Amazon Prime is going to start showing a 'limited' amount of ads now. Might have to binge 'The Expanse' before that happens. I'm still slowly going through it. I'm on Season 4 now. I'll binge it over NYE. Unless that's when the ads start. Oh well, the mute button on my remote works.

I got that email yesterday. I think they are adding ads to their original Prime shows, not movies you rent or buy.
I'm seriously considering dumping Prime. It's basically the same as cable now. The only good show they have is The Grand Tour and Clarkson's Farm. Maybe that James May travel show. Other than that, it's mostly shite.

This is the crap I can't stand. They admit they are going to annoy you with ads but for a small fee (that keeps going up) you can avoid the annoyance. It's extortion. The mafia would be proud.
I hate advertising. It's the worst thing ever invented. It should be outlawed entirely.

It's the hyaenas that were are revelation to me, because we're all led to believe hyaenas are dirty smelly stupid silly weird monsters.
And they're not. Granted, you don't want to just go up to a random hyaena, but those who work with them testify to their intelligence, and the very clear structure to their packs, with everyone knowing their place in it.
Kevin says he sometimes has problems because one or another will question his place in the pack, and he always uses whatever he's learned to make sure to reinforce for them that he's not to be trifled with (because if they did he'd be dead in a second).

Yep. I, too, received that email. I barely watch television anymore, mostly just shows that I've purchased on Prime because I'm too lazy to pop in the DVD version.
The good news is that Amazon's Rings of Power Season 2 will become even MORE unwatchable--if such a thing is possible--with the addition of ads.

Generally, my exposure to German women was in the clubs, and they at least seemed to be trying to smell nice.
But you'd get these German workers on the post (though they always seemed to be on holiday), and you'd get maybe 10 feet from them when you'd start to smell it.
It's a unique stench, like nothing my young self had never encountered before, and I went to an all-boys high school.

No, it is a Studebaker Lark, not a Buick Skylark. 170 cubic inch inline six. Now, the car was built with a flathead six, but this one had the flathead replaced with an overhead-valve six, early in its life. Quite a bit peppier than the flattie, but they were prone to cracked heads.

It's will, frankly. It's one of the reasons I constantly butt heads with certain people here.
Some folks, still, spout constantly that "rules" are in place that matter. They're the same people that find comfort in Chesterton. Also the same folks that scoff at the idea of vigilantism. And, sometimes, like to scoff at "gun nuts".
They get louder, the more shit goes off the rails. Because they insist that we all pretend, right along with them, that everything is OK. Everything is fine.
They are the tyranny of the store shelves. As long as the shelves are not completely empty ? They'll continue to bitch that we all go along with the lie.

Philadelphia recorded its 400th homicide of the year last week.
Police say a 58-year-old man was the 400th murder victim.
That same evening, a man was gunned down in a triple shooting.
Who’s in charge there?
Democrats.

Wiki has a short article on this topic, whatever the last Federal law implementing the amendment (as required by the amendment).
It was last used over a hundred years ago to bar one from office...
But first he had to be elected. And then previously CONVICTED of an actual crime.
One could quite well argue that those barring Trump from any ballot are actually the 'insurrectionists' - trying to overthrow the Federal Government.

Japan makes sure that all their rice is grown in Japan. It is more expensive and of course the plan is set up for some level of corruption, but their experience is that being starved of rice will destroy them, no matter how powerful they are.
there are two sides to this argument, although it is cheaper to offshore production, it also destroys the other industries that are involved with that production, and has hollowed out our economy.
the second thing is that we are now at the mercy of foreign manufactures which are controlled by people who are currently bought and paid for, but may prove to harder to keep when and if outbid by competitors and/or changing political winds
thirdly, I am not as concerned about foreign lands' children near as much as our own. It is as valid a WAG to say that when child labor is less valuable, then child tracking may be less attractive as a business model.
