On the other end, prevent malicious actors from using identity theft to get credit cards and loans: freeze your credit.

It'll be a minor hassle when you go to get a car loan, and forget that your credit is frozen - but you will be able to temporarily unfreeze it from your phone.

Last operating nuclear power plant.

Which means this one plant provies 9.3% of the state's power generation. It's entirely reasonable to think that cutting that power generation without having other sources to replace it with would be a "bad idea," especially considering how Enron royally fucked California by playing games with power.

Damaging thought patterns are just a part of the problem for many people. Those thought patterns are part and parcel of the landscape of personal relationships you have in your life, and talking to someone outside of that paradigm can give you the opportunity to think differently.

A decent therapist is going to come to the table with tools and skills to share, because they have training and experience. They're not (hopefully) just some random "other person." They'll also be better equipped to recognize the symptoms of specific clinical health conditions, and address those conditions accordingly, whether that means adjusting what kinds of coping skills they recommend to you, or referring you to a psychiatrist for appropriate medication to be used alongside therapy.

I was raised in an area where if you have a problem: deal with it.

"Deal with it." Okay, how? If you don't know how, and you get stuck in a feedback loop, a therapist can help you break out of that loop. Could you perhaps do that on your own? Maybe, and if you can, it may take longer and be much more difficult. There is no shame in getting guidance through the difficult parts of life from people who have expertise in providing such guidance.

They don't have that ability in a civil trial, but could they say that? Something like "Here's the incredibly large amount of compensatory and punitive damages, which we still do not believe will suffice to prevent Trump from repeating this behavior. We believe that only detention will be successful in putting an end to this continuing defamation."

How is this going to impact quick battery swap arrangments?

Two Pizza Hut franchisees, who own hundreds of stores in California, are eliminating their in-house delivery fleets. The labor-gutting strategy has left 1,200 drivers without jobs.

"I feel that there will be a lot of pain to workers as franchise owners are forced to take drastic measures," Walberg said.

If you own hundreds of Pizza Hut restaurants, nobody is "forcing" you to do anything.

Trump didn't even "let him out." Stone got a Trump pardon before he ever saw the inside of a jail cell.
