I mean, if this is what you believe, you can still invest in bonds in a 401k or brokerage account. Even if I believed this about stocks crashing, I still wouldn’t put any $ in an annuity.

Also, predicting the stock market and making huge decisions based on that tends to not go well.

You know who probably lobbies for this hot, unconstitutional garbage behind closed doors? Not the religious right.

Lawyers.

HB71 should be called The Shithole State Louisiana Attorney Employment Act, because this is going to need a ton of lawyers.

Lawyers to sue about its unconstitutionality.

Lawyers to defend its constitutionality.

Lawyers that represent Islam, Pastafarianism, Hinduism, etc. that want all aboard this state-promotion-of-religion train.

Stuffed with their own tentacles, lol. I also sliced them into smaller pieces which definitely increased the bugleification factor.

Similar, yeah. More modern construction and side-by-side seating instead of tandem. But otherwise, similar size and weight.

I was just thinking “rules for thee…” the other day when I almost got sideswiped by a F-250 with a big no-step-on-snek sticker on the tailgate. Was just sitting still in the middle lane at a light and this guy nearly hits me zipping by in the right turn lane. He, of course, doesn’t stop on red and just immediately turns right.

Couldn’t care less that his 10,000 lbs, lifted, moron dozor was sticking a foot and a half out of his lane.

Anywhoo, I know that’s a stupid, odd story. But that’s just an example of how these assholes live their lives. Everything, even the smallest and most common sense rules, like staying in your lane, are for suckers, not them.

I dig the shorter stages. Fresher legs and potentially more people who think they have a chance near the end. Stage 15 looks like a must watch.

Ha, why was this downvoted? Sketchy website “reports” proprietary Chinese research firm’s accomplishment by rehashing the firm’s press release about an unbelievable claim with no other evidence. This got more red flags than the beach before a hurricane.

At best, this is something they actually did approximate in some kind of lab setting that might be years and years away from being some kind of marketable product.

The (translated) press release even has a stench all on its own:

It is expected to fundamentally solve the battery life and safety anxiety of traditional lithium-ion batteries.

Really good. Melt in your mouth texture and a nice mild sauce with hint of vinegar and the sea. No sandy bits or anything.

Tampering with a juror in the first degree is a class A misdemeanor.

Class A misdemeanors carry penalties of up to 364 days in jail
