Oh, he's married?

You're looking at it all wrong. It's like having an 8-man highly coordinated platoon with a brilliant commander and amphibious capabilities.
Glockodile ain't got shit.
I remember seeing a documentary about that in the 80s with a guy trying to escape a large city set up to be a maximum security prison. It was called Escape from New York.
They made similar documentary about Los Angeles in the 90s. Interesting stuff.
I was going to be dropping my son off at daycare before work (something I usually didn't do), and my normal routine was to stop at Wawa for breakfast. I stopped, got out, grabbed my breakfast, got back in, and only then remembered that he was in the back. He had been VERY uncharacteristically quiet prior, and I was tired, and I just... forgot he was in the back.
It caused absolutely no harm (I was only in the Wawa for 5-10 min), but it was a very sobering moment. I can definitely understand how it happens.
Seriously. I was like "okay, Brazil is in the right general area, but obviously the wrong shape. Argentina is definitely not there. Chile is along the coast, so I'll allow it. I honestly couldn't say what all the northern countries are, and... wait, what the hell is the north connecting to, that looks like the middle east.
Jesus Christ, that's Africa."
I'll be honest, with the exception of "Keep Us Connected" I absolutely hated the musical episode... except the first time they mentioned that it had affected a Klingon vessel. And then I powered through in the hopes of seeing Klingon musical time, and when it happened, it redeemed the whole thing for me. Better than I could have hoped.
Yup! Which, again, incentivizes those companies to push politicians to make more prisoners.
All you need to do is look where (to whom) that $11k is going to answer the question.
For-profit businesses are expected to do what they can to turn a profit. A business whose profits are often dictated by public policy are expected to bend that policy toward their profits. Elected officials who are dependent on fundraising to be re-elected have an incentive to listen to the will of those businesses in their constituency.
Which is exactly why for-profit prisons should be absolutely, without exception, banned from any free country. It's not a conspiracy to say for-profit prisons create more prisoners, it's an obvious and inevitable consequence.
Edit: before anyone mentions California banning for-profit prisons, the industry still makes plenty of money from the system.
Seriously, the part about him coming in to ask her when a project was finished and eventually yelling that he needs a date sounds like she was waffling, waffling, waffling, and he was asking for a simple answer he could work with.
"I need to know an estimate of when you'll have this portion of the project completed."
"Well, there's this thing that's having problems with this, and we're working through this. This other thing..."
"I understand, but I need a timeline so we can give the other team an idea when to expect it."
"So the thing is, there's this portion of the project..."
"For the... I NEED A DATE! A DATE!"
"That's sexual harassment."
Yeah, I've been reviewing her record because of all the hate, and I definitely don't like a former DA as VP/President, but... her record is surprising good from what I can see. She sponsored a ton of good bills, was fairly left-leaning (for a US politician) on the bills she sponsored, and even while a DA/AG she refused to seek the death penalty and tried to work against racist behavior in police (without actually, you know, holding any of them accountable). She wasn't perfect by any stretch, and she was still a DA who is practically a cop, but she seemed to be one of the better ones (I know, low bar).
I'm not really understanding all the hate she is getting, even from her own side. The amount of "hold your nose and vote for her" seems out of proportion for her record.
And a Senator. And a District Attorney. Elected as both of those, not "hired."
She hasn't been "hired" for anything. Of all the issues to take with her, calling her a "DEI Hire" has got to be the most ridiculous.
What a truly idiotic position to take.
So... I'm not shilling for the military, but....
Coast guard gets 30 days of leave, 3 months of paternity leave, and unlimited sick days.
Just saying.
Edit: to be clear, US Coast Guard.
