Mark of the Beast.

Not necessarily. All we really know is that Iran may just be willing to flatter him more.

As a trans gal married to just such a 6'3" guy...I have to say, I highly recommend.

Standing next to each other, he can rest his chin on the top of my head... :3 <3

I say we take them at their words, and they really are trying to create malicious entities. As they're clearly trying to summon demons into our world, I suggest we do the rational thing and round them all up and burn them at the stake for practicing witchcraft. You want to do devil shit? Fine, we'll burn you like the witches you are.

What's your ethnicity? Feels weird to ask someone that question. But in this case, it's highly relevant. :(

also sad that this is no longer exact high school teachers are crying

Eh, exact enough for most any practical purpose.

The US may be at its limit. Those interceptors aren't cheap. And even if Congress is willing to write a blank check, they can only be manufactured so quickly. Plus the US is also trying to supply Ukraine. And at the same time it needs to keep a reserve in case a conflict breaks out over Taiwan.

Here's what it comes down to IMO.

If we wanted a system that required minimum elected experience, we would simply write that requirement into state or federal constitutions. You could quite easily have language in the NYC charter that required certain minimum elected experience to be mayor. But we don't tend to put these rigid requirements in place, as "consent of the governed" is more important than some arbitrary level of experience. Chief executives are mostly figureheads; they have teams of people to handle the day-to-day. Their job is to define the overall direction and mission of the office. Having more experience can help with that, but it isn't a requirement.

You know, my town it is really lacking. AFAIK there isn't a single protection racket running in this place. I think I need to start one.

ICE is also hiring.

I tried making cement shoes for someone, but I didn't have any cement and made them out of wood instead. I hope that's OK.

Nah these aren't goons. If you want to be a proper goon, you need to dress for the job. You're not some high school kid who joined a street gang or some kid slinging rock on a street corner. You are a GOON. A proper henchman of a high-level figure in the criminal underworld. You need to have some respect for yourself. And that starts with dressing the part. We're talking a three piece suit at a minimum. Or a fedora, and the rest of the outfit that actually makes a fedora work.

"Goon" isn't just a job. It's a profession. Put away the t-shirt and shorts; you're embarrassing yourself. What kind of self-respecting goon doesn't wear a suit?
