Read that as United Atlantic Vultures and did a double-take. Not so far off though.

Lead exposure from shooting ranges has been studied and contributes to aggressive behaviors.
I’d call that a rattlin’ bog
Is there a link to the study being referenced? I couldn’t find any citations. Ocean acidification is worth talking about, but this article is sensational as heck. Constant use of dire language (“safe limit … exceeded”, “crucial threshold … breached”, “safe boundaries … crossed”, “sustainable levels … exceeded”, “close to the danger limit”) with no values explained or interpreted for the reader and only vague references to imminent catastrophe.
Maybe it’s talking about this new NOAA dashboard, it’s hard to tell, but I think this was a much better read:

Did you just turn Success Kid into an angry/upset reaction? Rude!
I was known to yank a power chord or two back in college…
The italics are a nice hint. Good Poe’s Law submission.
I got that advice as well – the explanation given to me was that it’s almost always used incorrectly, so just be safe and don’t. However, I like the way it makes writing more closely resemble natural speech; we usually talk in conjoined clauses rather than complete sentences.
It’s a professional refrigerated salad bar, so I’d expect the same as you’d find in a restaurant. Maybe prep in the morning and dispose/repurpose into dinner in the evening. Such a cool idea, $1300 is a scary investment but it seems amazing.
I’ve been trying to get the semicolon to take off; haven’t had much luck though.
I don’t have experience with it personally, only heard about it from a possibility perspective – apparently prosecutors do a very thorough job screening jurors to make sure that never happens. Just knowing about jury nullification can get you dismissed. I don’t think you’re off the mark with that read, but where I think it comes back from kangaroo court and sov cit land is all jurors have to agree, even one objection to a nullification would stop it; if twelve strangers all agree, there’s probably some merit to it. But, certainly can be abused in the wrong hands.
Right, that’s my point – jury nullification is the mechanism by which juries find that a crime was committed by the letter of the law but the defendent is not guilty.
But following the surface of a sphere causes you to constantly change direction
This is exactly what jury nullification is for
I think you’ve generalized a bit too much. The gender-swapped format was not created for this exact meme, it’s just a jovial commentary on male stereotypes women find unappealing. In this case, the joke isn’t that she saw a stack of random games, they’re all FIFA – did you maybe not notice that? The annoying male FIFA player is a pretty well-established meme at this point.
something we desperately need, like making all political donations illegal.
I don’t know how serious this idea is, but I have questions. Wouldn’t making all political donations illegal favor the rich more than the system already does, especially for small local elections? Could people just gift money to a not-yet-candidate prior to starting any campaigning? If yes, then the person with the wealthiest “friends” wins; if no, where do you draw the line chronologically? Is only cash money considered a donation – are stage appearances fine to “gift” to a political candidate? Can I neutralize a candidate by mailing them cash and reporting them? If no, what is required for them to do with the money?
I think I’d rather just see Citizens United overturned, but I’m very interested in more info on this idea
I was just trying to figure out if that’s industry standard or his “veiled” threats… I’m intimidated and I don’t even work there
Wait – unionizing means giving up stock options? I tried verifying this on [search engine] but not finding anything meaningful, is that real?
A fellow opposum!
