I had the opposite experience at a Catholic public school, though most of the teachers (except the born-again 😒) were careful not to talk about their personal opinions much.

Most of the kids I went to school with were either secular or not very religious, though there were some believers for sure. Our debate topics were randomly assigned, so people often argued for things they didn't believe in.

I agree with your last sentence though, definitely observed that across various different religions.

A sniper that's hired to shoot active threats is a bit different from a rally-goer with a .22 who target shoots once a month.

Kind of annoying that the "contribute" page on the site is actually a donate link. I thought it was info on how to get involved in the project.

Right now this site only covers part of Washington state, USA, so it's not very useful for others yet. That said, I did vote for my area in Canada and included a list of the shitty property management companies nearby.

Out of curiosity, what prompted you to pick something that costs money over something free?

Well, then I guess everyone involved got what they wanted. Are you upset because things didn't go the way they were never going to go? It was obvious from the outset that he would never step foot in prison even outside of this conspiracy to withhold evidence.

"We can't possibly determine the truth in this circumstance because officers of the court and the law both conspired to establish a pre-determined outcome by misusing their authority and resources, so we'll ensure that you can't be charged again."

Maybe cops and lawyers should play by the rules if they want the law to put people in prison.

there is a cap at $5000/MwH

It's MWh (megawatt hours). That's only for wholesale electricity, which is available to retail electrical providers, not consumers. So your utility company can charge you whatever they want, but their price is capped. Funny how that works.

More info about the cap specifically available here. (PDF)

The Macarena and/or the YMCA dance, it's fun for kids to do over and over but harmless.

Hm, I guess I have seen that, but never considered that it could be a high-grossing day. My wife's family would burn us in effigy if we tried to suggest leaving the house during the day so I've never really thought of it much.

If we don't come to Christmas it's as though we've killed the very concept of happiness. We'd never hear the end of it if they found out we went to a movie instead.

They're open on Boxing Day, as stated in the post. It's only usually businesses run by people that don't celebrate Christmas that are open (like Chinese restaurants, and that one gas station run by a Pakistani family in my old rural town that saved my hide in 2012 by being open after I forgot to get gas on Christmas Eve).

No, replacing your HVAC or control systems will not magically fix the engineering issues present in your home/building. You will have to compensate for poor design indefinitely unless you want to demolish and start over.

Maybe we're negotiating for a discount on refurbs, lol.
