That’s good because I think you were looking for state secession. Succession is the action or process of inheriting a title, office, property, etc.

In my experience, if they take your card away to run it at a restaurant than POS only has one meaning because it’s probably some old Aloha piece of shit system their using.

I think autocorrect got you, unless there was a secret bellybutton supply we don’t know about?

I’m curious where in the states you were? I live in the Twin Cities area of Minnesota and it’s tap to pay all over. To the point where I’m surprised to find a place now where I can’t tap to pay.

Some exceptions exist, like restaurants that are using old POS systems but we see a lot more of the table side devices being used, some with tap to pay.

Sunny D is the juice of an orange

And a good amount of grapefruit juice too. That’s what makes it so bad for people who take immunosuppressants.

I feel like this depends a lot on age and life situation until eventually you get old enough and then you’re just buying things as you want/need them.

Really if they’re so dedicated to the death penalty, why not just use a firing squad?

South Carolina has entered the chat

Minnesota implemented a similar law in 2019 and it’s really made no difference. You see idiots on their phones all the time not paying attention.

Laws like this will always be toothless if they rely on you to be physically stopped by an officer and if it’s a fixed fee penalty.

We know who is far more likely to be stopped by police and a fixed fine system penalizes the poorest the most. If cameras were used and fines were assessed based on percentage of income OR it was a points system that could lead to revocation of license I think they’d be more effective.

We are all controlled.

No, we’re not. I don’t know what kind of nonsense this is supposed to be.

Sometimes a child cannot survive, and must be killed lest they kill the mother. Things like that happen. That place wasn’t restraining themselves to those edge situations. Sometimes people were cutting up babies just for being inconvenient.

Yeah? Anything to support that? More importantly, if a woman gets pregnant and you are neither the woman in question, nor the doctor who is providing her care then what business is it of yours at all? Explain why you (or any other person outside of the woman and her care provider) should have any say in whether a woman decides to terminate a pregnancy or not. You can object to it, you can dislike it, but you absolutely do not have the right to remove her right to bodily autonomy and choice.

You need not worry. I don’t vote for Republicans. You don’t need to overcompensate to get extra points for your partisan games…

I don’t care about politics, you do. You brought it up. You can vote for whomever you like, I’m just sick of people like you who seem to believe you have some moral authority to control how a woman chooses to manage her own body because of how you feel about it.

Tl;dr

The president named Todd Blanche, the deputy attorney general, as the acting librarian. But staff members refused access to two department officials he chose for key roles at Congress’s main research arm.

I believe human life to be valuable

No, you don’t. You don’t value a woman’s life as much as a baby’s when she needs a late term abortion due to medical issues.

I know they think they are doing what is right.

Which means you think it’s wrong. The difference between you and them is you eliminate the choice a woman has.

Imagine watching people feed their babies into a grinder and not even being able to convince them that it isn’t a great thing to do.

People don’t feed their babies into grinders but you know that.

Whether you truly believe the things you say or are simply a troll is moot. Only one side of the abortion argument rests in removing bodily autonomy from women and controlling them.

Firing employees who organize a public campaign to discredit the CEO is generally the correct thing to do.

I’ll just leave this here:

Are you outside the US?

I had to double check because I’d totally watch a second season but Firefly only got one 14 episode season. When it aired in the US though, they only aired 11 episodes and they aired out of original intended order. Maybe you’re somewhere they split the release of season one in two parts?

Did you read the book? I vaguely remember both and I feel like when the show veered from the book is when it started to go off the rails.

I’m not sure if this is a joke but that’s all there was of that show, no?

The dad mom made me think of the Mother’s Day episode of Modern Family with Cam and Mitch where Cam was getting the celebration on Mother’s Day.

How does this fit the community?

Interviews for this survey were conducted between May 1 through May 5, 2025, with adults aged 18 and over representing the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Panel members were randomly drawn from AmeriSpeak, and 1,175 completed the survey—1,101 via the web and 74 by telephone.

Panel members were invited by email or by phone from an NORC telephone interviewer. Interviews were conducted in both English and Spanish, depending on respondent preference. Respondents were offered a small monetary incentive for completing the survey.

The final stage completion rate is 13.7 percent, the weighted household panel response rate is 26.1 percent, and the weighted household panel retention rate is 77.8 percent, for a cumulative response rate of 2.8 percent.

The overall margin of sampling error is +/- 4.0 percentage points at the 95 percent confidence level, including the design effect. The margin of sampling error may be higher for subgroups. For example, the margin of sampling error is 6.1 percentage points for Democrats and 6.3 percentage points for Republicans and 9.8 percentage points for independents. Sampling error is only one of many potential sources of error and there may be other unmeasured error in this or any other survey.

The number, whatever it is, is still too high but I doubt the claim of “half of adults over 18” is accurate.

Just an FYI, the FMLA itself does not pay you. It only protects your job so you cannot lose it or be replaced while out on leave.
