Even wounded, I’m willing to believe the pelican just wanted to see if it could.

They love to size things up to see if they’ll fit in their mouth lol.

Cool, its objectively worse for people and society in general though.

Not sure how a kid of a stockbroker and a marketing exec is at all “working class”

Uh, no? “An eye for an eye.” is old school ancient.

It was however a limiting statement. When Hammurabi made “an eye for an eye” into law, it meant you couldn’t just go kill a man’s entire family over losing an eye and call it justified.

Wounded Knee (the second one not the original one) was 1973.

Kent State in '70. The Bonus Army (homeless WWI vets) in the 30s. Blair Mountain (coal miners on strike) and the Tulsa Race Massacre in '21.

Only a half dozen times in the last 100 years or so.

So, considering the stranglehold the two party system has on American politics…what was the right answer?

Vote for a third party candidate, that is systemically prevented from attaining a position?

Yeah the Democratic Party is tragically obsessed with pandering to the right and holding their “moderate” position; but damage control is damage control.

Boot cut means a slightly flared leg (think a very very subtle bell bottom) so that they fit over cowboy or work boots easier.

Relaxed fit means it’s made a little bigger in the seat and thighs compared to the same size in a regular fit. The lines/silhouette aren’t as clean/nice, but it’s comfier; which is why it’s called relaxed fit.

Bought a copy of The MilePost for a road trip up the Alcan last year.

Very specific, relevant information along with maps in a paper format is ideal when you’re driving through remote areas with little to no cell signal.
