Yeah, the people voting on these bills own real estate. They aren't gonna make their own life hard.

No? Not if you actually want the job.

Think about it this way, if you're interviewing someone for a job, it's obvious they are there for the money.

If the most creative thing they can think of to answer that question is "Money" then their critical thinking skills are pretty much zero, and further they are a liability because who knows what either dumb stuff they will say, possibly to the wrong person.

Oh honey, Trump is a president.

And no, not a fan, but when the Democrats try running a legitimately senile old man until the fourth quarter, and then shoo-in one of their candidates with the worst approval, it's not a shock he won.

Maybe next election they will actually listen to who we want in the primaries. I mean I doubt it, but it's a dream.

I was listening to a podcast the other day and they had some top Army PR people on, and they made it sound like this isn't the only example.

The sliver of hope is that they were openly talking bad about the specific contractors that operate like this, and we're finding new companies to work with that don't require such stupid procedures.

Who exactly is "my king"?

Well yeah, there's plenty of valid reasons to own guns.

The point I'm making is that firearm owners are overwhelmingly against government oppression, and well Russia is... Well that's kind of Russia's thing.

Ah yes, ol' faithful. Everyone I don't agree with is a fascist!

Look, if you don't want to have guns, don't. It's pretty easy.

The only one, what? That makes no sense.

Lemmy is fucking wild. It's literally actual communists calling everyone else communists... Haha

The video I saw, looked like a double engine failure after takeoff. I'm just basing that on the RAT (or whatever Boeing calls it) being out.

Curious to see what that FDR has recorded.

 

About 5 years ago, when I started getting more serious about lawn care I paid ~$75 for a jar of tenacity. My yard is smaller so I've made it about halfway through the jar, and in hind sight the signs were there, it's dead Jim...

First year, one application at 4 oz./acre took care of my weeds. By about the third year, the first application just didn't quite kill off the weeds but the second application would finish them off.

Finally this spring, I notice I've got a large portion of my yard taken over by creeping bentgrass. So I hit it with a 4 oz./acre and planned on doing 2 oz/acre every two weeks after to stall the bentgrass. But after the first application, the weeds didn't even bleach, and they were still fine after the 2nd application.

I decided to replace my tenacity and not only has the price almost halved, but one application at 2 oz./acre and the entire yard has frosted tips, the bentgrass is stalled and the other weeds have vanished.

TL;DR: Tenacity will start losing its potency around 3 years, if yours doesn't seem to be working, consider replacing it.

Now if anybody knows what happens if you get close to max amount per year, please let me know. I'm curious, because now I have no idea how much active ingredient actually made it onto the ground.

 

First pour tonight, and I gotta say it's pretty good. I'm no professional, but if you like Lagavulin's other offerings you will probably like this.

It's sweet, like really sweet, but I think the peat and smoke counteract it well.

On the nose, the rum barrel didn't really stand out to me, it smells like Lagavulin, but just a little different.

The taste is immediately sweeter than standard 16, but still tastes familiar. Milder on peat, and big on vanilla.

And the finish I found good, the rum fades away, and the peat lingers.

I paid $89 for it and I'd say it was a good buy, I wouldn't pay more though.
