Is that comma load-bearing too?

Last I looked into the difference, (in my area) if you planned to stay longer than three years, owning was the cheaper option. Less than that you’d be better off renting. Assuming no big house repairs of course, and no crazy house value changes.

I’ve never seen that many peanuts in a pod before. Vast majority have been two, with the odd triple or rare quadruple.

Also Punxsutawney Phil is the name of the famous groundhog as part of the tradition.

I’m not American, but won’t say every immigration law is right; just that going full-open is an over-correction.

Sailing canoe rigs can be fun, and you might be able to find a decently cheap Sunfish or Laser and have loads of fun.

The plane one is a bit tougher.

Not sure needing any sort of check would be “open borders”, but let’s assume it’s open to anyone who doesn’t have a violent criminal record. Now all the non-violent people with criminal records are fleeing to your country to avoid prosecution. Do you allow them to be extradited?

Do you still have a military to protect your country from others? How do you prevent a foreign nation from just sending enough people over to instigate a coup? Way cheaper than going to war, and they wouldn’t even need to be sneaky or underhanded; just overwhelm the local population and overthrow their government.

Universal healthcare would completely collapse if people can move to a country, get treatment, then go back home. Are you doing a health screening and making sure they have a job and live in the country for a minimum amount of time?

Because no one wants to leave their family and entire home behind just to move to a wealthy country to live on the street as a homeless person

You can bring your family too so that’s a non-issue, and many people would be better off homeless in a wealthy country than making do in a poor one. People will travel within a country to be homeless in the more desirable places, if there’s essentially no boundary imagine how many people that would attract. Especially if the wealthy country continues to have outreach and support programs for the homeless and still enforces laws in the inevitable camps that spring up.

Now you’re arresting loads and people and it’s straining your resources to imprison them all. Do you start deporting people who break certain laws?

Seems like we’re starting to invent all the immigration rules that never used to exist but sprang up out of necessity.

Race is probably a component, but a big one is video of the incident getting to the public. Watching an unambiguous violation instead of reading an account is far more powerful, and removes all doubt of witness reliability.

I love those crunchy cereal marshmallows! I’ve bought them (just the marshmallows) online a few times. It’s been years, so probably time for a treat.

Hopefully this doesn’t break all the great mods that’ve been developed over the years

The frustrating thing is trying to get reviews like this removed. Google is an absentee landlord

Sure, but if almost nobody will do the job for minimum wage except for immigrant workers, should those businesses be allowed to exploit those workers instead of paying the wage they would need to staff their businesses?

Even though the businesses are the “guilty ones” it seems more like a policy issue than a business one, as the business will always do the bare minimum it can get away with. Especially egregious with temporary foreign worker programs. Why have programs that essentially subsidize industries that just exploit minimum wage workers and depress wages? And now racist assholes have a scapegoat in the people accepting the bad deal instead of the people who allow it in the first place.

Oh, guess those people (again, totally not me) were over-thinking it due to the political references. I’m sure they appreciate the explanation.

Can you explain the joke for those who don’t get it (not me, I totally get it and think it’s very funny)

Don’t you need a stimulant for ADHD? I’d think THC would be a bad choice

I recently learned that kangaroos are soft, which surprised me as I always imagined them like weird deer and deer are not soft. I feel like this needs to be a list I can look at somewhere.

Laika is a breed? Thought it was just the USSR space dog’s name.
