Nearly four hours later, it just stopped. 2947 calls in 3h45m.
I am suddenly seeing a massive uptick in spam calls. I am currently receiving about 15 per minute. Started about 20 minutes ago. Anybody else seeing anything like this?
You actually did. ๐ You โccโdโ me on your initial post linking to this article.

De-dick-ation.
You can make a broach, you can make a hat, you can make a pterodactyl!
And busy checking on the price of eggs.
Goes with the beating of your heart echoing the beating of the drums!
The Insurrection Act (1807) empowers the President to call up the National Guard in cases of civil disorder, rebellion or insurrection. HW Bush used it in the LA Riots in 1992.
The Governor need not consent.
But this isnโt what the Guard signed up for. How many will actually follow through?
Didnโt see you mention Ballast Key anywhere, sorry
Nah, 1453 was in there, with the fall of the Byzantine Empire *and* the end of the Hundred Years Warโฆ
Buckley v. Valeo is the real problem. Thatโs the 1976 precedent that established that โmoney == free speechโ. Take that away and CUโs impact is hugely diminished.
Itโs already a fake location though. The actual southernmost point in Key West is on the Naval Air Station, about a half mile WSW of the buoy.
And there are further Keys, WSW of Key West, that are further south. Ballast Key is where you should go for the furthest South in the Continental US.
Theyโre better because if they were in power they wouldnโt be nominating those people or writing those bills.
Itโs not my intention to give them a pass. Primary them! Get better Dems in there! But when all is said and done, a (D) is better than an (R). Even if the (D) is spineless (hopefully not!)
Republicans made those nominations. Republicans wrote those bills. So yeah, not-Republican is better.
Am I pleased with the Dems you mention? Hell no, and they should be primaried!
But in the general when thereโs and R and thereโs a D? Hell yes, vote for the D.
Second this. Iโve always found TTS to be a bit heavy and clunky and too focused with the full physical simulationโฆ but BGA is great. And over a thousand games on there, some of which are actually good.
Dominion!
Ok, it doesnโt exactly have a board, so I donโt know if it qualifies as a board game, but the online port is excellent.

We also let bygones be bygones with Nixon, Reagan, and W, and the inescapable lesson is you can do horrible things with no consequences because the Dems will always let bygones be bygones.
When one party chases their extremes and the other party chases the ever-shifting โmiddleโ, the extremists win.
In part because of the Overton window, but also because a lot of โcentristsโ just want politicians who stand for something. Chasing the middle smells like a lack of principles to them.
Since WWII (and before, really) this countryโs science programs have been like Notre Dame: an immense imposing edifice to awe the world. And now weโre just tearing it down.
In four years we wonโt be able to unpause. Weโll have to start this Notre Dame over again, from scratch.
The main construction of Notre Dame de Paris took over 100 years, from 1163-1270. Now imagine Louis VIII coming to power in 1223 and deciding to tear it all down. That could probably have been done in a few years.
Would the next king have been able to just go back to building it?
Please donโt say it Dan Whiteโฆ
(For anyone not aware, thereโs a region of France, about 60 miles north of Paris, called Picardy. Somebody from there is called a Picard.)
OMG I remember this. My jaw hit the floor, I couldnโt believe it!!
Hey, it worked for Zimbabwe and Argentina and pre-War Germany!
Hang on, Iโm getting reports that it did not, in fact, work for any of these places.
Well, itโs impeachable but the Senate would never convict.
Technically, he only said he wouldnโt have gotten himself in that situation. So โI wouldnโt have sheltered Jewish people in my atticโ is an equally valid interpretation here.
Is this just Chrome or is it any chromium browser (e.g. Edge, Brave, Vivaldi, Opera)?
Disappointing thereโs no Saints gangโฆ so you could say youโd rather laugh with the Sinners than cry with the Saintsโฆ the Sinners are much more funโฆ
