Dropped a Tom Swifty on my wife… the other day.

“They want me to check in at the hospital…”

“She said admittedly.”

I got “the look”.

I think he means in terms of time. In order to make it fully consistent, you’d have to have some kind of index and go through line by line making sure everything is saying the same thing.

Oh, wait…

It’s 5 days before the election, if you aren’t on the ballot by now, you aren’t going to be.

The usual… taking the left for granted because “what are you gonna do? Vote Republican?” isn’t a good look.

I’d sit outside with a table, candy, and a sign that says “You HAVE to say trick or treat, change my mind!”

That was the challenge Christopher noted in the forward to the Silmarillion. J.R.R. had started working it in 1917, and kept making changes right up until his death in 1973.

So he had 56 years worth of papers, and notes, lots of it hand written, to try to kind of reconcile into a single work.

“A complete consistency (either within the compass of the Silmarillion itself or between The Silmarillion and other published writings of my father’s) is not to be looked for, and could only be achieved, if at all, at heavy and needless cost.”

  The Silmarillian Forward, 1977

Quite a lot of the misinformation out of PA stems from a willful ignorance of how all this stuff works.

For example… the voter registration drives turning in invalid registrations:

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/voter-registration-probes-launched-crucial-keystone-state-counties-amid-claims-potential-fraud

“District attorneys and election officials in both Lancaster County and York County are looking into potential election-related fraud after authorities received large batches of voter registration materials from a “third-party organization.” Both York and Lancaster counties have more registered Republican voters than Democrats, according to state data, with York Republicans holding a 63% majority in the area and Lancaster Republicans at a 61% majority.”

When you do a voter registration drive, you are legally obligated to submit all registrations, valid or not. The only entity with the legal authority to reject registrations as valid is the State Secretary of State office.

This is because, back in the day, parties would do registration drives and just shit-can any registration for opposing parties.

Now, even if some dumbass fills out a registration for “Mickey Mouse” or “Superman”, it STILL has to be submitted to the Secretary of State for rejection.

That’s not “voter fraud”.

Steve Kornacki, the MSNBC data guy, is pretty freaking stellar.

The statement isn’t about “A” monkey. It’s about an infinite amount of monkeys.

Brazil - Made in 1985, feels like post 9/11.

First, you need to know, you did NOTHING wrong. Your family is the problem, NOT YOU.

Second, when you say you are “financially-dependent on my mother at the moment.” it’s quite likely the other way around. If you’re as disabled as you say, you should be getting disability benefits, paid to YOU, not them. Likely they were collecting before you turned 18, but at 21 those benefits are YOURS, not theirs.

Third, don’t sweat the birth certificate or SSN. Those are just paper and there’s a process to replace them, a process you can’t start if they harm you.

GTFO. Now. While you can. Take your benefits with you, cut them off and let them hang.

Term limits are defined by the Constitution and require an Amendment. See the 22nd:

We are currently too divided to pass any Amendment right now.

Tom Gauld is a joy!
