To be fair, both of his daughters are adults, and more than capable of speaking out against their father's abhorrent behavior. Additionally, they stand to benefit, directly or indirectly from their father's actions. They are also likely to be among the very small group of people that Brett Farve would listen to and could be shamed by. I would not consider them innocent bystandards.

The most amazing part is that they've resolved all of the more important issues and have the time to consider what flags should be allowed to fly at government buildings.

Right? I mean how negligent would it be to prioritize passing an approved flags list while issues that affect their constituents still need attention.

I have no doubt that they being vegan was not intentional and they will crease to be vegan the moment they discover a non-vegan alternative to one of their ingredients.

I'm just guessing here but I would think that cooking would kill off anything picked up from the thawing process.

It's nasty, but not necessarily unsafe.

... paying almost $25 for 3 items

Meanwhile the pic clearly shows the order was for 5 items.

Laura appears to have ordered at a McDonald’s in Australia, given the availability of banana bread on the menu and her reference to the restaurant as “Maccas.”

How do fast food prices in Australia mean that America has failed?

Jules Rogers took a new job at a newspaper in Houston and moved from Portland, Oregon, in 2018.

She was earning 20% more and living in a more spacious apartment, but other costs increased.

She and her husband weren't able to save and they missed parts of life in Oregon, so they returned.

I really appreciate it when the article includes its own TL;DR

... the justices said the court’s rules and principles are, for the most part, “not new.” However, “codification” of existing principles is meant to clear up concerns about the justices operating without oversight.

Sooooo the same failed guidelines that are not enforced and carry zero consequences for selling their judgements? That's what they think will restore trust in their court instead of deepening the image of rampant corruption and politicking?

The first two sentences of the article literally answer your question.

"The Why Files" and "Kutzergart".

If I'm really not ready to sleepy, I find the content interesting. If I am ready to sleep but my brain won't shut down then I ignore the words and I find the voices very soothing and relaxing.

Whaaaaaat? Corporate leaders don't care about honoring costly changes that will fundamentally change their industry when making those changes isn't tied to their compensation and the deadline for achieving them isn't until after they retire or are even dead?

I, personally, am shocked.

Whaaaaaat? Years of saying he was right about everything, acting like he could do no wrong, protecting him from the consequences of his words and actions, and encouraging his narcissism has lasting consequences?

If only they had one or two opportunities to stop him from running for president a second time.

I think that there is something wrong with the "not my job" approach. I believe in the saying "The only thing evil needs to thrive is for good people to do nothing."

Assuming that everyone has shared in your socioeconomic upbringing and therefore has the same access to diverse ideas is flawed.

I am personally inspired by Daryl Davis, a black musician who, through simple conversation, has convinced grown adult Ku Klux Klan members to change their ways and renounce the KKK.

I believe that people should work towards the changes they want to see manifest in the world.
