“In court, free speech is free speech, and that’s the only position the government should have.”
In practice this isnt though- every right has to have some limit to prevent abuse. For free speech, there are 2: the fire in a crowded theater scenario, and assault. For instance in my state, assault includes specific threats of violence. (By specific i mean the kkk would unfortunately be free to say ‘we should kill all black people,’ but 'were going tp burn down t

Way Back in highschool, we convinced one of our friends who was selling drugs to pony up $300 for a used B52 speaker system, so we could throw raves (and he could sell more drugs.) Hes long since moved on, but we still have that b52 unit, and still use it for events.
20 years ago, a couple hours before one such event, the system was dead. I pulled off the cover, and found a scorched up resistor. I took a penny, soldered one of the clipped off leads to the edge of it, then with a multimeter, slowly dragged across the surface, until I found a point with the correct resistance value. I soldered the other lead on at that point, soldered the penny into the board, and its still working to this day!

I dont feel like they are. Traveling France and Italy a couple years back, I found myself not finishing meals much more regularly that I do in the states, Even though I was eating a bit more because I was walking 5+ miles a day.
Maybe i was in part over ordering due to language, or menu expectations. Maybe some of thw places I was in were touristy and over doing it to match ‘american portions’
But for instance, i got breakfast that was ‘oefs en cocotte de compagne’ at a café a couple blocks from the louvre, far enough to not be in the tourist trap surrounding area anymore.
It was massive- 4 shired eggs with a generous amount of mushrooms and gruyere, served with 4 pieces of toast. And I confirmed with the waiter that that was not a shared portion…

Huh, so presumably, they send out groups of names by an area’s demographics. I could see them ending up with some very strange seeming names in some areas, either by smaller towns being grouped in with nearby cities, or due to supply chain changes, and stock for one area getting rerouted or mixed up.
Like there might be plenty of Sikhs in NYC, but go upstate and its possible someone’s never heard the name, or met a Sikh.

- Comment on When kids come trick-or-treating, what happens if I choose trick? 2 weeks ago:
Posted the full story above, but one time back in the late 90s, we hit a house in retaliation for them being dicks to our younger siblings. In our town it was fair game not to participate, especially since its a seasonal town, so more than half the houses are empty by October anyway.
But these guys opened the door, said they were out of candy, but that the kids costumes were shitty so they didnt deserve any anyway, and made my friends sister cry mocking the fairy costume she’d put together herself. Pretty sure they were drunk.
So we came back a couple hours later when the lights were out, covered their 2nd story wood shingles in eggs to maximize the difficulty of cleaning up, then bailed on out way to the party.

I egged 1 house out of retaliation back in the day. My friends and I were like 14- 15at the time, and were taking out our siblings, then going tp 2 parties, an earlier chaperoned house party, then a bonfire in the woods, after we dropped them back off.
One house were complete dicks to the younger kids, made my friend’s little sister cry making fun of her costume. So we all went home as planned, but grabbed our eggs, and stashed them nearby the first party, along with out supplies for the second party. When we left the chaperoned party at like 11, we swung back by the offending house on our bikes, pelted their house with ~3 dozen eggs, aiming for the wood shingles and up high, knowing it would be a bitch to clean, then rode off to our bonfire party splitting up for the first half of the ride in case they called the cops.

My dad apparently once told my Nana that he’d just written his second $25k check to his IRA that year.
My mom was quick to correct him- Ira was the name of the bookkeeper. The money was in mixed retirement a counts, maxing both iras and 401ks for then that year.
