This is the answer.
My cat is 18, and she has become extraordinarily picky in the past year. The only thing she will eat reliably is Churu. She gets her medicine mixed in it twice a day, which means that now she wakes me up at 5 a.m. daily to beg for her breakfast.
This is exactly as reasonable as any recipe review I've ever read. Which is why I stopped reading recipe reviews.
I don't necessarily buy him as a serious actor. Mad Men was so well written that I think almost anyone could have been an effective Don Draper. My opinion is that he pulled off about 90% of that role based on his looks. (I think it worked overall because there were so many very talented actors surrounding him.)
That said, I love him as a comedic actor. His SNL appearances are delightful, and I'm always pleasantly surprised when he shows up in comedy shows and films.
I think a lot of comedians are this way, and it makes sense. Most of us have a "work persona" that is not exactly the same as what we would consider our "real" personality.
For a more genuine version Will Ferrell, and just a hell of a story of friendship and overcoming challenges, I heartily recommend the documentary Will & Harper.
Yet
Which honestly seems to be an overwhelming majority of people.
Tech companies took a pretty good predictive text mechanism and called it "intelligent" when it obviously isn't. People believed the hype, so greedy capitalists went all in on a cheaper alternative to their human workers. They deserve to lose business over their stupid mistakes.
I wonder if that's a financially feasible scenario. I assume the National Guard gets some amount of federal funding and maybe access to equipment that a state militia wouldn't have access to.
The Wikipedia article you linked indicates that a large part of what the CSG does is directly in conjunction with the National Guard. If they're toothless without the federal group, then it wouldn't make sense to change the system.
This was my assumption. Or maybe witchcraft.
I have nieces, nephews, and students whom I love fiercely, but I also love that I get to give them back to their parents at the end of the day.
I do not regret my choice in the least. I live a comfortable life and I can afford to do a lot of things that my friends and coworkers who have kids can't afford to do, either financially or emotionally. I would not be experiencing the adventure I'm currently on (living as an expat) if I had to provide a stable home environment for my own child(ren).
Actual journalists tend to avoid anything that appears partisan. Their job is to report the news, not to deliver commentary.
And a 20-year campaign by Republicans against mainstream journalists has left them in a position where even straight factual reporting is considered biased by 50% of voters.
I agree that someone should follow up with these people and get them to really consider how their politics are affecting their own daily lives. But that really needs to be dealt with by pundits and talk-show hosts instead of reporters.
That, and the fact that there just aren't as many undocumented immigrants in the US as Trump and his advisors have claimed. So to stoke fear they need to keep the numbers up. Any innocent, law-abiding, legal residents caught up in their net are acceptable collateral damage (in their view).
One can only hope that in 50 years, Trumpism and mass deportations will be a short-lived historical anomaly like McCarthyism and the Red Scare.
I'll be listening to Nirvana and playing Symphony of the Night in my room. You're welcome to come down the hall to hang out any time.
