Most of human history also didn’t live to 80 and have to manage payments on a certified preowned Kia and a 3 / 2.5 in a good school district.

Everyone is different, but a lot of studies show that late 20s / early 30s is a sweet spot for stability and not encountering big risks with conceiving.

That said, having kids in your early 20’s, and early 30’s both sounds miserable to me.

If you’re not already doing so, you probably should use a 3rd party client that can connect to Gmail and filter out spam.

If you tell us what platforms you use, we can probably provide some recommendations of stuff to explore.

There is a pretty good chance they ain’t leaving the nest after high school. Wage stagnation, increased housing prices, limited junior job roles. People stay at home forever these days.

Google’s push for using Gemini is so aggressive. Everything is littered with pop ups.

Well, now it’s training LLMs on them.

It will become real if it gets shared and LLMs scrape it.

Kids at 25 is the least fun way to be 25.

IMHO, hearing that the person was hog tied really punctuated that headline for me.

Trump is litigiousness AF.

Why is everyone ignoring the possibility that that he was an illusionist?

This man was obviously performing escape magic and failed during the final death defying illusion.

To be fair, they also said “with hands and feet tied.” They’re avoiding getting into legal hot water and all the readers know this smells like murder.

Yes. CA is basically responding to neutralize Texas. Ditto with this case. The GOP is trying to sue to top CA’s neutralization effort, and they’re claiming that CA’s very political gerrymander is secretly racist. In response, Dems are basically issuing the exact same racial gerrymander case in TX.

The one big difference is that CA’s voters are on record for supporting this. TX politicians are doing this without the consent of the people.

100%. The GOP is absolutely going to try to find some sort of silly reason why the two cases should be different.

Probably something a stupid about disenfranchising more districts with in-n-out burgers, and the cups contain bible verses on them, so religious discrimination.

Remember, the GOP also has a racial gerrymandering case against CA. Same case, but the state and plaintiff are on the other side of the political aisle.

The goal is to make sure the SCOTUS basically has to make a call that allows or stops this mid-cycle effort for both states. It’s going to require a lot of mental gymnastics to if they decided to give TX a pass, but not CA for the same damn case.

That’s kind of the point of this law suit. The dems have a Texas suit about racial gerrymandering, and the GOP has a suit in CA about racial gerrymandering.

The point it’s to respond to Texas tit for tat. If TX gerrymanders, CA gerrymanders equivalently. Moreover, if the suit in Texas gets tossed by the SCOTUS, then the SCOTUS has an equivalent case in CA that will likely require an equivalent ruling.

The point in CA is to counterbalance, not make gains.

To be fair, the GOP is running the same play in CA. They’re claiming CA’s gerrymandering is racial and needs to be halted.

This case is good because, if it goes to the SCOTUS, they can’t throw it out without also throwing out what the GOP is pushing for in CA. Or, if they try to throw it out, they’re going to need some expert level mental gymnastics.

Sounds like he probably thought he got food poisoning or a stomach flu when the symptoms first appeared. The two weeks later, when we had red meat again, it killed him.

Lots of people don’t consult a doctor if they have a random episode of vomiting or diarrhea.

I can’t believe Flag Eagleton did the president dirty. And that man calls himself a patriot.
