Almost like a Banana Republic.

Problem being that you then wrongfully conclude the blanket could never contribute to warming.

Like I said, he is capable of nuance, but only to twist and turn into "proving" himself right.
-
Because his version of being Jewish is fine. He can see nuance when it comes to him or what he believes in. He can't see nuance in anything else. The only thing he knows is that he is always right and everybody else is wrong.

Yup, the Netherlands is a bit of a mess. I have a fully vaccinated aunt who just tested positive. She is a police officer, hard to stay away from public. An elderly uncle who tested negative after an exposure and a set of parents who are hunkering down once again. Their pre-existing conditions will make an infection a likely death sentence. The Netherlands seems to have a high vaccination rate, showing that social distancing and masking remain important!

Or just believe those who are good at math and analysis.

Here in Canada property taxes are set by two factors, the assessed value of the property and the mill rate. Multiplying those two gets you to the property taxes payable. Hence, it is possible for property taxes to go up, without the mill rate increasing. In those cases the net worth of the payor has gone up. (also why many municipalities allow for the deferral of property taxes until sale of asset.

They were in a cargo van and the cargo absolutely crushed the cabin. If they had not been ejected they would 100% be dead.

I have two family members who are alive because they did not wear a seat belt. I still wear a seat belt...every time.

Oh, libertarians are only against the federal government but are fine with state and municipal government?
-
Society is made up of people. The same people who do not take personal responsibility. The same reason the premise was false. But you might be right that the premise might be very libertarian, as in it sounds nice, but it doesn't work that way.
-
It calls for a light hand BECAUSE people will take personal responsibility. That premise is inherently false, since we see time and time again that people do not take personal responsibility at all, for anything.
-
Right, liberatians don't want to participate in a government, but founding one could be considered libertarian......
-
Unless you can turn it into a meme, that shit means nothing!
-
Why? Cause it confirmed your bias, so you had no interest in checking if it was actually true before spreading it around?
-
And you will find many indigenous who find it offensive and you will find some who do not. In that case, as a non-indigenous person it is probably best to not use the word and not be publicly proclaiming it isn't offensive because you have read somewhere that in historical context it is all fine.
-
Excellent. Wish Republicans would distance themselves from those who post videos of killing a colleague.
-
Calling you gay while you smoke a fag is also perfectly innocent...in historical origin and using a different language/dialect. Yet If I were to actually call you gay in today's environment you would complain about being personally attacked to the mods.
-
The opposite of testing isn't confirming. Confirming is one of the potential outcomes of testing.
-
Oh, so libertarians are just people who complain but don't actually want to do anything. You might be on to something there.
-
Yup, but they are getting killed more by white-nose syndrome. When you start advocating for the federal government to seal of old mines and caves and mandate decontamination procedures for those who do gain access, then I'll start believing you actually care about the bats.
-
For tree bats. Not for bats, there is certainly a well-documented threat to bats outside of structures.
-
There is a reason there isn't a single libertarian government.

That ruling means nothing her next ruling is much more important. My guess is she will deny the original request, but issue the stay pending appeal. -
You mean there is nuance and direct comparisons are difficult? Didn't think you had it in you. Oops, guess you don't.
