Under the bills, some kinds of local telecom projects would be approved automatically if a city or town doesn’t rule within a deadline set by Congress.

The tl;dr

Local to where I was living at the time.

Smaller, not one of the big ones that's always getting name dropped in drama

I like to think there was a specific person in Nebraska the author had in mind. The University there had a tap into the ARPANET back in the day and always had interesting projects going in that one wouldn't typically expect in Nebraska.

Here's an Article on the survey I've been seeing referenced lately that shows among the population surveyed, men and women are reporting similar rates of loneliness.

As to why it's being called the male loneliness epidemic, well, I have personal opinions on that. Mostly that problems affecting men are far more likely to get sympathy, attention, and funding. How many times are issues affecting primarily women just hand-waved away as less important?

Have chronic diarrhea so they can't trace a single log back to you.

If he somehow does start getting held accountable for this, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries will twist themselves into pretzels to somehow throw him a lifeline. And it wouldn't even make me assume Schumer or Jeffries are in the Epstein files, I think they're just so cowardly and worthless they'd help Trump without getting anything out of it.

I wonder if they know they are giving up on theaters. Maybe their plan is a minor theater run just for awards eligibility and then leaning on the home streaming market?

Theaters want to turn over movies, just like restaurants want to turn over tables. The theater gets $20/ticket yet whether the movie is 90 minutes long or 190. And that's long enough quite a few customers will think "eh, I'll watch that from home with snacks and bathroom nearby and a pause button".

Roku has a Jellyfin app.

Roku device locked down with parental controls + Jellyfin app connected to your server + a non-admin Jellyfin user account so they can't click all the buttons.

The Roku aoo isn't great for my use because it's stripped down. Maybe a benefit in your case.

We watched Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (1994).

After several scenes with an unnecessarily shirtless and lubed up Kenneth Branagh, I made a bet he was the director. One quick websearch later, confirmed, the man directed himself into many shirtless shots. Well-played, sir.

Hopefully later this week we have time for the new Guillermo del Toro Frankenstein. We'll see if this one is as thirsty for Elordi and Isaac.

For real, half-naked and lubed up Branagh rolling around making full body contact with a fully-naked and lubed up Robert De Niro. Someone out there cites this as their gay awakening and I wish them well.

Would you ever play Russian Roulette? 80% effective means one bullet in a five-chamber revolver, spin, and pull the trigger.

Medical advice is also to not rely only on condoms.

You do you.
