That is true. I say this because there is money that flows in through intermediaries(though still illegal, undoubtedly happens), but I also incorrectly conflated monetary support for foreign interests with money from foreign entities - my apology.

I voted third party for my congressional rep. I have the privilege of living in a solid blue district and I did it is a protest, but also because I like the candidate more than the blue candidate. I voted for my favored candidate in the primary, but she lost to a heavily AIPAC funded candidate. I disagree with Israel's actions and the amount of foreign money in domestic elections. I've told very few people this, whether in person or online - more than anything I want it to represent statistical dissent. I would never consider my vote if there were an even remote possibility of the right winger taking the seat.

The gas Giants are huge, like really really huge. Jupiter and Saturn have more than that. The rings from Saturn are probably from moons, but not necessarily colliding, but getting close enough to the planet to reach the Roche Limit.

And he's Hawley. I'm in Missouri and plenty of people here hate his guts. Granted I'm in a city, I hear that from a lot of people in the counties too.

Lulu Garcia-Navarro. I grew to like her when she was on NPR.

I never payed close enough attention, I always thought he looked like Samuel L Jackson in costume

No, that was some guy running for, I think, NY governor, but not actually running - he just wanted to use his platform to bring light to the issue of rent prices. --I had to google It while typing this out - Jimmy McMillan.

Gwynne runs the show at SpaceX, and frankly, she's fucking awesome at her job. The CEO is a blowhard, but Gwynne is calling the shots day to day.

I may be wrong, but I think he's an "adjudicated rapist" because it was a civil matter. Correct me if I'm wrong though, because I'm just parroting something that I've heard.

Not only does it move, but it gets covered by an ad and it has to track your eyeballs on that tile for 5 seconds before it reveals the desktop. That way, you spend a minute watching ads looking for the real desktop.
