Peonage is baaack!

Hey here’s a horrible idea. Let’s combine this with the debtors prisons we illegally run and recreate indentured servitude! As long as we call it something snazzy we can all pretend it’s not slavery!

Handcuffs yes. Magazine, no but obviously she had space so, eh? It saves a moment of strapping a bandolier on when you get the trunk gun out and most people probably don’t even notice it.

Yes, that’s the point. But if you divert the water then you’ve killed them. Bringing in different ones isn’t a value add, it’s just green washing marketing. You cannot introduce a human structure to manage water more efficiently than nature. The local ecosystem has spent thousands of years developing around that water source.

It’s thinking like yours that got us into the position of having to remove dams and concrete river channels.

It’s a blocking method. If 90% of the people who search a term are looking for the social platform it becomes much harder to find the book. Think of it like trying to find archival news articles about a perennial topic. You have to wade through all the recent shit and then there’s 2 hits from the time period you’re checking.

The house does not vote on judges. Only the Senate. Obama had a friendly Senate until Jan 2015. They could even have done it during the lame duck session. But in reality the Senate was widely forecasted to change control so she could have retired in the spring without controversy.

If you just accuse everyone of course you’re going to eventually be right.

Well fuck that guy. I love how he tries to compare voting to sexual abstinence too. He’s so high on his own supply he can’t stop from telling on himself.
