Wait wait wait…you have no idea how a squid would react if you tickled it. What if it freaked out and bit your nose off? First you need to cautiously do a test tickle

Oh my…

Where are you from?

You can ask “what if?” all you want, but that doesn’t make your imagined alternative real. The news media calls states when they’re confident in the outcome. Show me somewhere they got it wrong

News orgs call states based on a combination of polls and vote counts. States that poll significantly in one direction or the other are typically called early in that direction because the outcome is not in doubt

And this is based on what

Straight-line Democrat it is, then!

One iPhone has about 8 billion transistors in it, so makes sense

Men have a ton of choices for formal wear, my dude…

I’d be interested to culture petri dishes off my hand after I use a new paper towel to turn off the faucet vs grabbing the wet handle with my entire hand and shutting it off and then drying off my hand…

Paper towels folded over on themselves absolutely create a barrier between my hand and the door handle. I’m not talking about flushable paper or toilet seat covers

I wash my hands before I piss because my dick is the cleanest surface in that bathroom. Touch nothing afterward without a paper towel barrier

Uhh…what are we talking about again?

The question was about early voting though? Voting by mail is only a small piece of the early voting total in most states

Early voting in the US as we know it today, meaning going to a polling place to cast your vote in-person prior to election day, started in Texas in 1987 and spread to other states from there. Every state has its own specific rules regarding how long the early voting period lasts, and other aspects like how long polling places are open each day may even be left up to local governments.

Where I’m at in Texas, we have some early voting locations that stay open until 10pm, even on weekends. I’ve never had to wait more than 20 minutes to vote (and usually less) since I started voting in the 2000 election. We have 12 days to vote before election day, and even a website with real-time updates on wait times at each polling place across the county.

The drawback is there are fewer voting sites open during early voting, so people with transportation barriers will have to expend effort to get there, but you can do so on whatever day works for your schedule. On election day itself, way more polling sites are open, so there’s likely to be a site within walking distance or a short drive in denser areas, but lines are much longer than during the early voting period, and many people have to work because it’s a Tuesday and not a holiday

Also, Mississippi, Alabama, and New Hampshire have no early voting and pretty much require everyone in the entire state to vote on election day.

After the end of the Cold War, there’s a clear trend in US spending where it ratchets down every year during Democratic administrations and up again during Republican administrations. The only exceptions are the first two years of the Obama admin, after he inherited Bush’s wars, and 2023, after Russia invaded Ukraine

Lmao that’s your take away

Nothing about this is entrapment…this cryptocurrency created by the FBI isn’t any different from others. People are breaking the law in the same way in the crypto market every day, these people just got caught.

NexFundAI, as per information on the website, was marketed as redefining the “intersection between finance and artificial intelligence” and that its aim was to “create a cryptocurrency token that not only serves as a secure store of value but also acts as a catalyst for positive change in the world of AI.”

Dude…hook, line, and sinker. FBI knows their target audience lol

I think the biggest problem is that it’s still only a concept with no realistic plan for implementation. Waymo has been on the roads where I live for years troubleshooting their self-driving concept. They’ve gotten better, but still cause problems regularly, like running red lights, stopping unpredictably, and getting stuck and not being able to figure out how to proceed. And Waymo seems significantly ahead of Tesla with this concept

What you quoted says the property was assessed at 100x its original value. The total taxes owed is a different number than the assessed value.

In Texas we have a variety of taxing entities that may overlap a property, city, county, school district, community college district, hospital district, municipal utility districts, etc. Each adopt different tax rates and have defined percentages of valuations they’re allowed to tax. Point being, taxes owed do not scale linearly with assessed property valuations.
