Jim Jordan is commenting on Eric Swalwell's sexual misconduct allegations. Jordan was assistant wrestling coach at Ohio State while team doctor Richard Strauss sexually abused at least 177 athletes. Multiple wrestlers testified under oath they told Jordan. He did nothing. He was never charged.
Did I miss the "Usher and Chris Brown are going on tour together " discussion?
This is such a good idea. We should do this in NYC.
"All Chicago Public Schools students now have access to nearly everything the city’s libraries have to offer — including physical items like books as well as extensive digital resources."

I know that real life is making satire extremely difficult. That's why I endorse the NY Times pitchbot, which is going the extra mile to make nerds happy.
Hope my very American answer helps.
I got some talk I can smack about WaHo, but they pay more than minimum server wage and they offer health, dental, eye, and life insurance to their full-time employees. And they don't dick around with hours to make "part-time" employees instead of paying for bennys.
They have their own music. The corner jukebox has a bunch of classic rock and old timey stuff, but it also has a song about raisin toast that honestly

Slaps.
If this was pub culture of the 1950s UK, that might be the closest equivalent. If you go regularly they know you, and if you go occasionally it's nothing like where you normally go.
It is a religious, spiritual, cultural, and social staple for many. It isn't just for going to after the bar, but after church Sunday morning and for a quick snack at lunch and get the local gossip on Tuesdays when Marge worked. Never underestimate the power of the local.
Listen. I worked third shift at a WaHo in undergrad. There's some key things you should know.
If you've ever seen a WaHo employee fight video, they've been fired. WaHo has a zero tolerance policy regarding fights.
That doesn't mean WaHo employees don't fight, but it does mean you shouldn't film them

Do you care about political podcasts? No? Then no.
Stop taking directions from the newly "liberal" former GOP. They want to turn the Dems into Republican-lite, a diet republican with 50% less racism and now part of a healthy balanced war mechanism.
Hassan piker is a fine podcaster if that's your bent, and if it's not shut it off. He's never going to be the Joe Rogan of the left, he's not that ill-informed.
I live in Massachusetts and cannot give a single shit about that race in Maine (except to never hear Susan Collins mentioned again...)
I just logged on for curiosity, as I do once a day every day, and I discovered that the entirety of the "left wing" is on fire.
Right? Tell me how I can enter the same information from five years ago into Google and I can't find the search results that I know exist?
He sold out quite a while ago. He ran on progressive and liberal ideas, got into office, and ran right just as fast as his legs could carry him
Nah he spoke to them directly in the hell he's making the rest of us live in. Eventually, all that shit really does trickle down, right Reagan?
If I needed a primer on the economic situation vis-a-vis chattel slavery (preferably based in Great Britain, but I'll take what I can get), where would I find it?

Ma'am
I will caveat this to say it was usually land disputes. But like with Matthew Hopkins, sometimes it was a power play.
Just as a side note, yes there's a section of road there called Dog/g road, but I cannot find the A anywhere on the map, so it's not much help.
Close-up of an engraved surveyor's list from Joel Gascoyne's 1703 survey of Stepney showing detail for Bethnal Green. A red arrow points to the notation.
Maybe someone on here has a bright idea. I'm looking at Joel Gascoyne's 1703 survey of Stepney. It has a notation that seems to say Mr. Lee church with deg or dog above the word church. The picture below is the specific notation in question. What the hell does it say and/or mean?
Mom, they mislabelled the target list
This message brought to you by the number of institutions who "went paperless" publicly and still had to have everything printed out behind the scenes.
Any recs for female literacy and manuscript culture in medieval England? (For a student, I'm not up on my English context!)
Yes, bring on the cuteness
A government will 💯 lie or prevaricate about military casualties in pursuit of their own aims. They'll do it before, during, and after. I cannot take a conversation with anyone seriously who believes otherwise.
Listen, you're doing great so don't let me interrupt your flow.
If it's going so well, why are US citizens getting a pre-recorded message saying they're on their own in the Middle East?
