It’s funny cause the original Memphis is in Egypt

It depends on if you’re handsome or not

Is Russian a race?

They have had these for years at the Texas state fair

Not to be pedantic, but under shelter by the bins could be interpreted as the bins provided shelter to your delivery.

Well. They could just not take his funding.

That’s the thing about the disease … it’s binary. It either exists or doesn’t. If you cure all the cases, there is nowhere to catch it. If you leave a small population with it, then there’s always the chance it comes back. My dad was vaxed for smallpox, but I am not…

Say what you will. He’s out there curing a terrible disease. I could not give a shit if it’s ego driven or not.

Bill gates?

Just wondering if you’ve ever participated in a protest or this is just an academic exercise. In my experience well behaved protests are basically ineffective. It’s true that you can actually end up vilifying the cause in the eyes of people that you’ve inconvenienced.

But that creates social pressure on our leaders to address the problem. Either by compromise with the protests demands or clearing them out by force.

I get that it may block the direct path of an ambulance potentially. But most gps algorithms when they see a ton of stationary phones in the street interpret that as traffic and try to route around it.

At the end of the day, yes there is the small potential for harm to a few individuals, but (hopefully) the benefits to a larger group offset that.

I went to UT and there were protests in the street all the time. It always inconvenienced me and I actually came to blows with a few of the protesters, but they should know that’s a possibility going into it. There’s really no right or wrong here. There’s only large organized group against a few impacted drivers.

Isn’t the inconvenience literally the point though?

Little known fact. Airplanes still use leaded fuel. I’ll bet that the blood levels for all of these families are elevated. Not a great place to raise a kid.
