when you have the light; but if you follow “should”, you’ll have the satisfaction of being in the right when you get hit by a car.
The point of your vote isn’t to reward candidates for having the right policies, the point of your vote is to protect your interests. You vote lesser evil for the same reason you lock your doors, to mitigate a worse outcome.
Don’t forget the Submariner and Namor
