2/2) their super secret identities. They all shaved their heads and grew silly mustaches which naturally fooled every last person who could have recognized them. This was all a completely serious recounting of the book which explains a lot about why the movie got changed up. The book was written during the age of worrying about operation paperclip and newly developing ICBM technology and it lands... a little different when that stuff has long been the norm.

1/2) That's movie Drax. Book Drax is a legit 100% 3rd reich nazi that took the place of a dead brittish messenger at the end of the war and proceeded to fill his ICBM program with his nazi buddies from the war. The plan was for them to turn a test fire of the nuke into just firing the nuke at London and then escaping the city on a Russian submarine (because the russians were all over the idea of someone else nuking London). The Nazis naturally used the most natural of disguises to hide

That said, once that incredibly low bar gets cleared there isn't a whole lot of labor involved and all the idiots are mostly interchangeable. The great man myth is just an excuse for the people at the top to claim all the credit and all the rewards.

As low as the bar is, there is still some skill required to be a CEO. Just look at stuff like blockbuster for example. The rich people pick the wrong friend to put in the cushy money spot and the whole business goes belly up and tons of people lose their jobs.

Headline is correct. Any reasonable people will LOUDLY and potentially violently disagree with anyone saying that Hitler was good.

True, but not my point. The job searching could have been a part, but whatever the main reason was the rejection included the kids. She couldn't stand EVERYONE in her family and the father struggling with employment doesn't fill that entire void.

Maybe, but she also left the kids with him. This is more than just unhappy in the relationship, she abandoned the whole family.

Falling out of love doesn't explain her abandoning her kids. The relationship ending is whatever, but that is indefensibly garbage behavior.

There's a lot to hate about the ACA and yet the vast majority of the hate it gets is for the part where it at least helps the poor get a little bit of healthcare. It's downright infuriating.

Physical storage is also known to decay and fade over time. Entropy is the nature of the world. That said, OP is still hella wrong, because the correct answer to preservation of the book is to scan it without destroying it, which we can do and gives us multiple, redundant sources of archiving the material ensuring that we can make it last as long as possible.

Remember when a dude with multiple purple hearts from his service was made out to be an unpatriotic loser by a smear campaign run by nepo baby that got gifted a pilot spot in the air national guard during the Vietnam drafts? A loser that later lost his pilot status because he couldn't even bother to show up to work and yet somehow still stayed on the payroll and got an honorable discharge? Military pride has always been a costume to these ghouls.

And what's worse, they somehow managed to miss his gigantic head and hit the neck instead.

That's such an offensively horrible response that I would honestly walk away as equally disgusted as she was that I had ever shown interest in her.

To be fair, this whole war is worse than him being a pedophile in chief. The fact that he is a pedophile rapist should never be forgotten, but he's already ended a shit ton of people's lives and is threatening an act of terror that will triple down on that and leave lasting ecological scars on the area. An act that has the potential to escalate further once the nuclear genie has been let out of the bottle.

CEO part of the group of citizens making monstrous gains at everyone else's expense says there is nothing wrong with the economy. Provides sage advice about saving up for a home, a thing a CEO definitely had to struggle with.

The state is so completely gerrymandered that they don't even pretend to care about the state anymore. Texas has been billed as Republican Mecca for so long that the people who get elected to government are looking outward at the national stage. Look at Abbot, Paxton, and Cruz. When is the last time any of them advocated for Texas? For Texans? It doesn't happen, they're too busy dancing and throwing a fit over national politics and seeking attention for advancement.

Devils advocate here, but the issue here is the source of his search, not the fact that he looked up something. Medicine is a very, very, big field and no one knows everything. The way that's phrased would likely discourage people from looking up information to confirm their very fallible human memory, rather than just discouraging AI chatbots as the resource they confer with.

Counterpoint: It's a pretty well known fact that the Jungle was focused on the treatment of the workers and that people reacted by getting upset at the revelations at how the sausage was made. The person was only pointing out how the original comment mirrored that trend when the book released.

Art doesn't need to last you Philistine! If it thrives in the moment and then fades it is all the more beautiful for it! Besides the pink stuff scattered around the walls gives everything a nice 3d texture. If they moved the setup a few feet back the hallway could work great with that effect.

Who? Oh, the radio guy they discarded and immediately forgot after he built that fine public urinal.

The engineer that designed that didn't moonlight as a c-collar salesman did they?

#1 takes me back to when that coaster first opened and kid me was looking up at it while walking. I proceeded to walk face first into a stone trash can so hard we had to hit first aid for the bleeding. Good coaster.

It sounds like he's taking it from a mailbox out front. Have you looked at rigging a sensor on the box itself to trigger the recording when it opens?

That is literally stated as not evidence. She denied it. The evidence is: The hotel staff (plural) said so, the victim had new looking injuries, and there was destroyed property. Short of actually catching the man in the act I'm not sure how much more evidence you could get.

She's also at the same height as the top of the rope, so the floor should be designed to be safe to fall on from that height.

I agree. It's time we start making hard decisions about billionaires and make them into mythical creatures.

He did kill himself by following the directions he was given and seemed to know what was up enough to contact his wife before going to do the delivery if my memory serves. The man was just a professional to the end. Although the truck that got him took him by surprise anyways.
