I have always called a light top with a full zipper to be a jacket, however the people I'm surrounded by insist on calling it a sweatshirt. I'm prepared to be wrong, just wondering if I'm the only one.
There's a Kiwi reggae band called Fat Freddy's Drop, and I got the mp3s of their first album Based on a True Story from a friend not too long after it came out. Later I lost them on an old HD, and when I went to get the album again most of the songs were different versions, and noticeably worse than what I remember. I've been able to track down a few of the old versions over the years but not all of them.
Part of the difficulty is not knowing what the versions I first heard were. They didn't sound live so it's not as simple as trying to find concert versions. Trying to find a specific version of a song can be more frustrating than not knowing what a song is entirely :/

I'm sorry but you're simply incorrect. Bug can be a technical term, but that doesn't also preclude it from also being a non-technical term, because words often have more than one meaning. See also: theory.

Greene ran for re-election after winning a legal challenge to her eligibility based on her alleged involvement in organizing and promoting the 2021 United States Capitol attack, based on the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, which bars people who have engaged in insurrection from serving in Congress. While Greene won by a comfortable margin, this was the worst showing ever by a Republican in the 14th district, and the best performance of a Democrat in this district, being the first time since the district was created that the Democrat received more than 28% of the vote.
If you're asking about the primary, there aren't any numbers on the wiki page (and I'm too lazy to go looking for any more), but it lists the following people who lost the republican primary to her:
Eric Cunningham, sales executive
James Haygood, farmer
Charles Lutin, physician and veteran
Jennifer Strahan, CEO of J. Osley & Co.
Seth Synstelien, educator
At least a couple of those sound a bit more impressive than part-time crossfit coach and full time conspiracy theorist whackadoo. I'm guessing the first time she got in was riding the MAGA reality denial wave, and the second time was mostly because of name recognition. Maybe she'll run out of steam for this election, considering the reception by her own party in relation to the above OP.

I read the article but I still don't understand this. Did she print fake ballots? Did she receive a stack of fake ballots from someone else? Did she send them to people so their votes wouldn't count, or do anything else with the fake ballots other than have them?
I'm not trying to defend her I just have no idea what's going on in this situation.
There's a mountain range that runs essentially down the middle of the entire country, which makes human habitation largely untenable in those areas. No one's coming for the forest there.
Yeah true. I liked a couple of the new characters but I wish they hadn't just kept cycling through new powers. Feels like with the freedom to change the fundamental premise they started with it let them focus on lower hanging fruit stories than trying to create deeper plots with the established story.
In Japanese they don't say yes, they say good. The word for good is ii (sounds like eee). There's not a different consonant or vowel to break up saying "good" over and over, so you just hear iiiiiiiiiiiiii.
I agree there are still a lot of problems with social media, not the least of which is I'm not sure if yt or fb ever adjusted their algos to not immediately start pushing alt right and neo nazi content. But don't forget that the suicide rates are also correlated with a bunch of other bad shit, like growing income inequality and healthcare spending, loss of 3rd places, rent hikes, etc.

I can't quite tell what that means from the wiki article-- sounds like he may have been getting people into the US bc they couldn't get visas to go. I have a much different reaction to that than I would if the trafficking involved the other reasons people usually traffick.

Unfortunately most of this country is too stupid to vote for him. All you have to do is call him a "radical socialist" and morons would be falling over themselves to vote for his opponent.
His supporters do as well, as you can see when Jordan Klepper talks to those wearing t-shirts that say "trump that bitxh" or "Hillary sucks but not like Monica"
